EVE General Discussion

Hello all,

Great game. Have studied hard and am doing very well i think as a new player.
Am in high sec as a solo "carebear" and i'll tell u several reasons why.

Analysing corps for joining and taking into account all of the alts this game has, it is hard to trust certain criteria corps. You join a corp, then their alts take u out in that corp, corp loses members and the cycle begins again.
Even though i'm new, it didnt take long for a pattern to emerge.
Wardec histories and alliance statistics give certain red flags for me.
One point for NPC corps.

When i did find great newer/younger corps to join that really wanted to make a go of it, they are being wardecced at every opportunity.
Again another point for npc corps.

End result for new players, when in high sec can mine, do missions, epics, and have a great npc crew to talk to without the hassle of wardecs. They can actually get things done and build without having to "rebuild" on a weekly basis.
There are public mining fleets with orcas, where we all work together, we help each other in missions and other matters, just like a player corp.
The willingness and determination is out there amongst new players/corps in eve.
Another point for npc corps.

My suggestion, have high sec (1.0,0.9) areas free of wardecs on corps. Conditions apply for corps to move out of that sector for re-establishment and integration into eve; once having reached said amount of members or timeframe.
These conditions will motivate the corps to hire, train and succeed to move on. Plus ur getting good operational new corps into eve environment.

Why, well once established and new players/corps get some knowledge, then wardecs would be appropriate, and at that time bigger corps can add them as an alliance.
This would enhance better stability for new players, as the learning curve is steep enough in eve.

AND, for you pvpr's the wardecs would be more juicy looking corps, and wont make u look so bad going after eve players who know nothing, lol. Seriously, anyone proud of a defenseless miner kill record is a waste of human skin, lol.

Again, am new, and just relaying what my observations are so far.
Your points and views would be appreciated.


Thank you kindly

mhhhh human skin and interesting idea

THIS will l never, ever happen.

Would one's Corp have to be based there ? Only operate there ? Useless then as a POS cannot be anchored in systems that high.

Plus it's a situation of not enough of the better ores to mine, or high quality Exploration sites.

My income would = nerf.

No thanks. Sorry.

Ladies and Gents,

Let me re-iterate my previous suggestion.

Would we all not want everyone to move out of highsec into low sec and beyond to enjoy the rest of eve?

I certainly would not like to be in an npc corp permanently while my stay here, there is too much to explore do and learn about this great game from seasoned player corps.

Is there not a general consensus about too many new corps?

My idea would be as stated, u have 3 months and min 40-50 max membership to get ur corp trained and prepared to move into eve environment. No building of pos's etc or establish ur self permanently, those are the rules.
Your corp can move out if u feel ur ready before time frame.
This will inject good sized corps into eve with a basic set of skills and objectives/contacts etc for alliances.
If none of the criteria is met, the corp starts over or joins another to move into eve environment.

No more 1 man corps, no more zillions of little ones, no more looking through tax shelters as a newb, good basic skilled player corps coming out of newb space is what i'm proposing.

And no, its not crying as a newb, and nothing has to be fixed, it is only a suggestion to alleviate the concerns of vet corps, newbs and pvpr's alike, that i have listened to since i started.

Again, inputs are most welcome

Thank you kindly

I'm sorry that you join corps that are unwilling to defend themselves. Would you also argue that smaller corps in nullsec should be immune to being shot at my larger and better organized corps? In what other ways should we be nerfing ability?

I'm not attacking your logic here, just offering some really good advice. Your reasons for staying in an npc corp in high are the exact reasons why high sec is so bad.

Go to null. You will have a far, far better social situation in most null corps than you will ever get in an npc corp. There will also be people there who really know what they're doing and will be able to offer you invaluable advice as a newbro. Wardecs are, for the most part, far less of a problem in null than they are in high because you have a whole alliance of people who actually give a **** to back you up. Finally, you WILL get bored of your 'solo carebearing' , get out of high sec ASAP and you will enjoy the game a whole lot more.

As a side note, it's not nearly as hard to find a friendly, decent null corp as many posters here will try and tell you. And yes, they will accept people with less than 10^17 skill points.

It's a bit off topic, but I never understand these kinds of remarks. How about the human competition in an MMO? Or how about interacting with others (chat, messages, etc.) without wanting to be part of a tribe straight away. And how about just letting people choose their own way of enjoying the game?

Back to the OP: it's definitely an issue that deserves some attention, so thanks for starting this thread (in such a constructive way).

You bring up good points, but there are ways around that. I think the OP does bring up some valid issues and concerns. I dont agree with everything he's states, but I understand the general context of what he's trying to convey.

I thought this would a a 'stealth something' thread.

Indeed I was right.

Boy, are you gonna love reading what I have to say about my finally one month of playing in Low Sec.....NOT !


Next...........

bump,



Hey all, ty so much for the input, definitely good points to ponder over.

Pros and cons, and how I affect eve in my own little world, GOOD POINT.


Will adjust mindset and remap, LOL.
