for once..... You think this information on the forums is somehow more comprehensive than the server and subscription data CCP has direct access to? They won't even give this thread a second glance. They don't need to.
Perhaps....

I got some "real info" for ya:
800 / 30 = 26.66666
If you can't generate 27M isk per day on each of your accounts, you are seriously "doing it wrong."
Either the rules apply to everyone, or they don't justly apply to anyone.

That's some really bad mathematics. It's actually 800/1 if you plan to plex all 30 accounts. You don't scare me. I've been to Jita.
People complain about how 'empty' space is. Personally, I would be complaining if it were more 'full'.

Had 2 accounts for a short time, back to 1 a while ago. Started playing Defiance lately, so will likely unsub for a while and come back at some point. I'm liking guns more than spaceships at the moment, plus Defiance is free (granted $12/mo isn't much, but still). |

I have some "real info" for you:
Me sitting at work, eating my cup of oodles and noodles and lunch meat sandwich while reading the Eve forums would pay for one month of game time without having to "grind" in game.
If you can't generate that kind of money in real life, then get a better job...?

You're a little out in the field, here. The OP was lamenting the ISK cost of PLEX, not debating the merits of plexing vs paying cash. I'm simply pointing out that PLEX is, in fact, pretty damn cheap, IMO.
And just to feed the troll: if you have to "grind" to make 27m isk, you're doing it wrong, too

I should probably mention though that I'm not going to be dropping below my current level of accounts anytime soon. If anything I'll only be adding more. I just don't have the money right now. No, this isn't it at all. Make it more... psssshhhh. |

I find the "waaaaa Im quiting!" posts to be more indicative of emotioh\nal attachment than the reasoned responses that put it in perspective. Either the rules apply to everyone, or they don't justly apply to anyone.

I'm +2 accounts, now with 3 total, all payed subs. I might get the two new ones to make enough to plex all three. But this has nothing to do with game mechanics or changes. It is mostly because I have more time to play when I'm single. When I find a new woman to hang out with, I'm quite certain I'll drop back down to 1 account. Turrents |

Good point.... single vs relationship demographics have a monster impact on number of accounts (playing time) you have as well. Didnt even think of that one. Thanks |

No correlation.....just wanted to see if anybody else was dropping accounts right now and why they were doing it. If CCP sees this thread as useful then so be it. If not... Oh well. It was for me in the first place. People on here have tried to derail it or spin it into something that its not....
I'm dropping accounts (first timesince 2010) so I wondered if there was anybody else doing the same. All the complainers and whiner wannabes I just entertain myself poking fun at. If I hurt some feelings .... damn. Might be time to look in the mirror and self-evaluate. Hurt feelings from an inet messageboard is a joke to me but some take it seriously for some reason.
ok back on topic.... 2 days left on this account..... might as well reset some extractors and drop a plex into it in case I decide to activate again. I think they are still doing the 2 hours to PLEX or sub an account thing. Might as well have a PLEX sitting here. |

Price of PLEX isn't a problem - problem is lack of new content and gameplay styles combined with somewhat strong competition from 2 other Internet spaceship games.
p.s. 3 days left for this account. I feel like I'll let it expire and there is high chance I won't reactivate it until territory / WiS expansion (so never). |

My # of accounts active are linked to how active I want to be (generally 3-7), which varies depending on how emo/tinfoil/bored I am in regards to EVE. It is not affected by the cost of plex at all. If you can make 650 mil you can make 700 or 800, and since making isk is really easy it's just not a factor.
A big part of this is that I do not see a division between "work" and "fun". I don't do stuff just because it makes me money, I do stuff I enjoy and become good enough to make money with it. So I'm not actually "working", I'm playing and being entertained... while making money.
Yes, yes-áI am. Thanks for noticing.

Exactly. Earning for a plex is not an issue, or paying using $. 2 accounts are optimal - very boring times ahead. Support Needed : Jump Fuel Consumption |

Been on one account since soundwave started the campaign against high sec with the 80% decryptor nerf. But Hhave been training a 2nd char on that account now long enough to amass 36 million SP.
Due to plex prices and my displeasure with CCP's accelerated attacks on high sec, that 2nd char training lapses in 14 days. |

It comes in waves. I run pretty steady the past few years with 8 accounts subbed at any one time. I don't have a reason to let any lapse right now.

From 5 to 1 account (1 support, 3 Industrial dropped). All where subbed never plexed. Reasons? Mostly for dumbing down the game and a few less important reasons. |

Down from 3 to 1
Previous changes to decryptors made invention less alt-dependant. Due to industry changes i decided to get out of the market. One account still tryign to sell stuff i have too much of and idle, may as well burn plex, isk is no good for anything else right now. |
