All Players

You will be part of a team where everyone is respected for the game they play. Lack of alliance infrastructure means we all keep our ISK to buy our own ships and play the game of our choice. We will have to respect you. If we are not running things to your satisfaction and you can't make the Alliance change however it is it would have to change in order to accommodate you, your corp can just leave. You are still in NPC nullsec or hi sec or wherever and you have as good a claim to the place as we, your former alliance. Nobody has to take bad treatment from some feckless geek at his computer keyboard with delusions of adequacy because he can kick their entire corp out of "his" alliance and strand all their stuff in now hostile space. Gentlemen, I say to you with all due lack of decorum: screw that. There is absolutely no reason you have to put up with that sort of thing in your computer game and we won't ever again if we can make this work. And we'll have made something that will demand better EVE play from all of us, right through to the top. Now that's saying something.

If you don't get new players into PvP quickly, they're going to leave. PvE in EVE just plain sucks.


Well I've not been a fan of PvP since early in the game but I know people who thrive on it. And I know people who think the indy side is too boring for words--they'd be bored just saying how bored they are by it. And then there are the people who find neither of these quite right. They are looking for the metagame.

Big smile

Step 2: Recruiters and recruits.

Get your recruiters into the newbie systems. You can do this with alts quite effectively. You drop and drag links to your corp into local chat and start bantering. Invite everyone in local to your public channel. for an example of a public channel see our Vomitorium Emporium. Your public channel should be stocked with all your members possible and make it mandatory for recruiters and officers. Do yourself the favor of having only one public channel. You public channel should have all the necessary links, Skillpoint and other requirements, names of recruiters, voice comm info, etc.

By inviting people into your public channel you are pre selecting for an audience receptive to meeting new people. This is so important its easy to overlook. The people who do not want to chat with new people who are not interested either do not accept the invite or they leave. The people are left are a "captive audience" who have given you the first go ahead to interact without which any efforts are almost certainly waste. Let your members know before you are inviting new people for them to have fun bantering with and they will help you just by being their usual wiseass selves.

You job is to move them from local to the public channel, to your corp, to voice comms, and finally to your roster of people who have assignments or at least are showing up on a semi regular basis to stuff.

Thanks.
