There are way less people playing now than when EVE was at its peak and ISK buying is more popular than ever now that it's CCP that's selling it.
Did you have an actual point to make?

There are 86,400 seconds in a day. You just saved one of them by typing 'u' instead of 'you'.-á Congratulations, dumbass!

Yea, the point is that your nostolgic view is incorrect and at least now, people buying isk are buying it in a way that benefits CCP and players (PVErs, like me) instead of some botter's private bank account. Hmm, the only ones who could really miss those days are the botters themselves... So, what exactly were you doing between 2003 and 2006?
Your prejudiced "plex is pay to win" view blinds you to reality. Plex is "pay to avoid grinding" for sellers and "WOW, someone is giving me real gametime in exchange for my excess imaginary money" for people like me. In other words a fair trade. |

Mr Epeen,
you're forgetting that most of that illegally sold ISK came from botters and people who gave out their account info to buy ISK. The result of the latter was constant posts about hacked accounts, which turned out to be people who illegally bought ISK from shady sources.
Ask yourself, when was the last time you read a post about compromised accounts ?
I think we're much better off these days.
Also, can someone explain what this thread is about?-á (Relax ! I'm just quoting Holgrak Blacksmith here.)
When life gives you lemons, swap letters and poof: melons, solemn melons.

But is selling customers legit ISK the solution? RMT is RMT whether it's from a shady third person site, a 'legit' third party gambling site, or the company that runs the game.
The problem wasn't fixed by CCP seeing dollar (kr+¦na?) signs in their dreams and taking over the RMT business. The problem would have been fixed by figuring out how to remove RMT. Period. There were plenty of solutions that would have worked to better the game and only one that screwed the game but put a lot of money in the CCP coffers.
Greed is good.

kind all off topic here but w/e
i think epeen was really trying to get the point across of how eve lost its edge and harshness by allowing plex into the game. ccp could have fought the isk sellers and they did. but bieng able to buy chars and sell plex takes the grind of the game away. thus removing the risk vs reward aspect of eve. but please lets get back on topic

I remember i went to cinema to watch a story about John James "Rambo".
Oh yeah, cool story from Eve's perspective. I found contract once where guy was trading 10 PLEXs for 10 Hulks. I did succesfully complete that order. Did move hulks from Jita to Amarr and then 10 PLEXs back to Jita. |

when suroken was the place to be, so full they removed the belts so the place wouldn't lag. And in Irjunen when PI came out the place was so busy they didn't allow PI in system.
I miss the old CNR model where it had the giant launchers on the front. Oh and the shield boost effect being a bubble around the ship. and the sensor booster effect, like ripples in a pond. now it is just like shiny lines like what!?

There was no API and everyone actually enjoyed undocking to go "scout" based on 30 mins average data from The in game map.
There are good ships
And wood ships
And ships that sail the sea
But the best ships are
Spaceships
