<div>Matthew,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Unlike you, I didn't say anyone's comments weren't worth listening to. You're still young yet and I suspect once you start your own business vs what you've been doing the last 4 years (customer service 3yrs & IP management 1yr) you will have a different
perspective.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>With that said there are 3 factors you can base pricing on:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1. Totally arbitrary number (current model)</div>
<div>2. Equally based on blocks assigned</div>
<div>3. Based on ARIN time consumed.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The third one is the one you're suggesting. This model is the second least perfect because it is arbitrary as well. All you can do is average everyone out which means I may be paying for some dude generating tons of tickets while I only created a few tickets
in the last few years. This is an unequal yoke.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The only way to guarantee everyone is equally yoked is to base it strictly on blocks assigned and get rid of all the categories altogether.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I think all of us agree one of the reasons we are out of IPs is because of waste. Making it strictly an allocation based model with no tiers should help combat waste. If I'm assigning /22's to a bunch of T1's and have to request a bunch of POs to get more
IPs on a linear cost model I will have to justify that to accounting. At some point your CFO will say what the heck are you doing, this doesn't scale. I can't continue to spend x amount to acquire each customer. </div>

Still, it's a fact that the big players are hoarding immense, unused <br>
