y can't we train multiple account??
You can, if you actually have multiple accounts. Can you think of a game that lets you play/train several characters from the same account at the same time?

isn't it normal for any MMO that u have alts???
Unfortunately yes.
Quote:
eve is the only game that doesn't want u to get alts .
Are you kidding me?! EVE encourages alts like there's no tomorrow. 
Quote:
in all other MMO , if your bored u can go and try an alt in different faction (even in wow where u can change faction even in pvp server (u just change server))
You can do the same thing here. Just change characters. The point you're missing is that, unlike those other games, you train in EVE 24/7 by setting a skill. That is the equivalent of loggin in on another character and playing it in other games. To do the same in EVE, just pick another character and start training it.

in eve my main in caldari and the first toon i made was gal..(whatever) , so if am bored from missile and shield tanking i can't go drones + armor tanks Caz my alt can't train skills so he is still using the nob ship
…or you can train drones and armour tanking on your caldari.

My Caldari main has excellent missile and drone skills because I took the time to train them :)
I'm caldari and I can't use missiles… I also suck at shield tanking.
Oh, and as an addendum to the "change faction" complaint — you don't need an alt to change factions in this game. Get your head out of the "race/class/alignment" mindset and stop believing you're limited in what you can do. If you want to try something, just go do it — the door is wide open.

lvling in eve = making ISK.
No. There are no levels.
Quote:
skills != lvls
Correct. There are no levels.
Quote:
caz u can play and not train your skills and train your skill without playing.
in ISK:
u need to play to make ISK.
Incorrect. You can make ISK without playing. Also, there are no levels.
Quote:
will am a nob and am still learning basic skills and need couple of months to start experimenting.
Ugh… Yes, starting with learning skills is a good way to optimize. It's a thoroughly useless way to play EVE, though. If you actually want to play the game, you should wait a while with those skills until you know what you want and what you need. Nothing will make you bored of EVE faster than spending your first couple of weeks training learning skills.
Quote:
alts make u try the different races and diced what kind of game play u want, so u won't get bored as fast.
And for that reason you don't actually need alts in EVE (or, well… it's rather the opposite: you need alts in EVE, but not for those reasons) — you can do it all on one character.
Again: take everything you've learned from other MMOs — especially the fantasy kind — and throw it in the bin. It does not apply here. If you've played Planetside, then some tiiiiiiny details may be retained, but not enough to matter. There are no levels that restrict you. There are no races to restrict you. There are no classes that restrict you. There are no alignments that restrict you. You are free to make any and every choice you would like to make and run with it. It's all your choice.
Oh, did I mention that there are no levels?

What's somewhat silly about the 'defenders' of this obvious money grab .. is the claim that some how the critics of it are being selfish.
How is it a money grab?
Or, rather, so what if it's a money grab? It's how MMOs work — why do you expect CCP to do it any differently than everyone else?

A tired argument.
What rationale do you use for NOT allowing players to train any or all of the characters they pay for simultaneously?
So what if it's tired? It's the industry standard for MMOs. Why do you expect CCP to act differently?

there's no business or technological reason to prohibit the training of more than one character per account, and the excuses for prohibiting this have been weak at best.
…and you still haven't answered the question: why do you expect CCP to act any different than the rest of the industry in this matter?
