I was gonna give you a ten outta ten for your response to the OP. (Maybe knock off two for the syntax.) But, then you had to add this. I'm posting while I play SWTOR, waiting for a Flashpoint group to get together. Just because YOU don't like something doesn't make it a *. It's just this sort of arrogance that shoots credibilty to hell, from whence it never returns. I guess the only way people have to make themselves feel important is to evicerate something BIG. That makes THEM big. Or, so the theory (or delusion) runs. -10 for anal/cranial inversion.
Naaa its ok, I stand by my statement, I was throwing mud at it before it went live, or was big or had 100000 millions gigs of voiceovers, still doing it as it is live, and will continue to do so after it has catered more MMO market share, evaporates, evolves, go sentient or implodes.
It's a matter of principle. also of TASTES, if you consider it the pinnacle of MMO development and the most fun game ever to exist, I can happily show you the gross market share in the asian market of Westward Journey or perhaps Farmville, and you will see the same effect.
It's a good topic of discussion though, as for some strange quirks of nature, Society is ingrained with the need to either oppose or embrace certain ways of behaving dated by cultural norm and time and space in relation to the current era of Societal development. This very act of negating/embracing certain ways is wonderful development and evolutionary tool.
I knew right from the beggining, as posted earlier, SWTOR was going to be what it was going to be, and it made it possible for me to trigger said psychological quirks in myself. I still hope it tanks, that's my irrational impulse, my rational one though loathes it for it representing what I hate the most about the current MMO market.
I only write this to make it clear in case someone else decides to bash against any argument I propose by simply stating I hate this or that mmo or decide to visit tranny bars, I'm a midget that uses wigs in rl or like to eat guava dipped in mustard or enjoy cyberstalking Alara or Surfin' (just kidding, I think) and take notes of writing patterns in people posting here to see if they are consistent to find out for my own perverted amusement if they are alts of X or Y or Im a compulsive liar and need to make stuff up for an strange urge to create chaos out of order (which I created happily as shown in your response, perfect inexorability!) or ANYTHING you can come up that might be, might not be or is both regarding this online persona known as BrujoLoco.
If I have to make myself clear in a personal taste to clear the way for further elucubration of possible multiple outcomes regarding random threads in the forum, then I better start now in this small patch of text to further reference myself ( as I love to do ) when I need to base a new theory and have to keep a solid and consistent persona/stance and someone else (as it inevitably will happen again) throws the SWTOR card at me ... again. 
it is against any logical declaration of continuity to even pretend I do not stand or abide by what I said earlier unless I specifically declare said idea has evolved into a more refined one, mostly for scholarly purposes, and to embrace my inner solipsistic self when I timeline my whole forum poster career since 2005 and nitpick my own wording, my greatest accomplishment so far having been the rock throwing analogy regarding Incarna pre CCP crash era, (easily searchable in eve-search.com) that i have used to great extent to teach children in RL and have managed to expand to not so good attempt at depicting EVE Online as a sandlot filled with midgets and transvestites wearing wigs and pimps at the borders (easily searchable too btw for the interested if any at all).
With all that behind I hope to continue to please/displease people at the same time, generating a perfect balance of absolute intangibility, since that act itself leads to me understanding, as odd as it might be, the fascinating cultural phenomenon EVE is, an almost unlimited source of amazing personality profiles database, open to anyone and vastly underused.
Thanks for your honest answer, as it gives me fuel to continue in this extremely rewarding act of forum posting in eve online.
I really appeciate it.

Ok but maybe not to a private lawyer's cabinet.
PS: Don't even get me started on the russian vodka thing as well, we know where that went last time... Ultimately any IRL stuff that doesn't affect me is none of my business. I play Eve for my enjoyment and well, trying to put it succinctly, I don't actually care.
If it's legal then it's up to CCP to make the call insofar as game morality (or lack thereof). If it's illegal well, it's not going to be sorted on some game forum now is it?
However, "Money Laundering" is - using your "legal term" - a method of taking funds gained through illegal methods and converting (laundering) to "legally sourced funds".
If RM is gained through the game it's NOT illegal anyway. It might be against CCP policy etc. etc. but unless the money gained via RMT were illegal then where's the "washing" being done?
Only way I can possibly think is "IRL illegal funds" are used to pay for Plex/gametime and converted to isk and then converted to RL through isk sellers.
Seems a particularly complex way of doing it at $15 a time and given how subs are paid, very traceable.
This "conspiracy theory" is not even a good one.

Or just enough for obscene company profits.
Their profits were so obscene they recently had to fire 20% of their staff to stay in business. Or is that also a part of your conspiracy theory? Dude, step away from the bong, or start passing it around. A natural thing to happen when you grow and invest too large in effect...on expensive things the majority of your playerbase doesn't give a **** about... You will get no argument from me on that specific concept, I all but predicted as much a few years ago in the old forums, and railed at CCP for buying Whitewolf, and trying to build 3 games making us the paying beta testers for one of them using the revenue of just EVE subscribers. But, they finally learned maybe, the hard way. We'll see what they do vs what they say they will do. I heard they're on a tight budget, but from subs revenue only. One REALLY wonders where all that money to fund so many other projects simultaneously could've come from... Knowing player to player Plex mechanics in Eve, sub revenues can only be the tip of the iceberg.

That's the problem I have with PLEX. Because of it Eve has become a pay-to-win game in my eyes. No, you don't get +5 undead mega chest death plate; you get a nice chunk of cash to buy whatever the hell you want.
Eve is on a pay-to-win model. Simple. |

The OP would make sense if PLEX was actually something. But, it's not. CCP doesn't have to "get PLEX" to sell PLEX. It's not even the same as printing your own money. Tell me the OP has the sense to know it's only numbers in a database...red...black ink. The PLEX you buy as a player with the item icon is just for show...the transaction is the thing.
CCP using agents to farm for PLEX. Hilarious.
*claps even more slowly* Anyone with any sense has already left town. |
