Im looking to see if there is any interest from other corps in sharing a wormhole with me. Im not looking to join an existing corp, I like having full access and not having to wait for anyone to online a mod that I want to use.

So here's the deal: Ive run a C3 in the past by myself, its boring and a lot more dangerous. What im looking for is a corp or corps that would be interested in joining me in a WH or allowing me access to theirs. If desired we could start an alliance. Only things I ask are that you be english speaking and friendly.

Send me a mail in game if youre interested and we can start looking at the options.

Fair word of warning: While this sounds like a great plan on paper, in reality the only thing you will find by sharing a wormhole is pain and suffering and a loss of isk.

First, that is not a good idea its like taking a zombie as a pet during a zombie apocalypse. Seems like it could be fun and what could go wrong as long as your careful, heck we can even have the little guy generate power on a giant hamster wheel....

but then someone gets careless and someone else gets their arm bit or brain chomped on.

Wait... where was I going? Oh yea wormhole sharing, bad move, recruit more people.

By the way when did you acquire that character? He used to be used by an associate of mine a while back I even still have standing toward him.

Hmm, interesting idea.

But first, lets see if/how CCP tweeks POS mechanics

Then we'll talk

I agree on this.. You would either join a alliance to be able of using some POS services via the alliance based available options which are only a few or else if you're able to find a corp willing to share his WH, you would of need to put up your own pos with structures & etc and keep it fueled.

Best options are, drop a alt in your corp to act as CEO to keep it 'alive' and join another or recruit more folks and then go WH.

Honestly this is the best option you'll get. Sharing a WH is not in anyone's best interests unless you represent a larger group of people. Say you have a group of 5 or so people in a corp. Then you are solo. You are breaking into their cut when they're pulling the burden of defense as a corp. So the PI, sites, everything is split to a guy who effectively only represents 1/6 of the defensive burden (if not less, depending on your ship and POS setup in the hole). Personally, I'd rather join an established corp that is very free flowing and casual.

I don't see where it says that you have something to offer

WH sharing can work well it it's in both sides' interest. If a corp is too small to fully take advantage of its system, sharing it with another corp of similar size can provide benefits for all, mainly better ability to do pvp and defend the system.

Security is no issue at all as you cannot access POSes of another corp. Sure they could turn on you and attack your POS, but then everyone else who passes by randomly could do the same.

Me Reply:


  • For a start its in the wrong thread, if your looking for more guys to fly with, the recruitment is there for just that.
  • By the sounds of things you dont have your own hole at the moment.
  • And its sounds like your going to mooch off a small corp thats going to try and get set up, taking there PI, running sites and what benifit would that give them?


If you wanting to do Indy stuff then go join a corp that is indy based.

My 2 cents

Actually, I dont really do the Anom sites, the only things I do are Gas, PI and the occasional ABC ore (but i hate rock mining). Im not on enough to warrant having a hole to myself. I am completely self sufficient (running 4 accounts) and am able to maintain a death star without a problem.

Im not looking to mooch off anyone or recruit people into my corp by posting this here. I can find/buy a wormhole and live in it all by myself and go crazy from the vast emptiness, or I can join up with like minded people/corps, find a hole that works for all of us and have people to talk to, mine with, PvP with and still maintain my ability to run my own pos (boosters, reactions, etc).

I get what you guys are saying about it not being an ideal situation, but if I own a WH and invite corps to live in it with me so they can get WH experiance or whatever they arent really losing anything. Thanks for the replies guys.

Well to expand on what others have said. It is also about trust. No you cannot access each other's respective POS. But you also have to trust that nothing bad will come of it.

For example a small corp, such as yours could offer this kind of situation. Everything seems fine. And then one day you notice an x-large ship assembly array. And now that corp you let in is building caps that could be used to kick you out.

Given that this scenario would be between small corps (the big corps have no reason to even consider a sharing deal like this), now the corp has to figure out if they can burn down your tower before your caps finish cooking.

Think it can't happen? I've seen that type of scenario occur.
