Will bring a lot more competition to the game for isks.
Will create a huge isks dumping system.
And more..

0/10, nobody could possibly be this stupid. Thread should be locked for trolling badly.

No

Someone is making the isk so the game is played, There is a reason for the RL$ for plex, the money goes to CCP who owns the plex in the first placed which is traded for isk or Aur

Plexes are also directly supporting the pay to win scheme as of now.

Without a way to get isks using real money, only people that actually play the game as its supposed would have the goodies.


Right now if i wany a titan i just buy it with real money.

100% pay to win.



People would actully care about fighting for the best systems and also care a whole lot more about losing isks.

The person making the isks would make them either way to pay for his account, only this time wouldny be GIVING the isks to someone else that paid real money for those isks. Pay to win.

No way!
Your suggestion would make an end to rookieship killmails with 20 plexes in cargo.

No Smile

Players who own the isk should be allowed to trade for plex to buy time for their accounts. Players who don't have time can buy time from CCP and trade it for isk from those who have it.

The isk is being played n traded, time changes hands, the game goes on. No one is hurt, move along, nothing to see here.Blink

The reason PLEX were introduced was to stop the RMT that was happening on mass.

So removing them would just start the whole RMT thing up again.

Any spelling, grammatical and punctuation errors are because frankly, I don't care!!

I think somebody does not understand the pay to win concept...

Stupidity can't by cured unless the one accused of it is willing to learn to fix their mistake. Stupid alts posting stupid threads is almost a pandemic here in GD.

Owning a Titan means I win? I'm going to get myself 2 because I want to win twice as hard! Also, OP, you can buy as many PLEX as you'd like, you're still going to lose.
