Greetings!
I know when the full "fozzie-sov" goes live, it was mentioned that the SBU BPO's were going to be removed, however I'd like to request that the BPO's and items not be removed. These items, while they will become obsolete, serve as part of Eve's history.
From the blog post it states that owners of these BPO's will be compensated, however you can't really compensate time and effort put into those BPO's.
I would like to request that these remain in-game, and not removed. Take them off the market as a seed-able BPO, but let those who own the BPO keep them; much like the mine BPO's.
As a collector, it does bother me that an item that I worked on will go -poof- since I worked at also putting the time into research it. I'm sure I'm not alone with other fellow collectors not wanting to see items that they have collected over time just go away.

While i see your position i suspect that there are more people who would like to be reimbursed for their BPOs... Maybe reimburse a pile of isk and either turn the BPOs into a dud or replace them with some kind of "marker".
My owner used to have a BPO? |

If you want to keep history , CCP could put some SBU on gates somewhere like monuments without having garbage in the database.

I'd rather keep the. BPO to be honest, I put a lot of time into it to just have it removed. I take pride in my collection and all the time I have put into it. Eve is a game that's all about time, sure they can give us the money back, how are they going to reimburse you for all the time you put into that blueprint? They can't.
This isn't something I'm alone in, there are a lot of other players that are collector's as well, take Entity for instance, I feel him as well when items he's worked hard to get and put time into getting them for them to just dissapear.
Dont get me wrong, I'm all about changes, games evolve and change, which is good, but I'd like to retain that history. If not, them why do we still have the mine BPOs (I have put a lot of isk aquiring the 2 Mine BPOs that I have as well). They are out there but they just aren't seeded anymore, which is fine, they can do the same with these as well, just take them off the market as a seedable item.
Wouldn't that be a reasonable agreement?

I'm more than happy for you to keep yours if thats what you want and if that becomes an option I have no problem with that.
Personally I have no sentiment where assets are concerned. Considering the number of these things that must be in circulation at the moment I would rather get something back on the BPOs I own now when the ISK is of some use to me rather than have them rotting in a can waiting for some distant point in time when they might achieve "rarity" status.
EDIT: My very negative feelings towards Dominion Sov might also have some bearing on this, I freely admit that.

How about the BPO holders get reimbursed, and also find something waiting in their redeem queue, like we got for hull tanking certificates? |

I still have that,heh, but I would actually be fine with that, have some sort of recognition or work you put in to an item. The BPO itself is only what? 250mil seeded? Which is pretty much nothing IMO. But you then still had to invest actual work and time on that bp.
Maybe also a possible option to keep or get the isk back rather than just plain removing it? So thoes who aren't attached to items like collectors can get their isk, while those who do can keep it? I'd think that would be reasonable as well. Giving players that option.

why remove the SBUs? Let them in game as historical item but unanchorable anywhere. |

Agreed, they should be left in-game as a historical item!
I still do not want these to go away after putting actual time and work into them. I don't need the 250mil back, I just want to keep the BPO that I take pride in my collection. Please keep it in-game. <3

Mines, for example, can still be produced today, even though they are useless.
A seeding price refund on the BPOs and their conversion to some type of "relic" item could be another option. They wouldn't be blueprints then, though.

yep, leave the BPOs ingame, allow players still to build them for whatever reason they like but solely remove their anchorability in space. Why not? |

Yea, they can be made into relic or commodity but it wouldn't be the same, I agree there. And yes I use the mines as a perfect example. They are still in-game and serve as a piece of eve history.

+1, but I'd also remove the seeding as well since they will be obsolete. But leave the ones that players have currently keep them; just as they did with the mines.
250mil is nothing IMO, which is the NPC seeding price; I'd rather keep the BPO than have the ISK back.

IIRC when CCP has removed things in the past they sometimes put up NPC buy orders to buy them back, but didn't force you to sell them. Why could these not be done this way as well? Yes, researched BPO's not being sellable, but I'm sure that shouldn't be too hard to make them all sell at default price? Is CCP reimbursing them for their ME/PE levels as it stands? If not I don't see why having them all be able to be repackaged so they could be sold would be a problem.

So I am not entirely sure on this, it does not mention the BPO's that have been already researched since it mentions "Unresearched BPO's"
Quote:At the same time, we will begin the process of phasing out SBUs and their blueprints from the game. NPC buy orders will appear for SBUs and un-researched SBU blueprints so that players can choose to recoup some of the value of their SBU stock at their own pace. After a few months of voluntary buyback we plan to convert all SBUs to TCUs, SBU blueprints to TCU blueprints, and remove the legacy market entries for these types.
So what's going to happen with this BPO that I have researched? Obvisoully I can't sell it back, nor would I want to, but I don't really want it to be converted over since I put work into it and I'd like to see it retain it's history still.
So what's going to actually happen here? Especially with the BPO's that have research on them? I'm sure there are other collectors out there that still don't want to see something they worked on getting just go away like that. And I already have a TCU BPO as well, I have no use also for a 2nd BPO.
So what's going to happen? :/
I know as a collector I'd like to keep the SBU BPO ...

This and change the BPO description (if not already done) so it state they are useless. I know it's stupid but just that is like 300 whine thread about them being dodged. There would still be 300 others but that's less than the total 600 without that change. |

They did this with the Mine BPO's and there are some others IIRC, so why not do the same with these as they do serve historical pieces? I say to not convert them over to be honest, keep them as they are, make them not seeded, build-able, but not useable anywhere (as the dev blog states, if attempted to anchor, it will be destroyed instead).
I'm still stumped why they are being converted to be honest ...
