If what you say is true then thats sad. SO much potential wasted. Null could be such a fun filled wild west place. Thats what I thought it was anyway.


NPC Null is the Wild West. Sov Null is Romance of the Three Kingdoms.


As far as suggestions of who to join, Waffles is a lot of fun. But do not join if you feel entitled to people being nice to you. We won't be (though very few people are actually blindly and randomly abusive). But if you're active, you will almost certainly improve from being useless to being terrible at EVE (a lofty goal that everyone should aspire to).



If you can't even be bothered to be nice to me and tell me I'm special and beautiful EVERY day....then why would I join you??

...pfft....hell's THIS guy's deal?

I'm special. I want to hear it.

I'm beautiful too dammit.

Doobay!!!

Individual corporations have vastly different standards on recruiting. The only corp that draws from a paid for forums is Goonwaffe, and we're a corp for the small minority of forum members that happen to play EVE; it is not a forum for people that want to fly with us.

TheMittani.com and Kugutsumen.com have good articles and threads on the high level Null Sec warfare going on. Before you make the jump into Null, unless you already have friends and connections there, I would familiarize yourself with the basics of PVP and get involved in something like FW, RvB or EVE Uni to figure out if you even like that level of organized fleet combat.

Hehe...their in RvB.

Haven't been playing long, so I'm really just asking questions and not complaining but:

-Took a look @ the SOV map earlier and noticed the huge blobs. Did more research and read up on these "coalitions". My question is: do these guys ever actually fight? Given how large these Alliances are, any hostile activity between them would be noticeable or at least be talked about on the forums. Just seems like everyone's buddy-buddy and scared to fight and lose ships and SOV. Is that how Null is?

-How exactly does one go about joining this conflict (if there is one). I know about spies and them having strict rules on admission but others told me these guys require you to join a forum (that you have to pay for) and wait like 3-4 months.

...can I get into some large scale pvp without having to wait 1/4 of a year??

- I know about Eve University but it takes them too long to let you in. Are there any other large scale noob corps out ? I'm interested in Manufacturing and Piracy.

- On average how is this community towards new players?

Doobay.

null sec pvp is the be't learning school for pvp , since there is ALWAYS something going on , small gang ; large gang roams , defence fllets , large fleet ops etc and most alliances / large corporations use doctrines , meaning they use cerrtain ships and fits that work well together and are mostly well in reach for any newer player
i ve learned more about pvp in the last 3 months than in the previous 3 years , and there are plenty of corporations that are looking for new people
Nor do you need uber pvp skills , the vets will give you advice and teach you all they can nor are you on your own
So best of luck out there

I do not agree with what you are saying , but i will defend to the death your right to say it...... Voltaire
