What if sweatshops donated some of their profits to the red cross?
If there is no game-balance issue speaking against RMT then CCP would now gladly allow it?
How holding on to the basic idea of an equal playingfield?
I personally wouldn't give a rats ass if GTC limited crime, evil, plague or armageddon throughout the world. CCP ought to have the interests of its customerbase and the core belief of "paid subscription = equal oportunity" as a main focus.
It's a god damn outrage that CCP let IRL wealth have a direct impact on ones sucess in Eve. I've got no respect for GTC-buyers and consider all their achievements in Eve void.

so your saying CCP should **** over the player base than can't pay cash to play eve?
You're asking me if people who can not afford to consume a product shouldn't be allowed to recieve sactions, which jepaordizes not only a core value that most substitute products have but the integrity of CCP as a company, to do so?
Then yes.

Who cares if people want to spend real money in eve. It all explodes the same way and once you've found a good niche way of making isk, it's not very hard to do anymore.
Yes, they all explode the same way. But don't forget that you also explode the same way. What about the day you loose your hard earned ship due to a GTC-buyer who could afford a domination webifier instead of a T2?
I don't give a **** what people spend their RL money on. I'm concerned about that poeple
in Eve are getting an in game-advantage that they haven't earned and that it, in the end, can have a negative impact on me.
Originally by: Tim Bit
The advantage it gives people to buy isk is reduced by the fact that 80% of them are idiots about how they spend it.
Common argument but I don't understand it. What says that GTC-buyers are any less smart or skilled in Eve as the next player?
Originally by: Tim Bit
It lets people in countries who can't afford it pay for game with isk, and I like having these people play the game with me.
It lets me play the game for free for a while if I find an officer spawn, which is awesome.
I have no problem with this. I would still play Eve if everyone but me could pay for free. It's be way better since it'd be on equal terms.

People gain advantages buy buying 5 f-ing accounts and farming with 4 of them while 1 pvp's. That's bigger stupider garbage than trading cards in my opinion so who cares, that's just how it is. Kill them all."
I can see the problem with alts also and in a perfect world I'd had them removed too. Still, you can not escape the fact that the isk generated from the 4 alts is ISK accuired in-game, opposed to gtc-trading.
