I pledge -ú500 as personal contribution to WiS which CCP can take automatically from my account when they deliver WiS.
1. Are there other players with ballz to commit to WiS development?
2. CCP do you have the ballz to make WiS?

If you're contributing, shouldn't you give it to them beforehand?

Only idiots on Kickstarter and those who get pre-orders give their money before the product is released. |

I know that, I was just pointing to a silly point in the silly op.

You dont seem to understand. CCP does not have the coding skills to pull off WIS. That is what it comes down to.
Just look at how lousy our toons look walking around in CQ.
If they do it, it will suck.
I suspect that is the other reason why WoD was canned.

If they want to make it, they can recruit people with the right skills from other studios.

I hope you don't want to be taken seriously.
They need the money beforehand,
not afterwards.

WIS must come from a team with a sustainable future. The kickstarter idea, though interesting, would only create a situation like in EVE where a two day old rookie gets a billion ISK. You want WIS to come from a place of good ideas and a team that's able to justify its initial and continued existence.
Of course the problem with WIS is no one is able to answer WHY the feature would be essential to EVE (I know you'd have fun in it but that's not enough of a reason because it doesn't answer what WIS would contribute to the rest of the gameplay in EVE).

This is money that otherwise would not be in CCP pockets. It's called pledge for a reason. CCP delivers, I promise to pay.
Pledge: a solemn promise or undertaking. |

You mean people like the ones they just laid off sent to the True Death in Atlanta?
Having a bunch of devs working on "something" without a plan or a clue is a waste of resources. CCP still has no plan or clue how to do this. Maybe you should kickstart funding for some realistic and deliverable ideas first.

True. What about pvp gambling without wis?
Texas hold'em with ISK while you're gatecamping, or waiting for a fleet to form up.
100% eve spirit. Enable asset gambling for people low on isk.

To do what EXACTLY?
They had 8 years to make WOD and it never even got to alpha or beyond tech demos.
Maybe you should instead kickstart your own game once you work out all the intricate details about how its going to work, what people are going to do and what will make it compelling to play for more than 10 minutes.

That is the obvious answer. Why they dont do it to redeem themselves by giving us a viable WIS, is beyond me.

As much as I support WIS content in eve I too am beginning to think that CCP lack the organisational skill to pull it off, they have talented devs no doubt, but the ass hattery that has gone on in the last couple of years points to a company that just cant deliver at the managerial level. I sympathise with the OP though, a kickstarter style campaign would end the question of WIS once and for all, as we'd soon see how well supported it is by the existing playerbase.
EDIT: If CCP goes on Kickstarter or a similar site asking for WIS Cash I too will pledge.

I don't know how effective the program suggested would be, although I really love the premise. Not to mention it's always awesome to see another WiS/Avatar related thread pop up. 
Personally I've already dumped so much time and money into all of my avatars that I'd like to think of that already as my "pledge". Considering the prices of tattoos these days, for instance, some of my toons are worth more than capital ships. It's quite obvious if there was more content to buy or use - I'd buy and use it. So ... there's my pledge.
