PLEX for Bad? You can probably console yourself that a portion of what you pay to play goes to the Icelandic government and hence into the international banking system. They also do appalling things to a variety of sea creatures and I'm sure your money helps.

There are two types of EVE player:

those who believe there are two types of EVE player and those who do not.

Guys calm down and please stop personal atacks etc, therad is up not locked by isd-ccp, nothing bad or wrong with this kind of donantion.

Sending even small goods and replace them for plex for aid is OK.

If you dont like dont support, if you think somthing wrong with this thread report it and let decide CCP instead of forum flame.

As OP mention here a lot people who want help but got problem in RL with real money or less isk to spent on full plex, so here we go.

EvE isn't game, its style of living.

I also think the OP shows dedication and I am sure he wants to do good and help.

A player that does not spend real life money for Plex that he then donates to "Plex for Good" creates no real benefit for the victims.

Donating ISK that you got through ratting, loot, PI etc. does not count - at all.

You may have a warm cosy feeling once you assuage your need for a good conscience, pretending you did something altruistic, but in reality it does not help at all.


Yes it does, it buys a plex that otherwise would have been consumed for game time etc. CCP is let off the obligation of the IOU they wrote when selling the GTC the plex was created from.

Don't be so narrow minded, some people like my self can barely afford food for themselves, but would still like to help. I don't pay for eve with cash because I simply can't, but if i'm able to use my experience in this game to generate a fictional in game currency to buy units of real money tied up within an in game item then I'm going to do just that.

I will donate 10% of what I make each month trading in jita to this charity, today that will be about 230 mil because that is about 10% of what I earned in the last 5 days, so that will have to do Lol, next month it will be a lot more

/edit

Actually I will wait till after this weekend because I'll probably double my wallet since the weekend is very busy in jita, so then I'll probably donate enough for 1 plex at what ever the going market price is.

I fly with a TunDraGon, and he would not be impressed with your cynicism at all.

exactly, a much older player i would have thought that they would have a much broader view of how things go...

Poor people using earned isk ingame to donate to charity are doing nothing more than extracting the $10 or is it $15 from those who are rich or better off , it is pure genius!
