EVE General Discussion

So let mw see if I got this straight.

You are starting a "newbro" corp to provide "trial by fire content specifically to new players.
Tax rate is 5%.
Your vested interest is in running a study for purposes of your school program (and btw you need to delcare to all participants of a studt openly that they are participating in one, its purpose, and request consent).
You claim to have sourced 100 players (which I hope is not 100 trial accounts made by yourself).

You do not have CEO experience, but also do not want in-corp participation from experienced CEOs or investors, but suggestions are welcom3.

In order to finance content for this corp, you are looking for biomassing/inactive players to donate their assets to you.

Is this all accurate so far?

Sorry for being blunt, but I ran a similar racket in UO back in the day.

I wasnt running a study, nor did I claim to be forming a guild for newbs with which to finance it, but I simply hung around banks advertising my garbage disposal/recycle services with a character called "Ivan Garbage" dressed in road safety neon yellow garb, to older/wealthy/leaving players.

The payoff was enormous, especially from occassional idgaf leaving players who gave me all their many years worth of accumalation of stuff (and sometimes outright cash) as well as titles to their real estate. Mostly they where lonely guys who just wanted someone to offer a sympathetic ear and shpulder, listen to stories of their glory days, and one last feel of contribution and community while they ended their game experience. I got their stuff, they got one last amicable experience and a way to leave the game with some dignity and someone who listened and commiserated. I was very good at that, and sincere about that.

Smaller but substantial profits came from valuable stuff others junked through me simply to spare themselves the 10s it would take to move to the in-game garbage can, which I promptly resold on various vendors.

(Inb4 garbage disposal/recycle/retirement services now appear en masse in EVE)

The fact this is a school program for you, concerns me, as does it being a study, in which case you need to declare that and get consent, as well as it raises questiins about your commitment beyond your school program/study and motives.Doesnt sound like a newbro corp to me, sounds like an experiment run on new players as if they where insects in an ant-farm.

Im also perplexed how you have managed to source 100 new players.

Also you having no CEO experience, raises questions about what kind of experience youbwill offer to new players, that established "newbro" corps cannot, and which would retain those new players in the game equal to or better than these existing and developed newbro corps do.

'nuff said.

Well this thread was certainly a waste of time and server space. Best of luck with, whatever it is..
