Hey all, I’ll get right down to it, I’ve got 12 accounts, 1 is active. Now atm I don’t have time at all to play EVE. Now this is only a suggestion, I don’t mind PAYING (pls note CCP) to activate all my accounts so that I can put in a very long skill training queue in all of them and then deactivating them again with the hope of them training skills deactivated!!!!!!
My reason for doing this is I want to play in the future with those accounts and it would be very cool if they were trained up to some extend.
Pls consider this (it would be nice bursts of cash for u CCP, if this would be allowed something to think about buinessesly speaking ofc)

I keep 11 accounts active, and I pay for all of them for them to be active.

What you are asking is to have unlimited skill queue as it is now and also have it learn while they are unsubbed?

Wont write anymore things here, otherwise ISD Ezwal will lock this thread.

Why don't we just petition CCP to give each of us 10-15 chars with ALL skill to 5 while you're at it? You do understand that the benefits of skillpoints being awarded while you are offline is only relevant to accounts that are active. Cuz, seems to me, you'd like CCP to keep spending money on their servers, giving you the full benefit while you give them nothing in return.

Was it really necessary to post this here and in F&I?

The feature you want was removed some years ago, here is the DevBlog on Ghost trainings removal.

This is, without a doubt, one of the most asinine ideas I have ever seen on this, or any other forum, ever.

Seriously, this has to be a troll.

Will I get banned for boxing!?!?!

This was a problem that CCP defined back in the day as "ghost training". People would online their alts and put the longest skill possible on before the end of the account and they would get like 2+ months of training depending on the skill which CCP deemed they were losing out on the money for their parties and have since corrected that issue.

Any consideration of the impact this would have on character prices in the Character Bazaar, and the effect it will have in the long term on the value of skill points?

No offense LOF, but this idea is so ridiculous that trying to have a serious debate about the pros and cons is like trying to discuss the pros and cons of curing Ebola by dunking the patient in acid and lighting them on fire.

Some ideas are just Bad and they deserve to be culled based solely on how bad they are.

No.

Also the ISD should have locked this already as redundant. As well as cross posting and reposting. I could go on but........
