I am looking for a fleet to join, or an orca pilot to allow me to use there bonus, if fleeted I would like to make a fair share, and if just finding an orca FC I would be willing to make a deal for payment.

Most are going to see this as 'please let me in your fleet so I can pop your Orca'.

Because that's how fleet mechanics work, right? Roll

tbh your a small corp with only 2 members have you looked at joining a mining corp that offers fleet boosting as a daily thing

and do a shite ton of research on any corps you join chances are an orca pilot isnt going to randomly invite you to fleet because it is a possibilty u pop her

also try looking into some null sec corps tehy usually have alliance level fleet boosting going

No, seriously, what is the source of this idiocy? There's no greater danger of being popped by a fleetmate than there is of being popped by not-a-fleetmate.

If they want you to join their corp, be wary. If they want you to leave high sec, be wary. Otherwise, if they want to bring enough firepower to suicide a tanked orca, they really don't need to be in your fleet to do that.

Ugh... stupid people everywhere...

Let me help you with that; if you invite a non-corp player into your gang/fleet and they attack you, Concord shows up and removes the attacker from their ship.

You can only fire on Corp mates and not suffer a Concord hotdrop in highsec.

Orca Moms all over Highsec allow random people to join as long as you behave. Ask in your local nicely if there is any T2 boost fleets up and if you can join. They may or may not let you, but if you've been around system for a while and they at least know OF you, then it's certainly possible. Most Orca pilots just don't want their little fleet of 'kids' bothered by some jackass, so don't be a jackass, got the idea.

I would guess that anyone who runs an orca fleet open to the public has their orca sat in a tower so they are safe from awoxers apart from corp/alliance mates

Edit - this will change should CCP ever get rid of off grid boosting which is another story :)

Oh, I've read it. Unlike you, I actually understood it.

"Safariing" is the act of joining someone's corp to AWOX them. You understand there is a difference between joining a corp and joining a fleet, right? You understand that these are completely different constructs governed by completely different sets of rules?

Apparently not.

I guess that explains where this idiocy comes from, though - Idiots who skipped to steps 3 and 4 of PM's safari guide.

Those first few steps - especially the bit where you join the a corp? Yeah, that's really ******* important.

OP did not ask to join a corp, nor did he ask anyone to join his corp. He asked for a fleet, which, by itself, is pretty much completely without value wrt ganking an orca.

then you should reall re-read my post as i state for the Op to look at joining a mining corp and researching them IE KILLBOARDs for stuff like AWOXING please keep falunting your huge INTERWEB muscles tehy frighten kittens everytime or even better keep your *special* comments to yourself and the shortbus where your helmet is might and impressive

If you're already in someone's corp, and you want to AWOX them, you understand that there is absolutely no need to be in their fleet... right? It doesn't really provide any particular benefit. It's not like an Orca is exactly stealthy.

Assuming AWOXer is already in corp, either the orca pilot is smart (and their safety is entirely without regard to fleet status), or they're stupid (and their safety is still without regard to fleet status).

WTZ isn't going to score me a kill on an Orca chilling in a private POS, and a lack of WTZ isn't going to deny me a kill on an orca sitting in a belt.

So, again: Your point had no particular merit within the current game mechanics, and you're silly for continually defending it.

again i was making suggestions to OP and a few pointers on things like checking corps for awoxing the op not the other way around

please leave your interpertation skills and learn to read never said being in our out of fleet means protection stop wording my comments i simply stated but apparently to difficult for your meager intellect to grasp that op needs to be wary of joining random fleets he can be awoxed in a corp or in a random fleet

have a good day DBAG

Calm down, bro, it's not my fault that you don't understand how fleet mechanics work.

I'm sure you'll learn someday.

Haulie is correct, and your highlighting your lack of understanding.

To break it down barney style:
1. Kill rights are not granted by joining a fleet
2. Kill rights are granted by joining a corp

So...joining a fleet is ok, joining a corp is dangerous.
