It's about taking away something I paid for in some way. Yes I know I don't own jack in CCP's universe but that doesn't change the fact that I paid for it. The discussion that we have here about BPOs ruining the economy and CCP not really wanting the BPOs here is the same discussion that EVE has with Tech2 BPOs - and tbh the T2 BPOs are really not a problem beyond jealousy. Sure the T2 BPO makes items cheaper than via invention, but the overall return profit wise is larger with invention than the BPO since you can only do one item at a time with the BPO while invention can do up to 11 at the same time thus giving you a better return over time. Sure you can't exactly compare the two since one generates free fits vs someone that has to buy hers or his. But really, how many mercs run full BPO fits after 3 months? I run BPO fits when I'm lazy playing because I don't want to lose ISK, but any time I feel like "playing" there's no BPO in my fit and I seriously doubt there is for others either - especially not KDR minded people since BPO vs KDR don't really go hand in hand. Does BPOs ruin the economy? No, if anything like others said, it's in fact a big ISK sink, and will only become more of one as people will start pay more and more for the BPOs, be it for collectors or for people that just wants to be able to lazy run a free fit every now and then. So what can CCP do? - Create a player run economy, allow the BPOs to stay, introduce BPCs that players can buy - and let us manufacture the dropsuits and similar found on the market using said BPOs and BPCs - BUT WAIT! THEN THE BPO OWNERS WILL HAVE FREE PRODUCTION OVER THE BPC OWNERS!!! OMG! - Look at my comment about Tech2 BPOs in EVE and you'll see how they don't really benefit that much from this. From the collector perspective they better not remove them. Plus I paid for the BPO because I wanted it. Make it useless should you need, but they better not remove it. /c DUSTSearch DUSTBoard DUST Server Status
