And why would they do that when they can make a crap ton more on elitist that want to be the first to get a insta-maxed char before anyone else to be known as the first pilot to max Eve?

The CCP you knew and greatly respected in the past are long gone. Todays CCP are no longer game developers, they are businessmen.

He did it with RMTing on Twitch, which is banned by CCP.
"Subs get 4x Iron Modifier" - thats what his channel says.
And exactly this is not allowed. When you do raffles like that, everybody has to get the same chances - and not "people that gave me real money get more chances to get stuff ingame".

Is there any place to report this guy? Support tickets maybe? I mean, this is clearly against the EULA

I'm not a communist, although I do think pure communism is the best system, but pure communism doesn't exist where humans are concerned because they are to easy to corrupt.

They just opted to listen to those who weren't completely opposed to the idea of SP trading. Within that minority, the ones intending to swap around skills on high-SP characters were the majority. At least that's my impression.

CCP just lisened to the community - somewhat selectively, but they did. And that's what we ended up with.

Really, I don't know why this continually bothers players. It's no different than the fact that most of us will never own a Titan, either.

I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week.

Logon statistics for that character is rather odd.. If you check the date of birth.

Time online: 53d 18h 37m
Daily average: 17d 22h 12m 20s
Logon count: 532

EVEBoard ...Just over 60million skill points, each skill was chosen for a reason. I closed my eyes & clicked another skill to train... "BINGO...!!!" ... "This time i got something usefull"

Injections and extractions should have been limited to maybe 10million or so SP per year, this might be seen as a low number but it reflects my low opinion of this change.

Whatever an unbiased limit may have been there should have at least been a limit in the first place, the limit could have even been increased yearly over time to at least try to soften the impact. Maybe medical clone costs could have kept this kind of change in check?

Unfortunately the damage is done, I can't see a realistic way of undoing this. Reintroducing medial clone costs for the high end of the SP scale could help but even this has potential issues. Maybe characters that inject SP should get an indicator on their character information so they can easily targeted :)

I would second that, spot on, I know we have had our differences but you called this so right.

Do I give a monkies, nope, if he wants to waste trillions that's the stupidity of him and all those people who went on that stupid betting site, me I am at 110 m SP and I will continue playing my way, that person has no impact on me at all, by the very fact he did it makes him a loser in my book, why not spend that ISK to make a space empire, nope, he has not got it in him...

When the going gets tough the Gankers get their CSM rep to change mechanics in their favour.

Not only was this a sh i tty idea that somehow the community at large fell for from the start (u can already buy characters!!!!!!), but secondly I can't believe there is no limit put in in any shape or form. I saw another post suggesting the face of your avatar turns blue if you inject too much, SOME kind of consequence for doing this was necessary to the very least.

IMO it's already messed up, new players needed some kind of 'scapegoat' which was skills to understand EVE before losing all their ****. The new standard on buying SP will ruin new player experiences as they won't have the patience.

I disagree

I know what you mean, I went and bought a 6 month sub before Christmas. Now I feel like I might as well play WoWS; it has better ship-to-ship combat and has about as much meaning attached. EvE has changed from being the harsh cold technologically plausible universe that it once was to a hollow shell. Change after change has stripped life from the game with even small things such as the MWD name changes have been a part of this. Once upon a time this game felt like an ultra-harsh version of real life set in space, the ultimate sci-fi simulator. Now it feels like a bunch of bored kids throwing sand at each other, where losses don't matter because isk is easily farmable, where play time no longer matters because you can buy your way there. I'm struggling to justify continuing my subscription once it runs out, this game no longer feels like an MMO but instead more like FarmVille.

CCP have lost heir original vision of eve, the have caved into players always asking for more. They will never have enough and chasing their demands will run the game into the ground. When eve was the best sci-fi sim around it always had that niche, now I worry it's losing it's unique features and becoming another bland commercialised game.

This post brought to you by CCP's alpha forum alt initiative. Playing the eve forums has never come cheaper.
