I've had enough of being a freelancer  I'm in my last 6 weeks of subs and I'd like some serious action please.
4.5 mill skill points, 3 BSs, couple of cruisers, the obligatory indy, more stuff in hangars than you could "spring-clean" in a year  and a deep desire not to mine.
Any offers?

No member is required to mine in Omega Corp. The corp offers wages for those that do... no obligation.
We are primarily military with a large industrial base for in house needs. We outsource most of our mining and members can buy high end ships and gear at cost.
We are not pirates though and hold to a code of honor. We are members of the Stain Alliance and are currently at war with the Curse Alliance who we contend are pirates.
Omega Corp provides all war ships for military ops up to BS's based on rank within the corp. We are over a year old (beta 3) and our teamwork on the battlefield is second to none. If you're interested in a military career then PM Specter or visit oc-public ingame chat.

Hey agrizila,
Id like to invite you to check out Naginata. We are a tight nit group with some rather interesting perspectives and good pvp experience. We are a very active PvP corp and have what many people may refer to as evil tendencies. Our mineral acquisition system is unrivaled in its evilness! There are members with battleships, and a lot with cruisers. We would be glad to have you hang out with us to see how you like it. Contact j0sephine, or myself ingame to get more info.

I can reccomend Naginata, nice PvP corp indeed. You'll get good PvP under the guidance of Othnark, even if he, like me, got some evil tendancies and nasty habbits

I strongly advise you against Naginata, they are pirates, and not very good pirates at that. They will probably respond by saying they only attack people they have been hired to, this is untrue (they tried to kill me, unsuccessfully, and I only had mining lasers on).
Why not join Doped Players, Evolution or Cataclysm Enterprises, all of which hunt pirates (like Naginata) on a daily basis.

I'd recommend Naginata heartily, if only cos they are fun, imaginative battleship gankers... and they have some hot chicks in that corp (and othnark).

Sorry Mastema I haven't actually picked anyone yet due to lack of info. You guys are my first choice though (because of the fact that SPVD, despite being pirates have managed to keep peoples' respect) - but I have to wait until Viceroy shows up to chat with him. He hasn't so far 
I'd like to thank everyone who replied both here and via evemail for their kind offers. To be honest I was stunned about how many I received 
Like I said SPVD is my first choice, but that depends on us all getting on OK and more importantly there being enough corp members on during peak GMT hours.
I was (and still am) seriously tempted by Naginata so I hope if things don't work out with my discussions with SPVD then I can hang out with you guys for a while and see how it goes?

Not at all mate - however dreamworks would be an issue as he made me KOS to his corp because I annoyed him on the forums (I have a -20 standing to Dreamcatchers). You are one of his "mates" so I don't really think it'd work - do you? FWIW all his corp have been polite and courteous when I've seen them - it only seems to be him that has a foul mouth and no idea of how to conduct himself
I hope you can see why me joining you would be a bad idea?

Well I have a problem with alliances that refuse to accept that to new players they are pirates. They demand cash to pass - don't pay then you get hunted. Now I've been around long enough to know the score, but looking at the (excellent) map done by a member of Oracle it's pretty clear you'd have to be vaguely mad (if not insane) to start this game now.
To be quite honest if I'm going to spend my last few weeks doing PvP I'd rather be in a pirate corp - at least they are honest about what they do unlike some alliances.
Edit - Likewise if things don't work out with SI I'd be quite willing to go fight the "pirate menace". I am not however going to get involved in a regional alliance which does not accept that to all intents and purposes they are pirates to small corps and solo players.
At the end of the day it's a game for heavens' sake. Some people (not in this thread so far) need to get a grip and realise that

I'm very glad to hear it. I'll stick you back on my list of possibles then.
NB - I know that sounds so arrogant but it's not meant to be. I am basically looking for a corp that is primarily into PvP, doesn't get viewed by the community as exploiters, and hopefully (although I suspect I'll be disappointed by any corp) doesn't talk too much smack in local.
Edit - oh and I don't mind which side of the "law" it's on.

Well, good luck with your choice and maybe Naginata is right for you...
I just wish they would admit what they are, ie pirates, instead of taking some imaginary moral high ground by saying they are a "warfare corp".

FYI:
Naginata is a PvP corp. That means Naginata blows stuff up. A pirate camps gates and jump in points extorting victims for cash. As far as I know, Naginata has never done any of these things. They also do not smack talk or hurl abuse at people.
Labels like "pirate", "griefer", "PK'er" are simply a matter of perception. As the saying goes, one man's banana is another mans telephone.
Or something like that.

Definition of Pirate:
1.[n] a ship manned by pirates
2.[n] someone who robs at sea or plunders the land from the sea without having a commission from any sovereign nation
3.[n] someone who uses another person's words or ideas as if they were his own
4.[v] take arbitrarily or by force; "The Cubans commandeered the plane and flew it to Miami"
5.[v] copy illegally; of published material
Naginata "blows stuff up" so is a PvP corp not pirates, that is farsical statement. Have m0o and sinister only ever camped gates and jump in points? I think you will find they also attack people in asteroid belts.
Naginata held my ore for ransom after failing to destroy my ship. A pirate extorts, your own words.
Nagainata attacked a miner, me, when I had one gun on, I was also alone. My corp regrouped and attacked them at the asteroid belt, numbers were similar however we held the advantage in terms of ships. They warped out. They called for reinforcements and waited until they had an advantage of 2 to 1 before they attacked. We warped out.
Yeah, join Naginata, attack lone miners and warp out when faced with equal (or just under) numbers. Wait for reinforcements and attack with completely uneven numbers so your enemy just warps away, this is bound to satisfy your PvP needs.
PS. If you kill for no reason and loot bodies you ARE a pirate.

