...however you can only use clone upgrades, implants, plex and train/inject skills on a subscribed account?
(I suppose you could even 'police' where they could go with Concord and limit to certain ships)
Would this mean more potential customers for CCP?
Would this mean a massive influx of useless alts or bots?
What does the community think? I am interested

I think maybe some have put too much of their own opinion into my original post.
Many thanks btw to those of you who have replied intelligently (there are far too many knuckledragging trolls these days lol)
I wasn't really meaning a change to the way eve plays by making the whole game free and adding premium items - more making a cut down version of Eve to get those interested who do not want to pay on a monthly basis.
So you are not adding anything but subtracting things for non subscribers.
Personally I thought it may bring an influx of new players.
Those who get the hang of it and want more will subscribe for the abilities I mentioned.
CCP are already adding training for plex with the 2 on one account thingymaboby.
You still give someone the 15 days free (as now) but then the training stops, the implants stop.
This may allow players to taste more of the game before deciding to quit forever because of learning curve etc.
TBH its not much different from what you have now except the unsubbed accounts can still fly around and partake in the Eve universe - but with limits.
Like I said - Just interested in intelligent opinions
(but will read troll replies for laffs and pity)

Imagine if everyone could suddenly get 10 more alt accounts, and fly them? Or for that matter that the amount of people online would multiply by 10 (arbitrary number to get the point across)? Ok, let's assume the servers can (just barely) take it - let's double the amount of people once again (keep in mind, this is without CCP getting more revenue). Servers crash and burn.
So, in my opinion, it's a very bad idea from a very technical point of view.
Excellent answer sir and I think a very very viable point.
From this simple and mature reply it is now obvious to me that this cant work - many thanks Olterin.
...btw to all those who insulted me, trolled me and generally put out your personal hang ups for all the interwebz to see, why did you bother?
Olterin Fire answered the post perfectly in a mature and intelligent manner, was it so hard for the rest of you?.
..anywho it gave me 4 pages of posts which I imagine would make anyone with half a brain feel infinitely superior so thanks for that ;)
