Aside from a death tax that increases the longer you play the game and a nasty trap for noobs, what useful thing do the limited SP clones add to the game?

Let me add to this, if I forgot to pay the tax and subsequently my SP got reduced to 900k, I would never be playing eve again, that is literally years of training, paid for by my subscription $.

First of all, according to the wiki [1], you can only lose at most 2mil SP by getting podded in an uninsured clone.

Secondly, death has consequences. nuff said.

If you're gonna post here thinking your idea is the greatest thing since bacon and that it will save EVE and possibly all humankind with it, you're gonna have a bad time.

It's an ISK sink. Deal with it.

It's a fairly stupid ISK sink, it doesn't really sink that much overall and it punishes people who PvP and longer standing players.
