Man, you guys are cheap. I hear sex workers get a couple hundred an hour in legal houses, whether it's Nevada or Amsterdam. (Had to look it up... $250 house minimum at the more upscale places in Nevada.)




That's because they want to take FULL advantage possible of guys not being able to think straight but with their other head instead :)

Friends of mine who go to whores either get cheap ones in germany €30 20 minutes and the only other guy that spent more was messed up on cathinone and paid €600 for 4 hours to some random nasty bitch in The Hague... (called me 7.30 in the morning that day saying that he hoped he was dreaming and that he just wasted his savings on this shit :lol: )

So unless if you get some erection-factor going in the Haven store I don't think it's that comparable hahaha.

Also if you're not filled with regret after spending so much then you must have some permanent pussy intoxication which I think is more of a mental disease at that point becuase it shouldn't be thát special hahaha.

But yeah dependant on your spending habits/country where you live $15 could mean more to you...

However even if you're from a poor country I think maybe try 6 months of saving $2,50 should be doable..

If not then you're income is so incredibly low or you have no discipline with saving :D

If you can't save 15$ in 6 month how do you even have internet and a computer ?

Some people around here might be lucky to make $15 a month after you adjust for currency exchanges.

Most people have money for any game, games are cheap. The problem is that the games are far from being top priority on their payments. It's not hard to acquire $15, the question is, is paying $15 for a verification really worth it if you're from a shitty country and don't make a lot of money?

Games are cheap ? They're pretty expensive if you ask me.

But if you are able to afford a computer that runs HnH and a monthly internet connection to play this game a LOT (as he mentioned), then I fail to see how a one time 15$ payment can be a problem. Even that 500GO HDD thing, it's at least 5 times as expensive as the verified account where I live.

So you're telling me I could somehow buy a several 100 $'s computer in a country, but not pay a 15$ subscription because of exchange rates ?

There is something I don't understand here.

Pricing. Not all systems that can play HnH cost several hundred dollars into the thousands. Games are reasonably playable at 15-20 fps--lower in modern games tends to get a lot of input lag or other glitches that early 3D systems didn't seem to experience until you hit sub 10 fps. I could put one together out of used parts for about $150*. Some places have very cheap data services in comparison to the US, UK, Canada, Germany, etc. Most of the cost in data services is in customer service.

*Price of Parts:

CPU $50 (used AMD A6. Unsure if any earlier would run it at a decent frame rate... a few Intel might, but prices generally aren't good enough to go with for a dirt cheap build)
RAM $30 (4GB, could go with less with a small footprint OS like XP or some Linux flavors)
Case/PSU $20
HDD $50, could go cheaper (I almost always get new on these as used/refurb have significantly lower life and reliability)
Peripherals (not including monitor) $10--mouse, keyboard, speakers + microphone, optional as there's always spares laying around.

Pimp takes 50% and you have to pay 150$ for the worklocation per day.
It wasn't as easy to get the money for my gaming laptop together as they told me
