Crime & Punishment

October Update:

SYJ has expanded its influence in lowsec with more of an emphasis on Aridia/Solitude while still maintaining a strong presence in Genesis. Our move (6 jumps) to Aridia, provides more varied opportunities for our clients.


Why live in lowsec?

Well many people will say that 0.0 is the place to be. The assumption goes that this game progresses highsec to lowsec to nullsec in a linear model. In reality however the three carry varied benefits which may be better or worse in respect to the other forms of secspace. So what are lowsec's benefits?

Not tied to sov. You never have to worry about having your assets locked in station.

Lowsec specific perks such as Thukker Towers, lowsec industry, and area specific ores.

Moon mining and POS ownership.

Mine, build and sell with relative ease with minimal logistical hardship.

Not limited to any one system.



Conventional renting in 0.0 sees you limited to the system you pay for. In our program, the entire of region of influence is open to you to do as you please. Just as a point of reference, a single system out in 0.0, on a pipe with a sec status of -0.10, no ice, no stations, will cost you around 1 billion. A single truesec system that is dead end, no ice, no station will cost you over 10 billion. While that may be appealing to some, it isn't for everyone and in Lowsec you can find a much more manageable position with benefits unique to the area.



The previous program I ran in Khanid and Kor-Azor lowsec saw us protecting a dozen clients which benefited from our patronage and we in turn were mutually pleased by their contributions. Since the program in Khanid, I've learned many ways to improve and streamline the process in order to make things simpler and more orderly for future clients. Send me a line if you have any questions.


How does this work? Contact me (Seraph IX Basarab) in game or via Eve mail to negotiate a fair price. Afterward you'll join an in game channel with a list of other members to establish diplomatic ties. You can work together if you'd like or you can ignore one another.

That's it, it's that simple. No API checks, extra fees for this and that. Just pay a cheap price, build your corp, do your business and if someone bothers you, we'll bother them back.

It isn't a scam. Thanks for asking though.

They aren't, as long as the persons whom purchase the permits abide by the conduct outlined in the Code.

If anyone is doubtful of the lowsec renting program, they simply need to inquire the past parties whom have participated. It really is a win-win for parties concerned. If you have a corp of 200 people, nullsec probobly works just fine for you. However, if you have a corp of under 50, living in lowsec with a superbase of blue pirates right next door may be just what you need.

If you are legitimately interested, and would like your questions answered, then contact Seraph.

I dont speak for him, I am just a member of the alliance hosting the program. He may decide to answer your questions publicly, he may prefer to work in privacy.

But I do know that we dont shoot blues, and that the last time he did this, it worked out. Its not a scam.

Thats all I will say on it, as I dont run the program.

Then why even reply to my question if you do not have the authority to do so..

Until BL came along eh? What's to stop that happening again?

Speaking of which, when did you join syj?

+1 for SYJ rentals.

+1 for content guys. Whatever I may think of your tactics, you are doing something right here.

So it's not really renting is it?

More like paying 'protection' money to the local triad/mafia family until another bigger group comes along and moves them along.

I like it. Fits with the concept of low sec perfectly IMO :)
