Greetings ladies and gentlemen of the verse, My name is Tom Gerard high-sec slacker extraordinaire. I would like to inform you that there is a secret order of those willing to bleed for this game, and I am but one of their number.

The question is, how much isk does it take to purchase blood, or is RBT disallowed?

No blood for EVE! X

Ok lets look at the math, every 5 days you can give blood ... every 15 days you can give plasma

Send a third stage Guild Navigator to Jita to demand details from the Emperor. The blood must flow...



You know, you should really watch out for the Blood Raiders...

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

In the UK they don't buy our blood. We give it freely for the greater good.

If you can get your internet for the price of the blood, think about how much you could get for one of your kidneys on the black market.

Sell your kidney now and enjoy EvE and internet for life.

Especially as with a black market surgery you probably won't last long afterwards. Lol

Any spelling, grammatical and punctuation errors are because frankly, I don't care!!

Now I must venture out of my igloo and traverse by dog sled, to the small town of Toronto where I can buy some space age materials known as tinfoil...(inside joke, only Canadians laughing at Americans will actually get it.)

How silly.

Canadian Blood Donation programs work off advertisement and government supported programs. That could will while existing in most people doesn't just pop into the average persons head, that costs money to get it there.

A system of monetary compensation is just another type of incentive to donate. The question is do they meet the quota they are looking for within acceptable costs. What is more it rewards people and not people who make commercials. Millions of Americans donate their time for charity yet you pick one area to demonize there country for the crime of a different system. Go tell one of the people volunteering in a homeless shelter down there how much better you are because they use a different system to incentives blood gathering and only sometimes because much of America's blood is donated.

Think a little before waving the flag.

Except that either way it requires advertisement.

There is an incentive in both case (altruism / money) and advertisement in both cases so ...

flag waving may continue.
