So many "I unsubbed 99 times" threads. Most of us are still here. Of those that are, how many accounts did you bring to Eve?

I brought in 3 people with 3 accounts each. Taught one person how to PI and got them to add a third account. Taught one person how to run the game in linux. 1 main and 2 alts here. That's 14 accounts.

Did any of you haters unsub 14 times? You wouldn't want to get beat by a "monocle troll" would you?

And yes, I am serious. Lots of people have lots of alts, and lots of people only play Eve with people they know from real life. Please don't include buddy accounts that were thrown away.

And also currently subscribing accounts. I had a few more people come to Eve but all of them could not handle the learning curve.

i have two accounts, had three for a while (wife) but she didn't like the game [not surprising - it doesn't appeal much to the ladies]

Tedium and difficulty are not the same thing, if you don't realize this then STFU about game design.

I have 4 accounts, and have introduced two r/l friends with 2 accounts each plus one friend from another game with 1 account, so only 9 for me.

And a sudden plunge in the sullen swell. Ten fathoms deep on the road to hell.

I have two accounts myself, currently my alt is inactive because I have no use for it right now. From what I can recall I've introduced about five people to the game and two of them ended up subbing. I believe only one of those two are still playing.

Elements of the past and the future combining to make something not quite as good as either.

Only had 2, letting thier game time run out then not contunueing after. Eve has gone past the point of no return for me, plus certain games are being released which look far more promising over this winter <3

I got about 12 people in since I started 3 years ago. Unfortunately only 1 still remains. Most got bored with the lack of new content in recent updates since Apocrypha. I guess they got spoiled by an awesome update that added a ton of great content. Since then, it's the same game made worse by crap expansions that add nothing. The last few quit after the 0.0 anom nerf. At that point, they no longer had a way to make isk to support their cap ships for pvp and just gave up.

I brought one friend, stayed for about one year, then he lost 2x gilas and 1x drake in 1 hour in lowsec and decided to take a break, now he needs new hardware setup to play again.

I've got two accounts, most of the guys I know in RL got 2 accounts too. No-one of them is quitting eve because of Incarna, NeX and the other issues.

Down to three from five. But that will change at the end of the month.
