Alpha clones; a menace to eve

I think this Raxor8lade is actually an Aiko alt,

I don’t have any alts. Solo player here.

You forgot to tell me to calm down, but that’s okay.

Speculation aside, people need to realize that being habitual alphas denies you so much.

I say it should limit them even more…no more faction fits, limiting to a few noob systems (Hubs are off limits) and no local contact.

This game is overcrowded with freeloading whiners and it makes me sad.

PLEX has only been a thing for about 20 years, but it’s going to be the end of Eve?

At no point did I say PLEX, in and of itself, is the end of EVE. In fact, I never said EVE was dying. I stated the opposite, citing F2P/PLEX as revitalizing EVE and generating more revenue. I stated the game was in decline (or more aptly, stagnation) in terms of development.

@Shion_Ishii

Now EVE is NOT in financial decline because F2P models generate more revenue. A way to eke out a few dollars here and there from even the poors who would normally just pass on the game. There would probably be no EVE without F2P/Alphas.

See the point is that whales (and PLEX) actually SUSTAINS EVE, but at the cost of making player input and the development of game design irrelevant. I do love when people cherry pick one thing and blow it out of proportion, ignoring the main point. And you folks just make up strawman arguments and just run with them. It’s truly amazing to see the lack of reading comprehension mixed with being so confidently wrong.

@Shion_Ishii

No, if anything is ruining the game in terms of its development it is whales and PLEXers of any ilk. And people buying Omega in bulk. BUT MOSTLY THE WHALES. This is what allows them to ignore players and not feel obligated to earn their sub money.
