PLEXING an account is a service that people somehow dont have the right to. By that logic people dont have the rigt to play the game at all. Lets just get some basic economics out the way. Plex is bought with real cash off of ccp. £=plex plex=gametime gametime=£ see the circle? When plex is too high (as voiced in multiple threads and even on youtube recently - yes, f’ing youtube…) people do not buy it what happens when people do not buy plex? two things less people/less content less £ to ccp. ---

I think many players here have a skewed vision of microeconomics perhaps. Largely in part to conflicting interests of the wallet kind. ---

Or maybe its just more time efficent to pay up the $15 than waste time in ever more boring farming in order to PLEX. ---

nah, reasonable pricing, and the price is to high; the evidence is clear on this thread; hell its natural clonekillers post ffs; and most of his kronies have a lot of isk.

I think $15 is reasonable. And like others have said, either flood the market, or stop buying it. But having a capitalist system, then complaining when it isnt in your favour seems… well, mah freedums? Just sayin’ ---

Really? So the price of say gold has a ceiling? How much is it? Seriously, who determines if 5m is too much? Why should it be? I think youll find EvE’s market is more highly regulated than real life. There’s only 1 authority after all. ---

Interesting that you mention gold. " Gold prices reveal the true state of U.S. economic health. When today’s [gold prices] are high, that signals the economy is not healthy" And yes, the price of gold does have a ceiling; amazing isnt it? Its around $1300 i believe but im not the expert. > [@Ma\_Baker\_McCandless](#): > > Seriously, who determines if 5m is too much? the players? ---

Your quote from Kimberly Amadeo doesn’t actually state anything other than her opinion about how gold affects the US economy. That’s fairly irrelevant though, as the US economy is not the world market in gold, and plenty of people would be glad for a rise in cost. TBH, Im not seeing an argument here for regulation, just poors complaining they cant PLEX from their AFKing. > [@Lugburz](#): > > the players? Then the players should do something about it as marketeers rather than begging for the state to alter the players greedy mistakes. ---

And yet the price still rises. Hmmm. I kinda hoped for a more mind changing arugment than “EvE is dying”. I suppose its less effort to be a quitter than do something about it, so I guess the game accurately simulates modern thinking about problems accurately. ---

The price of gold does not have a “ceiling”, as in the government came in and said “Gold can only cost X amount of dollars”. The ceiling you are referencing, is how markets have resistance points that the price have a hard time passing. That doesn’t mean, that these resistance points cannot be passed. Once one is passed, a new one is formed at some higher arbitrary point. It is all market forces that decide these. The reason why economy health can be linked to gold price, is very likely because gold’s price is rather stable. So if the purchasing power of for example a dollar drops, i.e. the economy is failing, it makes sense to invest in something less sensitive like gold. More investments, means more buyers, ergo price rising. ---

There’s no counter there, just “You are bad”. Seriously, is this us done? You havent actually given me a reason to change my mind. $15 subs \> PLEXing accounts, so no reason to complain about it unless you are a bum who cant afford to play the game. So why should you get a free pass? ---
