Unlike my predecessor I wish to provide customer service to those who I assist in negotiating contracts with. I will attempt to do a significantly better job than the last "face" of F-OFF, as he was so popularly called.
Also I will not hesitate to report any off topic posts, flames, or other wise non-informative posting in my thread as I do not want this to be as derailed as the last F-OFF Mercenary thread. You may feel free to post what ever review you have had with this corp, good or bad, as that is what you are entitled to do.
Thank you for your understanding and please give me some elbow room as I am new at this.
I look forward to working with you and hope you are willing to give me a fair chance as the new contract representative.

Sounds like you're a bit of a nark and can't handle the forums to be honest, perhaps you are not suited to this role (not a troll, some advice)
I may have to lower my rating for F-OFF in the other thread due to the new contract managers combat record. Someone with that amount of kills cannot possibly have the experience necessary to organise contracts for a mercenary corporation. (also not a troll, advice).
While I am not sure how DamienEx handled contracts, I'm sure he did a much better job than someone with your (lack of) experience will do. All the same, good luck to you.

I am a stickler for forum stuff, what can I say. However I will address your concerns since you have voiced them in a non-flaming manner.
My combat record might be small, but I am involved in many PVP engagements, yes, as a buzzard pilot. Aside from flying cap ships, that is what I do best. There seems to be little use for cap ships in high sec merc work ergo I fly recon.
I welcome any more questions or comments from you as you lack the destructive nature I have seen all over these forums. Hopefully I can change your views and grade on F-OFF with a more first hand experience than killboard stats and second hand reviews.

We know, but right now we are dealing with another issue, which is the mods effectively killing the ability for people to make an informed decision about the merc corp they are hiring.

Lol mah post got deleted. Good to know who they prey on, though. I always thought preying on miners was more of a pirate play time activity then a merc corp.

Worst contract ever.
Glad we finally fired the old guy as our contract guy. About time. Now if we can only get him to stop taking faction fitted ships into a mob by himself...
I just want to shoot stuff.

hi, and welcome.
I'm not at home - so can't get in game atm. Is Damien still part of the corp?
Are you looking to correct previous mistakes, or just avoid making mistakes in the future?
Are you an alt of his?
These are all genuine questions, although I feel it rather odd that we can't bump your thread with a little genuine banter.

ok serious questions.. hmm ok i can do that!
what is YOUR stance on charging clients for your insurance?
what is YOUR stance on if clients give you wrong intel? instead of working the contract will you just drop it like was done previously?
why has your contract efficiency been so abysmal?/why are there no new contracts dispite your previous (or alts) claim that you were still recieving contracts?
how many active members do you truely have? your killboard shows only about 5 that are truely active
why would you refund a client part of his isk because of your failure, but not all of it? the old claim is because he was not liked, but if your corp truely did not perform (and you acknowledged it from the partial reinbursement), what will make a client trust you in the future? you could just fail all your contracts and give partial reinbursements, pretty bad for business to have something like that in your past.
why does your corp allow damienex to single handidly make your target profit from the war? (he dies, looses 500+m, and you guys kill like 5 frigates). people like that would be purged from any respectable merc corp. may aswell bring siigarii in with you too, at least he puts the expensive mods on something more useful than a solo cerberus.
whats your opinion of repo?
what merc corp do you want to use as an example of how to be successful?
whos your favorite f-off troll?
how the hell did you get me to post seriously?

Hello and thanks.
Damien is still part of the corp, but basically he has been removed from the Merc Contact position and asked not to post in the Merc thread. While a little bit isk-ineffective and an arse he is still a valued member of the corp and will continue with recruitment rather than contracts.
Since I have recently been put into this position I am mainly going to focus on avoiding previous mistakes and repair what I am able to. While I can see that there was much arguing about what happened previously, I am not in a position to comment on previous contract or repair damages from them.
I can assure you I am not an alt. This is my main account. As a cap pilot I am not seen on many kills in empire, but I have other uses. Someone has to be good at probing things out whether it be a target or a WH.
Also, there is some banter that is reasonable and things that are just out right destructive. I dont mind the little banter back and fourth but I really dont see the point in trolling, flaming, or completely off topic post. Needless to say, i might be an idealist when it comes to this, but hopefully other will respect my decisions and provide constructive criticism or positive comments in regards to their feelings of F-OFF or my personal methods.
Hopefully that satisfies your curiosity.

Edited by: Simvastatin Montelukast on 07/12/2009 20:49:11 Here is a question that I have often wondered, but never asked in a merc "hire me" thread.
With all these other corps flaming/smacking, why don't you go after them? Honestly it would be the best way to sort out which of you guys is best.
And while I understand there are logistic problems involved (some merc in high sec, others low, different regions etc.) Some of you guys have overlap. When one of them smacks you in your forum, take them out.
Just a thought. Otherwise nice post, wish you the best.

Originally by: Roastedpot ok serious questions.. hmm ok i can do that!
what is YOUR stance on charging clients for your insurance?
Depending on the nature of the contract, I feel that it can be expected in cases where we are getting paid to lose ships. I sight the example of the Mostly Harmless contract. Given we were going to be judged on the response time of the MH fleet, and not the ability for us to out blob them, we decided to keep the insurance payout low, that we would use Battlecruisers since the insurance cost is low. they have enough firepower to effectively have a sizable gang formed against them, and that is what happened (so I gather from our loss mails).
However, in a typical war dec, I don not feel that insurance should be a top priority. It seems reasonable to put the offer on the table, asking for 10 or 20% of total ship damages (excluding Damien faction mods), but not making it required. If it is a contract where there are high losses expected, it seems more reasonable to charge insurance while as low risk targets it seems pointless.
Quote: what is YOUR stance on if clients give you wrong intel? instead of working the contract will you just drop it like was done previously?
To me this seems to be a tricky question. If wrong intel constitutes "hi they are in ssytem X, Y and Z" but we find them in systems a, b, and C in the same region, that seems reasonable enough to work around. Intel such as "this is an empire corp in system X" and we come to find that the whole corp has gone to live in worm hole space, if the client cant provide a means into the worm hole and we spend time trying to find the worm hole, i would say that we give their isk back and call it quits.
I will not drop a contract because we can not find the systems that the characters exist in, if it is in real space. But not being able to access a target because they are in a worm hole that we have no way of finding, then I do not feel it is unreasonable to return the isk and call it quits.
Quote: why has your contract efficiency been so abysmal?/why are there no new contracts dispite your previous (or alts) claim that you were still recieving contracts?
You can thank Damien for that. As you can see, faction fitted ships (1.7 bil isk cerberus, Shadow serpentis webs on a Huginn) and fighting against the odds (soloing 10 guys in a curse) will result in losses of unreasonable proportion. While some contracts we have killed 20+ characters, one loss can throw the whole balance off if the mods on the ship cost more than the ship itself.
I do not know why no new contacts have been posted or why claims were made that there were contracts posted. All i can say is that hopefully a new rep will take care of that problem.

because either a) they cant back it up and know it b) awknowledge it is a hazard of the work place (which it is) c) most of the people saying stuff about them have (in the past threads) been previous employers, or have been c&p regulars or ex-mercs who have seen all of this song and dance before c.1) and of the people who fall into c, most are not in a corp that is easily decable, like my one man corp of sheer-lazyness-and-inactivity
oh and the obligatory anti-f-off reason, d) they cant stick to contracts inwhich they are paid let alone vendetta wars without getting emo and quiting the war
