Are you that dense?
What's next... free insurance? free ships?
Seriously... where do you get off making such outlandish ideas over something you obviously do not understand?
At least the people who complain about high cost/high sp clones have a rational argument.
Yours is just utterly off the wall.
And to top that off your in EVE Uni member.
I would have thought the first thing they taught you was you don't fly what you cant afford to lose.
It's more to it than that... EVE is about risk vs cost.
Every time you go PVP your taking a risk... to offer free clones removes the risk and makes the whole affair more like WOW and less EVE.
You want WOW That bad? Quit... and go play WOW.

Invest some SP in reading, dumbass, he's talking about clone cost FOR those people that have lots of SP not ships! Every time someone over 70 million SP gets podded, it costs 15+ million to get a new clone. Getting podded can happen when you go through the wrong gate...
Having clone costs so high makes PvP a very undesirable experience, even when using jump clones. I don't think high SP characters, like reformed carebears, should be punished because they've played the game so long.
If you can't handle the threat of losing your SP's because of expenses... you should learn to play smarter.
That makes you the Dumbass here... not me.
EVE should be a game of challenges and risks... not "hello kitty online"
When you PVP... you should put your char's sp's on the line with the rest of us.
Making it "free" would make the whole cloning business pointless.
Top that off with the fact that larger SP clones while expensive... wouldn't take much to fund with just a bit of ratting... or some missioning.
If your that hard-pressed for ISK... your seriously screwing up. (15 Million? please... I make that in a single level 4 and then some... cry me a damn river)
PVP Should NEVER be free.... or very cheap... it should require effort... and hard work.
Practice... and experience makes it cheaper... but that should be earned... not given.

Prices are about right for the lower tiers, it does get ridiculously expensive at the high-end.
A single lost pod costs several days of subscription (1mo@350M), it is OK for T3 which at least offers some bling while losing days but a random smartbomb?
- Clone upgrade upon moving to higher tier should recoup some/all of previous installment.
- If a bunch of bears want to try to show teeth and can't get a jumpclone, perhaps adjusting JC requirements is a better path or even a complimentary JC courtesy of one of the militias?
- If a person is "forgetful" then hopefully he will learn his lesson, at least you get a second chance whereas forgetting your seatbelt in the real world rarely offers that luxury.
No to removal. Yes to higher tier adjustment.
I'm open to higher tiered adjustments as highlighted... but I cannot deny the fact that higher SP counts should indicate more experience and practice in the art of affording expensive toys...
Carebears who never PVP Before with that kind of level of SP would be pretty bloody rich enough to afford a few screw ups... even should have JC's by then... of which are easy to get thanks to a few JC corps.
