Somebody get this on SLASHDOT.ORG :)
If CCP want press coverage, lets give it to em.
there is already a poorly worded story on this in the firehose.
Quote: "CCP Games, who develops the popular MMO Eve Online seems to have stirred several hornets nests at once during a major expansion. First was their idea of micro transactions, on item costing $60 by itself. Second was a leaked memo (linked below) detailing future plans for more micro transactions, ones that would give players a clear advantage. This has players on the forums outraged, there is even a forum post dedicated to articles from gaming magazines, sites, and blogs that show CCP in a bad light.

Doubt this will make it to the frontpage but you can upvote it if you want... Linkage
maybe the editors will turn the summary into something more readable /sarcasm

Joystiq - Controversy brewing over Eve Online microtransactions - "The current prices on items in the Noble Exchange are far above typical microtransaction charges and an order of magnitude higher than expected"
Massively - Rumour: Leaked document shows CCP's microtransaction plans
Eurogamer - CCP: Greed is good?
PC Gamer - Eve Online now selling $70 monocles - "The cost of these items is far, far beyond most DLC prices"
Kotaku - Eve Online is selling horse armour in space - "youÆd think CCP would have been a little more subtle about fleecing the devoted"
VG247 - EVE Online economy upset by avatar items - "theyÆre probably better classed as 'macro-transactions'."
MMOGA - Eve Online Charging 68 Real Dollars For Space Monocles - "quite one of the most ludicrous cases of overpriced DLC I have ever heard"
RockPaperShotgun - Eek: EVEÆs Clothing And Cash Crisis - "The vanity items appear to have been comically overpriced."
Gamer Gaia - "the most ludicrous cases of overpriced DLC I have ever heard"
Games On Net - "These prices match or often exceed actual real-world prices for the same items (minus the robotic eye) which leads players to wonder what, exactly, is going on."

Where do they find so many dumb people who think you have to pay real money for PLEX?
Or are these the people who are so bad that they can't earn 400m isk?
WAAA Call the WAABULANCE, I want a pretty eye piece but I suck at EVE and my mommy won't buy me PLEX
WAAAAAAA
Sour grapes.

All PLEX are paid for with RL currency.
You might use isk for PLEX ingame, but those PLEX got into the game because someone paid for them with RL currency.

Another person who doesn't understand the market.
Hey, if I buy a Bentley with $400,000 worth of gold bricks, does that mean the car has no dollar value?
If you don't understand why this analogy is relevant, you should stop posting.

Originally by: Chandler Urandom Whenever there has been talk about gaming and MMOs, I've often mentioned I play EVE to friends and such - maybe get them involved. I will keep this to myself for a while now.
"Oh lol, you play the 70$ monocle game?! Hah!"
Same as me. Once I was proud to hold up Eve as an example of what MMOs should be. Even WoW doesn't sell items as lame as this at such insane prices, and to think I joined in the mockery when they sold the Sparkly Flying Mount! Eve has plummeted to the depths not even the most superficial of MMOs has plumbed.

Is there a MT option where I can buy fixes to existing bugs and core broken mechanics? I'd buy that instead of a pair of panties with a hole in the crotch.
