I will buy as much isk as i need to fly anyship or fit any module i like, that's why i love this game.
Pilots with your attitude (and there are plenty) are one of the many reasons I still enjoy playing EvE. Mainly because when I blow up your ship I get that lovely feeling that I took your lunch money-for real  .
Throwing RL cash to compensate for being a ****ty player seems pretty amusing when all you are buying is a collection of pixels.
Suckers  .

You are not wholely right or wrong, but your statement is a blanket full of holes.
One being that you also pay for those pixels, just not quite as much, o wait yes you do. Do you get paid to work in real life? If so the time that you spend at your computer hunting players down costs money (time = money period). Some people do not have as much time to sit at their computer to grind isk so they buy some GTC's to cover their expenses.
This does not necessarily make them a shottty player. It could mean that they do not spend quite as much time at their computer screen. But it could mean that they are a shottty player. I goes both ways. Just pointing that out.
Also I would suspect that you have quite a few years in game so I hope you would be able to take on and win numerous engagements based on skill.

-I have one account...paid for by CC subscription.
-I have one main...my original. Plus the two trash alts that CCP was kind enough to provide.
-I look at EvE as a game...entertainment...nothing more. RL is irrelevent beyond paying the sub fee. Said sub fee includes my nice collection of pixels and stored database junk that allows me to grow my pile of pixels courtesy of other peoples pixel's.
-Looking at a game in terms of time=money is one of the most self-serving and utterly stupid things I have ever heard of.
-I have been in game since August 2006. Not very long at all.
I stand by my statement. If you pay anything beyond your sub fee to play this game-you are a sucker.

1 fully fitted nano-Ishtar - 15 bucks
Ability to PVP without bothering about grind and mock leet kids in local for wasting their life on a PC game - priceless 
You paid $15 for a collection of pixels?
p.s. I don't pay attention to local either

Come to think of it - I do it monthly. I pay 15 bucks to stare at my collection of pixels.
I haven't paid additional 15$ for any particular stash of pixels - yet, it wouldn't take me a leap of faith to start doing that.
In the end - if CCP would increase prices for 30 day GTCs from 15 to 30 dollars it would be the same thing :)

You miss some top-notch jokes.
I almost ROFLMAO'ed when once our 10 man gang got jumped by a 20 man gang, and than we got smacked in Local for not staying to fight them. Those guys pushed the joke even further, when they called themselves "big boys" :)
Slaughtered 13-0 a few days later, those "big boys" were :)))
You can learn to really enjoy smacktalk :)
My mistake...I thought you were implying extra RL cash on top of the sub fee. And ebay currently has the Ishtar at around $10 anyway (check it out...it's funny...and lots of satisfied customers apparently).
And local is only very VERY rarely worth noting. Besides...I can't understand text/leet-speak beyond LOL/ROFL .
**EDIT**I would LOVE to hear the CSM candidates EACH put forward thier respective thoughts on this sort of thing .
