Don't people sell services such as TS servers and website designs for in game isk? I am pretty sure I saw a couple of posts about that.
Also if CCP did some ships models i'd totally jump on that, an Armageddon model or an archon will fit rather nicely in my room, was it for real cash or iskies.
And I don't think there is a huge market for "style" and "cloth" in an internet spreadsheet spaceship game, especially if you are catering to the "super rich" which can only involve trading, manufacturing on a huge scale or running mega alliances (ceo's steal a lot right?). I don't want to presume but these people rarely the light of the sun right? (Please refrain from I am rich but I have a lot of friends and i party all night and you will only dream about the gf I have comments, all of the above was said in jest) |

Before these awful forums, there was also people who'd design EvE signatures for the posters.
But look, it's TS for EvE, websites for EvE, signatures for EvE. CCP has so much to gain from fostering EvE communities and services that they are very lenient (I have described to some in game about a special and very valuable CCP reward for those who stand out at that). Plus that's CCP's intellectual property (IP) usage to create CCP related services / products.
In the second case (Geddon), it's still CCP making money selling you that stuff.
The above is totally separated from an individual making money or getting items (in)directly making use of CCP IP for his own gain. Since CCP won't make a nickel out of that, they forbid it. It's that simple.
Now, sign up a profit sharing contract with CCP and voil+á they magically allow you to trade whatever for PLEX or whatever.

Until i can run around stations fluidly and jump and dance or do some sort of other goofy visual antic unique to this game (station laser gun fights?) I'm very unlikely to buy any clothing vanity goods.
As others have mentioned.. owning a Titan has a littel bit of interest to me but I'd only want it to be 1/10th of my EVE wealth and I'd need almost an order of magnitude more to make that so.... ..
VANITY I WOULD PAY for ?
I would pay a 300 million Bribe*** (NPC isk sink) to be called SIR when I entered stations and various other announcements..
"You have been granted permission to dock SIR" .. "Warp drive active SIR "
Maybe even a title "General" or "Captain" or "COUNT " or eve better something like "Yes Mr. Calypso"
Buying a Title from NPCs seems totally consistent with the environement
As only the player would hear the "Sir" it wouldn't detract from other players enjoyment.
**or an anuual plex (athough don't want to drive plex prices up.. maybe a $ cost or an isk cost at fixed rates that would only vaguely be a fixed connection do to it's relation to an untransferable vanity privalage |
