The Paragon Services; Achievements is one of the items I am talking about, It would be nice if older player got credit for what we have all ready done in the game. When new features come into play why is it that The older player get do not get credit for what we have done in the game. Is it a feature to make us play more to get this new feature done as if our past play time does not matter. ---

Heck, if I got 500K ISK for every 3 jumps I’ve ever done in EVE…I’d be an ISK trillionaire. I do recall one year, probably 2023, where I got an email saying I was in the top 1% of jumps made that year. ---

It’s not really necessary because most of these ‘‘achievements’’ I’ve looked at barely require any game play effort at all. Take ‘Market Tycoon’ for example. 2.5b ISK in sales on the market is all you need to get that achievement. And that is the highest one for trading! Is it really an achievement, though, when real market traders’ trade value is in trillions? I don’t think so. It’s a useless gimmick added to the game to catch those short-attention-span migrant players to get them to stick around. Nobody tells them 2.5b in sales is worthless. Likewise for all the other ‘‘achievements’’. They don’t mean anything when you’ve played this game longer than a month. So why would you want those ridiculous tags on your profile? * * * PS. We are still waiting for the achievment score to be made optional on character info window. ---

They should change BIG SPENDER to “I BOUGHT PLEX”. ---

Because the compute required to go back over 20 years of data isn’t worth the hassle for something entirely cosmetic ---

> [@Aiko\_Danuja](#): > > They should change BIG SPENDER to “I BOUGHT PLEX”. Or: ‘‘I Bought PLEX, Injected 100m SP, and Then Extracted 50m SP’’. That one should be a permanent non-removable title for everyone to see, once achieved.
