CSM will come back and tell everyone to chill out, and that NeX is vanity only, as CCP has been saying for months.
I'll bet a monocle.

I had a little conversation with someone yesterday about MT/Non-Vanity and he actually had a convincing argument for enabling non-vanity MT.
You see, PLEX already exists, and allows a player to spend 15 dollars and buy a Machariel. How is this any different?
But thats not all. All items in NeX are available to be purchaced with isk (Buy a plex, then convert plex into Aur). So really, a non-vanity MT store would be no different then selling PLEX themselves, since players who dont pay a dime to ccp can still purchace the non-vanity items with isk.
As for the 'financial situation'... i refer you to the Fearless document you give so much policy-making credit to:

It is different... that mach didnt poof in to existence. Someone had to buy a ship, fit it, go out and shoot rats, and get the bpc. Materals were mined by someone to make it. In doing so they were vulnerable to attack by other players. The NeX would bypass all of those things.

YOU STILL DON'T GET IT DON'T YOU? Maybe that MONOCLE of yours its affecting your vision of REALITY.
When people buy PLEX and sell it it benefits another player that worked hard (or easy, doesn't care) for its isk.
When people use isk and buy a character, it benefits the player that made the character for "growing" him while you haven't done anything for him.
Using PLEX to buy something in-game benefits the player who made that thing in-game.
Using Aur to buy something that only CCP benefits crash the intention of making the game a sandbox and break the economy to something that doesn't worth anything. Capiche?
Wrong.
Using Aur to buy a non-vanity item can still benifit players. It depends how they create the system. Note, the system hasnt been created yet, and thus your point is just mindless speculation and fear mongering. You assume that CCP will cut players out of the transaction, when infact there has been many great suggestions all over the forums on how to cut the players in on the deal.
For example, in order to upgrade your raven to a 'NeX Raven' with an extra 5% torpedo damage, you would still require a player-built regular raven in exchange.
And then, nothing is broken, Capiche?

CCP will say that there will be no physical non-vanity items. They will however offer remaps & sp realloaction via MT though.
CCP will not agree to making CQ optional though and won't agree to changing their development to a) placing more priority on Eve or b) resolving existing issues.
i dont see what the problem is. (ignoring the bugs of course) the change is about the same as changing the login screen. Instead of a spinning ship you have a character and a couch.
In a years time you wont want CQ to be optional ether, as shown in the fanfests of previous years, they intend to develop WiS and create new BPOs for in-station things, such as gambling tables and storefronts.
This is the direction eve is going. You can cut yourself out of it and pretend it doesnt exist, remaining in your disabled CQ. But there will be thousands of players exploring, trading and doing business in stations.

The only ones who will benefit form this is CCP, not the players.
CCP can already implement all these featurs if they wish, and let them be avaliable for isk. People can get isk through PLEX if they so desire already.
Putting featurs and new things behind a paywall is only done to milk the players for more money. Nothing more.
Correct. Whats the problem? Do you honestly believe CCP exists soley as a non-profit organization to provide you with internet spaceships? I think not, peasant.
MT is obviously for generating increased profit. This is what companies do, they make money off of you.
If you do not wish to support CCP as a company, then you shouldn't be paying for your account ether. The actual cost of allowing you to play is far below your subscription cost. At least the MT is optional.
Personally, i want to see CCP succeed, i want to see WIS, and more content. I want to see it make the Guinness Book for longest surviving MMO. I want to look back at these days and laugh at your failed peasantry uprisings and marvel at how far above you i've soared, monocle in brow.
