Fiat currency, markets, economies are all based on faith.
We were told player trading would happen and that all things would be tradeable. It may or may not have been explicitly said exactly like that, but it was implied due to the universe dust shares with eve. This means that players have already been making speculative moves.
People bought into cheap BPO's because they believed the market would exist and other people would want to buy them. If you had been paying attention, you also would have noticed other module price changes. Charge sniper rifles, Proto vehicle speed mods and more. I personally bought 2000 charged sniper rifles after the massive isk refund, back when the price was under 1000 each. Now, they sell for something much more than that. 15k?
The point is - the market existed the day the game released and to change the rules, products or deny it now is a breach of that faith players put into the game. Sure, they can probably legally do so but morally? It's a ****** bait-n-switch, nothing more. Charge Sniper Rifles used to be 2k each, they're now 47k each.

If you do own BPOs and are telling people to HTFU, well uh that's just like, your opinion, man. I never said they were any less valid, I just said they were complaining too much, how would you feel if I posted my opinion on here over and over and over again about something that didn't go my way? (would that not be excessive and annoying?) I do own BPO's, but I couldn't care less what happens to them, and I'm not telling anyone to HTFU I just want to scroll through the forums and not see the same topics and posts over and over again. You've really only got one guy to blame for that and I'm fairly certain that he is only doing it for one of two reasons: 1) to be a troll 2) he really is that much of a whiny entitled *****
