Terranid Meester Tactical Assault and Recon Unit	Posted - 2009.08.31 02:26:00 - [1] Gold! Would also add something new to the economical side of eve. What do you think?
Aniel Zaar Gallente Light of Orion	Posted - 2009.08.31 02:51:00 - [2] Not supported. -^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^ By the way, I am an Ishtar and T2 sentries fan. Fight to make the sentry damage rig work for all drones.
De'Veldrin Minmatar Special Projects Executive	Posted - 2009.08.31 03:25:00 - [3] Originally by: Terranid Meester Gold! Would also add something new to the economical side of eve. What do you think? I think you should stop posting now and back away from the keyboard. Gold...seriously. Are you stoned or something? --Vel Jesus loves you. Everyone else thinks you're an asshat.
Herschel Yamamoto Agent-Orange	Posted - 2009.08.31 06:49:00 - [4] Does this proposal provide any advantages that your wallet does not? I don't see any, and I can't really imagine any that would justify such an odd system, and as such I don't support it.
Caelum Mortuos Gallente Zero G Research and Development	Posted - 2009.08.31 07:59:00 - [5] Why?
Omara Otawan	Posted - 2009.08.31 08:10:00 - [6] Not needed. Just like in the real world, you can buy various goods / minerals to store your isk. It makes no sense, but if it makes you feel better buy up all the tritanium you can get your hands on. Or if you wanna get close to the gold, buy platinum
John Caffeine	Posted - 2009.08.31 09:13:00 - [7] Not supported. If you need to "hide" your isk, go buy plexcards or transfer it to a banking alt. Alternativly, you can send it to me and I'll keep it safe for you...
Julian Lynq	Posted - 2009.08.31 11:12:00 - [8] +4 axes /w magic find !! ftw.. ?
Terranid Meester Tactical Assault and Recon Unit	Posted - 2009.08.31 12:10:00 - [9] Edited by: Terranid Meester on 31/08/2009 12:12:40 Originally by: Herschel Yamamoto Does this proposal provide any advantages that your wallet does not? I don't see any, and I can't really imagine any that would justify such an odd system, and as such I don't support it. The advantage would be that if you somehow got your account hacked, all your isk isn't just magically siphoned off (as long as you store it in safe place). As an item gold would allow you to get back the exact amount of isk that you put into gold when you resell it to the npc banks (unlike plexes and faction items whose price is subject to market conditions). Possibly you could do other things with gold. Plus pirates love gold. Originally by: De'Veldrin I think you should stop posting now and back away from the keyboard. Ditto for you

Ditto for you Whats to stop said hacker from getting your gold? Go back to WOW where you came from. I've never had a problem... course I don't buy isk either. ========================= CEO of Shadow Cadre http://www.shadowcadre.com =========================

Possibly you could do other things with gold. Doesn't CCP return your stuff if a hacker gets into your account and steals your things? Besides, they can steal the gold just as easily as they can steal the isk - private contracts are wonderful things. And no, you couldn't do other things with it - an isk-equivalent asset has no interesting economic features whatsoever. It'd be a poor substitute for cash.
Nidhiesk	Posted - 2009.08.31 15:33:00 - [13] at this point, stop play eve and go play wow. they got Gold and ****ty gameplay
Tyler Lowe DROW Org Brotherhood of the Spider	Posted - 2009.08.31 15:58:00 - [14] There are already precious commodities that you can invest in and store. There is no need for this. If you are concerned that your account may be compromised: 1. Do not visit websites that conduct sales of isk or other in game items for real world money. It is not only a violation of the EULA, it's plain foolish from a security standpoint. 2. Do not visit external links from the Eve forum unless you know and trust the destination site. 3. Do not give out your account information, to anyone, for any reason. 4. Do change your password periodically. These are all things that should be common sense and provide plenty of security for you account without resorting to investment in commodities to shelter your assets from hackers. Not supported.

Added to this list: 5. Don't use the same username/password for forum sites, etc, that you use for Eve. --Vel Jesus loves you. Everyone else thinks you're an asshat.
Alun Hughes United Amarr Templar Legion Fidelas Constans	Posted - 2009.08.31 16:45:00 - [16] Would increase the cost of amarr ships Not supported

De'Veldrin Minmatar Special Projects Executive	Posted - 2009.08.31 19:17:00 - [18] Originally by: Alun Hughes Would increase the cost of amarr ships Not supported I hadn't thought about this at all. Is it too late to change my vote to yes? --Vel Jesus loves you. Everyone else thinks you're an asshat.

Xing Fey	Posted - 2009.09.01 10:44:00 - [20] Edited by: Xing Fey on 01/09/2009 10:44:14 Protip: a fiat commodity will behave no different from a fiat currency. Learn 2 economics. (also, NPC sell/buy orders totally deform everything here) If you really must have 'gold' consider this wonderful thing called "Megacyte".

Nekopyat	Posted - 2009.09.01 15:54:00 - [21] If we were going to have something like this, I would rather see a combination of hard currency and currency trading. If the factions hate each other so much... why do they all have the same currency?

If the factions hate each other so much... why do they all have the same currency? Because the last thing they need is for everyone to make there own bloody money and frak everyone else up with exchange rates. Lets not touch Pandora's box ok? ========================= CEO of Shadow Cadre http://www.shadowcadre.com =========================
Sazuka Kirr Trans-Solar Works Rooks and Kings	Posted - 2009.09.01 17:56:00 - [24] Originally by: Terranid Meester Gold! Would also add something new to the economical side of eve. What do you think? Like high end moon minerals?

In that case I want to be super-ninja/wizard/elf with wings and a +5 bazillion mega death ray sword. And the really tight leather clothes. --Vel Jesus loves you.

Alizandro Goderaski Minmatar Broski Enterprises	Posted - 2009.09.01 20:08:00 - [28] I think y'all just got trolled.
