I just want to make sure we're all in agreement that it's okay to create SP from thin air, RE: the reward for Iceland winning the Euro football championship (go Iceland, yay football!)
OR will the Injectors be bought from the market using seized funds, in order to preserve the market instead of trampling it?
If the plan is to magick the Injectors into everyone's redeeming queue and we're okay with it, that means we've come full circle from the original reasoning that all SP will be generated by subscribed players. And I'm just curious if that has finally happened.
Boiling frogs, man.

do you know how many characters you'd have to extract to provide an injector to every active account

I'm more hyped about Quafe SKINs though! I totally hope Iceland wins. I am American and impartial, because not EU and our football is different (and I'm sure Iceland could field a HUGE american football team).
I could also really go for an Injector per account. I will use them just like everyone else.
I'm just curious if we've fully accepted SP as something that can be given out on this scale.

My number might be wrong.
Also CCP was beting on something like - if Trump wins and then decides to gove away his wealth and go live in Tibet as a monk we ill give out injectors.
Not out of realm possible. Just amazingly unlikely.
I understand youre logic - its not the bet, its that they were ready to make SP out of thin air. I would argue they wouldnt make it out of thin air, more likely take a "loan" in SP that would be covered by future RMT bans. I suppose 45 billion SP doesn't seem so crazy. I have more than 1.5 billion SP across my characters.
CCP have you seized 45 billion SP in characters?

hey so I kind of feel like out-of-game stuff discussions should be in OOPE. This thread is about ethics in video game XP

Hey guys, I feel like there's a difference between 500k unallocated and a Skill Injector. One would be a free week of subscription time benefit, which has been done for quite a few years like you have mentioned. Gifting a SKill Injector, however, is different because there's a recent in-game market for those, and one of the guarantees for its stability was that Injectors would only come from subscribing players.
Giving unallocated also requires the consumption of Skill Extractors which would at least maintain the relationship between AUR, PLEX, and Skill Injectors, and preserve the process of having to extract SP.
CCP I hope you agree that directly awarding Injectors trashes an in-game market needlessly.

They'll find none of my characters have Injectors, and I've only used four total to transfer SP between them.

Roenok Baalnorn wrote:even if i got one injector per account i would still be in the negative for what i bought and what i actually injected. in fact i would be in the hole enough to supply another injector or two. some players have injected all the way to 500 mil sp. from start. Those alone would probably nearly cover everyone in jita right now.
So i think its safe to say that ccp will of "created" less sp than was lost since skill injectors came out with this. Injector SP efficiency loss is a drawback to prevent us from freely remapping characters. It's not meant to be a justification for CCP spawning them at will.

They have an effect and that's why instead of Skill Injectors, we should receive Unallocated. Especially if a lot of players will use the item anyway like you suggest.
Exactly how much of an impact dev hacked Skill Injectors will have on the market is a different discussion.

No one is crying doofus. If you're okay with it, that's cool. I asked the question, hey, are people sure they're okay with Skill Injectors being handed out. But don't try to tell me it's okay because they're not totally efficient.
