Alliance & Corporation Recruitment Center

Aspiring Recruiters:


Thank you for your time.

My name is Tarannus. I am a US-Timezone pilot with stress-induced insomnia and over 109 million skill points. In game, I have a penchant for lusting over big, shiny, things and gathering lots of toys to use for "fund raising" and blowing up other people's expensive investments.

You may find my current character sheet via Eveboard here.

I prefer to be a team player - a reliable backup or pinch hitter that'll step to the plate when the team needs it, and an ISK-gathering hoarder when not on campaign.

I have some PvP experience, but mostly in fleets above 10 people. In the interest of honesty and fair play, I freely admit that I do not like the prospect of solo or small-gang PvP. I do not consider myself to be very good at it, nor do I feel confident in my abilities as a fleet commander because I have extremely limited experience. The fact that I hate the sound of my own voice doesn't help things either.

For the last four months I have lived as a self-imposed exile in a corporation of my own design, mining low-end ores with little more than an alt and the voices that reside within one's skull for companionship. Frankly, I've become bored with this arrangement, and now look to this channel for inspiration.

If you are interested in recruiting me, I have only one specific caveat: honesty.

I want you to be honest about your corporation. If you are a squatter living out of a small Minmatar POS deep in Insmother four capital jumps away from any marketplace and completely surrounded by reds, I'd like to know about it. If you're a mining corporation that just lost 30 billion in corp assets and personal ships from an officer you completely trusted for the last 2 years, I'd like to hear about it. If your corporation feels like it's dying because recruitment has dried up, or lost a hundred and twenty members due to an activity purge or being kicked out of an alliance, I'd prefer to be informed about it.

I want you to be honest about your prospects. Are you a small corporation that has every ambition to go into 0.0, but the only offers are alliances from NPC regions? Are you part of a big alliance that has more political intrigue and backbiting than a Frank Herbert novel? Do you have trouble keeping more than 5 people online in corp chat at any given time?

If you are honest with me, I'll be honest with you. Frankly, I'm looking at nearly any corporation that has more than 20 unique members, but would preferably like to be in a corporation that's been around for a minimum of 2 1/2 to 3 years and has more than 80 people. The type of work done (mining, NPC gathering, PvP) is immaterial, provided that corporation activities do allow enough free time to raise ISK without resorting to spending real world cash.

I'd prefer to be part of a large, established alliance in nullsec (although my knowledge of the relevant political blocs is quite old and will need to do some research to insure I'm not being taken for a ride), but any corp who is honest and forthright will get a fair shake. Wormhole space does intrigue me, although my experience there is very rudimentary and would require some guidance.

If there is even the vaguest sense of interest, don't hesitate to reply here in this thread or send me an evemail. If I find the proposal interesting enough, I'll reply and we can begin arranging more personal conversations in the channel or voice program of your choosing.

Once again, I thank you for your time and look forward to all replies.

Sincerely,

Tarannus

hey, i am interested in a chat. Check my sig for some more details

In-game mail sent, hoping to get a reaction from you soon!

Thank you for all of the replies so far. I encourage any and all interested parties to keep sending evemails and placing forum posts.

I've received a number of very compelling offers, and have been pleasantly surprised with people's assessments of their particular corporations. There are a few proposals that have piqued my interest, but the iron is still in the fire and hasn't taken shape just yet.

And now a little honesty from me. The final decision making process will take, at a minimum, at least a week. I don't like moving around a lot, and rather prefer to be in a corp that for a year and a half that has a good social anchor rather than take the first offer I see - only to leave after two weeks because it doesn't feel like a good fit.

All the best to everyone, and I look forward to your messages.

Sent a mail to you. Honestly your post just inspired me. I kinda wanted to see what I would say haha. I doubt we'll talk, but either way, cheers for a good post.
