Credit drain idea

As with most MMORPGs out there, inflation is rampant. There is just not enough "stuff" that is needed once you hit the level cap and outfit your ship with all purples. Throwing drops into the replicator enough times and the EC piles up quickly. Why not allow us to buy an additional "box" of inventory (not tab, single box) for an outlandish price. Say, one box for 1 mil - similar to how fleet tabs are purchased.

With all the unique items being thrown out there, not to mention the species specific tribbles, this could come in quite handy.

Anyone else have an idea to share?

    i like the idea for sure but i am not sure if the tabs would be enough. i was hoping that daboo would affect it some and i am still holding out on that but there needs to be something else as well maybe when that new crafting system is realesed people will dump cash into that but it still will not fix anything unless there is some expensive thing to buy. maybe convert EC to cryptic points so that it is like 1 C-point for 50000EC. Or it may be time for the Fed carrier and make that outlandishly expensive as well as gear for it. or maybe some way to purchase romulan prototype weapons. i like that idea best actually.

    I'd prefer to see more end-game stuff that required a use for credits and resource management.

    A tab really just means a bigger inventory for more loot with bigger numbers - instead of gameplay content that utilizes the funds allocated to our ships.

    the more i think about it i really like the romulan prototype weapons. they could do stranger abilities somewhat like the chain damage on the new one from the weeklies or some other ability and could be bought through the ferengi black market or something. maybe even weapons or consoles for the ship. they could also have draw backs and be outlandishly priced. maybe even have one be a personal cloaking device or a weak one for the ship that only cloaks it for so long or something based on the amount of used auxiliary power.
