No. The idea was rejected 1½ years ago and it's still as horrid as it was back then.

I think you need to grab a hold of yourself and realize the amazing potential of this great idea!

You mean “amazing potential” as in “rendering large portions of the character mechanics obsolete”?

Yeah, it has great potential for that. The problem is that this potential is bad for the game.

It will always be shot down. not because its a good or bad idea but because if people did it the hard way for years they dont want new players getting an advantage and not having to tough it out like they did.

That is the real reason the player base dont want it happening

Or is would spike the plex market and people dont want to pay even more for there plexes.



I dont normally troll, but when i do i do it on General Discussion.

Bad for the game in what aspect if you do not mind me being so bold to ask. Skipping a couple of minutes hours days so you can actually go out and fly your ****?

I just want more people to come out and pew pew is all.

Smack daddy spot on Karn.

People, however need to get they're heads out of they're asses and smell the sunshine. OMG not 1999 all over again!

No, because it gives the more affluent players an advantage. Seriously, **** that.

You do realise that this would benefit older players far more than new ones, right? Malcanis' Law is in full effect here…

Bad for the game because it allows rich players to ignore fundamental game mechanics.

One should never be able to spend real money to affect game mechanics, ever. This isn't some crummy f2p Kmmo.

I don't always use hax. But when I do, it's because I'm an NPC.. http://i.imgur.com/PUZou.jpg

Would you be referring to the same affluent players that can (and do) already buy super caps and Titans with plex and also purchase with plex the pilots with which to fly them?

The can of worms was opened when GTCs could be turned into ISK as well as game time. Might as well go all the way, right?

Personally, I would buy a one time 100k sp reallocation to tidy up my older characters skill sheets.

OP please go back to 'Call of Duty' and quit trying to turn Eve into a FPS. Then when Dust 8675309 comes out you can come back and play a game more to your liking.

Apparently its Taboo to suggest linking PLEX to anything other then gametime.

OP, you'll be better off suggesting 500mil ISK for remap and then let players buy plex with cash and convert it to ISK to buy the remap.

Just as awful for the same reasons. Tying it to PLEX is not really a factor — it's the idea itself that is horrid.

Make it cost 12 plexes!

Other than that no. its a service I cant use anyways. CCP says I owes them two points and I am not giving it to them.
That also I suffer from clinical Lycanthrophe.

No, should be at least 60 plex. Make it sting even for those that can afford it.

It is not taboo, it is just not good for the game.

I agree, it is a horrible idea, I may have been misunderstood. I was just trying to tell the OP not to mention the PLEX word in connection to anything on the forums and to rephrase his suggestion in terms of ISK instead.
