What is the highest amount you have spent on plex, subscription etc?

Every day in every way I improve my skills and get better.

I have 4 x subs. Never bought a plex in my entire Eve existence (which is a looooooooooooooooooooong one).

8 accounts, $0.

Maximum I have paid was $15 per month back in '05-'06.

For every player like me, there is at least PLEX addict...

I don't like plexing accounts, so I used to pay a yearly sub for this character (and another 5 accounts), but now I don't need any more.

Subs only, depending on my mood 3mths to 6 but mostly because each time I want to transfer characters I find something else to train...feel no need to buy plex for whatever in game nor spend my gaming time brainlessly rushing stuff to plex the accounts.

At the moment, I'm paying the equivalent of 9.16 euros per month (54.95 € for 6 months) thx to a return offer, and haven't paid a full subscription for more than a year.

At the top I bought 2 plexes on top of paying 2 accounts in a certain occasion. Also used to plex 1 account and pay 6 months for another.

All accounted, I've spent close to 1,000 euros in EVE since 2008, and feel mostly embarrassed about it; love-hating this game might be the closest to an addiction I've done in my life...Oops

In my first month I bought the game itself and two plexes to sell to get myself started, since then I haven't paid a thing.

I got 5 accounts running and all are plexed till january nexxt year recently . Unlike the guy above i didn't use my time brainlessly rushing stuff but actually used my brain and did trade.Now the passive income pays for the 5 accounts and ''pvp losses'' easily.

Used to pay cash for my accounts but then only had 2 at max going at once .Never spend my rl cash for more then a sub , not in this game and not in others and i porbably never will.

Highest? Must have been that 19,95 euros (or what ever it was back then) when I turned my trial account to a regular one.

I think I've spent about £90 on subscription since I stated playing a year ago but I've never bought a plex for cash and I don't think I ever would. I would spend cash on appealing, quality merchandise though.

Oh god.

I pay my sub, because they deserve the money.

I think i bought three PLEX in all these years to sell for ISK,
because it is the quickest way to make money. ^_^

I've had to go through CCP to buy over 300 plex one month after selling a house. That cost me quite abit.

You should have posted earlier so I could have quote you and yeah, that's pretty much why I don't have the real feeling of wasting my money, they fully deserve it even if some of them have a certain hate for forum alt posting (which are actually forum mains) and don't take time to answer valid questions on balance and other game important threads. Even CCP has their idiots.
