I personally should be given the ability to generate isk. I can then feed it into the system at a responsible, controlled rate - to compensate for the lack of any other isk source in the game. 
Foolproof plan - lets do it! |

The game is already dying since 6th of May 2003
Some deaths are faster/uglier than others. |

Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes... The dead rising from the grave! Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria! So pretty much my Facebook feed this morning with Brexit.
Please don't bring RL politics into the thread, it is against the forum rules. |

Really? Goons?
They can't even handle 1 little corner of Sov space, but you think they can keep a stranglehold on the economy?
Keep dreaming. |

I think that a small test of this is going on in California at the moment. The huge problems that crops up with this is that you need to fund it from up above - and up above does not want to fund it. It would be a bit like giving free water or electricity to homes, and then charging those above a specific usage enough to cover the cost of everyone. Not groundbreaking stuff, but no one wants to do it because humanity is so stuck on the "ME ME ME" factor.
Based on your loss history you have a fairly large disposable income. When are you going to start sharing your wealth with those who need it more than you do? |

However, even then isk would trickle out of the game as players stopped playing with wallets full. No prices would drop, they would all skyrocket as large groups/indivduals with already big wallets would horde supplies. I have no clue why you think plex prices would drop. People would buy as many as they could while they had isk causing prices to grow.
On the other hand, if you mean remove all isk and go to a better system, that would suck. Many societies started that way, but money made life easier. Most likely you would see someone like chribba create their own.currency based on an external market site. Those few sites would hold a monopoly and life would suck as they could control prices. We could still have insurance. It would just need to pay a isk sum equal to what we paid in plus a % of whatever has not been claimed but expired. New players wouldn't play eve at all if it was that hard to make isk. Eve works largely on a Keynesian style... The guys on the bottom get fed from the local authority, they feed the people above them, the people above them feed the local authority, rinse and repeat. This is why absurdly low taxes on non-wealthy can drive the economy in such a huge way. If CCP stops giving isk then it would change to a Trickle-Down system.. Those don't work... A few hundred players would be all that is left in a year or two :P
insurance would be isk from NPCs (again)...
You guys do realize that the *only* actual "source" of isk is NPCs right? Players transfer isk between each other, but no player in the game can *generate* isk directly...that would be called "cheating"....
It *all* comes from NPCs... |
