Dear CCP,
I'd like for you to acknowledge that the RL cost of PLEX is having a negative effect on the player numbers. Lots of people are leaving and are finding it difficult to play the game because of limited time and RL finance.
The goal of this petition is to request the revision of the RL cost of PLEX so that it is closer to the monthly sub cost. A lower RL PLEX cost may prompt the PLEX for isk sellers to lower their prices which will help PLEX users stay in the game. If the PLEX sellers have no customers we could see the plex sellers also leave the game.
Please accept these signatures that will show the depth of support on this matter.

My preference would be for the per PLEX price to be double the real money cost of a one month subscription. |

Lowering the price of PLEX will either be the best thing that has happened to the game...or the worst.
Only one way to find out.

So you want this thread to be an echo chamber wherein only those who agree with you will have their posts visible and all those who voice otherwise will be reported by you to have their posts deleted?
You should try Reddit then because there is a built-in feature for that.

My guess is that RL PLEX prices should counter ingame(IG) prices with a fixed minimum. ie as the price UG rises as it is now, the RL price falls and encourages more people to buy PLEX with $-ÑGé¼. As the IG price falls due to the oversupply of PLEX then the RL price rises again.
Getting the balance right is key but as long it was done openly then tweaks would not be an issue as long as the multipliers were nudged in small increments.
Just like all EVE commodities, prices rise and fall...RL PLEX should follow that truism too...
SHORT ANSWER: No to a fixed price drop |

The team of economists should be sacked imo. A more socialist attitude needs to be applied. What are we saying here? **** the poor people?
Yes, PLEX prices should be changed to suit my needs. My need is for Eve to remain online for a very long time. If the PLEX customer base vanishes then a few thousand people will leave.

Report this one to...
Your idea is bad, PLEX cost what they cost; In game, set by a market of players for isk; Out of game, set by CCP for RL cash`.
No amount of signatures will change that.
Also threatening reports and deletions for those that disagree with you is pretty disgraceful.
There is no such thing as a fair fight...
If your fighting fair you have automatically put yourself at a disadvantage.

Aaron,
If the problem is the people can't afford the price of PLEX and you want CCP to reduce the PLEX price to be closer to monthly subscription price why not just suggest players subscribe instead of use PLEX?
From recent figures supplied by CCP Quant, we know that almost 2/3 of the player base have just 1 account.
So I assume you aren't talking about alt account here and believe many people pay their main account with PLEX.
If its finances that are a problem, then I can understand why. It makes no sense to use PLEX paid for with cash, to stay active on a main account. People should subscribe and they'll instantly have the lower price you are petitioning for.

I can afford my sub. If **** poor people is the attitude of the likes of you and CCP then kiss good bye to more customers/players, this is the facts.

The argument of a weak mind. If we disagree you must be racist/bigit/against poor people. Hmm I am classified as poor by the government. I seem to be able to manage my money well enough to pay all my cost of living and extras like Internet and Eve.
And your argument doesn't hold water.

If poor people's ability to play EVE is determined by a $1-2 price change then their financial position is such that they shouldn't be playing EVE in the first place...

Cool, if this is your attitude then you must accept failing numbers without crying about it. Open your eyes brother, can't you see the plex users crying on the forum?
A petition thread is simply signed or not signed. Not signing means you disapprove and that you don't need to comment. Keep your short sighted opinions to yourself !

But if it is really the in game PLEX users that you are concerned for, then that has nothing to do with the RL cost of PLEX.
To subscribe an account for a hobby is normal discretionary spending we take into account when working out our finances. To purchase PLEX on top of that to sell for ISK in game is not something CCP needs to subsidise.
People who can afford that don't need to worry about a couple of dollars in savings.
So what you really are concerned about is the in game price of PLEX and believe that the shortage of supply is because of RL economic reasons. That doesn't make much sense.
If you want to reduce the in game price that's one thing. But suggesting that the out of game price should be lowered to make discretionary spending easier is just asking for straight charity from CCP for the players that can already afford it anyway.

IS there enough that can afford it already that CCP is ok with them being the only group that buys plex?
I would think they want to constantly grow instead of milk a selection of their population till the end.

My opinions promote customer satisfaction and loyalty, if all the parties involved in PLEX reach a consensus we will see numbers stabilize and good prospects for the Eve economy.
Some of the plex users are miners who pay for 2nd, 3rd, and 4th accounts, if all of them were to suddenly stop using most of their accounts then the supply of minerals will be effected resulting in higher mineral prices. Industry will be affected and the price of everything will rise.
This game seems to be catering for the capitalists among us, if it continues this way then CCP will lose more of their income as more people leave.

Even if you pay monthly, which is the most expensive way of doing it, Eve costs the same as a music CD, the price of two fancy coffees in Starbucks, a meal for two at McDonald's. F*** all.
I guarantee the same people QQing on here about the cost of space pixels have/do at least one of the following:
- gym membership
- -ú400+ iPhone/Android Phone
- -ú100+ Beats headphones
- -ú800+ computer
- drink alcohol
- smoke cigarettes/weed
- have the opportunity to work overtime but turn it down
- eat out more than once a month
- own a "modified" car
All these things cost money, but you choose to spend it there, rather than on Eve.
If you *really* enjoy Eve so much that you feel the need to sperg here about paying for it, get your credit card out, pay for your subscription, join the "PLEX PRICE IS IRRELEVANT TO ME" master race, and laugh at stupid posts like this.
Pr0tip, if you're half decent at managing your income, you can have/do all the things on that list and still play Eve

So... they would be making more ISK for their labor? OH THE HORROR!!!  promises promises  It's almost as if the OP is inadvertently attempting to turn this thread into a CODE. recruitment drive. Less miners = win profits etc. Might even make manufacturing viable again.

By this logic, if the price of minerals were to rise, then PLEX would once again be in the reach of industrious miners. I.E. its a cycle and merely being patient will result in a return to the status quo.

Again, what about the people who can't afford a couple dollars in savings? What's the answer? Is is **** you, you're poor?
The in game price of a PLEX is affected by the RL cost of it. If plex were -ú9.99 then perhaps the in game cost of a plex could be 700m, all parties benefit in this example.
