Just wondering if you take idea requests. If you do I got one for you.
The data you have has the Current Corp and Corp history for a character. Say your a member of a corp for a long time and you take a break. you come back everyone is gone, players are blown to the wind. What I was thinking was a "where are they now" kinda sorting. You already have the page for corp former members. What would be great on that page is not just their name but a column for there current Corp.
Dotlan does this great for former corps in an Alliance see link below. They list the former Corps but list there current alliance. Now of course you can click on each name and see where they are so the data is there but it would be simpler. Also a alliance column might be good. So each ex-member of a Corp you can see they are in CorpA & AllianceG now. Just an Idea, Fly Safe

The api function is pretty annoying.

If you're using it, that means you're reading in player names for a corp. Corps with over 200 members known will have 10+ pages. On the 10th page request it triggers your "hammering a website isn't very nice ya know.... please wait 30 seconds" message.

I appreciate the desire to prevent needless scraping of your website, but the measure you've employed is a little too simple and is prone to trigger during legitimate use.

And ppl could definitely use a darker theme of the site.

Thanks for great service.
I need api to query :
Corporation, Alliance,Sec. Status
by Character ID or Name.

Now i an forced to parse webpage to determine alliance of player specified.

Use CCPs API for that:

No API key supplied:

corporationID>553239300

Hi Squizz.

When you search for a character, if the character has recently changed corp does that queue a refresh for the character from the EVSCO api proxy? And if it does, how long does it typically take before the refresh occurs?

And thanks for developing such a great intel service!

Can you please advise what the "delta" information refers to on evewho?

First off evewho is dope...

but one thing confuses me:

"How do you determine the ranking for Pirate and Carebear Corporations?
The security status of every pilot in the corporation is averaged and then multiplied by the log of the number of pilots of the corporation.
corp_security_level = avg(sec_status) * log(member_count)" - quoted from the FAQs


sooo you add the sec statuses up and divide by the number of pilots in corp, then multiply that by the number of pilots in corp?

those two things cancel each other out and you just end up with the total sum of all the sec statuses in corp. unless the "log" is something different.

unless the "log" is something different.

Have you considered adding an API for pilots which returns the pilot's corp history?

tbh, this has never even occurred to me! if I have time over break I will add that in

Awesome tool, I was wondering if I just forgot how to find this, if it was removed or if it was a feature that never existed.

I thought you could search all corps by size from biggest to smallest in one list. I see the top 10, both in alliance and out, but I can't seem to find a way to find corps past those top ten.


Glad your looking for new hosting, this has been an invaluable resource for recruitment and such.

Is the api supposed to disseminate older information than what is on the evewho site? I am getting a corp listing of four members on your site but through the api, I'm getting one.

EveWho has never had the feature to search all corporations by size. I've put some thought into it and it would be just too unwieldy to implement. There are 229k corporations in EveWho's database, imagine scrolling through that list?

The new host is OVH where they have some crazy awesome deals on dedicated servers. Check them out if you're ever looking!

Would you consider top 100 or something along those lines by any chance?

To help prevent folks from scraping EveWho and causing high loads a policy is in place that allows 10 requests within a 30 second time period. Anything more than this and you'll be shown an error page and forced to wait. We don't mind folks seeking more information, which is why an API is available.
