With permission from one of the lovely WGOE moderators I included a small note for female EVE players that are looking for a corporation that has other female gamers they can talk to in the event that they prefer to be in a corporation with mixed genders.

Lots of updates.
I have added a new section for community channels. These channels are not intended for recruiting, but my hopes are that they will make it easier for players to find people with ties to communities they would wish to be a part of.
However, there are a lot of channels out there, thus any suggestions on what channels should be on the list would be much appreciated.
A small note regarding Reddit has now also been added.

This guide is as comprehensive as it is long. OP covers pretty much everything from API's to doing research. Do your research
+1 to this post, an asset to new players.
Just one personal tip I'll add:
Take the time to read the blurbs or talk to CEO/recruiters as part of the process. Try to get them to reveal what their vision is for the future of the corporation. If they seem passionate and what they say inspires you, go with your instincts!
Good luck! |

You should never assume that the information accessible via the API is going to be treated as secret. Expect that the information gleaned through the API is going to appear on the forums within about five seconds of you handing over the API keys. Is any of that information going to damage your reputation, cause difficulties with friends, expose a secret cyno alt, or otherwise cause difficulty? If so, simply don't hand over the API keys.
Interesting, handing over an API, for your new corp. to splash over the forums, sounds to me like that corp. lacks any kind of professionalism.
Would you really want to be in a corp. like that? |

Great thread.
Just a note on other alliance members offering to haul your stuff for you. You might want to note that for players joining corps in sovereign null sec this is the only way you may be able to get stuff to your new corps home system (as third parties won't have docking rights and a new player won't have access to their own jump freighter yet).
In either case, it's probably best to travel to your new home system in null and then buy ships there until you get a feel for your new corp. Most major alliances have doctrine and other ships available on contract in null. You can then try and move your stuff out to null sec at a later date if you need to. |

I'm still so new to the game that this is my first forum post. Very nicely written, comprehensive and covers everything I've wondered as well as a few things I'm too new to have considered. Truly one of the best and most helpful posts I've read thus far. Big thank you to NC85 and all the contributors. |

Should I join a corporation
The following is my response to an EVE mail regarding whether or not a player should join a corporation. My own opinion only.
Hey there!
Your question is not an easy one to answer, and i will admit that i have been spending the last hour or so sitting mulling it over in my head trying to give you the most honest answer i can.
A couple of years ago during Fanfest CCP had a big presentation on new players and they found that a lot of the new players that left did so without ever joining a corporation and it was their wish to encourage more new players to try out the "real" EVE. And, in one way, i largely agree with them. Being in a corporation in EVE, which often leads to much stronger ties to your fellow corp members then you would in a classic guild or clan in another game, is an amazing experience IF you manage to find the right group of people. As im sure you have found out by now thats the difficult part and no amount of guides or tips will be the magic solution so many people wish for.
Some people just dont do well in EVE on their own. Maybe because they are playing EVE for the social aspect, maybe because they need/want to feel like they are a part of something. Or maybe because they feel the draw of being in the spotlight (even if they are sharing it with hundreds, if not thousands of other pilots in the alliance or coalition). Maybe because in such a deep and complex game like EVE the thought of being alone is just... too much. Whatever the reason is, some people wont feel happy or even content unless they can fly under a flag and celebrate victories (in and out of game) and grieve over losses with their friends, and sometime the loss of a friend as your fellow pilots passes away.
However, just because i mainly agree with CCP regarding getting new players into a corporation as soon as possible it does not mean that everyone SHOULD join a corporation. The people can could pull off being happy, and successful on their own is a very small % of the player base. On top of my head i can only think about two people that has managed to pull this off, and their names are Chribba and Innominate Nightmare. The latter being long gone. In both those examples the players in questions have some extraordinary accomplishments that helped making their life style possible (and affordable).
Occasionally you will see people on the forums, in the CEO channel, in Jita local or wherever that will preach about the joys of being on their own, and how well it has worked out for them after having done it for X amount of years. But, how many players would know who they are, or care about what they have archived, because in the grand scheme of things they wont have made much of a difference. And that is supposed to be one of the big draws with EVE, that YOU as a player can make a difference and make history.
But again, supposed to. And thats what a lot of people, including me, forget over and over and over again. Just because something is advertised a certain way, and us old, cranky, stubborn people cant accept the fact that things are changing we should not discourage or prevent new players like your self to "break the norm" and do something that would make most old time players and CCP members that deal with new players cry and cringe in a corner.
However, its not our right, or place, to dictate that these people are not happy.
Sure i can point out all the things that you cant do as a solo player, and guess what, i would be doing it out of habit, not because its actually true! People like Chribba basically went out there and proved to the whole universe that "Hah! I dont need a 2000 man alliance to have my own capital ship fleet!", or "Pfff, i feel like creating an alliance so im going to do it even if I'm the only person in it!". Innominate Nightmare showed the universe that a brand new player, in a rookie ship could travel the universe and witness events like the first Titan coming out of production, having conversations with the most prominent EVE players in history, and being invited to events and witnessing fights that most "ordinary" EVE players could just dream off.
So, is it necessary to join a corporation to enjoy EVE? Reluctantly i will have to say no. But I think the average EVE player would miss out on a lot of opportunities if they decided to not at least give it a chance.

With the Citadel expansion, I expect CCP will see a decent uptick in new/re-activated accounts. I'm sure this thread will help those that either find it on their own or are directed here by helpful capsuleers. Thanks for keeping this updated, NC.

My opinion is that all new players should join a Player Corp, rather than stick in their starter Corp
I believe in helping new players learn some basics about Eve, both skillwise and financial
Any advice I give is freely given, though tempered by my opinions
Anyone who joins my Corp is always free to leave if they wish, and find their niche elsewhere, but I will always be available for advice
(this character may not be as old, but I have been playing Eve nonstop since March 2004) |
