I agree that PLEX should be account locked after one sale but instead of being able to only activate it for yourself you should also be able to activate it on another person aswell. I understand this creates another option for scamming by players "selling PLEX activations" but I doubt anyone would fall for this, especially considering what a PLEX is worth.

This reduces PLEX liquidity, as any PLEX introduced to the market will only ever be there once. This means players will be forced to decide whether to buy them as they need them or stockpile them from the get go (creating a jump in the market).

Any change to PLEX and I just won't buy them anymore. Hope that is clear enough CCP, and CSM

I try to be nice and mind my business just shooting lasers at rocks. There is just way too many asshats in New Eden for that to happen.

But other people still will, and CCP would like to remove the number of PLEX that are being traded, AUR didn't really do a good job I'm guessing. If PLEX can seriously compete with ISK buying then you're ensuring the profits go to the company who does all the good work, rather than to bot groups. To accomplish this either botting must be completely removed or PLEX must become more valuable than a bots time.

Seriously you guys want to fix an imanginary problem over 150 million ISK. PLEX had been, until recenlty, hovering around 350 mil for over a year. PLEX is working as intended. There for leave it alone. Market manipulation is a part of EVE. Welcome to a differnt kind of PVP that dooesn't require shooting space lazors.

There is plenty of items to play market PVP with. Plex is the only one which should remain clear from that for the reasons I've already mentioned in my previous posts.

I'd like a straight answer from CCP just how much they've meddled in the PLEX market and in what direction.

Have they printed trillions of ISK and bought up PLEX with it or not?

All CCP meddling in the in-game economy needs to be fully disclosed.
