EVE General Discussion

I only have one question OP: what are you trying to fix?

This doesn't seem to do anything except make those who play more than x number fo hours have to pay more (btw, for those who are below the legal job age during summer vacation, 150 hours of EVE is less than a week).

This isn't the same idea though. Its a far cry from "you can use a micro plex for a week or 35 hours, which ever comes first".

CCP's micro plex, like 15 days. its cute and all, yet its still 15 days. not less in pure hours as the OP would want.

ROFL...wait did this moron just say that he wants CCP to charge me more if I play more than 150 hours? That's a joke right? Yeah you'll screw over those few characters that afk full time but you **** everyone who plays the game more than you do.

on another note,

Right now I'm paying whatever a month costs. You are suggesting that I should get less than I am already paying for for the same amount of money.

If you don't understand why that is a bad idea then you aren't "trolling", just bad at math.

Yet you are suggesting that we should get less than what we are already paying.

Just because you seem to have missed what I said earlier, here it is again;

Summer Holidays, Winter Holidays, any holidays, disabled people who don't work, old people who are retired.

Hopefully it is clear enough now. In all the above instances, people can and do play more than 150 hours a month. Even those with jobs. Your "idea" would curtail peoples play time during their holiday periods, not to mention disabled or retired people on lower incomes, unless of course they wanted to pay even more for the privilege of playing.

And calling people knob-ends just proves you are the poorest of trolls.

I could, and I have.
I work full time yet I get 4 days off a week.
10 hour days of semi afk behavior for the majority of the time.
Is that afk cloaked in nul making people parinoid? no.
Its guarding exits in wormholes and keep track of incoming and outgoing traffic, or scouting lowsec routes to pull in more fuel. Much of this takes tons of time with no immediate profit.
You are suggesting we get less than what we pay for currently. it's math. Doesn't matter what you think the majority might do on average yet its our option and right to play the game for as many hours as we would like within a month.
This shouldn't be calculated some some vague isk/hr ratio as depending on how you play you may always be dirt poor, or you make more money than you know what to do with.

Instead of this poorly thought out idea. Why not think of new mechanics that do the same exact function. Give Cloaks a 3600s activation that cant be auto cycled. Change mining grids daily like scan sites, or large sites with different ore locations which would likely be Ring mining. Can old static DED sites or make the rewards for killing those specific ships acquire diminishing returns so you cant blap them all day in Domies.

If you are indeed serious about trying to stop specific behaviors, quit trying to ram a square peg into a round hole.

10/10 on your troll post OP.

Successful troll is successful.

One thinks it is you that does not understand the point you were trying to make. I play about 30 hours a month these days & still wouldn't pick the 150 hour option, because losing training time & market orders wouldn't compliment my play style. And yes, you did bring it across as a choice that the user picks, so back-tracking doesn't bring you any credibility at this point.

Your idea, if serious, is a terrible idea. No one would use it & it would lower CCP potential income per month which is never a good choice from a business standpoint.
