Hilarious karma in this thread. Bloodthirsty, uncompromising, ruthless Russians suddenly begging for help. The first to say don’t take it personally, suddenly looking for goodwill from their fellow man. Dosvidanya, komrade. ---

I agree, but now is _not_ the time to change the way subs are handled. ---

Why not? CCP is probably losing some revenue, if they can make up for the loss by ending the Russian discount and getting full price for the people who stay then it’s the sensible business choice to make. ---

And you havent read a word I have written. If you dont like it, choose another socio-economic system. Because when you choose Capitalism, you get price rises. And the system doesnt give a crap if you are from Texas, Beijing, or Ballymena. It doesnt care if you are sick, poor, or dying. Its there to make money, to make people rich. How is this so hard for you to understand? ---

> [@Barck](#): > > all this companies have business processes and price formation methods > specific brand of cars, electroinics, clothes you can buy on local markets everywhere. because companies think about things like this Yes, they do, but its neither based on flat GDP, average wage or a wish to be nice to people. Its based on data we are literally only speculating about and what it contains because I doubt any of us are privvy to CCP’s market research. Whether those are accurate or not, thats an entirely different matter. Do I think its right? No But my opinion on how businesses operate is utterly irrelevent to their decision making process until I choose to stop paying them money. ---

Agree. But, maybe, CCP has done the research and it’s more profitable to have it this way. Personally for me, the annual fee will be enough to think of other possible ways to spend such money (e.g. charity, it will be 1/2 of what I spend annualy on charity). I’ve canceled auto billing (after 7 years of “intermittent” subscription) and after a year of the prepaid subscription will decide the best course of action (to reduce active accounts, to buy PLEX with ISK). BTW the price of BigMac today in Moscow is 1.90 EUROs. And also there is opinion of economists that RUB is currently strongly underpriced on the market. ---

What’s karma? Do you really think that we are all clones here in Russia and all have a same thinking? Also I’m not “begging for help”. I express my opinion that people can do rash and stupid things, although earlier they seemed adequate. ---
