i think that after all plex is the one item that should not be speculated on the market ...

idea is easy, BAN buy orders on plex, and restrict amout of plexs you can buy to 3 per account per 30 day's. Blink

What possible purpose could this serve?

bad idea is bad. Just because plexes are getting more expensive doesn't mean we need to control the prices. It's the natural flow and ebb.

Also means no more 50 plex noobship kills either

can agree, would it be natural to pay 100$ for 1 L of water just because some one have money to take over total control?

The price of plex may rise, but the price of a monthly subscription does not. CCP will intervene to lower plex prices if and only if the high in-game price leads to a decrease in real-world profits.

it's not about " lower plex prices" it's about less market speculations.

people buy plex for $ to get isk, and people spend isk to get game time. and thats cool. but there are people that buy plex to for isk to get isk ... and that not cool at all, because they lift the prize a lot and dry up the market ...

Plex prices are rising because of increased demand without increased supply. It's that simple. There are several factors recently which have increased demand.
Market speculators are simply anticipating larger demand without larger supply and can end up getting stung if a large plex sale happens.

we don't control the prize .... just the amount of the plex you can buy.

no one said you can sell plex for more than 400m all right? just that you can't buy all the plex off the market just to make isk on it. Roll

there is nothing wrong with the plex it self, it's very cool. if it would be removed from the game i guess i and a loot of other people would stop playing the game.

and the RMT market would come back in full force.

not everyone can afford to pay for the game with real money. IF we cant play using game money, the game is too expensive and we will have to quit.

AS a merchant, I was able to get my plex with using a trial account. there were several other ways that could happen in the past, many of which are not possible at the current cost.. IF the cost of the plex goes up much more, that will be impossible for newbie players to do so. THAT could cost ccp players.

Yeah, thats true, but the OP's suggestion is not the way to go about it.

As I've said before - create global market for PLEX. Not region based, but global one for whole universe. Might slower price rising.

Damn capitalists.
We need a revolution clearly.

Money at its root is a form of rationing. When the richest 85 people have as much wealth as the poorest 3.5 billion (50% of humanity) it is clear where the source of poverty is. http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/jan/20/trickle-down-economics-broken-promise-richest-85
