This story is a month old but I've only just read it. See page 2 for someone spending $100,000 on plex's in Eve online to fund his gameplay. Now Eve online is a subscription game unlike Entropia, although it has always had people buying Isk for money in order to replace destroyed battleship - but this is on a scale I couldnt believe!

CCP are ruthless in banning people for buying and selling isk outside approved channels, whereas Mindark love you if you deposit large sums into their universe.

Anyway, here's the link:

Share some of that oil boy!

But really, why spend that much money for a few pixels, I mean it's only a game.
And the EvE story, bleh, go farm your Isk and don't buy it.
