I find this ridiculous, tbh. Now those who worked hard to gather that ISK are gonna be beaten by rich ppl in real life, what brings a total unbalance for the REAL EVE world.

Originally by: Hauling I find this ridiculous, tbh. Now those who worked hard to gather that ISK are gonna be beaten by rich ppl in real life, what brings a total unbalance for the REAL EVE world.
There's the other side to this - those people that have rl jobs and spend all day working hard to pay for rent, food and PC upgrades so don't have time to work hard mining/missioning/plexing/marketing/scamming all day in Eve. Now they can also have a way to keep up and afford those new expensive ships/mods.
People that do have more spare time to play and don't/can't work for whatever reason and therefore do have tight budgets can still play as they have the option of using their ingame hard earned isk to pay for their game time. The rl and in game economies both benefit.
I can see your point tho ... maybe a limit on the number of GTCs someone can sell in game in fixed period (tho people with lots of $$ to donate to CCP could just have multiple accounts to sell with). CCP prob doesn't mind either way as it's all good money in their bank to hire new staff, buy new equipment etc.
At the end of the day even if I had $1mil (I wish I did!) to buy isk and then buy anything I needed in game it wouldn't make me a better pilot than someone who had had the luxary of time and experience actually playing Eve and therefore knows how things work and gained a better feel for the environment. They are going to get the best of me in a fight no matter how easy it is for me compared to them to replace what I'd lose.

Taken from the topic of the new system:
"Q) I want to buy a card now but use it on a different account later! How can I? A) There is no need. Buy the code later with the other account."
What you're saying here is more than is what's written. You're using this as a blanket statement as to why we can't "bank" codes and won't give us a way to "bank" them on our accounts. I don't want to resell, I don't want to convert isk to USD$, I want to choose when to use them.
Imagine it like this:
When you go to the market and see a sale on canned food, does the cashier tell you that you can only buy it now if you eat it in front of them; all of it?
I should hope not. So right now, if my account runs out and the price of ETC rises to 175mil per 30 day card, you're forcing me to pay that instead of a price that I may have seen between now and then. Say there was someone selling for 110mil, you would therefor have forced me to pay 65mil more for that same item, just because you didn't want to add an option allowing me to activate the code whenever I want.
In this scenario, the non-perishable food in the can is "activated" by me using the can opener, instead of the cashier peeling off the lid as she scans the bar code.
You see where I'm getting at now? I want to either be able to buy low when the market is slumped, and I want to be able to take a break when I want to rather than CCP telling me that it has to be used now.
I don't know about you, but I have more than one can of food in my cupboard that has been in there for 3 months or more. Is it still good? You bet! It's as good now as it was when I bought it. Same with ETC. In 3 months that same card will still give me 30 days of time.
I'd love to hear the logic you have to refute this... I have a great sig that I was once proud of. After much moderation, I've found the world will never see it again. |

Originally by: Serendib Very good system but there is 1 feature missing. The Buyer should be able to choose the account he wants to charge. The account with the money or another account like the industry alt.
need this feature. i have this feeling that one day i will let my alt go too far and then i wont be able to reactivate it.

Just a question. I had bought a GTC through the secure System. But as it says , u dont need to , log into the GAME for the link to accept it as IT should APPEAR automatically , PROVIDED a person has DONE the order in the Account Management , Selection , so i was trying to see if it workled without loggin intot he game , but i dint get the link or the Option to accept thru the account managemt. , but when i loggerd in to the Game and saw the mail , it and clicked the link to accpet it worked. , i was wondering if ther eis a delay through the , offline method or how long will we have to wait until the , Option appears onto the , account mangement.

I sold someone a GTC their isk went down and time was added to their account, but I never got any isk. I know he had over 1 bil isk, and I know there's a problem with buyers who have over 1 bil isk. I just can't find anything that tells how to solve it.

It isn't possible to create a forum only for GTC ?
Because the sell Orders forum is spam by GTC Sellers
(no offense just it would be cool to have a specific forum for this) -----------------------------------------------

Reduce the amount of relatively simple to do petitions involving timecard scams with much more work for GMs tracking ISK sellers ? This cannot fail!

Im at work atm and dont have time to read through all this, so i hope somebody can answer my Q.
If i was to buy a GTC, any really, and i applied it to my account. Could i then stop my current subscription that is on my credit card, would this keep my account going or not?
I know it might sound a stupid question, but i just want to know as i am interested in buy a GTC sometime some.

I request GTC sales to be move to a different forum subject.
I hate when my sales that can last for days are been bumped in a matter of minutes by multiples GTC sales that usually take less then an hour to be completed.
I doesn't make sense to put them in the same forum.
Moving GTC sale in another forum subject is really easy.
It would reduce numbers of bumps, make sales faster and easyer to browse trough. And by the same way reduce server space needs.

Look i understand that this new methid is a good way to reduce scamming. But making it the only way to buy sell ETCs is stupid beace that is a great market for makeing isk and with this you can not resell thim.

I will be better to set in the contracts option like "selling gtc" or something like that. then some one want to sel gtc, he enter gt code, then it will be checked and only after that it(contract)can be confirmed. then buyer confirm it, the gt code appear in this contract. for example 3 options for gtc(auction, item exchange and personal contract).
it will be great, if the CCP make GTC-trade like that. no scammers and без гемора(so easy to use).

Originally by: greywinged Check this post by GM Nova regarding lost days after using GTCs. So file a petition if you had a similar problem.
Originally by: GM Nova
Originally by: Rado Caldarian Thanks to this nice new system I lost about 20 days. I had valid subscription to 16.3.2006. I used as payment method my visa. I assumed that buying 90 GTC will extend this (I think that it is logical), but it is wrong. Now I have subscription valid to 24.5.2006. This is not whining, only warning for others, but I think that it is very stupid to wait until end of subscription and then extend it.
Hi Rado. File a petition and we will correct this at once. Do not hesitate to contact Customer Support when you have a real problem like this.
GM Nova Senior Game Master
Is this problem solved yet and what is the right way to switch from creditcard payment to gametime cards ?

Edited by: Listopad Cien on 08/05/2007 11:55:38 find it ironic that buying isk is against eula, but buying a time card for real cash, then selling it ingame for isk = totaly suported...
but then since the rl cash goes to the company I guess thats fine?
why don't they also just add a buy isk, direct from them feature too...
People often told me as a child "Money dosn't grow on trees" They were damn right, it floats in space as giant rocks..

I believe it is more to prevent the idea of 'cashing out' when a player leaves the game. With the GTC <==> ISK trade both players need to continue playing to make use of their purchase.
As for a player buffing up his toon with rl $$$, recent dev posts suggest they are working to eliminate that in the upcomming changes to the GTC for ISK system.

Be adviced ppl, that when you transfering isk to suspened account due to not having there enoth isk for confirming GTC buy order, you may be accusaed in isk selling.

For 355 million Isk you would type 355000000
