EVE players insist spending hours doing mind-numbingly boring labor isn’t work, but “fun”, despite having all the characteristics of the worst jobs on the planet.

It has been revealed that Negrul Voda, a hardcore EVE player, does not believe what he is doing is “work” despite spending eight hours a day, 40 hours a week looking at spreadsheets of market price fluctuations. 

“It’s so much fun, this game. Last week I saw how the Caldari Drake went down by half a percent in value and I immediately took notice of the situation and bought as many of them as I could. The increase of zero point six percent in value ISK made me a solid return on investment of the price difference, minus the taxation costs and administrative labor. I just had to look at a price spreadsheet for a few hours and it was as easy as that.”

Psychologist Frank Nahome commented on the statement made by the EVE player by saying:

“A lot of players are under the impression that grueling shifts spent staring down spreadsheets, or hauling goods from one system to another for hours for what is literally pennies in real-life currency, is not real work.”

Another EVE player, A. Nagumo, told EVE onion: “I just can’t wait to come home from 8 hours of grueling work as a warehouse worker for Amazon to haul Asteros and frigates to null-sec for hours at a time for what would be literal pennies in real currency.”

When asked why he needs the ISK, if he has no time to spend it on exciting experiences, the player said:

“I have an omega subscription to pay, ISK losses from ganked ships I need to recoup. I don’t have time for that kind of thing. ISK isn’t made on trees, and I can’t default to Alpha you know.”

  1. This obvious scam. Drake price already projected drop three tenths of percent by end of quarter, is just scam ad to get reader buy more Drake.
