Just out of interest... CCP wouldn't be so silly as to give every account a redeemable gift of 3 plex, like they've got up on Sisi right now would they?
Now that would make for an interesting bubble :)
How many new buddy accounts are going to be made in the next few days just in case...

Err, you may want to check out the sticky on General discussion:
Quote: Abusing the Buddy System is considered an exploit and will not be tolerated. Incidents will be handled on a case by case basis and action taken may include bans for all accounts involved and/or confiscation of ISK and items.
Abuse includes, but is not limited to: farming gifts [...]

I didn't say anything about exploiting them... in fact I could use another couple of mining toons, especially if the plex price crashes and I can sustain a couple of more accounts ;)
...but even CCP wouldn't do something crazy like give everyone 3 plex - right?

3*300000 = 900000PLEX*15Ç = 13,500,000Ç
Sure, it's just ~13.5mÇ, why not?

there is yet another option which is at least as likely.
this being ccp deciding they made all enough money and shut eve down and all live a happy life at the beach. |

3 free PLEX?
Sure, why not. With the expectation being that people will convert at least some of them to Aurum and buy up all those crazy "I'm With Stupid --->" T-shirts for their avatars.
If CCP had been clever, they would have struck a deal with "Victoria's Secret" to digitally copy the lingerie and put that kind of "clothing" in all major trade hub stations.
Or be a real bastard and just have it available in only one store... in Jita...Saturdays only.

Stick a 90-day expiration date counter on each and every PLEX. Upon expiry, PLEX are automatically converted to Aurum.
Simultaneously kills speculation on PLEX items in-game, and regulates the quantity of PLEX in existence to more or less perfectly chase demand, which is good for CCP's books.

Plenty of subscription-based games introduce an "RMT for vanity items" delivery system and then switch the entire game over to F2P.

Maybe, but many of them keep the subscription model but allow F2P in a gimped form. For example EQ2 went free to play, with half the races/classes, a limit on the number of character slots, bank slots, and even gold.
Alternatively, some games simply go "Endless Trial" where you can F2P but under constant Trial Account conditions.
Would a free to play Eve account with something like one character slot, all the skill restrictions of trial accounts, and the inability to use Implants be very popular? Not to me anyway :-p I suppose some people could still use them as throwaway scouts or something.

Can you train production efficiency and mass production on a trial character?
If so, I see a lot of "Endless Trial" alt possibilities.
Also check out the scanning skills for same issue.

I think CCP is trying to monetize the headline-grabbing intrigue that is the lifeblood of EVE. Post-Incarna when Bad Bobby pulls a heist worth ~$30k or Khartoon unilaterally disbands a 5000 person alliance, there will be a loyal crowd of EVE "Tweens" who will spend $10 to dress up to look like them. Lady Spank will have a cadre of admirers who will pay hard cash to feel akin to her spunky wheedling.
CCP may even begin to issue Lady Spank branded sorority paddles! (well within their legal rights if you look at the EULA)

This sounds pretty good. 3 months would hopefully keep down SOME panic sells.
