Well like others have said, when you took away the 30d and 90d gtc's a lot of us were very ****ed off, we still are. You managed to reduce your subscriptions then and your going to reduce them now.
Well I'm letting my 3 accounts go inactive for good.
Greed ain't good, you should learn something from your banking sectors melt down

Yeah, and while we're at it we can create a controlled environment around account hacking and credit card fraud and all the other EULA breaches..

Thought I'd record my prediction here so that it can be date/time stamped for posterity.
The next move by CCP to try and gouge extra money from us to fund their vampire MMO is going to be to raise the fee for transferring characters. You heard it here first.
With all the people out there consolidating alt accounts now due to the training change, this move will be seen by the brighter lights at CCP as a way to cash in extra revenue while the customers reduce the number of accounts they play dramatically.
Perhaps they will even rationalize that it might dissuade the occasional player from consolidating accounts and keep the account open long term.
I'm sure they have looked at that as an option, on a side note they are getting some nice money from character transfers but as it stands from looking at online stats, they are down quite a bit. If we look at this weeks highest which is over 5k less than the record last March and no one can say it's just the summer effect as we are now in November.
If you also take into account the fact that most of the people that are going to quit are still in the middle of their subscriptions, 2009 could be the most lag free year in Eve's history

The API has always been disabled for unsubbed accounts.
It's a bare faced lie if CCP are leading people to believe that the ridiculously called "Ghost training" actually puts more of a load on the server.
It does not put any load whatsoever on the server as the end time of the skill is calculated when the skill is started, in fact disabling it actually puts a strain on the server as the server has to check at downtime which accounts have run out and disable training on those accounts.
This was and is pure and simple a way for CCP to squeeze more money out of people.

False. I regularly let my main (and only) account close when I did not have the inclination or time to actively play. The API let me keep an eye on my wallet balance to see what had sold.
It was disabled probably 2 or 3 months ago for closed accounts. It'd be pure speculation, but it's possible CCP were testing the waters with that change to see what they could do before people screamed.
Ok, I just remember that Evemon would not autoupdate if your account wasn't subbed. Dunno how long it's been like that though.
