i think around 50 euros, and i think it isnt wasted. A game you buy for 60 euros doesnt entertain for over 3 years

Which ones are we talking about? Because as I gather from your statement, that means what a player has spent for playing silkroad.

hmmm....

10,000 silk for avatar, pet, pet life extension, SP GT and GT PLus, globals, reverse scrolls, tigers and beetles for me, and as gifts to friends. (small amount compared to what most players bought I guess).

But If I include the following:

1. Computer time paid for at Internet Cafes in three countries
2. Two flash disks that has SRO in it, and which I always carry around.. just in case...
3. Phone bills from calling and talking to other fellow SRO gamers.
4. cash to a friend who used it to purchase a new Video Card, with the intention that he PLVL me while my GT is on.(naahh... he barely did).
5. A Brand New Computer I have just purchased with Playing SRO as the purpose, but will be using to play SRO on November when I go on a vacation from work.
6. Internet Connection.
7. Time spent playing, which could have been used to learn a new language, or whatever you guys may propose.

I guess you're right. I won't try to quantify it... hmmm...

HOT DAMN! I SPENT THAT MUCH ALREADY?

5. A Brand New Computer I have just purchased with Playing SRO as the purpose, but will be using to play SRO on November when I go on a vacation from work.you can use it for more stuff than sro

6. Internet Connection.you'd have internet anyways so even without sro you would pay for it

About 500 $ in 1.5 years . I had enough I quit sro I might play again at 100 Cap but prolly not

LillDev!l · **Joined:** Aug 2007 **Posts:** 2587 **Location:** OTL&OG

I play since late 70 cap, dint buy silk first year, after that i charged +/- 200 silk per 1.5-2 months (usualy 2

).
I know people who spend so incredibly much though x__X every month a prem plus, devil spirit, grab pet, astrals immortals damage scrolls reverse returns (a lot of em)globals (and on top of it enough buy gold and pay for a bot lol)
lets just say people spent per week what i get payd per month

(okay okay, maybe not that much but close xD)

$5000, maybe more.

No, seriously.

how long do you play ? spending over 100 a month xD? how much silk can you need

BloodyBlade · **Posted:** Sat Feb 14, 2009 4:11 pm

Oh well, if Joymax is smart, they should implement 100cap soon, this will get them loads of money, thanks to the reverse return scroll used.

I started in 2006 and have spent $0.00

. And maybe 1.2 years but i quit for a while cause SRO died. I never understood why people spend so much money on a game

About 50$. Been playing for 3 years.

Nixie · **Joined:** Aug 2007 **Posts:** 1108 **Location:**

About 150$, and playing for about 2 years now. I just buy premium when I know I'll have the time to grind it off.

Phantasma · **Joined:** Jan 2008 **Posts:** 471 **Location:**

20$, started slightly before 70 cap.
And the time wasted... blah. Though if I consider the time I wasted with gaming, its too much :banghead:

. But since I had fun, time wasnt completely wasted

20 USD

Although I am strongly considering Coming back and maybe buying some stuff.

Quite a few people stated that they only spent $20, $50, $100 etc since they started playing and I bet they say this with a proud and smug expression on their face. But I would guess that half of them had to put in a lot more playing time than those that did buy silk.

If you toss into the equation the amount of time spent playing SRO without prems, grab pets, reverse returns scrolls etc then SRO might have cost them way more than the people that actually bought silk. Because that time spent playing without mall items couldav been used for a real job.

I took a look at it and well

Over 3 accounts and several random donations (not sure about that specific number:
Account 1:750+3750+4950+900
Account 2:0+0+1950+250
Account 3:0+0+0+300
Add ons: About a total of 500..give or take 100.

That's 13350 silk...So around 1-1.1k euro >.<

I had fun from it but I wish I didn't spend it on this and bought a sick ass pc instead xD

Really? It is those who spend more silk spend more time playing, which results in them wasting more money since that time can be used for a real job. Those who buy more silk are generally more addicted, and so they would be spending more time on the game. It is just that those who spend less silk would be lower level/weaker.
