those space MMO people that do the corperate guild wars that cost them 100's of thousands of IRL dollars

those articles about Eve online with X amount of dollars blown up in a battle/war are all misleading clickbait.
the only EQ analogy i can come up with is idk like paying a guild 100+k for a no drop raid item instead of just being a member of said guild and buying the same item for 10dkp.
the people "funding" the wars ingame are doing so via ingame currency generation methods orders of magnitude more efficient and less retarded than the formula all those articles go by which assumes every single titan lost in the battle was paid for by someone buying a hundred billion isk worth of game time codes on the credit card and selling those ingame for the funds to buy a titan
the most expensive war was funded by a dude who made a casino website people could use ingame money on, dude printed literally trillions and hired the entire galaxy to kill the SA Goons so the game company banned casinos, and him obviously because he tried to RMT eventually
