Plz let the demoplayers in the mv because there are painfully few paying playes in the mv. The demoplayes could also gain rank to pilot a supply ship or a sensor frig or more . This would make the mv 100% more fun!!!
Plz do it for all the paying players and luckyly more will pay if they cna see the mv. A X day tial just is not enough these days.

I fail to see how letting demo players into the MV and gain rank is going to encourage people to pay. It would do just the opposite...

or maybe we can get some folks to start subbing. They get to taste that pie on a sub. They can freeloaders like more than a few others here. But you want MV action and rank? well, thunk down your money like those of us who do sub. The subbing players ALREADY finance enough. I don't think I can find one reason to let unsubbs into the MV.
And I could be wrong, but I seem to remember playing in the MV on my demo account. Just couldn't play there after trial ran out, and I immediatley subbed so I could get back in the MV. The MV is an incentive to sub, not a perk for those that freeload.

I agree with Azreal MV is a perk.....not another reason to freeload....otherwise we'll all unsub and play for free....and then whats gonna happen?

Pay to play means something you know.

I'm probably going to be demo for as far into the future as that can be thought out and even I think demos shouldn't be allowed into MV. Like everyone said: MV and rank is supposed to be incentive to pay.

I think this topic was discussed already. I think its a greate idea because demo players use up traffic anyways. However allowing demo players in MV would probably increase ammount of demo players and reduce ammount of subscribed players, which is not economically viable. enough said. It would be greate but I doubt its gonna happen.

1. I just say let them in the MV and gain some Rank to pilot a supp or even better because I need Targets 
2. You all miss the Fact that the funlevel is depends on playercount.
3. Probably more will pay maybe few will not but one thing is shure there are too few players soon nobody will play

Yeah, this game needs players. That is the only problem. Maybe we need a free trial or something. No players = no fun.

My thoughts are that let them in under the same rules as noob, they wont be able to build, the planets are done, they wont be able to pilot decent ships, no rank or pres, all they can get is badges and they will see what the game is like. I subbed as soon as my free trial ran out i think it would be a great incentive and maybe a few more targets floating around for subbed players. I spend a lot of time in admiral or noob depending on which sever has the most players simply because it seems combat is rare in the MV as one side usally bows out under supior numbers.
So i say let the targets........er demos in the MV under noob server rules.
