the rolling SP count has been suggested I don't think CCP would like it since it makes the boosters "better" and ud get a lot of SP from just one but they should have the rolling SP or no cap imo |

Making it a global cap is a lot more simple and removes the individual element that adds the need for much more coding. I also don't see how this system makes boosters 'better' - currently boosters add 50% which can not be gotten any other way than using boosters; so if anything, boosters would be less valuable in the global cap system.
whats global count mean? im kinda confused? is it the same as a rolling like since the beginning weve had a set number SP each week add it all up and it makes it rolling? but the boosters would need to be bought less if u take breaks and that makes me think they will say no |

You wouldn't need to buy boosters to catch up but you'd have to have the time to play 50% more than people who do use boosters to keep up, so they'd still be valuable - just not offer the SP that can't otherwise be gotten in the current system.
but on peoples alts if we had a since the beginning SP it might sell more boosters I can see a lot of people jumping on that to make a second, third, another account characters and it might not remove the sale of current boosters since people want to stay ahead of the pack |

but I think they would buy if we can convince CCP or CPM that it would still sell boosters we should be able to have it in game
people have to specialize and I have a AR assault, Heavy and Logi
my heavy and logi r really really hurting but if I could have a rolling cap and im sure others would buy the boosters so they can play as them a week and get a lot further (I cap out my main in 2.5 days) |

yeah but CCP or CPM members need to agree or it wont happen |
