The comms channel is always lively with EU and US dudes, a respectful bunch who really know how to have a good laugh.

We've recently gained some excellent new members who bring a lot to the corp individually and as a group.

If your looking to enjoy yourself on coms, ingame and out (via SLACK) join our CAT0P Public channel to speak to us!

Right you lucky LUCKY Pod Pilots.

It's time for a forum post from the marvellous Mithandra

NO NO step away from the close window button...... sheeesh some people eh?

Now what did I want to talk to you all about today I wonder.... Oh yes Catastrophic Operations.

Two words that if truth be told should never appear in the same sentence, never mind next to each other. I mean Gallipoli was a Catastrophic Operation, especially for the thousands of commonwealth soldiers who died on the beaches there. History is ripe with examples of Catastrophic Operations. The thing that stands out in all of those examples is the bravery, the camaraderie and the sheer determination of those involved on both sides of the divide.

Much like my corporation, Catastrophic Operations.

We go in to fleet battles knowing that we are going to get mullered, and we do everything we can to ensure that we survive. Sometimes we win, sometimes we lose, sometimes we have no clue who won or lost , but that's the way of some of the alliance battles we have fought in.

We make big plans, BIG plans, and the whole corp pitches in.

Often, the name Catastrophic Operations refers to the damage inflicted upon our enemies as we rampage through their systems, stealing their horses and womenfolk (aka "stuff") but honesty compels me to admit that Catastrophic Operations could also apply to some of our more hare-brained schemes that have literally fallen in tatters around our feet. It happens. We get up, dust ourselves off (kneecap the FC or CEO but that's another story) and get on with enjoying the game.

Can you say the same? If you can, come chat with us in channel cat0p public. Its an eye opener and well worth your time.

Oh hello my little ponies :o

so.. topic.. recruitment.. corps.. EvE.

Why I play games. I play games to spend my time in some decent(for me), interesting(also for me)way and to have some fun.
I have played several other MMO-s, I had luck in them to find people to play with, but people left, game was still there but it wasn't same game anymore. I switched MMo few times, sometimes i had luck to find team to play with, sometimes luck was not there.

In EvE I started alone. I have met few nice people, just a few at that time, i started to play for myself, changed corp only few times. Some time after - I Joined Cat0p. For me it was 180 turnaround in game experience as i was mostly care-bear. Corp and ally fleets, events, killing, exploding, exploding and killing again(also ratting and mining, exploring, indy) - just what i only could imagine - it was there.

I found people to play and have fun with at the same time.
I don't plan to leave anytime soon.

If you feel like and wish to have fun with multi nationality folks(US, EU TZ) - why not join us in channel "cat0p public"? It doesn't cost anything and you might find just the team to play with.

Tap Dancing Space Hamsters(tm); a proven cure for everything from Space Aids to Pod Pilot Burnout. A worthy project.. certainly worthy of your ducats.

So what shall we talk about today my little lovebirds hmm?

Big Girl Panties.

Before you run screaming uncontrollably in search of the Inappropriate Comments Police or flag my post up for violent non consensual action by the forum moderators, let me elaborate and explain.

It's an expression used in much the same way as hard the frakk up, without the negative connotations inherent therein. At its base is the premise that we, not others, are responsible for our own actions, and that we must accept the consequences of those actions, be they good, bad or actionable in a court of law.

A few examples of the phrase in use:-

"Look Sid, you joined (insert name of non LAWN alliance here) of your own free will, so put your big girl panties on and stop complaining about their lack of space cred"

"Dudebro, you decided to fly through lowsec in an unfitted panther, and got podded? Stop with the emo rage quit **** and put your big girl panties on"

Too many times my poor ears have been regaled with stories of derring do and crazy stuff that would have succeeded if hadn't been for those pesky kids daphne!! Big Girl Panty Time. Stop blaming everyone else for your actions and mistakes, and MAN or WOMAN up.

You are NOT the centre of EVE. In a strange quirk of fate it turns out that I am, but I'm magnificent enough to handle it without becoming a swollen headed knobjockey.

Where am I going with this? Well to answer those of you at the back scratching their heads, and clearly in need of a medicated shampoo containing selenium, I shall explain.

Catastrophic Operations is built on the premise of Big Girl Panties. Whine about how unfair something is, or how the enemy are lame because they pulled a Crazy Ivan on your fleet and mullered everyone, and you will find our sympathy meter firmly fixed on zero.

If you can take the hard knocks dished out by an uncaring universe with equanimity, then you my young Jedi Apprentice are just the pilot we are looking for in Catastrophic Operations.

Come join us in the channel "cat0p public" for a chat. Seriously, it wont be a waste of your time.

Contact either myself , Spacetart or Yama Epona for more details.

Since you are here and still looking for a corp, I assume you haven't read Mithandras posts in this thread, otherwise you would already be in our public channel.
So grab a cup of coffee, and scroll up a bit and enjoy those posts :)

I'll see you in 'cat0p public' soon :)

Welcome one and all, to the greatest thread in the Eve Universe.

What makes this thread so special? I'm so glad you asked that my dear. This thread is special for two especially special reasons.

One. I, Mithandra post regularly to this thread. That in and of itself is enough to grant this thread "special" status

Two. It's supposedly a recruitment thread for Catastrophic Operations; a quirky , zany, fun group of people who coincidentally include myself, Mithandra amongst their numbers. I say "supposedly, because I tend to ramble when posting, so the thread usually turns into a clinical psychiatrists view of my subconscious identity. Way cheaper than therapy and infinitely more enjoyable.

