Case in point.

Errr what?

players DO NOT PROVIDE CONTENT.

You're starting to sound jealous now. Instead of being incredibly undesirable by way of pissiness on a thread that was pissiness-free until you showed up, maybe try making some friends?

Projection much?

HAH!! Oh my goodness the irony is indeed strong with you, isn't it.

I don't know why you're so angry, who or what you're angry at, and I don't care. It's your problem, not mine, but even so, I'm not without sympathy for your ailment. Can I suggest eating some bacon? Bacon solves everything.

I'm muslim.

Projection much?

It's okay, nobody's perfect. Bacon will probably solve that too.

you do realise outside of the echo chamber of the "get likes" thread you actually need to articulate things rather than paw at the keys

I love Tim Hortons coffee

Large Regular or Double Double?

Large Regular or Double Double?

Until one of them awoxes you.

In another MMO, I would make a "QotD" (Question of the Day) simply to fascilitate community discussion on a topic that might interest them.

....

Now that we have that preface out of the way, let's get on with today's question:

What is the biggest thing you can do to increase loyalty amongst the corporate ranks?

When my fellows are out on a roam, we can scoff at everyone else for drinking Starbucks or McDonalds McCafe.
These are my initial thoughts on the matter. What do you think is the most important thing to create loyalty?

In another MMO, I would make a "QotD" (Question of the Day) simply to fascilitate community discussion on a topic that might interest them. Unfortunately, sometimes people would misconstrue my intent and the thread would burn out in a fireball of trolling. I think I have learned my lessons from that experience, and with the fine guidance of ISD, I think we can avoid these pitfalls.

What is the biggest thing you can do to increase loyalty amongst the corporate ranks?

From my initial review of EVE, it seems that high loyalty corporations choose their recruits very carefully. They want to make sure they share a bond...a brotherhood of sorts...to create this conception of "US vs ALL OF THEM".

Brilliant, really. When I set up my own corporation, I might consider doing something similar. For example, I love Tim Hortons coffee. I don't know if I would trust someone else that didn't share my tastes, so I don't think I would invite them into my corporation unless they posted on a Tim Hortons fan site.

When the men are punished before their loyalty is secured, they will be rebellious and disobedient. If disobedient and rebellious, it is difficult to deploy them. When the loyalty of the men is secured, but punishments are not enforced, such troops cannot be used either. Thus, the general must be able to instruct his troops with civility and humanity and unite them with rigorous training and discipline so as to secure victories in battles. When orders are regularly enforce and used to train the soldiers, they will be obedient. When orders are not regularly enforced nor used to train the soldiers, they will not be obedient. When orders are regularly enforced, it is because of the mutual trust and confidence between the commander and his men.
