Again just putting it out there for thourghts.

We pay for SP each month, I think that if we are ever to biomass a toon for what ever reason we should get the SP back to spend on that account/toon slot. Now I dont think we should get 100% back either because that would enable people to be able to have say a 50m SP miner, biomass him and recrete him as a 50m SP fighter pilot, and this mechanic would be terrable. I think maybe 75% back would surfice, so a new toon could 'started over' but the 50m SP miner would think twice about doing it.

Again its the SP that we really pay for each month when you subscribe to EVE, not isk/ship or anything else (yes you can buy plex sell for isk but that is getting technical) If you dont log in over that month your toon still trains and increases SP.

SO in any other MMO, when you delete a character you should get all or some part of their XP since you "paid for the game?"


Sorry bub that's one lame idea.

Stop me from training a hundred Power of Two accounts, transferring the chars two by two to my main account, biomassing them, and having All Level 5's in a few months.

I don't believe that I'm going to say this, but Sell the Character on the Character Bazaar and then Buy one with the skills you want.

No thanks. All SP remapping ideas are inherently horrible and don't solve anything anyway.

If you want to keep the SP, just keep the character and keep building it in a different direction.

Lol sell 10 PLEX, and start buying too to put in the SP juicer and total all that sticky SP into ur main. BLAM then u should start wearing a cape cause he'll be super soon enough.

if this is about changing your character's appearance, then why go the hard route? Ask for a face lift that doesn't cost some of your SP. If this is about erasing a bad past, then HTFU and STFU. It's not going to happen. You pay for your mistakes in EVE.

Whenever individuals post ridiculous ideas, their character should automatically be bio-massed and turned to taxidermy.

Oh a heads up.
You don't pay for SP each month, you pay for use of the client and access to the CCP servers. What you do with that time, is down to you.
