I know what I said before about having in game gil purchases, but that was mainly because I was really annoyed with the gil spammers and now that I think about it, PLEX was one of the main reasons I stopped playing EVE. Well, that and the thousands of dbags playing the game... Anyway, I bought PLEX, and became an instant billionaire. I had fun for about two weeks buying all kinds of stuff and then was bored out of my mind. I had nothings left to work towards in the game after that and didn't see any point in continuing the game. I just got really bored.
