I'd be fairly peeved if they suddenly made the Interbus Shuttle available for "PLEX".
Us geeks tend to be collectors of things, and CCP is geek as well, so I have a hard time understanding their mindset behind this latest escapade.
It is certainly going to make me rethink things when there is another limited ship available for any reason.
There is much to be said in favour of modern journalism. By giving us the opinions of the uneducated, it keeps us in touch with the ignorance of the community.-á-á-á-á - Oscar Wilde |

Apparently so.

I'm not gonna say this is a ton of RL money involved or anything.......
But normally a monthly sub costs $14.95 or a $20 PLEX value. I spent $26.00 for a 30 day GTC from a 3rd Party company, which I never otherwise would have used, just expressly to get the Intaki Syndicate Catalyst.
Now they are just being handed out like candy for Buddy Subscriptions.
It's not the end of the world or anything, but it sure will stop me from trusting anything CCP says is limited edition from now on, especially with RL currency involved.

The Gnosis, so far, has not been promoted as a limited edition.

I would rather see these ships seeded to be used instead of gathering dust in collectors hangers. As for the rookie ships, Echalon(sp?) these would have made fantastic little ships to add to EVE and have flying around everywhere, instead they're all sitting in hangers doing nothing.
But is not that what happens in Real Life to the classic cars people collect ? And all those Star Wars toys still in boxes ?
Gimme a break.
That is the nature of collecting and preservation. Just because these are pixels does not change the dynamic.
CCP has decided to change the dynamic apparently though.
