Tbh the right way to improve EVE is to hugely increase ISK sinks that don't effect me, and eliminate the ones that do.

Yes we all know the clone upgrade cost is an ISK sink. Now if the sink is added to, spread out or just removed, across other forms of ISK sinks, like cost to install a manufacturing job or something. It does not matter.
The only thing the clone upgrade cost does is discourage PvP. That is it, outside of the sink. And because it discourages potential explosions and stuff dying, etc... it itself causes inflation. If the clone upgrade cost was removed you would see a lot more combat happening and in smaller ships.
Because you can only take so many skill points with you that matter when boarding a ship, it in a way would close the gap a bit more between the vets and the young players.
It is a win win situation. So please grab CCP and convince them to make this change. It in no way makes the game more hard core like some of you like to brag about. It is just one of the mechanics that the game has outgrown.
You know I was just thinking that high skilled veteran players don't have enough advantages over low-skilled newbs. This would help widen the gap nicely.

Sounds good. Let's do it. Life should be precious.

clone costs are stupid
I can repair my giant spaceship that's the size of a small island for free but have to pay tens of millions to update a clone
I can get my 2 ton car fixed for a few hundred dollars but treating a cancer the size of my thumb can cost thousands of times more than that.
Oh look costs aren't directly proportional to mass

Want a free clone? Join a spaceholding alliance. What is your reasoning behind this change being null player owned station exclusive?
Jump clone costs can be set to zero already?
Yeah actually it would be a nice feature if player-owned stations could offer the facility to give free clones at the expense of the station owner. That would genuinely promote PvP, maintain the ISK sink and provide a legitimate reason to actually own a station.