If you have two brain cells to rub together, then it's easy to see why Catastrophic Operations would be the perfect corp for you. If you don't then well done for being able to read this far. The lovely nurse will show you the way to the quiet room.

Now for those of you whose synapses are pulsing properly, the sales pitch.


Catastrophic Operations has a good number of members in the UK, EU and US time zones

Whilst primarily a Not Blue Shoot It In The Face (NBSIITF) PVP entity with a strong showing in Corporation, Alliance and Imperium fleets, Cat0Ps has its fingers in many MANY other pies.

Our Miners and Industrialists rejoice in the esoteric art forms of "rippin the roids" and "building the goods." Its best to leave them to it to be honest because when their activities get interrupted they tend to go all wrath of khan on the culprit(s).

We have people who like nothing better than slipping in to a hole, to stir things up a bit for fun. These guys also plan our invasion routes to points far away through wormholes. Wormholes are like superhighways to fun content in other peoples space.

Then there's the Relic Hunters, strange people in beat up ships and stupid hats. They spend their time scanning, scanning, scanning and scanning for those elusive pots of ISK at the end of the light based refracted visual phenomenon.

Next, at the lower end of the food chain reside the Ebenezer like shallow souled, squinty eyed individuals channelling the spirit of Christmas past. If there's isk to be had, they are in like Flynn. Ratters, Escalation runners, et al.

Finally, there are the steely eyed thunder children, in their chariots of fire, calling down gods own redemption on the heretics, the lost, the misinformed.. in brief, anyone not blue and therefore a legitimate target for their puritanical zeal. PVP in all its multifaceted glory

There are only two things they all have in common; one, their loyalty to catastrophic Operations and their fellow pilots, and two, when called upon, they all fleet up to project the power.

According to Aleister Crowley, founder of the Thelemite religion, and life long occultist, there is but one rule - "do what thou wilt, shall be the whole of the law"

We prefer "Do what thou wilt, till its time to shoot someone in the face, and don't crap on your fellow corpies, shall be the whole of the law."

If my meagre ramblings have struck a chord with you, then please feel free to join me Mithandra.. and coincidentally a bunch of other people, in channel Cat0p Public for a chat.

Or drop a line to one of our recruiters

Oh my.

This just wont do.

I found this poor frightened thread languishing , languishing I say on page 4 of the recruitment forum.

It deserves better. It deserves to fly free, soaring over the heads of lesser threads like, like a big soary thing with wings and a beak, and, and other ornithological paraphernalia.

Fly my thread, Fly !!

I've gone cold turkey on Caffeine, so apart from the withdrawal headaches, my brain seems to be throwing a fit, so bear with me as I work through this trying time.


CATASTROPHIC OPERATIONS. So magnificent I had to use capitals, because the smaller letters fainted.

We are primarily a PVP corporation based in the Vale of the Silent, with a strong UK,EU,US time zone presence. But wait what was that? Why do I separate out UK and EU? Aren't they the same? Well, no my little love monkeys they are most definitely NOT the same, but I digress.

Though we are primarily a PVP corporation, our members exploit the isk making opportunities of our space to the maximum.

Our mining and industrial brethren can, and have, built pretty much everything there is to build in game

Our spelunkers have yet to find a hole they didn't like, and our explorers can be heard muttering in dark corners about data and relic something or others. Truth be told I tend to avoid them, they smell funny and twitch uncontrollably.

Everyone however PVPs when required

Our public channel is Cat0p Public

And who are our merry , talented, fun and feisty recruiters?

It's "oh my god its early" here in Mithandra land, and I am awake and posting to my corporations recruitment thread.

I suffer from frequent bouts of insomnia. It's hard for someone who's brain is as magnificnt as mine to shut down, to surrender, to sleep. Its a burden i have to bear.

But tonight? No dear curious thread follower, its not the insomnia keeping me awake, oh no. Its my tender hearted concern for all of you poor waifs and strays out there that have yet to be gathered into the warm embrace of catastrophic operations. I toss and turn dear readers, I fret. I worry about your descent into dissillusionment and depression; never finding salvation in the service of the one true corporation. That is what keeps me awake at night.

I cannot rest until I have spread the word to the darkest of the lost and confused souls out there, even to those who are thrice damned in the eyes of BOB; the pariahs, the untoucheables, the pandemic legion. All may be redeemed in the rebirth that is membership of catastrophic operations. All may find solace from a cold, hard and uncaring universe in our loving embrace.

All I that ask is you repent with all of your heart, your sins of ommission and commission. Cast off your mantle of dark shadows. Dedicate yourself to something greater than your own petty ego, desires and wants. Brothers and Sisters, I say to you there IS salvation and it IS waiting for you. All it requires is that you reach out and ask for it with honesty, humility and perhaps a little humour.

To begin your path to salvation, i would recommend reading some posts in this thread especially those written by myself Mithandra, and Sister Yama Epona of the holy order of human resources.

Next, with the words of Catops resounding in the echo chambers of your brain, you might try out channel "cat0p public" where saints and sinners can mingle freely.

Lastly, as you approach a state of acceptance of your need to be part of something bigger than yourself, might i suggest that you contact one of the following brethren, each of whom is suitably qualified to guide your steps on to the path of righteousness -

Mithanda
Yama Epona
Spacetart.

I shall pray for your souls, and hope that my meagre light helps guide you to salvation before you become damned for all eternity, or join pandemic legion. Poh tay toe, pot ah toe.
