I'm just going to try and consolidate the ideas and run with them. What if the trial period was fairly unlimited (like in eve pre-alpha clones) but after that your account would be suspended unless you used a DAC. Furthermore trial players would be "marked" somehow so that if they applied to a faction the faction could see that it was a trial account. It would be very important to tell the trial player that this was happening and it also might encourage them to subscribe. For players who's subscriptions lapsed however you would get say 1-2 hrs per week for a month. Hopefully allowing you to get to a market and purchase a DAC.

I mean people fall for alt F4 Sooooooo.....

I think that regardless of what unit you chose you need to keep your entire org on that same unit, furthermore i think that you need to try and get anyone who you will be trying to communicate with in battle (like your allied orgs) on the same system. I think that it's inevitable that DU will eventually be using the metric system simply because of the number of people using the metric system IRL compared to the people using the Imperial system IRL.

I second that. Come join us ;D
