With Eve becoming more about power bloc coalitions, seems eve is controlled by just 4 entities HBC, CFC, Solar, N3 and the big blue doughnut. CCP not doing anything about this and allowing them to just control everything and anything.
With what happened to the chinese server, im surprised CCP hasnt seriously done something about this. as personally I am tired of playing someone elses sandbox.
If someone wants to live in nullsec, its impossible unless they pay some scamming rip off alliance 5 billion a month for 1 crappy system!
eve has become totally saturated
so many corps and alliances impossible to recruit space is controlled by large power blocs newbies have no chance to ever get the same gameplay or benefits without kissing some vets ass all the moons have been taken and no one will ever get them unless they have 100000000 titans and supers..
eve on the verge of collapse? i would say so unless they make a new universe where you cant take your current chars with you and everyone starts from scratch... oh wait doesnt every other MMO do this to ensure everyone as the same chances and gameplay experience ? but eve... lol... nope... |

It's this mindset that is controlling your game, not some null sec alliance.
Also, working with and learning from more experience players is not the same as "kissing some vets ass" unless, again, your mindset establishes the relationship to operate that way. That's YOUR choice to put yourself in that position, and it absolutely does not work like that in the more successful organizations.
Your entire post points squarely at you as being the source of your own self described issues. To carve a successful niche for yourself in EVE you need to be able to out sell, out produce, out fight,-á out run, or out wit your competitors. If you can do none of the above, your only option is to complain on the forums that somehow you are at a disadvantage using the exact same tool set-áas the rest of the player base. |

Welcome to 2008
The sov mechanics and supercap changes is really the only thing that changed 0.0, NAP cancers have been here for a long time. Molle's dream of ruling all of 0.0 is coming true through the Friendship NIPs between CFC (NC Reloaded) & HBC.
One thing I find really odd is, I havent seen anyone in game from GSF, I mean 50% of local anywhere seems to be TEST, but GSF dont seem to exist :S and it cant be because they are all up north because stats show Deklein is a ghost region with minimum activity.

I seem to remember a conversation like this about 6 years ago when one powerbloc seemed to be close to ruling all of NullSec Eve.
Funny how that turned out.

We're leaving together But still it's farewell And maybe we'll come back, To EVE, who can tell?
I guess there is CCP to blame We're leaving New Eden (and assigning blame) Will things ever be the same again? It's EVE's final meltdown.

EVE is a sand box MMO, if one day one guy with his alliance control all the null sec, CCP should not intervene.
Players make the EVE's life, not CCP which "only" provide tools to live EVE.
You can be against the 4 dominant alliances, but don't call CCP to act against that, it is not the EVE philosophy. Tycho Antus Former Captain in the Federation Navy Chief Executive Officer of Reclamation Technologies |

As someone with actual Asperger's syndrome, I resent this comment and the implication that the halfwitted OP is halfwitted due to the condition. Go learn something about the condition, then come back and fail at being funny again. You don't scare me. I've been to Jita. |

Here is how you do it.
I've been involved in a coupe corp formations, and seen it done well, and seen it done poorly.
1) Decide on the "purpose" of the corp. If you just want to play a couple hours a day doing PVP roams in low sec, or just put up a high sec POS so you and a couple friends can do some research... well, that is one thing. IF, however, you want to participate in the shaping of the EVE political universe, that is something else. For the rest of this post, I'll assume the latter.
2) You've decided you want to be in instigator. Okay. Have no life other than EVE. Okay, maybe a job, but one that allows you to log into EVE and be atleast semi AFK a lot of the time. Plan to play EVE at least 8-10 hours a day, if not more, 7 days a week, for the next few years, if not the rest of your life. It really only takes a couple weeks away and the corp can go to heck.
3) Gather some freinds, that like you, and super trust, that also have no life other than EVE.
4) Decide if you want to be industrial or PVP. In the formation stage it is SUPER hard to be both. PVP will get you wardecs, driving off industrialists. Industry will BORE the heck out of PVPers.
5) Build a set of core assets. If PVP, have mega cash on hand and ways to make more to pay back corp members when they lose ships. If industrial, orca, perfect refine, BPO collection, etc.
6) Start gathering people. Encourage, and even require, some level of group participation. Voice coms is a MUST! Weed out the alts, spies, people not serious. If you are online, then you are in our fleet and you are on voice comms. If PVP, load up the KB with kills and losses whether that is war or roam. Even if you have to create alt corps and let your guys kill your alts without them knowing that is what is going on. If industrial, lots and lots of group mining ops, with big payouts to participants, keep the BPO collection growing, manufacture stuff to sell, etc. Go out of your way to a) keep if fun, b) build group cohesion, c) make everyone feel like they are building toward something and they are an important part of that.
7) A point will come where you are big enough that the critical mass can keep the activity going. At this point, gathring new people becomes a little easier as all your people are telling theri friends how fun and active your corp is. Just keep up the activity!
8) Pick a side in the.. what you call blue donut... then be assimilated. If you are industry, and have a big active group, then rent is no problem. If you are PVP, then you pay for your presence with kills and participation in alliance operations.
EVE is very Feudal. The small corp leaders are the lords, given privilege in return for being able to deliver either goods or people. Dukes are the member alliances, controlling the lords. The King is the coalition leadership, to whom the Dukes report. As a Lord, you are not going to gather a couple hundred people, then wonder into feudal lands and declare yourself king. The existing kings will have a little something to say about that. |

Games with the possibility of free for all violence tend to end up with organised peace.
That's the most successful strategy. Nobody can play 24/7, spending shiploads of money forever. So eventually the more sensible sit down and carve out the cake.
By the way I'm new here, just over 2 months now. EVE isn't really my thing, so I'll probably stop soon.
However, EVE seems to be thriving, and I think it's from how newbies are treated.
The Rookie chat is very helpful, and it seems each newbie gets a five minute chat with a GM who helps with any questions and concerns. I got GM Tegrino, who drowned me in helpful links.
I think that's great for EVE.
Meanwhile I'll continue mining and enjoying thinking about EVE's unique structures and occassionally finding myself suddenly shipless. |
