I think my recent idea of a market mini-game to pwn your opponents and send them to the bottom of the sell order list is probably the stupidest idea ever proposed.

At least that was what I was aiming for.

HOLY ****!!! That's actually real?! I always thought it was a South Park joke!?

I seriously just screamed in the middle of my own living room. My wife is giving me a look...

Ok, calming down now...

The worst idea I've ever heard proposed was a suggestion that if ten players all voted for it, to give an "offending" player a 24 hour ban from the game. Like that wouldn't be abused...Roll

Double awards for you!

As the first poster to comment in a thread that is specifically about not responding or commenting on ideas.

And because you confirm my suspicions that players who want clone costs lowered are the type of people who feel that rules are really only for others to follow.

One i seen yesterday actually. Some genius proposing diminishing returns on warp scrams n disruptors.

After the patch we're giving the market some gentle supply restriction, like tying one wrist to the bedpost loosely with soft silk rope. Just enough to make things a bit more exciting for the market, not enough to make a safeword necessary.  -Fozzie

Thats not true at all. I think the clone cost thing was ridicules and it's only 30% less ridicules now.

The problem with it is that it's anti-PVP in a game that features PVP. Many players with high skill points stopped putting their characters in cheap/fun ships like frigs and cruisers after the clone cost got too high.

A game with a virtual economy dependent on ships exploding should NOT discourage people from exploding ships.

That being siad i think some clone cost is good (EVE needs every isk sink it can get and losing stuff is a core part of what makes EVE great) but it has to be balanced with actual human nature and the fact is that many people won't fly a 20 mil isk ship when it costs them 50 mil to replace a clone ON TOP of whatever implants you may have lost. A more rational clone cost system could remove a barrier to pvp for some older players/characters.

So, you are saying starting WiS, was the dumbest idea in Eve? Well I have to agree with you on that.

anything with the words AFK and CLOAKING and FIX.

All those ideas are horrible and are actually stealth tears.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?
