Why do people even care about this? So people can buy a little extra speed for their skilling, so what? I've played and paid for this game almost 10 years now and I don't give a **** about this (beyond the hilarious response it has gotten on the forums). Why do you?


Because this is "even more" pay to win in a subscription game.
I know one could discuss about this all day long but: with plex and eve´s gameplay featuring bigger ships, bigger blobs - even now the rl wallet may decide who´s winning if opponents are equally skilled.

- if you only pay your monthly subscription you need to farm / earn all the isk you need to play eve
- if you additionally throw money at ccp you can get rid of that part completely
- you can additionally pay for simultanious training of another char on your account...
- and so on...
- your ability to spend additional money shapes and formes your gaming experience in a major way, many of this features reminds me of things like maybe additional inventar slots in pay to win games
- is eve providing equal possibilities and fair chances for everyone like it should be (in a subscription game)
- does this even sound like a monthly subscription game any more?

Also you can´t compare this SP selling and buying with the existing character bazaar, because this allows you to carefully craft a character the way you choose if you throw enough money at it.

The planned future of eve is getting more and more obvious. But please: This is not a stealth microtransaction game for rich ******

This is a covered skills for rl money exchange - in it´s last consequence we could also delete the existing skillsystem now and buy skills directly from ccp instead of other players.

But then they thought greed is good - and they tried ... and tried again... and tried again...
It´s like the frog in boiling water.

Second and last comment to this:

I also doubt plex prices would drop - as it was mentioned here:

RL money / or Plex => Aurum => SP Package Transaction

If I understood this right this could only lead to rising plex prices - someone who gets aurum with RL cash doesn´t need to buy plex for the market - someone who uses plex to get aurum buys them off the market - please correct me if i´m wrong - but if not - expect plexes to skyrocket like never before...
