Its come to the point where whats the point of buying a plex for gametime with isk in game with prices reaching ridiculous cost. With rich players manipulating the market to plex for video cards which is having a major impact of plex's. Plex's a year ago were around 320mil average to now i am seeing 550mil average today. That is a 230mil increase over a year for a gametime card not anything to do with actual gameplay in-game. So in my thoughts i think either some regualtions need to come into play since this is a money transaction item in which is controlled by players or stopping the 30 day plex's in eve where no one can purchase and sell anymore.

CCP should put a cap on 30 Day Plex's or remove from game. Its becoming a pointless item and not doing as intended which, from what I can see people buying raising people buying and raising, just to make isk off of the item instead of doing as intended and giving people the option to get gametime without paying with real money for a reasonable cost. Its to the point where paying the 15 bucks for the month sub is better then in-game timecodes. Other people's thoughts?

In Before - Your poor. ( Wrong )
In Before - Can I has your stuff. ( Not Quitting )
In Before - Just shut up. ( No I won't)

This topic is going places!

Easy solution: Make it the same cost to buy PLEX as it is to pay for a subscription. That would fix it.

...to plex for video cards which is having a major impact of plex's

The offer is limited and hasn't even gone live yet and it's for a videocard noone except someone living in a third world country slum would care about...

My final say on this, I like the plex system, but i think its not doing as i think was intended was to give people who dont have money in rl an opportunity to get gametime at reasonable in-game currency. Using it to buy video cards or clothing for one is just ridiculous should not be allowed, should just charge people certain amount of isk for those items. about 80% market up from a year ago something is wrong, i can understand maybe 20% maybe 30% because of economic reasons but I thik plex's are being thrown around to purchase items and not for as for what was reaslly intended which was "give player gametime." That is all off to the next whine topic.

Can you find the CCP quote that said PLEX are intended to give people who don't have money in RL an opportunity to get gametime at a reasonable in-game currency? I think PLEX were intended to counter RMT with their own version where people pay more for a PLEX than the monthly subscription rate.

I'm not buying a PLEX with real money until they're worth about 1 billion ISK.

Shouldn't be long now.

1. STOP hunting bounties
2. STOP running incursions.
3. STOP wormhole mining.

Stop all the above and inflation will go away.

Monthly ISK gain currently is 50 trillion
Monthly ISK sink currently is only 26 trillion

Your money will devalue unless more sinks are introduced and ISK prices will continue to rise.

At this rate shooting asteroids may be more profitable then even hunting bounties.

In the future everyone will be a miner.

CCP removes 2000 PLEX from the game with the Gfx card for PLEX campaign.

Think about it. This surely has a bad impact on PLEX ISK prices and CCP 100% knows that. I can't see how they "want" to let content creators play for ISK.

The purpose of PLEX is for people to sell it at a profit, not for you to get game time. Sorry.
