...But two years ago, I bought a Merc Pack with a Dragonfly Scout and a beloved Toxin SMG for $20, and a spate of MLT BPOs for a few dollars more. I also came into the possession of a Sever Logi somewhere in all of it. I always felt sort of impure, having paid for a FTP game, and not running on my earned ISK in the entirety.
Today, I sold them all for next to nothing in ISK. My inventory is barely a page long now, and getting shorter while I transition to as much Amarr-only gear as is reasonably possible.
Let's give a shout out for Purist OCD!

I have nearly 400,000,000 ISK, what's a few mil more (or less)? I'm grinding my way through the ISK slowly, and will one day be back to Starter fits.
By my calculations, seven years.

Could have just waited for player trading, which is coming next client update according to CCP Rattati's trello board, and got something Amarr in exchange. You gained nothing (but a few tiny bit of ISK), yet you could have just saved it for a while and gained something good.

Nah, I got my use out of them, I just wanted them gone. The money is inconsequential.

But by keeping them, you wouldn't have lost anything. It's not about the money, it's about what the money could have got you (Amarr stuff), could have traded it for Amarr Templar BPO gear, Amarr Tash-Murkon BPO gear, Amarr Apex BPO gear, or any other kind of Amarr rare precious stuff you wanted. This is like burning down your old house before moving to a new one instead of just selling it and using the money to pay for a house you like. Just because you don't have use for something doesn't mean you... nevermind, I'm going to bed.

It's about being ISK-only. No BPOs, no AUR gear, heck, no starter fits. Someone's gotta do it.

I share your purist attitudes.
However, I still own all of my BPOs (even the ones for modules that don't exist anymore)

It's respectable. However you will still know you spent money. You should devise some other form of punitive measure to clear your conscience. |

Heh.
Considering the rate that I get killed in this game, I dare to disagree, but I'll listen to any reasonable plans toward increased righteousness.