... If am not mistaken about your identity Mr.Gonzo (Aulbres miners?) then i think you are describing the events somewhat inaccurately. :s
Naginata had a group of 5 ships assigned for the task, a battleship, 2 cruisers and 2 frigates iirc. (could be 3 cruisers and 1 frigate instead, 'tis been quite a while ago) You happened to be (unfortunately) alone in the belt, managed to run and proceeded with the smack talk -- nothing unusual. :s We left the battleship and the frigate in the belt in rare case you came armed back for your ore, while rest of the group moved out and on to different work... at which point your corporation decided to enter the belt with 3* battleships and 2 cruisers. Our two ships warped out, called the rest of the group back then the battleship proceeded to keep you somewhat occupied until the other ships (plus the second battleship) arrived... sadly, despite earlier declarations of "having the boogie shoes on" and "wanting a dance" you guys picked exactly that moment to announce "This is getting boring" and proceed to the dock.
... Does it sound more like the things actually occured? (sincere apologies if am confusing you with some other corporation, wouldn't be first time :s
*) might be 2; am fairly sure of the 4 ship types i can recall, the 5th i wouldn't really bet on -- like i said, been too long ago.

Yea, we waited for reinforcements because we had mostly kestrels
And oh, you forgot an episode : when I warped in alone with my scorp and sat in front of your 2 BS and 2 cruisers, you didn't engage me and warped away and logged, pretexting you were bored

Zoreal you were slightly mistaken, we did engage you however you activated your MWD and sped away to over 150km, creating a bookmark i believe.
Anyway yes we had 2 BS Josephine, and I apologise for the smack talk it was just a bit of banter, I tried to keep it within the realms of non-insulting. You did get a larger force together than our 2 BS and 2 Cruisers so are you suprised we didn't stay and fight? It was the same situation you had just been in....
You haven't answered the real reason for this post however.... do you consider yourselves pirates or not? I think you are, however if someone payed you to attack me thats more a case of hired killers....

I warped into a roid which bounced me to an uncomfortable position between 2 giants scordite rocks, so yes, I MWDed to a more comfy location and made a BM to avoid such an unpleasant situation again, and no, it wasn't 150km away (more like 140 )
Anyway dear Mr.Gonzo, I am not going to argue about that anymore, let's just say we had some fun moments, and you managed to save your ass with brio
And to answer your question, we have always been perfectly clear on that matter, but you are of course free to think up new reasons to hate us
Bottom line : we're not here for the results, we're here for the fun.

I don't mind the smack talk Mr.Gonzo, well as long as it's not too f-redundant and yours wasn't so no apology necessary. ;s
Re: being in the same situation... would say the small difference was, we warped out after checking what your force consisted of. Had you done the same i.e. actually waited for the attack and made use of the immunity timer, you'd have noticed our advantage was in fact just two Kestrels, and maybe things would've gone differently... but that's a moot point now.
"You haven't answered the real reason for this post however.... do you consider yourselves pirates or not? I think you are, however if someone payed you to attack me thats more a case of hired killers...."
The latter is more accurate label, i think. The pirates make money mainly straight off their victims...

Fair play to Naginata they represent themselves with a bit of dignity. I did have a good time that night (change from the norm) and Naginata didn't talk trash which I was kinda expecting at the time tbh. I will keep you in mind if I want someone taken out

Sorry to go all offensive on a fellow countryman Shadow, but could I ask what you mean by this statement?
The above statement seems to give the impression that we DreamCatchers Inc. were kicked from the "Predator Alliance". Maybe your memory does not serve you well, but we infact terminated our dealings with your Alliance. We did so for many reasons which all accumulated, and led to us leaving the Predator Alliance, some of which were:
1) The lines of command in the Predator Alliance were non-existant, on hunts anyone and everyone was giving orders on what should be done, which in DCincs eyes led to unnecessary losses of ships in combat on multiple occasions.
2) As a strategic military alliance, there was a clear need to keep our operations out of view of our enemies. This simple procedure was not adhered to. Due to other members of the Predator Alliance inviting other corps and even lone players into the secure chat-rooms of the Alliance. This led to a compromise of security on several of the Predator Alliances ops due to a leekage of information. Several ships were lost again as a result.
DreamCatchers Inc's senior staff tried to bring several protocols to the table so that these above examples would not occur again. These recommendations, which I will not go into here, were approved, but senior Alliance members (the CEOs of the member corps), did not show an immediate motivation to fix these problems. As a result DREAMWORKS and the directors of DCinc decided that we would pull out of the Alliance, prefering to go it alone, rather than stay in an Alliance that would not pay attention to the fatal flaws which were leading to the death of pilots.
DCinc left the Predator Alliance on good terms. I don't know why you now need to slander us ShadowThrone. Is the need for Agrizla as a new recruit that important?

Dreamworks = DreamCatchers Inc.
Centuri = DreamCatchers Inc.
DreamCatchers Inc. is a pvp corp, we will pvp ingame or with words on these forums as needed. Just as I back up all my fellow corpmates ingame, I will back them up here. If one of our members is slandered without any due need, we will consider that an attack on us all. Dreamworks is a gentleman ingame, to those that know him. I do not know what prompted ShadowThrones negative response. I can assure you this is not a consensus of the people who trully know Dreamworks.
TEAMWORK is a thing you will learn about when you join a pvp corp my friend.
