You regularly stroll down and as a matter of routine to an area of null sec, to shoot at players, where they follow the belief of independance to infuriating levels.

I mean that you harp on about independance as though it can only exist in a NPC corp in high sec.

Basically make highsec safer...

specifically make joining or recruiting into the corps riskless.

Now to make a switch that turns off corp theft? A "social only" corp where you can't put assets into a stealable place?

The issue here is CCP has data that shows that players who never join a player corp tend to leave the game sooner than those players who do join. So the issue is player retention; ways to get those players more involved with the game, so they hang around longer.

You might want to tell that to certain other posters who've called those of us who choose to stay in NPC corps cowards, risk averse, immature, not hardcore enough, petty facists, etc.

*the facts*

What you won't get not being reliably involved is responsibilities, but then it doesn't look like you want them, and being as naive as you are, that it would be wise to give them to you.

In my corp if you're not here you miss on the kills, but no one would even think of holding it against you...

Hello all, I am a new player and thought I would leave some feedback about my time so far in a npc corp.

If you are ready to become content for vets, join some accepting FW PvP corp, or fly those spy-farmed NPSI fleets. Both will give you a great sample how many stomps, losses and misery will await you on your way over SP wall in the next 5-6 years. Then you can finally PvP. Maybe. If SP wall doesn't grow faster than you would.

Yeah, focusing on one hull/weapon system can make you perfect with it around 25 million SP, which is around 1.5 - 2 years depending on your implants. Add a few million if it's a cruiser system and about 10 million more if it's a battleship system.

Then see bittervets undocking only in fits which reliably beat the crap out of your system of choice, and continue this miserable existence of being content for everyone over SP wall, till you leap the rest of SP wall.

Mine is a corp for training newbies

As in "OMG how dare you play differently and not in my favor". Which is pretty much the thread's one-liner.

Everyone keeps equating the problem as the NPC corp.

Speaking from own experience; As much as I love EVE online I play it very casually. I feel like many corps would just dislike player who hardly is online or is offline for week or two every month. But I feel to add that not all players who sit in NPC corp might be in there just because War Decs.

"nullsec"? Don't make me laugh. Wardecs or no wardecs, highsec is exceedingly safe.

The skill of the person doing the hunting really isn't all that relevant.

Bad or good, everyone shows up in local.

Yeah this even more. It would require a lot of advanced planning and preparation to try the warp to target, join Corp approach.

The mechanics make it extremely difficult.

The equivalent of saying nullsec is easy because two parties can shoot each other freely.

Easy peasy!
