So, in my illustrious career I've amounted little bits of LP for a mass of different corps, but a lot of the time after moving on I still have 100 or so LP left clogging up my journal.

Would anyone else like a way to spend 1LP on something or even just delete LP?

I've often wanted to be able to delete SP, but LP?

I don't see why not, to be honest. It should be yours to do with as you want.

I support this only because I want to see the nervous breakdown of someone accidentally deleting their LP.

Some people are neat freaks and don't like useless crap lying about. I for one will never understand them, but I respect their life choices.

I'm one of those people. But instead of deleting mining or industry, I'll just train it to V so it looks right.

Just a simple "Donate" button, much like the "Give Money" window, would do fine.

And a button in the Preference window to turn "Off" (ie, auto-reject) incoming donations, if so desired.

Easy.

This would make buying/selling LP so much easier. Unfortunately, it does not fit into lore or make sense to transfer loyalty, so ccp will probably never implement it.

If you want to compare loyalty points to real life loyalty programs, find me a loyalty program in real life where a company pays its employees in loyalty points. Because unless the loyalty points are flowing from the company to the employee, it can't be compared to Eve LP because it not similar in anything but name.

Not that I care much about the lore. What I do care about is that cashing out large amounts of LP is annoying and not friendly to new players.

Why not adding the option to use LP for bounties? im sure CCP could find some mechanic to make determining value work.

Cause I know what I'd do, same thing I do with any small change of ISK i have over the nearest solid number, add to the bounty on Sansha Kuvakei TwistedBig smile

no but seriously, he needs to log back in, oldest EVE character ingame at 109 years Shocked

most mining towns used to pay employees in "loyalty points", that is, a currency they could exchange for goods necessary to their survival that could only be spent at the company store.

i think there are still some companies in other countries that do something similar.

its a way to force people to live in a ****** town/location and force their family into debt with the company so that they cant afford to ever quit and leave, and force their children to eventually work for the company aswell.

its basically slavery. thank god it was abolished in america for the most part, ause i know what *I* would do if my job tried to pay me in funbucks.
