Originally by: DaisieD Edited by: DaisieD on 30/07/2006 05:04:36 so you claim theres 7000 people who couldn't play without timecodes for isk, so heres my claim, theres 15,000 people who would have played eve but dont because they are disgusted by the fact that eve online has turned into one of those crappy mmorpgs that allows people to buy their way through to the top end of the game using their real life money. the fact that real life money is having such an influence on the actual game is enough to drive many gamers (customers) away from eve online.
name one game which doesnt have macro'ers/ebay'ers/ or "gtc'ers

Originally by: DaisieD so these games have gametime codes, well done, but the developers of these games dont allow the player to trade these codes for ingame money like ccp do, do you even understand why we are having this discussion?

you knew what i meant, what are you, 8? how immature can you be? just because i didnt specifiy in the exact words what i meant, it didnt stop you understanding the meaning of what i said, but ok, since you want to be a child about it, i'll say it in full words for you.
other mmos dont allow people to buy gametime codes for real money, and then sell them to other players for ingame currency, ccp is the only company who allow this, and its going to hurt them severely over time.
If your gonna be picky to me i'll be picky to you. kthx.

Incorrect. Most of my replies have been about the sale of GTC's for isk but this subjectcomes up every bloody week. it has been discussed at length. Deal with it.

Also.. GTC's will be bought in flocks atm as you can't pay for your account/transfer characters as Visa/CCP Bank is "down"
So atm this is irrelavant topic anyway as people will buy GTC's left right and center :D

Edited by: Portrait Swap on 30/07/2006 05:33:55 Tbh.. no-one can buy enough GTC's to really effect eve economy...
If people were regulary making 50bil + .. their MIGHT be an effect.. If people made 100bil + then yeh there'd be an effect. (If their were a large amount making it on a regular basis)
The reason you notice it more? Because theirs no ingame market ONLY forums.. If everything from escrow+market was on forums you wouldnt notice GTC's.

Its not when you do this calculation
(People lost directly to gtc's + players who leave cause they don't like game)
- (minus)
(players joining + people dependant on gtc's)
=
Roughly the same...
