does that seem right. as the game forces you to have more than one account if you have alts.

everyone in my corp either has 2-3 accounts on eve,

i have 3 i got my second during the first month of my gameplay and then my third about 2 months ago :)

No the majority of people have 1 account, 30$ a month for one mmo is unresonable for most people.

I think the fact that many Eve players have more than 1 account is just more a case of the people that play Eve really love it that much. My account which is currently inactive (no internet where I live currently ) is my only account. I have played on and off since beta and I have never felt the need to have a second account.

According to the QEN, the op is wrong. Most people only own one account.

I remember when the first time there were 10,000 players on at the same time... and when you had to go through the concord system (forgot the name) to get to other race's zones before they remapped the jump gates... fun times...

Oh, I had two accounts at one point, miner and a hauler...

On average is is probably around 1.5-2 accounts for person. I says that because for every person with a single account there are people with 5 or 10 even. Eve-Online has an average player game of +25 I believe so around this area of peoples lives they have a lot of expendable income. Not all of the player base is mature and as the game can take a long time and most of the time is either so relaxing you can fall asleep or so stressful you have a heart attack it is not a game for everyone. What I find gets me through the game is the people there are to talk to and they made it 10x more enjoyable to play. I have been know at one point to run three accounts but currently and only running one as the alts where no longer needed.

Over all there are a high number of people running multiple accounts. At the moment it can cause a few problems as everyone can thus be independent meaning that fewer people are required to forfill a task thus the socialness of the game can become redundant. Over all I like that game but after a few months of heavy solid player you may feel it is very much the same thing. The best idea is to play casualy, here and there. Perhaps do more than one roll so there are other things to do? Meh, I dunno.

But over all there does seem to even out at more than 1 account per person for sure. Whether it is quiet two, I don't know.
