seems some people don't understand what profit means... and btw you get a lot of profit from this
simple calculation
assuming 100k aurum was worth as much as its today. (about 62 bucks in my currency) you'll get an extra 10k i think. so no you got 110k aurum.
so you buy bpo's for 50 aurum each and you invest 110k aurum. so now you have 2200 bpo's.
lets say those bpo's cost now 5k aurum. so now you have 2200 x 5k aurum (in assets) = 11'000'000 aurum (in assets)
liquified back into aurum on may 6th you'll make a profit of 6138 in my currency. but you can't refund it into cash.
so now you can buy boosters. 2 boosters at current 28k aurum makes 56k aurum per month.
you will run 16 YEARS with free active/passive boosters |

Cool. Wonder what will save CCP more.. Bad PR for Merck packs or Millions of AUR's back due stocking BPO's :/ A guy deposits a thousand dollars in a bank and then goes to a cryo/sleep facility to sleep for a hundred years. A hundred years later the guy exits the cryo/sleep facility and goes to the nearest phonebooth and calls the bank to see what kind of money is in the acount: One hundred million dollars is in your account says the voice on the phone....... And the guy yells Im rich!, IM RICH!!!! Then after the guy runs off the voice on the phone says: please deposit a ONE million dollar COIN for three more minutes.........
so you automaticly assumed that there will be Inflation.... but what will happen to the currency from ppl who bought 100k aurum who then find out that, if they had bought the aurum a day later they would have gotten 100mio aurum? Ragequit forever maybe?
smart way to drive away ppl from what ever you're selling..

As a result of the skill changes, items will also be adjusted. As such, the items in your Assets will be removed, and their ISK/AUR value at the time of the respec will be put back into your in-game wallet. This allows you to immediately retrain skills and repurchase items to remake your fittings and go to battle. Also, important to note, any PSN items (such as the Mercenary Pack) and any in-game event items (such as the Black Eagles, Skinweave and Quafe Dropsuits) will NOT be removed from your Assets.

Wonder how much money CCP stands to lose on this stunt.
say we had 300k players in closed beta and 2% did this stunt
300k*0.02*9.5k= 57 Millions |

Wonder how much money CCP stands to lose on this stunt. say we had 300k players in closed beta and 2% did this stunt 300k*0.02*9.5k= 57 Millions it's all just assumptions Very cool that not a single Dev has been seen in this Thread... That's PSN hack levels of stupid right there... Heck, I'm willing to bet that even if only $1000 did this, they'd still be deep in the red. It's not so much CCP losing money because odds are a lot of people that benefit from this would never purchase the equivalent amount of AUR anyway. Since AUR isn't actually a real thing CCP's only loss is the opportunity of additional sales. It's more about the ridiculous advantage this gives to some players over others. Interesting to see how this plays out but I'm still banking on it not being what people think. Merc pack's not renfunded was still small compared to this AUR wise.
if 1000 ppl did this it would be more or less an equivalent of 320k merc packs. And it would not have been cheaper as you would just add these costs to the others doubling ccp's loss |
