No life without death.

And yet in eve death , permadeath, doesnt seem to exist. As long as you dont voluntarely biomass your character, the character keeps aging further.

Lets ccp kill all characters after f.e. 15 (earth) years. This way new characters will be able to compete with old characters and it will probably also solve a lot of other issues.

Old players who have a f.e. 12 year old character, can then begin a new character in time, to be able to have a capable character of 3 years old by the time there 15 year old character dies, furtherig their dynasty. P

Such a stupid idea Shocked

EVEBoard ...Just over 60million skill points, each skill was chosen for a reason. I closed my eyes & clicked another skill to train... "BINGO...!!!" ... "This time i got something usefull"

People who have been doing something a long time are better at it than people who haven't, what a shocker Shocked

Even with your laughable idea newer players still wouldn't be able to compete on a level playing field with a character, of the same age or indeed younger, in the hands of an older and much more experienced player.

CCP can remove SP, they can't remove the things a player learns through experience.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Similarly, I'm thinking in real life we should off people on their 30th birthday to give the young folks a chance to prosper

If you popose that, i also want the ability to mate with another player, producing my own offspring which is a somewhat less capable version of me and my partner...

This would allow me to have a real dynasty, and give me something to do in those lonely nights at the station...

Maybe add a parenting option (Char does not consume a character slot and learns from me while i take them on a trip?

I say we kill everybody over 70 in real life because all they do is eat, sleep, and socialize and are a burden on society.

This is a signature.

It has a 25m signature.

No it's not a cosmic signature.

Probably.

You do know a Capsuleer is only as old as their current clone right? Stuff like scars, wrinkles and birthmarks are all cosmetic and determined by the cloning contract? They are still a clump of (highly reusable) biomass in the shape of a person.

It is a common joke on the Roleplaying forums that the best cure for an hangover is to just kill yourself and get a new clone. That's a good use for immortality, am I right?

So yeah, you are the dumb. Learn some lore ya big nerd!
