Hello.
As many of you already know, discovering practical interstellar travel is one of the toughest challenges humans have yet to face.

Furthermore, the longer we go without discovering it, the greater the risk of a disaster happening that causes us to go exstinct or knocks us into a dark age (which in the long run might result in our annihilation).

CCP has done PLEX for good campaigns in past— and some would argue that this cause is more important than all the previous ones combined.

So please CCP, one day in future, do a PLEX for good fundraiser where you donate the proceeds to research on interstellar travel Smile.

I can think of at least....23 other things that are much more deserving of a PLEX drive than researching interstellar travel.


Im sure that number is quite a bit higher actually.

'PLEX for interstellar travel research' ranks slightly below 'PLEX for navel lint removal training' but somehow above 'PLEX to fix Tori Spelling's face'.

What I want to know is when the hell did Unsuccessful get an assistant and how the hell he suckered him into it...

Not really eve related, so, thread moved to OOPE.

Fantastic dental benefits.

He also told me that I reminded him of a younger, better looking Chris O'Donnell.

No, PLEX prices are rising fast enough without diverting supply to RL causes.

I dunno about interstellar travel, but donating to space related research is actually a rather novel idea. I kind of like it.

Is this a troll or are you serious?

Can't you imagine long term repercussions if we can't discover interstellar travel in a timely enough manner?

As soon as we've plexed enough to cure cancer, feed the homeless, fixed third world countries and put an end to global conflict I'll happily support your cause OP. Bear

Oh and free love. Let's not forget Plex for love.
