Originally by: Sharcy The OP is referring to a post made by kieron a couple of days ago in which he elaborated on a post of his. I believe the bottomline of it all was that CCP is looking into ways of disallowing the selling of GTC's by players, but instead offering the possibility to buy GTC's for ISK from CCP directly.
Interesting concept...i just hope they arent forgetting about the other side of the equation...folks like me. Folks that like to play, but have a rather busy life so they cant play as much as they like. But are able to counter that by spending some real cash. Cause if they do..oye. Its a trade off between wants and needs. My friend wants to have a lot of accounts, he needs not to pay 15 a month for them, so he needs to buy GTC for isk. And Before you say anything, he isnt a macro miner. he is a miner though, he just has a computer lab setup in his house (I envy him for this..)

Maybe it will rid the game of macro miners and make alt accounts something that not everyone will have. But it doesnt look like they will, which I guess is fine too. And nope, dont know where his thread is either. 
Do you know how many of your friends probably buy/sell gtcs? Maybe someone doesnt have the cash to pay the 15 bucks a month, but is able to make the 150M-ish a month to buy a GTC to cover it so he can game? I love how people KEEP forgetting that everyone cannot pay the 15 bucks a month all the time. Geezus, head out of sand, look around at the world for once. Also, why are alts bad? Heck, i have 3 accounts. I have my main, a pvp oriented character/mission runner when bored. I have my first alt that is a miner/hauler/producer/refiner. And i have a 3rd alt training for a carrier right now. It lets me spread and maximize my game enjoyment. here's a concept.. "Jack of all trades, master of none".
And what is with the "oh god, if someone buys/sells gtcs they must be a macro" condesending approach in your post? Are you THAT blind?
TBH if someone can't find 50c/day then they shouldn't be playing computer games anyway.
