Hello there. There is indeed a way to find this information. The easiest way I have found is to go here EVE BOARD and add your character/s using your API key which can be found here API KEY

You then copy paste your ID Number and API Key into the appropriate places on EVE BOARD and voila, you can choose to display all the information relevant to your character, including time spent in the game. The system is perfectly secure and is run by Chribba, who is a nice guy. Hope that helps.

I don't think I even want to see. I can remember jolt stats used to show game time for ut2004, I had 2,000 hours logged in assault mode alone on one of my stats accounts.

The scary thing? I probably play Eve more than I played UT.

(And yes, IIRC 2k hours is a few months.)

EveHQ gives you that information on its pilot information section. Would depend on the API references oc

I am aware of my own ignorance and have checked my emotional quotient - thanks for asking

Come on, you just want to know this info to prove to your mum/dad/girlfriend/boyfriend that you haven't been spending "that much" time on EVE, don't you?

im disappointed that evemon doesnt display this information.

Fix it.

You can see it in EveMon.

Just go to the API Tester, select the Account Status API Method, then select the character. It'll tell you your login minutes right there.

If you've transferred a character, I'm pretty sure it is innaccurate from EveMon... I have 11 days on a 9 year old toon then. LOL

Its for the account, not the specific character. If you've transferred a char I'd imagine it'll bring up the stats for the new account.

Even worse if you have been botting.

it shows in EVEHQ

Example: Mine shows 1236 logins, 137d 3h 35m -- 2h 42m per login across my time playing, but the rest takes math and knowing what's up. 996 days since I started so 3h 18m a day -- for 23h 6 min a week of EVE play time.

To put this in perspective: in 2006, the players were ~27 years old, mostly guys (95%) and played 17 hours a week. I'm 6 hours over that. :-p

After playing for 6 years and counting, I don't even want to think about how much of my life I've fed to this game.
God help me if my wife actually had that number. She's on me enough about how I play too much, but armed with real stats? I'd never hear the end of it.

Ah, the hours of precious life you've wasted on Eve. One of those days, you'll want those back...

Yup, instead of wasting it on something else, more productive, like watching television, or something.
