Why are they encouraging people to start additional accounts now that dual-character training is a thing?

You can train 2 characters on the same account, but not have them logged in at the same time. Serves slightly different needs.

Frequent transactions are sometimes much easier with two clients open. And of course, some people scout that way.

Unless this is tempting you to get another account, I don't get it.

So, it'll be a freighter alt really soon, and after that I'm debating whether to go into industry stuff (invention, drugs, building, no mining) or go straight to capitals after a brief detour for covops.

Why is it beneficial for the player?

Scouts, cynos, mission salvage (if still done?  Haven't missioned since the noctis), OGB (getting nerfed soon, thankfully), and of course dual-boxing (or more).

Why is it beneficial for CCP?  Because if you stop paying, you lose access to that character, while a dual-trained char on your main is always there.  Meaning you're more likely to fork out more for the extra account.  Meanwhile, dual training gets people who didn't want a whole new account just for PI/hauling to spend a little extra cash up front to get more bang for their $15/month down the line.

Unless this is tempting you to get another account, I don't get it.

He's not angry that it tempted him, he's angry that it worked   :lol:

Pretty sure that everything Morrigan does is some kind of Dark Ritual.
