Tried to read as many of the posts as I could... just wanted to chim in some of my thoughts.
TL;DR: NOL is great, join us.
To those of you who believe tanking your Indy is a waste of time or silly: As a solo ganker if you have a tank, I'm looking for another target... unless the numbers are only 1-2 seconds above Concord response time, then I'll give it a shot. In fleets tanked Indys are usually chosen as targets last; unless of course we have the dps/damage requirements. However, it would be more beneficial to take out 2 untanked targets sitting next to each other rather than 1 and we often split our numbers to do just that.
To those of you would still for whatever reason believe that the New Order is small, or weak, or wont last long:http://code.eve-kill.net/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=16802696 ...The point isn't the kill, but rather the fleet was formed on a whim. Yes, that is an anti-tanked Orca.. shameful really.
To those of you who believe the Permit system is a scam, or extortion, or you just don't like it: At first I wasn't sure what to think about the 10 million ISK mining permit. At first I too thought it was a scam. However, we actually don't attack people who have permits and they are actually set to blue. If you are not AFK and get ganked by a member of the New Order, there is a chance your ship will be replaced. I recently replaced a 46m ISK Retriever because of a mistake I made in the mail explaining NOL policy (Not going to include KM for permit holders privacy, if you really want to know I'll have to ask him first). As far as extortion is concerned... it's 10 million ISK. You make that in what half an hour-1 hour solo mining and a lot less if group/support mining. Since attacking permit holders is not allowed and whenever someone cries "extortion" to me you're just reaching for anything in an attempt to make us look bad. Now, I could understand if it were 50 million ISK per permit, then you would have an argument.
When I created this character I had played Eve on and off for about a year and a half. The characters I started this great game off with I don't play anymore; I don't remember their names. This is my main. I eventually was on the verge of quitting, heard that Hulkageddon was active again and decided to participate. Then I realized I could actually make a profit from suicide ganking. And so the career began. When I first heard about NOL I remember thinking to myself, "great they're going to cut into my profits." I played this game mostly solo and hated it. Eventually talked to someone affiliated with the New Order and got into their channel. Had the chance to run fleets with them. Had a great time and the rest is history.
