But do you have enough AUR to disable the safety switch?

The merits of the guys career aside, in case you havent noticed, marketing has been something that CCP has been rather bad at in the course of EvE. And since more subs = more money, and more money means more staff. There is a good chance that better marketing would actually accelerate EvE's development cycle and deliver all of that stuff they promised, sooner. It could mean bigger expansions and better artwork. And it could also mean that the doors to the captain's quarters will open before EvE enters its third decade.
I agree, if this is just about advertisement then it might be a good thing. However, after hiring somebody with a strong background in F2P and a history in projects like the recent Sim City installation I can't help being a bit worried.
I for one won't do any long-term subscriptions for now and probably move some laser ships close to monuments. I suppose we'll just have to wait and see what happens.
Some kind of statement from CCP would be nice but I wouldn't hold my breath.

Move said ships closer to newbie systems. If the **** does indeed hit the fans, and this new Senior-VP convinces/drives CCP to compromise what makes EvE EvE for the sake of "drawing in new players," suicide-ganking those very new players would be a much stronger statement.
While so far I've never really high-sec-ganked anyone, this could indeed make me start.

Wouldn't this move (hiring the EA guy) lead to higher PLEX prices because more players are going to spend their ISK on PLEXes rather than paying subs?
I know that I for one don't feel compelled to inject any money right now and may start PLEXing once my subs run out...
