Hi all.
Privateers corporation is a corp set up to provide all EvE Online members with a way of accessing free and instant war declarations against multiple alliances.
Currently we are limited to 3 declarations against 3 alliances by CCP's rather lame alliance protectionism.
However, in a few weeks Privateers will be creating its very own alliance and will be able to offer much more then 3 simultaneous war declarations.
I am envisioning the possibility of declaring up to 10 simultaneous wars against alliances and creating an experience of total and complete anarchy in empire for those brave enough or stupid enough to join up.
Correctly chosen, this would be a small cost of only 500 to 1 billion isk per week.
I would like to get an idea whether corporations would be interested in joining this alliance on a temporary basis to access some of this content?
If you are a CEO and think that you and your corporation might like a tour of duty please post here and indicate so. Also any comments or ideas or problems that you can see with my idea, I would also be glad to hear about.
The alliance would operate exactly as the corporation does, individual members could join Privateers for a tour or entire corporations could join the alliance for a period of time they decide to access the content.
Thanks

Oh also. Perhaps you might think this is in the wrong forum but its not really about alliances as such but rather more about pirating them.

So basically what you offer is:
- Join us!
- Pay a fee!
- Get loads of wartargets!
I like it...lol :D
Nah no fee required. Voluntary donations are welcome but not expected.

If I wanted to kill nubs and lose T2 ships, I'd attack ISS.
Not sure about those losses you mentioned in your previous post, are they factual?. Regardless why would you lose T2 ships to ISS when you refer to them as nubs? Im confused.
On a related note, we did just attack ISS.. again

I peeked! Thats pretty good going for a pushover corp full of newbs.. jk 
However the argument derails the thread since as was already mentioned, Privateers is a shell of a corp, that only acts as a place for individual pilots to access the war decs.
So once the alliance is created, the success or failure of a corp will be dependant entirely on the operations of that corp since no alliance rules or organization will exist. The alliance will simply be a shell which you connect to, to access the free war declarations.
Hope that makes sense.

An interesting question that came up.
I'd like to know where Infinity gets her money. If donations are completely voluntary she must be funding this one of 4 ways:
1) Has her own money-making machine
2) Has a wealthy backer
3) Sells GTC
4) Buys isk off ebay.
5) The voluntary donations are so large that it allows her to fund the current situation (3 decs) and go up even further.
In any of these cases, she's got to be serious about turning over 500M-1B for a situation where pilots keep their earnings and may donate if they choose.
So Infinity, which is it? How do you get the money to fund alliance wardecs? Your idea is feasible, but I (and I think many people) would be interested to know it was above board.
Easy. Undock. Run 2 x 50 million isk lowsec Worlds Collide per day with an alt. Takes 2 hours of playtime. 700,000,000 per week.
I make a few hundred million per week looting alliance targets as pudding. Sometimes I hit the jackpot and get extra income. Sometimes not.

That option requires the optional Alt Spy plugin.

This kind of reminds me of the old "Letter of Marque" hence "Privateers" i guess im thinking along the line of " Currentlry offfering letters of marque for following alliances: Lots of money Alliance I-X"
Yeah thats basically what it was modeled on. You get nothing when you join and give nothing except the ability to kill the selected enemies - since concord is cool with it it basically comes down to state sponsored piracy aka privateering.

How soon are we going to get this alliance?
Few weeks from now since I'm reluctant to hand over 1 billion to some stranger to make the alliance for me :)

CONCORD has declared this war invalid as it breaches one or more articles in the Yulai Convention.
Yea... I kinda thought this would be a permanent wardec against ISS... What's going on, eh?
War dec expired. We have a new war target for this week taking your slot. We'll be back soon though, do not worry about that
