They should make it opt-out. What this means is that when you get podded, you are immediately and automatically bought an up-to-date clone (the clone which is closest to your amount of skillpoints) as long as you have the isk. If you do not have the isk you get a series of warnings. To preserve the choice of choosing to buy/not buy a clone you can add an option where you turn off this automatic opt-in feature. This gives everyone the same choice as they have now, just reverses the default option.
Default options have a very powerful effect on choice and more than 90% of Eve players will just leave the auto udpate feature on both because they are lazy and it is beneficial. The bitter vets who insist on making everything as difficult as possible can just turn the auto update off and update it themselves to feel 'hardcore'. This will make life easier for almost everyone and keep it the same for those who hate change. It will also eliminate threads like this and reduce the amount of people petitioning CCP because they lost skill points. |

Just out of curiosity how much did you lose?
I mean it's kind of hard for me to sympathize since I don't lose that many med clones, and when I do my first reaction is to buy a new one before I even check my own losses... I thought spending those few seconds zoomed in on your broken capsule had that effect on everybody.
also same for me
always check your clone regulary |

Go back to WoW or Hello Kitty Online, or where ever the hell it was you came here from that lets you die endlessly and repeatedly without any penalty. I've lost SP due to low med clone once. My loss of 100k SP was enough to make me pretty rabid about checking my clones. I bet you will be as well, now. Learn from your loss and move on.
No sympathy here. Disclaimer: My opinion does not necessarily reflect that of my corp or alliance. My opinion is my own, and if you don't like, that is your problem. |

Failure to clone is not reasonable grounds for stopping loss of SP, besides you only lose something like 20% at max on the difference between your clone and current SP.
1mil is a drop in the bucket no more than a month if that in skill training. even less with just 2 characters. |

Couple of problems with your post, there. No matter how old the other person is, it's YOU who agreed not to share your account. And just because the person you share it with couldn't sign a contract, doesn't make them not "people" for the purposes of the TOS, which you would still be in violation of. Is anybody going to ban you for letting your kid play a toon on your account? I doubt it. But your "technically" explanation is flat wrong.
Also, a License Agreement operates under different laws than a normal contract, although a license can be part of a contract. If minors couldn't be held to TOS or EULA's, then nobody could get banned from any website for anything as a minor, and you go and get your kid brother to swear on club penguin and see how that goes for you. |

Granted the EULA states it as "Made on behalf of" and not "shared with" ... but seeing as it's "your account that you made so your kid could play" ... it's still "Shared" (though not in the "You can play at X time, and I'll play at Y time" sense)
From Here One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia |

The quality of the shiptoasting in this forum has been on the decline for a while. It's more about a lack of options than any sort of outstanding quality to the thread itself.
Also, all the ISD are probably busy putting out the rage indiuced fires in Feedback and Issues and GD MAMBA is recruiting. -áWhen other folks are whining about a lack of content, we go out and create it. The case of Shrodinger's Hotdropper |

Most of you guys are way off. Per EULA you can not share your account, but there are exceptions to this, Parent or Guardian, Married, or have a power of attorney.
to sum if up, if you can legally sign, on that persons behalf or they can you, the EULA no share policy can not be applied No matter how much you scrub, how hot of water you use,-áyou can't wash shame! |

I think you should never lose SPs for any reason.
I would like to see the end to clone upgrading altogether and have them institute a new ISK sink to take its place like requiring all ships to use fuel (except noobie ships and perhaps those types of ships a noobies would need to get started in EVE).
1. if you died you would still lose implants so as to not harm that industry.
2. This adds player based industry (making fuel) while removing NPC industry (upgrading clones).
I leave "types of ships noobies would need", undefined because it would take experimentation to find the proper classifications of ships to add to the list. Yawn,-á I'm right as usual. The predictability kinda gets boring really. |

this is sort of heresy, but I've never really seen what the clone mechanic adds to the game.
that said, only lost SP once I think (don't podjump in an alpha clone folks). |

The EVE community these days are all about being douchy. Feel free to report any trolls. It is true though that EVE belongs one of those few games where people "Like the threat". Any change to that might make the game feel wrong because there would be no threat or thrill of not getting podded.
As for the suggestion, I agree on the point that it is funny that you have notifications for various stupid things whereas there are no notifications about insufficient SP coverage on the clone. If it takes a 3rd party tool like EVEMON to remind one, then something is wrong.
Yes, you have to be vary about everything in this game. One person is right though. EVE and like other MMORPGs, you should always have your password to yourself. There's simply too much that can go wrong with you're not on your char. Using tablet, typoes are common and I'm not going to fix them all. |

It's not an isk sink if players are making the stuff. I think people should just pay more attention to things. This post was lovingly crafted by a member of the Goonwaffe Posting Cabal & proud member of the popular gay hookup site, somethingawful.com |

but as long as i can turn off the red-flashy-skill-queue-thingy, then sure.
