What manner of witchcraft is this. Shocked

Maybe it happens when the last member in the corp biomasses?

Is it possible that what people are seeing are corps that weren't closed, but instead all the members just quit the corp?

I thought the whole DOT thing was due to not being unable to use old corp and alliance names.


But didn't goons themselves take the Band of Brothers name after getting it closed? I think they only do the dot thing for corps/alliances that are dead but not closed yet.

I suspect it's just a bug, petition it and they might free it up.

I've just tested this and i take back my words in regards of inability to recreate corps that were closed under same name - it is, indeed, possible. I'm sorry for the misinformation on my part.

As for why corporation with 0 members was not closed down - maybe it's a bug of sorts and something actually prevents it from being properly closed down. Like anchored stuff that still belongs to corp (containers, poses, pocos) or outstanding contracts/ads/whatever.

Maybe we should report it to CCP so they can properly investigate it?

Can we please have Player Corporations deleted, if they have 0 members? Or have been inactive for like 5 years.

You can witness this yourself if you inspect the Corporation Finder tool.


Only if inactive towers in high sec are allowed to be popped without consequence or unanchored and taken.
