1. Packs need better BPO's. Yeah, I know, it's frowned upon by most. But you know what? If people spend their real world money, they deserve an advantage. Any BPO should trump and ISK weapon. I don't care about the whole "risk is the point game". Maybe I like the game, the premise, and don't feel like risking. And so what if I have the money to spend on a nicer gun or suit BPO and someone else doesn't, that's their problem. Sorry, but that's how the world works, some have, and some don't. BPO's aren't wrecking the game, because at least those of us that buy them are actually contributing to the developers. The BPO's shouldn't just be more, but better. FAR better and FAR more. There's no reason why a Kaalotika (or whatever it's called) should be better than a covenant rifle for example.

I don't want to P2W

I meant comparable.

Yet some people like me who buy gear don't think it's fair that people who sit on here for hours and have the time to do so have the clear advantage over those of us with lives, families, and careers.

Who's digging the hole here? The entire complaint on BPO's is it's not fair to ISK people, yet spending thousands of hours on here isn't fair to the ones who can't. You know what I think? I think the hardcore users are simply afraid that someone can buy a few bundles, and be equal to them. So now who's spoiled and entitled?

If you had bothered to read any of the other posts, you would have seen me already present this argument. I'm GLAD that BPO people threaten the system. It's keeping new players from getting slaughtered. I'm all for it, and I want to see them even more powerful. And I'm willing to bet that as this game goes on, if the Elite bundle is any inclination, it will go that way when CCP realizes how much money it can generate off them. I think most of the other users do, and that's why they are so against BPO's in general. I don't mind P2W systems, because I don't see it that way. I see it as pay to completely customize and have some nice gear that I don't lose. As I said in my OP, that's the way the world works, as cold as it may be. If someone inherits a bunch of money and doesn't have to work, or someone has a good paying job, you should be happy for them. You don't hate someone driving past you in a Ferrari on the same road you're driving your Ford Focus on, and the same principle applies here with what I'm saying. That's life. Maybe you had to work to have that Focus, and the other guy was just given that Ferrari. No one's knocking you for having a Ford, just don't beat up on the guys that have the resources to have better or more of something. It's capitalism, and it's been around for a while. I suggest you read up on it.
