Mirima Thurander Deventer Exploration An Acquisition 57	Posted - 2011.11.21 15:18:00 - [1] - Quote 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) edit for the 1942 grammar Germans I love the the smell of victory in the morning. It smells like... Blood, vomit and burning flesh. I Like You. I'll Kill You Last.

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.

Water MEI hirr Morsus Mihi 3	Posted - 2011.11.21 15:45:00 - [8] - Quote 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 :)

Farrisen MoaR ChickeN 47	Posted - 2011.11.21 16:26:00 - [14] - Quote 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)
Solstice Project Cult of Personality 181	Posted - 2011.11.21 17:12:00 - [15] - Quote 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.)

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. It's not Rocket Surgery

Anazzar Howling Stones Mining Corporation 0	Posted - 2011.11.21 20:10:00 - [24] - Quote 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.

We saw online numbers fall from around 42k to just barely hovering at 20k. And you think the CSM did the work ? That is an insult to the people that felt they had to leave and a lack of understanding what forces drove the refocusing.

NeX store owns d e a l w i t h i t Oh I'm sorry I didn't realise the NeX was universily loved by the playerbase, my mistake. What were all those cancelled subs and protests about again, can you remind me, because I'm pretty sure the NeX was one of the reasons. CCP may not have been quite so blas+¬ with implementing the NeX as they did had the CSM shown anything but indifference because they thought it would just be screwing with the roleplayers. Unfortunately that indifference made CCP think that everyone would be perfectly fine with the NeX, which as we have seen, they are not. Had the CSM been a little more diligent in their dealings with CCP over the NeX, would we have seen the riots when Incarna was released, food for thought I believe. Hopefully CCP will change the way the CSM is elected so the playerbase ends up with people who are more interested with keeping the integrity of the whole game and not just their little pet pocket of it. And if that can't happen then as far as I'm concerned get rid of the CSM entirely and replace it with in-game surveys. The truth ... deal with it.

Then they buy up plex, sell them for more, profit all the while. Sheesh. See what happens when fat neckbeards try to ride little ponies? The ponies die.

The only people bitching about the PLEX prices are the ones that havent paid a single $$ towards this game after they initialy bought their account. IE, setup the account, pay for 1mth to get the skills required to do lvl3-4's, buy plex in game from then on in. People seem to resent the idea of paying $14.95 per month for this game, hense choose to grind in game to use plex instead. With the PLEX prices on seemingly a steady increase, their "comfort zone" of grinding L4's for 4-5 hours straight has been increased to 8 hours. P.S - RMTers have fallen off their chair laughing at you OP at the notion that its more profitable to buy plex than RMT. If you had of spend 20 seconds on google before opening you're mouth to state said "facts" you'd see yourself how wrong you are.

O'realy now? but i do know how cheap isk is to buy it off the webz but the ever increasing plex prices are making a steady climb towards interfering with there profits (given that's still a ways off) but when has that ever stopped a business from starting as early as possible to try and stop there competition. it would be bad business not to try and keep plex prices down so they still have the best isk to $ ratio. whats the better deal(given these are made up numbers) $100 for 3 bill and no chance of a ban or $85 for 3bill and a possible perma ban?

Also remember that the RMT companies probably have stocks of hundreds of PLEX so if anything they have made a mountain of isk OP is an idiot so is anybody else who thinks that the RMT Companies have hated PLEX'es going up
