All I got from this is that the OP is jelly that one of his corp mates had sufficient IRL funds to be able to finance the purchase of plex and thus buy shinies that the OP couldn't.

Thats a good business plan.
It's a very good business plan. If even some of the players that use Plex to fun their accounts simply stop playing the Eve economy would shrink.
Also, I'm not sure why you think that CCP are giving away 'free' time. They don't. Plexes are not free.
Now I don't pretend to be an expert, but people who want to make statements about the state of the Eve Economy need to realise that there are full time, professional economists working for CCP, before making brash, unresearched, baseless arguments based on impulsive and incomplete understanding of the problem. |

LOL, beat me to it. Also, inflation is NOT bad for newbies. In any MMO, if things cost a ton, there is always some raw lowbie mat that can be farmed for outrageous amounts of cash. Currently, it's name is scordite.
Freedom of speech: run into a restaurant and scream (bad words for racial subgroup). Find yourself thrown into the street. Run into your place of employment, do the same, and see how long you're employed (unless you work for the white bedsheet association). You can do the same in a public park, and not end up in prison- THAT is what "freedom of speech" means.
Hint: these boards are owned in their entirety by CCP- your speech is only as free as they say it is. |

Taranius,
You have leapt right over the main motivation of your argument: you mentioned that your friend can afford much nicer ships than you. This implies that you think frigates are not nice ships. A pox on you! You should enjoy the power and beauty of your frigate.
If you don't have enough ISK to blow up a dozen frigates a week, learn how to make more ISK.

LOL fail. Everyone already pointed out the main flaw in your post, but also Plex doesn't punish the RL poor. It helps people who are good enough to get 500m a month but can't afford $15 a month. Just saying. |

This is what the OP wants to do. No more player bought plex to sell on market for what they deem to be a competitive price. But to have CCP sell plex straight as isk and have that isk vanish from the game.
This would lead to CCP not making any money from Plex and giving away game time for your game time spent making it at some isk faucet.
Bad idea is bad. Plex is not a faucet. Just makes people suck on real faucets harder like incursions, missions, bounties. Better sinks are possible without gutting a good money source for CCP. The war deck cost boost to 50m is an example. |

I've always thought of it this way: selling a PLEX means a stranger is paying you ~450 mil ISK in order for you to pay their subscription that month. |

I would never dream about not posting constructively "A genius throws a Molotov cocktail and soon realizes that he's going to die choking in a maze of smoke and flame. A hero drinks a Molotov cocktail and soon realizes that if he does a split in midair, he can hit twice as many zombies per kick. Drunk hero wins again, wusses." ~Cracked.com |

So what I would like to know is if it is considered constructive If I suggest the OP is educated with a cattle prod Any Spelling, gramatical and literary errors made by me are included free of charge.

~Faucets are anything that creates value in the form of ISK or Product out of thin air ~Sinks are anything that takes value away without a return in product or ISK
i'll let you figure out where they are in this game becuase there are many and they are varied. they are also sacred cows that CCP must be careful in dealing with for the wrath of internet spacepilots is quick to attract and ugly to witness.
the only other way to do it is more ships need to explode becuase in the ships and mods is inherent ISK value. when those ships and mods get destroyed that value is erased.
hope this helps.
You don't get it.
