If I want to multibox, will I need to create a new account, or can I play two characters from the same account at the same time? |

One acct for each character logged in at the same time.
Mr Epeen There are 86,400 seconds in a day. You just saved one of them by typing 'u' instead of 'you'.-á Congratulations, dumbass! |

In order to have multiple characters logged in at the same time, you need to have multiple accounts.
Meaning, you cannot have two character slots on the same account be logged in at the same time. They can train skills at the same time if both of them are PLEX'd, but they cannot be logged in simultaneously. |

Depends a lot on what you use the characters for. Most people who multibox can either afford to pay for all of them using RL money, or they can afford to pay for PLEX for all of their accounts in game. Either way, they're relatively rich. |

So I am rich because I subscribe to more than 1 MMO at the same time with money?

I don't buy a Starbucks on the way to work like most of my peers do.
There, paid for 9-12 accounts, depending on the amount of actual coffee in the beverage. (I don't *have* anywhere near that number of accounts, but I digress.)
Other times I've PLEXed my accounts because I was IG flush and felt like it.
And I take breaks from EVE when I can't afford the time commitment (which is starting to be all the time).
Everybody's financial situation is different, YMMV. EVE is about USD .30/day/account "It's easy to speak for the silent majority. They rarely object to what you put into their mouths." -Abrazzar "the risk of having your day ruined by other people is the cornerstone with which EVE was built" -CCP Solomon |

I can see being a poor kid.
But for us fat lazy 'Muricans sucking down triple shot caramel macchiatos, a month of starbucks is the same cost as ~18 accounts.
It's about 25 accounts if you live in NYC.
9 accounts if you live in Kansas, Oklahoma or Indiana. (Holy c****t the coffee is cheap there and tips are typically refused.) |

For many that "play" EVE, is it considered more a hobby than a game. Considering the price that comes with many other extra-curricular activities, paying for numerous EVE accounts is relatively cheap. |

If you sub the accounts for more than a month at a time the cost goes down. I run 2 with 4 characters, This one, my main. A hauling alt in a neutral Corp. Empty slot.
Main alt , scout, covops scanning and boosts. Anonymous(sortof) market alt Empty slot awaiting toon for ... Reasons.
That's about Gé¼30 a month which i can get as much entertainment out of as I care to that would otherwise last me about an hour in the pub. =]I[= |

Some of us even have jobs that provide free coffee, for a double bonus!
I find that without a good mob to provide one for them, most people would have no mentality at all. |

Qft
Kinda puts the true cost's of this here hobby into perspective if you ask me.
Still, slow slurpers be slow slurpers, from one who does enjoy his slurp and pales at the thought of an hour in-between each bar run. Make mine a double pls.

Many will say you can't play EVE if you don't multibox it.
I am evidence of this being false. Single account and no fucks given.
On a related note, only ever job I went for that had free coffee, I promised at the interview that I'd give 110%. Unfortunately, I was applying to be a statistician...

I used to have a job managing a band called "Missing Kitten". Unfortunately no one would attend their shows unless there was some kind of reward, and we were all on the street after a few days.
For my next venture, it'll be a band called "Free Beer". When the posters go up saying "Free Beer Thursday at 9pm" everyone will be there, it literally can't fail.

Once you get to 40 or 50 accounts, it's easy. We've been getting beat up by the falling ice prices and it's my own fault for getting used to living on a 150-200Billion /month budget.
Maybe I'll ISBox my fleet of bling grinders and go do some lvl4's.

They say most of your brain shuts down on the EvE forums. All but the impatient side, and the sarcastic side. No wonder I'm still awake. |

Well I go do some stuff for a few hours every day and every other week, they give me some CADs, which is kind of like ISK but in Canada. The cool thing tho is I can buy PLEX with those CADs and then get ISKs by selling thise PLEX. The best part of it is, depending on what job you arrange to have, you can get much more CAD/hours to transfer in ISKs that you could get ISK/hours.
You sometime have to do awful stuff like wear pants but I'm raking the equivalent of over 800 mill ISK/hours and that is nowhere near a top paying job. |
