given the fact they're the only ones that it hurts why would someone go buy 3bll from them for $100 bucks when you can buy PLEXs from ccp and sell them for 3bill for $60?
rising PLEXs prices should only scare RMTers and people that want to play eve for free( lol its still no free your fellow nerds payed for it)

Well i wanted to write some normal response which will actually shows that the OP is somewhat on the right track, but the collateral damage it would/could/is caused/causing is not worth it.
And if there are no buyers for PLEXes then the RMTs will actually have free reign of their market, since no competition means better business. PLEX is somewhat compettion to RMTs. |

Sort of agree... although your use of "there" instead of "they're" annoyed me somewhat.
CCP love in demand plex... and isk sinks for that matter... it keeps the market healthy. |

Its not an ISK sink. Since those payed ISKs are still in-game.

I think part of your statement is true, that RMTer, as in the farmers n people who SELL isk would be complaining. Because CCP became a powerful competitor for them. But I believe people who are making isk ingame legally and perhaps wish to play the game 'for free' by purchase PLEX with their isk would complain about the increase of PLEXs price.
or something like that :) |

PLEX are not an ISK sink for the love of God.
If you don't understand how PLEX work - and it's OK to not understand - then please don't post about them. Malcanis' Law: Any proposal justified on the basis that "it will benefit new players" is invariably to the greater advantage of older, richer players.

I do know how they work but I apologise if I was misunderstood.
I didn't say they were an isk sink...
isk sinks are something thing that ccp like... in demand plex is another thing they like...

USE PLEX AND BLOW **** UP!

Well iv'e not spent any of my own RL-cash on EvE for 2-ish years now. (Plex/GTC bought with ISK)
And it's getting to the point where it's not really "worth" it anymore. Then again ive been quite "afk" from eve the last 3-4 months, so not alot of income :P
But still, prices are nearing half a Bill for a Plex, and it feels kinda -meh- If they go much Higher, I'll probably let my Alt into stasis, and maybe even pay for a month or two on my main (with RL-Cash)

ALTHOUGH one could argue that accounts who only play by PLEX don't really count, because the real money comes from others, these people are still quite a necessity because they remove PLEX from the game and help keep a balance on the market.
Saying that only bots require PLEX to play is wrong, as there are people who can't afford the real money to play and ACTUALLY, the economy requires people who play via PLEX, simply to balance the market. (i'm repeating myself ^^)
Else ... the price would drop because of too many PLEX, which surely would lead to people buying more PLEX ingame, yes, and that would raise the PLEX price again, but sadly not that much anymore. (talking about what happens if suddenly many many many PLEX-players leave)
A lower PLEX price makes the $/ISK ratio unattractive, which leads to more people buying ISK from ebay and less people buying PLEX for real money.
And hell ... it's really attractive right now ... ... right before the next expansion.
And that's working as intended. :)
(Hopefully i didn't leave anything substantial out right now.) |

They're a necessity because they're the ones who buy the PLEX from those who drop cash on timecodes, you see, |

EVE Community loses confidence in CCP.
Community protests by cancelling subs and bragging about it.
Community stops paying for accounts with $$ and begins paying with PLEX.
CCP announces Super Cap nerf.
People have less reason to buy GTC's.
Demand for PLEX goes up, Supply drops.
Community complains about price of PLEX.

Hey, i have an idea !
A virtual server doesn't really cost much.
How about you code your own forum, we all migrate there and start shiptoasting about how bad it is ? :D |

To be fair, ccp should only be interested in the amount of plex that is shifted, not the price.
Theres alot of new money in town with the release of incursions that can net you up to 100mill/hr if you know what you are doing, that could either be having a knock on effect by increasing the number of people subbing with plexes or reducing the number of people buying plex, no idea how to tell which. |
