I dont know if anyone else has suggested this in the past, but i think it would be a good idea to introduce a small charge say 10 euros in order for people to change around their attributes. I started my character wrong because I was lazy but im willing to pay for my mistake, im sure others are aswell. You could even make it a one time thing, it would increase your profits and make alot of players happy i think (including myself).
/me does not want to spend lots on implants to have standard attributes in certain areas.

No. By doing this you would be messing around with the ingame market, because instead of people buying implants people would just buy attribute points off the eve store etc. |

First, there are no standard atributes  All chars have the same amount of attribute points. Apart from that, as Normandus pointed out, a downside of attribute point redistribution would be that it makes dumb 'powerleveling' possible. For example start out with high Int/Mem, do all the support skills, then switch to high Perc/Will for combat skills... and so on. I guess it's about perception, right ? People who create Intaki fighter chars should be beaten black and blue with a printout of the EVE manual  |

Not necessarily, they could offer it as a one time thing. One change per character, it would allow people to make up for mistakes or would allow people to make a possible career change in the game. |

Though an intresting idea, I think it would set a bad precednet. Next thing it'll be real money for ships, or real money for SP. Sliperly slope arguemnt I agree, but it's just too easy to let somehing like that get out of hand.

Again I dont believe this to be true, at the end of the day it would be under CCP's control, and would not be that desimilar from paying money to change your characters picture. |

Thing is, pictures don't give you an advantage in the game. Paying for attribute changes is effectively paying for SP; you are, after all, changing your attributes so that you can train certain skills faster (whenever you're in the mood to pay for it, I might add). |

Though im happy about peoples contributions they need to listen a bit more ^^ look above i said you could make it a one time thing for people who messed up at the start or people who want a career change, just one time. |

Even if they make it a one time change, then people will start with a high int/mem and train learning skills and suport skills. Then when they finish with those, or get as high as they want at that time, then they pay to switch their stats to high per/will and train their combat skills with their new stats. This would make it so the char can train up his skills a lot faster then the adverage. I know you want this for people who messed up or want to make a career change, but how are CCP to determine if the char messed up... or want to change their career. The skill will be used my 90% of the people to speed up training of their chars. |

Yeah thats what im going to do, pay even more cash to play this game just to improve my training by a few days for each and every skill i train up. You make it out like everyone would do this and all the +5 implants would end up dirt cheap not gonna happen. If that were so everyone would be buying GTC's and selling them for isk to get them ahead of the game and not bother mining for it. |

those marco miners aint under CCP control.... but this is indeed an interesting idea, i started the char as "fighter" becoz i dont know when i choose "Custom" i can play around with it a bit more (6 more steps) be4 finalized it up.....i would pay to do that 6 steps again...if it's possible and this is not buying attribute off CCP store, btw, and implants market wont get affect as much either way (imo) |
