To increase income I’d add more varied plex/sub packages with stuff like accelerators maybe some ships and fits alot of alphas want barges if they upgrade include it in some deals.  
Lastly ■■■■ up skill farms this way players can’t push against cash shop injector sales which could be added.  
I’d add a beta clone type with only 1 can be loge at one time like alphas but costing less than omega and with less ships available.  
Lastly I’d severely reduce griefing across the game pve sells better than pvp can’t have some guy who spent thousands to make his officer missioning bs ganked by trashers or have players forced not to log in and play cuz of wardecs.  
Mark my words your current rampant in game activities will be severely shortened at the end of the day a farmer or a pvper pays same money

Just want to add again that I think **nothing will change** , but if you REALLY must make a big drama out of this and quit in a public display, at least **contract me all your stuff**.

I will screenshot it and post it here so we all know you are serious about it and don’t just talk.

> [@Mr\_Epeen](#):

> Seriously, dude. The same reason your printer was sold to you for half what it cost to manufacture it.

Serioiusly?

No. Competition is why Mr. Coffee type coffee makers are now so cheap. No business is going to sell you something for “half what it costs to make it”.\*

\*The exception being things like video games where they sell the console at a discount and make it up on the sale of games.

> [@Mr\_Epeen](#):
>
> Plus, it was always super cheap to make.

Yes, but why is that? Competition. The first Mr. Coffee was quite expensive to make, but competition lead to a reduction in those costs, so much so that now it costs 1/10th the cost.

> [@Mr\_Epeen](#):
>
> Create a solution and then use an ad company to fabricate a problem for it.

Uhhh, no. Percolators made coffee using water at 212 degrees which lead to a bitter taste. Mr. Coffee and its follow ons made coffee at 200 degrees which produced a better tasting coffee.

> [@Mr\_Epeen](#):
>
> Then get frightened, or lonely, or needy, or fashion forward, or etc, etc etc to buy it for a markup in the thousands of percent.

Yes, your consumption expenditures have to do with fear, loneliness, neediness, fashion etc. Please. Look at what you are saying. You are saying you are a moron when it comes to consumption expenditures. A complete idiot who is not in control of himself. That these marketing executives are playing for a total fool. You see an ad and there you go, off to buy that stuff you don’t need or even want. That you are helpless to their wizardry…yet you know this and are still a moron anyways.

So tell me, when CCP uses marketing to tell you to get 3 more subs do you do it? When they use marketing to get you to buy PLEX you don’t need do you do it? According to you, the answer must be yes. Or are you one of the “special people” who can see the truth and thus are not affected by it?

Im taking your word for it. If they remove alpha I am, leaving EVE and would be going to DarkSpace or Fractured Space.

Actually it is garbage. Remove PLEX…one of the most successful things CCP has one that undercuts third party RMT and generates additional revenue for CCP? Yeah…sure.

You are assuming EVE players are just like BDO players…I think that is a bad assumption.

World population is in the 2 billions. 9.5 m can be the entire china south Korea, and maybe japan. Literally no America or Europe in it.
