I wouldn't mind providing a little information for the rookies about how to fly tackle, interceptors and such
like. 1: How to tackle without dieing really really fast 2: how to hold tackle long enough for your friends to arrive, and not die really really fast 3: and maybe even how to not die really really fast when your in a small ship :D Supercap nerf - change ewar immunity https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=194759 Module activation delay! https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=1180934 |

For this to work you have to inform those "new players" such thing will take place, don't think many of them read devblogs. |

My firs few days in EVE a joined such a session of an Alliance named Rookie Empire. It was hell of a blast, learned lot of things. Being 3 days old i ventured with them into 0.0. The thrill i had, omg was fantastic. I succeeded to get back n highsec by myself following some basic tips they gave me about warping to planets near gates first, scanning etc. It was the longest hour of my life and the longest 20 jumps ever :DDD BALEX is recruiting -----> tinyurl.com/oscmmlv |

If you find a way to notify them about this event, good job! Even better if they attend! Keep up the good work! |

As much as I love these kinds of things. 17:00 UTC is horribly early for the US folks. I am still at work at that time . While I don't expect CCP To be up that late.
A good US TZ Session would be great. Could someone set something like this up too?
(Also, is there a way to search for corps with Timezones that fit Eastern US... I have to search twice: once only till 8pm my time and second 00:00 -> till I fall asleep time)
While I am an "Experienced" (as in I've been blown up more times than I care to recall) tackler. There's still things that I learn every day, especially after returning from a break.

Probably depends on if you're just cracking jokes or trying to ruin the event :). And a bunch of other factors. CCP Guard | EVE Community Developer |-á@ccp_guard |

If people are being disruptive in the chat channels, we will kick them from the channel. Other disruptive behavior will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis and it's really hard to give a blanket response that will cover all possibilities. In almost all cases we will warn players in-game that they are being disruptive and give them a chance to stop before we move on to having the GMs get involved.

We definitely want to do this. Right now we don't have the resources to do so, but if they prove to be popular we'll find a way to do things at a time that's better for our very large US following. This is part of the reason we are recording all the sessions and will be holding all our organized activities on weekends.

Sounds good to me! Will these events eventually graduate into real lowsec roams or life fire exercises?
May I suggest the use of spawning rookie-pirate NPCs as demonstration targets for new players to test their mettle?
CCP and GMs have a lot more power to manipulate the game world to demonstrate various aspects and situations than player instructors do. :) Ch+½j+ì Katrina Oniseki ~ (RDC) Chief Operations Officer ~ [I-RED] Director of Public Relations |

Certainly! Our PVP Fleet on the 16th will be a live fire exercise with roaming. Can't reveal where we're going, but traveling into low sec or 0.0 is certainly a possibility.
And yes, part of the reason we're running these is because our devhax mean we can do things like spawn NPCs when needed. EVE Online/DUST 514 Community Representative GÇ+ EVE Illuminati GÇ+ Fiction Adept

First, let me start by completely seriously saying this is a very nice idea and I support it.
However let me point out the irony here:
Out of game, high stakes, high profile raffles for out of game prizes like trips to Iceland - we'll contract this out to an in game entity with questionable player trust even though they don't even run out of game raffles/lotteries.
In game, otherwise low risk PR wise PvP training exercises, held completely in game - we'll ignore the multitude of well trusted entities that already do this sort of thing.
Just a little backward no? |

If you're seriously worried about people griefing the training sessions why not jump all the participants over to Jove space? Then jump back for the roams.
Also, +1 to a message an hour beforehand. If I were you, I'd send out mails to everyone (possibly e-mails as well), at least one message and spamming the help channels. The more exposure you get, the better. |

Why not help groups like eve uni and agony do this they have been doing a long time anyway and probably know the mechanics better than most devs they are also practiced at dealing with large classes? |

Part of what we are looking to do is to invite guests from the likes of EVE Uni, Agony, RvB and others to come along and be guest lecturers and instructors. Down the line we would like to see this seminar program incorporated into a completely player driven venture. That is the ideal goal.
