I expressed my feeling about touching the SP in the game, for whatever reason, and indirectly I hinted how it's a bad idea to touch them.
However, half of the people replying to this thread have not read any part of it and they are not contributing in any way to the discussion, just hopping it to have a post +1. |

It could make sense if only already-accrued-SPs could be sold. This way you would just transfer them from character A to B. It can still be considered pay to win, but it would have lesser impact and it becomes a way to cash in on something you no longer use. In addition you would be able to sell your skills and buy them back to apply them to new skill books! I would subscribe to this.

you convert unwanted sp to plex, convert the plex to game time and play effectively for free. The ratio of sp to plex as people have said would have to be such that the system would not be abused, and lets face it, if something can be exploited or abused by eve pilots, it will be. Its our nature.
If the ratio is too high it wont make sense converting the points in the first place, too low and people will train to play for free.
Make it exploit proof and I might, might I say tentatively think its an O.K idea. As it is ? No
CCP gets a subscription every month, is that not good enough??? Ideology -ás-h-i-t -álist https://gate.eveonline.com/Profile/Gel%20Musana

Skill points for PLEX.
Not "buy a PLEX and convert it to skill points" but "Convert skillpoints you wish you didn't have into PLEX"
Feeling bad about all those industry/mining skills you trained but never use? Convert them into a PLEX!
Annoyed that CCP is completely removing skills from the game (Material Efficiency V anyone?) and playing the semantics game by "changing" the skill to a completely different one? Just delete those useless skill points and apply them towards a PLEX!
Obviously, the ratio of skill points to PLEX would have to be pretty high - far higher than the amount of skill points you can generate during a billing cycle - but I'm sure CCP (or the forums) could math out a good ratio.
Bonus is that a lot of very old/high SP characters who are heavily into being "bittervets" would have an easy way to grab some PLEX and shed so many SP that they could once again get that "newbie" feel (gee, I can't wait until I can fly interceptors *again*!).
I see no downside to this and plenty of upside. It's only a matter of time.
I'm sure that CCP will implement your plan to give away hundreds of thousands of dollars first thing monday morning. |

Well, it would certainly do wonders to knock down PLEX prices, within a few short hours...oh, right...that's not going help CCP much either. |

its a dumb idea. And i already said why. In a room full of dumb blondes, EvE is the smart red head on the other side of the room.-á Lots of men like dumb blondes, and not everyone will like the smart red head, but she doesn;t need to change to be a dumb blonde.-á She is perfect how she is.-á Thats EvE vs other mmo's.-á You either like the red head, or you don't. |

You DO NOT get reimbursed for skill points or skill books.
If you have the option of plugging them in, then you should have the option of unplugging them.
Why should I have to pay a PLEX for that, though? If this feature is ever implemented it should be free and without restriction.
The only people that have a problem with this are those who for some reason still think medclone costs are good for the game. I'd rather see them removed or replaced with a better system. No, this isn't it at all. Make it more... psssshhhh. |
