My idea on how to balance eVe economy and remove too much ISKs. Before I present my idea, I want to make my post credible by declaring that I am a RL economist with many years experience.
Q. How to balance the economy and remove ISKs?
A. My favourite word, tax.
Implementation.
eVe bank to tax 2% per transaction of ISKs transferred between players.

Or, you know, we could just fix existing features rather than adding stupid isk sinks like another transaction tax.

Jenny,
The MMO by CCP is called "EVE" not "eVe". Look at the left-hand side of the screen. You can see "EVE Client", "EVE Patches", "EVE Videos", "EVE Music, "EVE Banners". CCP wrote the links so it's safe to assume that CCP call and capitalise the game which they have made "EVE". That's its name.
As for your suggestion, I'm not convinced that there is too much ISK in the game at all but that the people with a lot of ISK are just the vocal minority.
Having said that, I would be interested in CCP doing a breakdown of all the ISK in the game by showing what percentage of players have above so much ISK.

The notion that there is too much ISK in game is one held by people who sit in empire and run missions every day without ever losing a ship.

Even though I think it's not a bad idea, I'm still looking for that elusive 'block poster' button.

IIRC, back in the xetic days - pre in game alliances maybe, a dev posted that no one character had more than 10 billion isk in their wallet. It's kind of changed since then and I'm quite curious too.

Long time ago. As far as I know it was an account transfer, not a forum character transfer.

By the way, it is eVe bank to tax 2% per transaction of ISKs transferred between players when players give ISKs to another character through trade window or wallet option.
We have tax on market trading, why not close this loop hole and have tax on ISKs transfer?

Back on topic: tax on ISK transfers would solve what problem exactly?

how do you transfer an account ?
I thought all we could do was sell characters not accounts ?
as account transfers were against the EULA

The old Jenny removed ISK by dousing her victims pods in gasoline and setting them on fire with missiles and stuff after smacking their ships to pieces in a mighty frenzy. But your idea is also kinda okay  .

Wrangler made a clear response but jenny you really have not considered quite a large number of the player base - like money lenders
apart from that explain why there would be tax on what is essentially two people meeting face to face - in station trading
and why there would be a tax on a private transaction? my wallet - your wallet
