Or yeah uhm just stop the bias and gifting **** and uhm have a sandbox space MMO. Then again if you were to do that you'd have a successful game and a successful company which would have no reason to fire tons of people and where is the fun in that?

Instead we have a game that could have mass appeal but it is instead targeted to a small group of people while the rest are just left rage quiting. What's that I can't hear you over all these free ships Somer blink is getting or all these T2BPO's hitting the pet player accounts or those 5 dudes who have ISboxed or just plain botted upwards of 500 accounts spiking PLEX through the roof and deterring new players.

Personally alongside removing T2BPO I'd go for a complete server restart with a new company focus on a sandbox insuring a completely fair and unbiased space sim. I'm crazy though and I hate firing employee's so my idea will go over the heads of CCP and their pet player base.

The only people at CCP who agree with me on T2BPO's are those moving their **** out in cardboard boxes and even they loved T2BPO's 20 seconds before the naive fools :)

I can't believe people are falling for this bit of Goon misinformation. It's ridiculous.

What worse is people who have identified themselves as owning a BPO are getting emails similar to the one below, and I'm sure some of them are falling for it. Seriously, if T2 BPOs are getting removed, what possible reason could there be for wanting to buy one? I guess what P.T. Barnum said is true: there's one born every minute.

You don't use it, allegedly. The nerfs are coming. Want to trade for cold hard isk?

Like I said.

Any fix to industry that does not have T2BPO's removed is a polished turd. The Devs at CCP are choosing a bias in game item over their own employee's RL careers and that bewilders me.

When and how T II BPO's will be removed and if, how or in what form owners will be compensated is not known. CCP will make that information public if and when they decide it is time to do so. Until then, any thread on it can only be based on speculation. Hence, thread locked.

The Rules:
31. Rumor mongering is prohibited.

Rumor threads and posts which are based off no actual solid information and are designed to either troll or annoy other users will be locked and removed. These kinds of threads and posts are detrimental to the well being and spirit of the EVE Online Community, and can create undue panic among forum users, as well as adding to the workload of our moderators.
