I haven’t dug into the $28 K skill injector story, but it sounds like hype to me.

I don’t know exactly how the price was determined, I posted that story to show how easily a brand new character can be quickly skilled up…

AFAIK people would even assume it is still me playing them.

Character transfers are documented under character info employment tab.

For this game, my definition of skilled gamer is that as long as you have fun playing, you are a skilled gamer. Of course, everyone’s source of happiness in the game is different.

That sounds like a slogan carved on a participation trophy. I think the word you’re looking for is satisfied instead of “skilled” (the latter of which has an actual meaning that differs from what you misuse it for).

Are those players who sell their long-held characters simply going to stop playing the game?

Not necessarily. It seems that characters, like most everything in N.E, are for sale. Some players create new characters, fill them up with skills then sell them and others sell their old redundant characters. With several accounts and two dozen characters, there is always incentives to make some isk.

You can do that, but does it mean you have to? And could you automatically handle a 15yo character without the knowledge required? This game is over 20yo; we new players have no idea what the hell is going on under the hood of this game and the many surprises it holds.
