CCP, What mechanism are you going to put in-place to stop multiple alpha accounts being setup, training up, only to be converted for a month to omega and then have the skill points extracted?

You would have to plex all those accounts just to get a single injector. That is not profitable. Additionally, the dev blog states that they would limit the Alpha skills from being extracted.

Also, this will get locked...

You earn 3-4 skill extractors worth of SP a month not one. It is very much profitable (at least based on current prices). I don't expect them to remain very profitable with the reduced upfront cost going from ~3 Billion to ~1 Billion. Fortunately it will probably be a good few months once they're released for the to reach the 5 million or so SP mark with the reduced speed.

Oh yeah, true. For some reason I thought it would only be one injector.

When you don't know the difference between there, their, and they're, you come across as being so uneducated that your viewpoint can be safely dismissed. The literate is unlikely to learn much from the illiterate.
