5 mill is just to low, I mean, you can make that much money in 3 or 4 minutes on a good trade route.

That would mean a trade route that does some 70 mil/hour....:shok:

Just swapped Airom's Wraith with William's runabout. Worked like a charm. Thanks.

Going to need to do a couple runs to make the 20 Million back, but shouldn't take much time at all.

All in all, I think the price is just about right. Low enough to be useful when needed, high enough to discourage potential abuse. (Yes, I can think of a few ways it could be abused too. No, I'm not going to list them either.)

It's official, I have too few ships now...

Other than the fact I'll probably need to spend about 100m or so now, this is amazingly awesome!

Yeah, probably shouldnt have suggested that. I dont know how else to react when someone posts something over and over and doesnt add any thought to it, he just whines, which he literally said he was doing. If you want to talk about it or try to get it changed then try and provide some insight, make an argument, then there will be something to talk about. Still though, I am sorry I suggested that Darth.

As for lowering the price, 10 mill is a lot. Considering the potential abuse though I think it's not too bad. It also encourages people to organize there characters properly in the first place. If it was lowered, I wouldnt want to see it go anywhere below 8 mill. 5 mill is just to low, I mean, you can make that much money in 3 or 4 minutes on a good trade route.

i am sorry for whining about how it should cost less without giving reasons.

reasons i think it should cost less:

• it can be abused, just as the renameme command can be, but the renameme command costs less.
  
• most players would rather spend their money on gear and ammo, not moving their ships around.
  
• if it is going to get abused, then it will be. changing the cost from 10 million to 5 million will not make people abuse it that would not be abuseing it anyway.
  

and its cool tazuras, i really was being pretty fail.(gotta remember to think before i click add reply.)

Oops. Yeah. I definitely failed at math there. Five mill takes 10 minutes to make while 10 takes about 20 minutes to make.

reasons i think it should cost less:

• it can be abused, just as the renameme command can be, but the renameme command costs less.
  
• most players would rather spend their money on gear and ammo, not moving their ships around.
  
• if it is going to get abused, then it will be. changing the cost from 10 million to 5 million will not make people abuse it that would not be abuseing it anyway.

First of all, thanks for being understanding and seeing my point Darth:). But now I am afraid I must critique your points:

• it can be abused, just as the renameme command can be, but the renameme command costs less.
  Yes, but witht he renames command you can only do one character at a time, with this you can do all 5 at once.
  
  
• most players would rather spend their money on gear and ammo, not moving their ships around.
  Um, you can still do this. I dont see a reason anyone needs to have all there characters organized. It's a convenience, a luxury. The only think it is really necessary for is if one wants to sell characters from unorganized accounts, and since one would be making money doing that anyway, I dont think that is a huge deal. Also If one really wanted them organized then they should have created them that way in the first place.
  
  
• if it is going to get abused, then it will be. changing the cost from 10 million to 5 million will not make people abuse it that would not be abuseing it anyway.
  I think if someone has to spend twenty minutes trading in order to abuse it it will affect them much more than if they have to spend 10.
  

So, that's how I feel about it. Feel free to critiques my points of course (like I have to say this;)).

Well I don't see any problem with introducing a grace period of 2 days or something like that during which it costs 1mil/piece so that people can sort their accounts. After that it could go back up.

The idea of having to pay 200 mil for nothing now really doesn't amuse me. Guess I'll keep my accounts messed.

Yes, I very much agree with this. Do this please. To be fair it should be on the weekend or maybe a whole week just so everyone has a chance.

  said person can still abuse it, giving little reason for it to be so expensive to all of us.

  some of us <strike>do not</strike> did not have the forsight to create all of our characters on different accounts, due to the anoyyence of making new accounts, and we would like to move are trade onto a different account from our military characters.

  yes, but they wlll still abuse it. to quote my self:

  if it is going to get abused, then it will be. changing the cost from 10 million to 5 million will not make people abuse it that would not be abuseing it anyway.

So, that's how I feel about it. Feel free to critiques my points of course (like I have to copy tazuras on this?? ).

I believe paying 10 millions for this operation is fair enough. Kudos to you Cannon.
