Curious...
You all seem to think its well and cool to charge stupidly high prices for t2 ships and print free isk with no risk.
Something comes along that actually makes you reliant on the people who've had to pay those stupidly high prices and its chicken little time.
I like the idea of rams being limited, that would allow the entire t2 market to open up with prints for everyone and let the rams be the controlling factor as to who gets to build t2 instead of who won a lottery and got risk-free isk for the rest of there life.
Building a tech2 ship takes more than just slapping some components on a tech1 hull and going voila! To construct the components, a POS needs to be used to refine moon minerals into the compounds used to make those components. Running a POS is not free, and thus that cost has to be passed down the line in some capacity.
It's not simple isk printing by any stretch. Is there some overblown pricing? Sure there is. But like it or not, they're specialty items that take an effort to produce. Tack on a reasonable profit to the builder and it's still going to be high. It's supply and demand that drives it up to what you call "stupidly high prices". The only way you can send a message to sellers that their price is too high is to not buy from them. Rest assured, not all builders are interested in gouging.

The issues with RAMs and R.Dbs, their volume and consumable nature of the items is known and the Dev team is discussing how to resolve the issues faced by manufacturers. A resolution should be coming in the very near future.
More information will be posted SoonÖ.
So where's it in the patch notes about this? Was it intended, accidental, or a future change that slipped its way into RMR?

I posted 'near future' because I do not know when this will be resolved. It might be tomorrow, it might be next week, it might even be after the new year. Until I find out when it will be resolved, I don't want to post a time estimate that might or might not be met. The last thing I need right now is a bunch of manufacturers forming a 'Let's lynch kieron' mob because I gave a date that wasn't met.
Ok, well your loss.

This issue is getting serious, just as predicted by most t2 producers. It needs attention from CCP!
Why don't you write a song about it.
