 A big splash-screen that reads:
 
 
 
 Permanently Closed. 
 Captain's Quarters environment has been safely removed.
 
 Beware of the leopard.
 
 
 
 
 MT in a subscription game is a terrible idea. We don't need a cash shop and another currency for buying vanity ship skins (and similar FIS stuff) that can be sold for isk + LP. If players create and/or generate that content , all the better.
 
 
 The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the ho's and politicians will look up and shout 'Save us!' and I'll look down, and whisper 'Hodor'.

 Maybe, but not in EVE at this time. The fact the NeX failed dilutes your argument no matter where you place the blame for that.
 
 There is an expression: "putting lipstick on a pig". Another one is: "if you polish a turd, it's still a turd". CCPs expensive MT experiment has failed. Should CCP completely rework the NeX and their MT aspirations in the future, it's going to be a fairly big undertaking because it will have to also involve some kind of Avatar interaction beyond the Captain's closet. CCP is having to manage ROI between 3 games, and such a rework will be expensive and is something the present player base isn't likely to embrace especially if it also means the neglect of FIS again.
