Annir Janau Imperial Shipment Amarr Empire 0	Posted - 2016.09.24 14:07:44 - [91] - Quote Thanks for this. I know its dynamic, subjective and myriad corps exist but... Is there a thread which overviews some of the more popular corps or types of corps in eve? Everything from general mentality, career path options (or lack thereof), commonalities and so forth. One really cant tell by corps descriptions. This would be a great starting point for new players rather than everyone doing ground up research; share the wisdom pls. I'm about 7m sp in, doing solo w-hole explo since inception and getting somewhat bored . I'd avoided corps for various speculations and alas, I was justified. I've joined and left two in one week. Id like to explore the social side of eve, but when I reiterate even before joining I'm an amarr w pure explo skills interested in scout / covops, then some d-bag throws a caldari pew pew frig at me w no explanations, Im feeling that notsomuch. At this point Im considering taking a month training break then coming back and randomly stealth bombing ppl.

As far as I know there is no official list like what you are describing but I know EVE university at least used to have a forum where certain corporations would advertise. Without knowing the rules it's possible EVE university does some sort of screening of the corporations they allow to advertise, so that might be worth looking into. Another suggestion is look for a corporation that will let you just hang out and roam with them for a week or two before joining. Even if it's just hanging out on ts or whatever it will help give you a better (and more realistic) picture of how things are without the recruiter putting a..positive spin on potential bad sides of the corporation Good luck and don't give up! When you find the right one you won't regret it!

Corporate Capsuleer Wormhole Hitchhikers 2	Posted - 2016.09.28 08:55:47 - [93] - Quote How do you guys cope with full API? I found few corps that would be 100% for me, but that zero privacy... I cant, I just cant. Mabye I read too much articles read on the internet, about ppl fighting for privacy all day long, made me have a mental barrier so deep that I cant overcome. Is a big nope for me

Mabye I read too much articles read on the internet, about ppl fighting for privacy all day long, made me have a mental barrier so deep that I cant overcome. Is a big nope for me I think this varies a lot from person to person. Personally I never asked for a full API key and there is no way I would give it to someone else. I wonder if many (especially younger) corporations and recruiters have just read to many horror stories and somehow are convinced the API key is a 100% sure way to avoid trouble. I do still think it's a good sign that they ask for some information and a limited API key of course. If for nothing else it will discourage lazy and/or bad spies/corp thieves that don't know how to hide the relevant information. Phoibe Enterprises The Eve Reader - Audio Recordings of Eve Chronicles

Decided to go solo for the moment-- drawbacks of being randomly assassinated by war deccers and full api for little benefit dont add up right now. Most people even in corps play solo. Limited api yeah maybe, still think it's somewhat pointless. As noted, one would have to be extremely lazy and stupid to have a spy on the same account and give full api. Are those the people clever/ambitious enough to take down your corp?

I would say that highly depends on the corp. But I would also think that if someone refuses to let anyone see such a basic thing as a limited API key chances are they would be very difficult to deal with if something actually important was needed (like API information for forum access or making sure they have the needed skills for various activities as examples).

Marrcus Edus Smithion Ministry of War Amarr Empire 1	Posted - 2016.12.01 13:55:22 - [97] - Quote Hi all, I'm new here and just want to say that eve is the game i've been waiting all my life to play (as a kid I grew up playing and loving damocles and elite)....and thankyou CCP because i'm tight and if you hadn't made it free i might never have started playing :) After having had the experience i'll gladly subscribe now though. Anyway, i've finished the agent missions and have moved onto the SOE story arc. I can see missions getting tiresome though so am thinking of joining a corp. The thing is i only really have maybe 10 hours a week most to play the game (i'm advancing in years and have a family etc....) and can also only really play at work when i'm skiving ! This also means that mic. use is out of the question ! I would imagine this probably rules me out of the more serious corps. I need something really laid back and quite open to newcomers as i'm not only new to eve, but also to MOM more generally. I'm kind of interested in everything but definitely want to learn and try out some pvp. I'm not really interested in eveuni as they sound a little bit up their own backsides :) I'm also quite happy figuring stuff out for myself. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
NightCrawler 85 Phoibe Enterprises 1838	Posted - 2016.12.01 18:51:51 - [98] - Quote RVB is the first one that comes to mind. They usually go in frigs and cruisers, almost always something going on and while they don't advertise them selves as a teaching organization as long as you are polite there are many people there willing to assist you. The no mic can make things harder but often being able to listen is the key unless your planning to become a FC. For time constraints, don't worry as this is pretty common as many eve players are older and have to try to juggle real life,family, work and spaceships as well Just be aware of those that say there is no requirement on time online but you have to participate in X number of fleets or get so and so many kills every month. Good luck and welcome to EVE! Phoibe Enterprises The Eve Reader - Audio Recordings of Eve Chronicles
Marrcus Edus Smithion Ministry of War Amarr Empire 1	Posted - 2016.12.02 05:47:52 - [99] - Quote Thanks a lot ! Yes most signs are pointing in the RVB direction. I'll get through some of these missions and give it a bash. It doesn't suprise me that there are many older players here......Eve seems like a perfect escape from family/work.....for a little bit at least :)
Rigel Eridani SQUIDS. 1	Posted - 2016.12.15 14:20:33 - [100] - Quote EVE Hunt is also a very useful website in terms of finding which PVP corps are best. http://eve-hunt.net/ Since it uses killmails, it can show what timezone (USTZ, EUTZ etc) a corp has most kills in (and by this indicate when it's most active). It can show you what ships they mostly use, and it can also show you what a typical average size fleet is (which is probably much more accurate for smaller corps). So comparing a lowsec corp, http://eve-hunt.net/hunt/Caldari%20Colonial%20Defense%20Ministry - This one shows it's mostly USTZ, uses more cruisers than the one below. http://eve-hunt.net/hunt/SQUIDS@2E - This one shows more EUTZ, and appears to focus on using T1 frigates much more and smaller fleets. Then look at and compare two different nullsec corporations. Many differences in playstyle. http://eve-hunt.net/hunt/KarmaFleet http://eve-hunt.net/hunt/Brave%20Newbies%20Inc@2E

NightCrawler 85 Phoibe Enterprises 1848	Posted - 2017.01.28 08:16:30 - [101] - Quote I know I need to update this thread, in the mean time please add any new advice you can think of and I will hopefully get it added soon Sorry for the delay!
