I know most eve players are home every night and have access to their beloved high speed internet. For some we are business travelers trotting the globe to make a living. Others are busy at their office and do not have access (fire wall) on their company network.
I like EVE because even when I am overseas working I can still gain skills. My problem and that of other workers is that we often don't have available high speed internet for those huge patches or network access.
I beg you CCP take EVE Gate to the next level and allow skill cue updates and market transactions so players can use their web browser to access those services.
XOXOXO

Right.
They're encouraging you to play the game, where you might stay and make some ISK towards PLEX so you can continue to play without paying a sub fee.
Therefore, they want your money. Dirty heretical mud-child, reporting in. // Throwing one's hands up in the air and crying 'cal-matar nonsense!' seems to be the new dismissive these days when someone is being neither relevant nor dignified. |

and last time i checked plex costs more than regular subs... meaning they'd rather you pay for your sub with plex because some where, some one gave them more money than you would have. |

Might I suggest getting a better job, if it is that much of a concern for you. Any Spelling, gramatical and literary errors made by me are included free of charge.

It can't be done. It's an impossible task, else CCP would have done it already, since it's so obvious.
But in a parallel universe you'd be able to do this in Eve Gate. In a perfect world you could do these things from within Eve Gate:
Chat with players in game: Corp, the local where your character is and so on Trade Create contracts Start indy and science jobs Interact with your inventory Manage corporations Do PI ... EGD: If you jettison what's in your brain, at least expect can flipping. |

Making any kind of web interface to manage market orders, would just flood the market with bots. I guess a web based interface to manage your skill queue could be okay, but the would be close to the same thing a removing the skill queue, it would not take much afford to expand applications like evemon to automatically update you queue. So why go through the trouble of making the web interface when it's easier to just remove the skill queue?.
You do have some options to manage you character while away from home, eve does run off a memory stick. You can use software like hamachi to VPN trough firewalled networks, and connect to your computer at home and access eve using vnc. Playing eve using VNC does not really allow you to do anything but managing market orders and setting skills, but it works, and it solves the problem of downloading updates with limited bandwidth. |

... Not all PLEX generated are bought with money. They're also awarded through multiple promotions. My point was more along the lines that 'CCP wants money' would be valid. But the notion 'CCP wants YOUR money' by making you log in is fallacy.

Yup, it does not matter whether you play or not. Your account needs PLEXing no matter whether you actively play or not. One could even argue CCP does not want you to play, so they can cut costs on their server hardware and optimization. Less players = less costs = more profit. Amirite?
CCP had originally planned (and this was stated officially in several places - just too lazy to dig it up) to allow changing your skill queue in EVE Gate. That was like 2 years ago. It has been asked for many many times since then, but nothing has been stated to the best of my knowledge. It's likely that either they are too busy working on Dust 719 (see what I did here?), or they never intended to go through with it. Either way, I don't think we're gonna see it this year for sure, maybe never. |

LOL a better job, I am an oilfield engineer that works less than 6 months/year and am paid fairly well. Tax free I might add. I travel the world all expenses paid and stay in some very nice hotels. Problem I have is that even fancy hotels tend to have bandwith limits.
So no a better job is not the answer. Honestly I don't use the market except to purchase items really, I just want to be able to update my skill cue without having to download huge updates. |

I did try that however since I am away from home for extended periods my home computer either restarts itself or a long power failure drains the UPS battery. I have it password protected at boot up and don't want to share my password with anyone as I backup business files on it.
Thanks for the constructive suggestion. |
