CCP the company behind Eve Online now has a program that allows secure trading of in game currency to pay for time cards. Players can buy a time card for real cash then trade that card for in game currency, so far I have traded enough game cash for time cards to pay for 2 subs for 6 months - a $180 value to me but the ISK I traded was enough to buy the most elite of ships or mods.

I honestly have mixed feelings about it, on one hand I'm saving cash out of my pocket but at the same time I feel those who are trading with me are "cheating their way to the top" by not earning the in game currency like I do. At the same time if there was a store in game where I could sell items for cash in my pocket I would have to really consider giving it a go.
