Is that 2 million on the market or on accounts and the market? If it is the latter, deduct those Gnosis for accounts that have lapsed.

I dont want to pay for the game and be called an omega /lowest of animal hierarchy/. >..>

The intent was that these new structures would provide a sufficient force multiplier for small groups to defend against a somewhat larger group. Obviously if you upset a 1,000 man group as a 20 man group you should be steamrolled.
But they then designed the defences around AOE and Null, and failed to leave the highsec defences as much of a multiplier, so it won't do that. For an idea of something they could have done, rather than having just 2 launchers on the Ast. they could have made those 2 launchers able to engage up to 5 targets. So you can't nuke a single target, but you can engage a significant number of targets with each 'battery'. It would require some changes to how things work, and how things group, but that would allow for a structure to be a force multiplier in highsec still without being an instant nuke to any single ship.

Also for one easy way to reduce the 1,000 man corps deccing 20 man corps, while not making it impossible if the 20 man corp really does annoy them seriously. Flip the wardec costs to be based on the number of people in the attacking alliance. Not in the defending alliance (Or even in both, but just on the attacking alliance allows for larger groups to be harassed easily, which is actually a good thing). And accepting new members comes with a cost based on the number of wardecs you have active. Now you want to be small for cheap wardecs, but large to have enough numbers for defending your stuff and attacking other peoples stuff. Good counter pressures on Corp/Alliance size.

"The clone state prevents access to powerful skills like Cynosural Field Theory and Cloaking" is what the blog says about Alpha clones. There shouldn't be a worry about it. And, if someone trains up in those and then decides to become a free player, those skills, according to the blog, will simply become inaccessible. So, to assuage all of the concerns about someone slipping into low or null and cloaky camping, it should be alright...as far as that is concerned.

Introducing Clone States...

Alpha accounts will be able to launch only one game instance per computer? I can't launch Alpha if already have Omega running?
Please - let us to use at least 1 Alpha with 1 Omega! There is a lot of situations that require 2 pilots runing in same time to complete. Even simple moving in unknown low sec and nulls needs a scout. Some anomalies needs... What CCP offer to ppl in that case? Nothing. Force them to pay another account? This is not a offer - this is a force to pay twice for one game. And when i dont have a lot of time to login with these 2 accounts, they will burn the PLEXes doing nothig sitting offline... :(

And this is already second payment for same product. If CCP wana fair play they will not allow multiaccounting for all Omega-s!

That's just crazy! My Wife and Son play with PAID accounts not because of the levels they can reach but because I genuinely believe funding EVE is the only way to keep it running. Under your idea, how could CCP know it's another real person and not me with multple computers under the same IP address? So only 1 person per house may play?

I agree with the deleting unused accounts idea, but you should change it to 1 year without inactivity for Omega accounts and 6 months for Alpha accounts. Just my opinion. I know you (CCP) set the language to say 90 days for legal reasons. I feel bad for the people who work at CCP, bet all these legal changes have the mood in a not-so-good state around the office.

WarDec's in High Sec are not fixable. They just don't go together. There are too many starter corps trying to skill train for it to exist the way it is. Either dump them or make it only if it's by mutual agreement.

The hardware profile of your machine might just give CCP a little hint of what you are doing - To get yourself banned.

Hint; Go read the EULA

While you may get away with it for a while, eventually the security team will stumble across you and when they do that ban hammer swings fast.
An alternative to beating the EULA would be to use a second machine on the same network and tell CCP it is your son, daughter, wife or pet dog (Ralph) playing the account - Again, just don't get caught.

The far safest way to ensure you don't get banned, is to not breach the EULA.

Being a multiboxer I was at first a little disappointed with the limits on logons for Alpha's. After thinking about it, I came around and realized, Alpha accounts were never meant for multiboxers and had the potential to simply break parts of Eve gameplay.

If you need a second account (or more), there are hundreds if not thousands of ways to pay for it in game without using Alpha's to prop up your one man (or woman) fleet.

What does this mean exactly ?
I could go to coffee shop and try to play eve online on my notebook, but because their wi-fi is free and open, someone 150 meters away could also try to play eve online with alpha character via their wi-fi (same ip).

Does this mean i will not be able to connect via the same ip or is this locked onto device (as per device) ?

As dynamic IP's are the most common these days I would imagine logins would be via device not IP.
