PLEXing 3 accounts. Somewhere around 700-800 mil I'd consider using RM for one.

Only plex when I want to check something, then use the remainder of the month to troll the forums. Other then that my accounts stay inactive. Though I have like 20b so not really worried about the price.

I've always wondered who is buying all this PLEX with money? I know of a handful of people who may of bought one or two plex in their EVE career. I know many more who sub 1-2 alt accounts month in and month out with PLEX. It would seem to me that the demand should far outweigh the supply.

Please post the redacted titles, so we can giggle mercilessly at your expense Twisted

When the time involved spent grinding for plex exceeds the time taken before I stop enjoying myself.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

100M or so. At 750 or so with a reasonable stable inflation (or deflation) rate I'd consider selling converting a couple hundred into PLEX.

Ed: I say that I' cconsider it... but I use the term a little loosely. I probably wouldn't. I'm pretty set for ISK and I'm pulling in a lot more than I spend.

I'm an idiot, don't mind me.

20B really won't go far once prices reach a few billion per PLEX.

It does when I only plex 1 month every 6months/year. Plus if my reserve gets low enough I can actually login and flip what I have left. Its not like making money in Eve is hard.

Apparently there are large number of people who hate "grinding for ISK".
Or are trying to buy win.

It hasn't really go up that much. I don't see why so many threads about it. It's still way below 550m. You can make that in a weekend.

If you look at the market graph over a year it's quite likely that something horrible is about to happen.

As a more serious answer, on a rational level, it would be maybe 60–80M ISK or so, because any more than that and it takes more grind-time to pay for a month than if I paid for it with cash…

…but that still assumes that I value play time and work time equally, which I don't, so in reality, it would at the very best be half of that.

I *am* looking at the graph. April's spike was bigger... I'm not near jita tho... that graph might show different data.
