Lol, if this is already epic, what do you call this 150+ pages cacophony in the Information Portal forum? |

I reactivated my 2nd account with my credit card because of this change. Now I regret doing it. I mainly wanted a 2nd account cause it was cheap ISK-wise. Then GTC went up 87.5% in price, so I stopped buying them. But I was still willing to keep 2 accounts as long as I could stagger the payment and get a little more for my money.
To the poor fools who say it's just "cheapskate whining" -- guess what geniuses, if your account is inactive, YOU CAN'T PLAY ON IT. Therefore it's NOT EQUIVALENT. Some of us like to take breaks from the game! Now we can't! It was not only reasonable and correct, but SMART for CCP to allow inactive training. This is a real bonehead move on the part of CCP. But I doubt they will undo their decision anytime soon.
My only remaining question is whether or not this change could possibly bring down the ISK price of GTC's...

Just a heads up for those of you conglomerating accounts, ensure you switch characters from the accounts you permanently shut down before DOWNTIME on the end day in question, it does not run off of the Time in the real world.
Possibly something CCP should also implement is a minimal one day activation fee for those wanting to transfer characters from expired accounts onto another account.
Or have accounts go inactive at the end of the last day rather than Noon in Iceland... will avoid much ranting later on.

I don't think any one thing is going to make a huge dent in the EVE subscriberbase. However, within the last couple months they have crippled GTCs, many people are angry over the nano changes, and now ghost accounts... Those three things in such a short timespan may not kill eve, but they will hurt a lot.
BINGO@!

Nope, I don't think so. The supply of GTCs has a lot to do with the numbers of people deeply involved in the game and desirous of getting more ISK from time to time with which to buy goodies. I was one of those. Now CCP has killed off most of my interest, I'm reducing the number of accounts I keep active, and I find I have much less desire for or need for extra ISK. So I don't buy GTCs anymore and sell them for ISK.
Then there is the widespread tightening of RL wallets due to the financial meltdown, rising layoffs, and general fear and uncertainty regarding the future. My budget has tightened and that's another reason I no longer buy any GTCs at all to sell for ISK.
So, recent events at CCP and in the world in general are probably contracting the supply of GTCs for sale for ISK. I don't see this changing anytime soon.

Getting something for free isnt what its about
What? You don't make mistakes?
A company can't change their minds about a mistake that probable is embarrasing for them?
Pffff!
Grow up.
Let me preface what I am about to say with, "no ,you can't have my stuff."
I starting playing EVE at the tail-end of the t20 incident. CCP's blatant disrespect for their customers is just horrid and I had enough. I am a disheartened customer, if a waiter at a restaurant were to spit in your face I doubt you would want to continue your business at least with that individual.
When CCP got caught pants down over a barrel: slapping t20's wrist or "bug not feature" and to think the community would swallow their spin? It is insulting for any person's intelligence.
In the end CCP lost my business and my 4 accounts were paid for 99.9% of the time. I utilized ghost training on accident before I realized a billing error.
If you want "proof or stfu" please petition a GM and I will more than happy to confirm my 4 unsubscribed accounts. If you retort by saying go ahead leave EVE and it does not you four accounts, I say true 4 accounts is a small dent but hopefully I am the first snowflake in an avalanche.
In the end my money will no longer support a horrid corporation, if their is any justice hopefully one or two years from now I will be reading with glee on how CCP is closing Tranquility and they can point the avalanche started with this fiasco!
Now I am looking for EVE alternatives, any recommendations?
hahahahaaha, When does slander cause lawyers to get involved?
I like CCP.
I paid all my subscriptions like a good boy. And I didn't even notice there was a change until this topic. So let me end by saying "LOL"  |

Couldn't have we just let this thread ignobly die in 83 days? Why drag it up again?  |
