I can only assume that CCP are doing this as they are in severe financial straits so really I suspect I am leaving a sinking ship.
As I said in another post, any form of f2p and I shall retire from the game, unfortunately my sub does not expire until the middle of next year, then I am finished with Eve.
Take care all.

Technically it won't ever expire. Shouldn't you wait to see what harm this actually causes before quitting?
As a commercial company CCP have the right and indeed must do whatever it considers best to survive.
Eve is a past-time for me but it is the means by which company employees make a living for themselves and their families.
I accept that CCP are doing this to survive as a company but it is a future I choose not to be a part of.
When my sub expires in the middle of next year I shall have been a subscriber for a little over ten years, it seems as good a time as any to retire.
Malcanis, f2p is the harm.

Cash for skills was mainly used by vets to dump unwanted skill points and did not lead to any great influx of new players, perhaps the idea of paying a sub then needing to fork out extra cash for skills did not have that much appeal to new players.
Who'd a thunk it?
If cash for skills had been successful CCP would not be offering this ham-strung version of 'free to play'
If 'inadequate' skill points are seen as the main sticking point for new players who want to experience all that that the game has to offer, then why not take the radical step of giving all players all the skill points?
This would change the game from a 'time-cash-sink' into one where player ingenuity is the primary skill.
We are on that slippery slope anyway, so for Pete's sake just get on with it.
The constant whittling away of the original game ethos is just annoying.
CCP cut to the end game and just do it!

Ganking has a long and honorable history in Eve, but I am not convinced that some one who pays to play is going to think it is acceptable for some one who plays for free to be able to gank them.

Double click on the Blue Label - should work, then double click on each Dev post blue label to advance to the next one.
If I remember correctly :)

Dear Ptitz, I sincerely hope that you get what you want, just think, if CCP allow free-loaders to do pretty much anything they want, then I and all the other folk who pay to play could also become free loaders and that would really help CCP's finances.
Jeez, man, just buy a PLEX or something.
Take care.
