There's going to be a lot of text here to read. The reason? It's better when recruiting to be as open and transparent as possible. Why? So you can get the correct recruits. Many recruiters in this game are happy to sell you a song and dance, morphing their pitch to fit whatever it is they think the person talking to them wants.
There's a gazillion corps in EVE, and more started everyday. So why yet another corp?
There needs to be a corp for those of us who want to small gang PvP without having to deal with edge-lords and douche-maestros in our ear-holes.
It's really just that simple. So let's not waste your time, really...
Hit the back button now if...
- "Hey, they call each other that, why can't I say it!"
- "lol we raped them because **** is totally like killing space pixels and it's fun to say I raped someone!"
- "omg I'm so high right now and/or drunk which I'm probably not but I don't have a personality so I just talk about getting high and/or drunk incessantly!"
- "Let me tell you guys about this chick I slayed... with my ****! Guys I'm going to tell you all about having sex please believe me it actually happened, no really!"
If you do any of the above on comms, there's like... five thousand corps that are perfect for you. You will absolutely not have a hard time finding a corp. Have fun! And get out mi'thread!
When I came back to the game after a ten month spell of winning EVE, there seemed to be a sad, clear choice. Either you can join a corp that bills itself as classy/mature who invariably don't PvP much or you can join a corp that advertises small gang PvP but has junk like slurs, usually untrue tall tales about sex, dank this, dank that... dank dank dank... or the worst... that high-pitched voice on voice comms, the sign of a fellow that hasn't yet quite smashed through the last part of the puberty process. It's just so tiring.
So the goal is to accumulate some like-minded Old Spacemen that want to PvP and aren't annoying edgelords. Do you necessarily have to be an ancient fellow? Nope. Do you even need to necessarily be a fella at all? Nah! Just need the basic maturity and social intelligence that you'd use offline.
Additionally, do you need to be a l33t PvP'er? Nope. Hell, honestly would prefer that you aren't. Do you need globs of SP or PvP experience? Nope. We'll be flying fairly cheap stuff for the most part. All that matters is that you have the right attitude and want to enjoy or at least, learn to enjoy some small gang PvP. Want to join on an alt while your main rots away PvE'ing in a giant bluefest coalition or vice versa? Sure, go nuts.
Culture out of the way, let's talk specifics.
- EUTZ/early EST focus
To start, going to focus on recruiting people who are on during EUTZ or early EST. That's when my schedule currently allows me to focus on EVE. Can guarantee activity between 1300-1900 and 2130-2330 during Sunday-Thursday and in both EUTZ and USTZ on Friday's and Saturday's. Should be a roam every Friday Night around 2300 and Saturday at 1800 or 1900. If we end up with some weekend warriors in USTZ, then will likely do a weekly roam at 0100 on Saturday's as well.
- Focus on small gang PvP roams and gate camps
I like small gang stuff. And not "lol we got 20 guys, we're flying small gang" but talking 2-15 people, roaming or gate-camping, responding to traffic through our staging, that sort of thing. No structure shoots, no dreams of a giant POS empire or joining some mega-blue coalition. Just some PvP whenever possible. If you haven't killed anything before? Great! Inexperience is fine.
- Living in NPC Delve
Situated right smack between Querious and Sov-Delve, can roam to shoot at whoever is living in Delve, can roam over to Querious and run around one of the most populated regions of null-sec, can even head south to Period Basis and watch as Russian bots warp their ratting ships into POS's. Okay, so two of those options sound good at least. Having people to shoot at who live fairly close to our staging should never be an issue.
- Logistics
Already have gear and material staged, ready for recruits. Fit ships on contract, a fairly tight list of doctrine ships for small gang roaming and camping. Need something imported? Not a real issue, will be at least a couple JF runs each week.
- How do you make isk?
It's NPC Delve so if you really need some isk, you can either grind some pirate missions or you can go run an incursion somewhere in high-sec or you can do market stuff. It is not really safe to mine, and honestly, that's not a great way to make isk anyways. This won't be a PvE corp so making isk is really something that will be left to your own devices. However, can promise that there is no shame in flying low-cost PvP ships and we'll be working hard toward establishing an SRP program that won't leave you penniless.
- Casually active and actively casual
The idea is to keep things pretty casual in terms of time requirements. Living in an NPC station allows us to do that. No structure shoots, no PAP links, no giant bluefest, no blobs of ships. You can't log on but once a week because of your offline schedule? Fine by me. Need to go AFK for two weeks? Your stuff will be fine in our staging location for when you want to log back in. Whether you're super active or semi-inactive, it doesn't really matter when it comes to our focus on small gang roams and camps.
- What are the goals?
Kills and decent people to play EVE Online with, that's the goal. We'll be living in the same spot, doing roams, getting kills, feeling the little rush of gaming adrenaline that only EVE PvP can provide. Long-term goal is about getting numbers so that at some point, we can potentially have activity in both EUTZ and proper USTZ on a daily basis.
Next post covers why you should believe me and some bribery for our initial recruits. |

So really, why take a chance on joining my little start-up corp here? Hey, it's a corp just starting out, there isn't a great base of numbers yet, why should you believe anything I've written?
I hate being in a position to have to unironically toot my own horn, arrogance is always ugly. So let's try to write this in a way that doesn't come off smug as hell and gives a realistic picture of why this corp can get off the ground successfully.
- Already got a successful corp off the ground
I started the corporation Reasonable People way back in 2009. The problem way back then was much like now, wanting a corp free of cringe-worthy comms. It worked well. We grew over time and accomplished quite a lot for a corp that never joined up into a large alliance or power bloc. We lived in high-sec for a spell, lived in a WH for a short spell, and then focused on PvP'ing in NPC Null, experienced what alliance's can do right and wrong... decided to start our own alliance. We grew that alliance into around 300 people and PvP'd so effectively that the crusty weirdos that run Providence asked us if we'd take sov. So we did, and we killed thousands of ships each month living there. Then, due to my awesome skills at diplomacy, we fought a little 9 day defensive war against said crusty weirdos, fighting them to a standstill until they agreed to our conditions. After four years of all that, I had no goals left as an alliance leader and turned the alliance over out of my own initiative to a nice lady who was quite a bit more ambitious.
We went and joined up with an entity called HERO after a lengthy spell living in NPC Null-sec, which turned out to be a fairly big disaster overall. The story of that stuff could be a whole 'nother five posts or so, so let's TL-DR it by saying that it led me to burn out massively, to quit leading the corp I created. Which I probably shouldn't have done, but it is what it is. After ten months of being out of the game, got the itch again and voila... getting a new corp off the ground. The old alliance I started is still kicking, they're living in a wormhole and doing their thing.
- Not a great _____, but a willing _____.
This can pretty much cover everything in EVE. I am not great at any particular part of EVE. But I'm willing to do most of the roles in EVE, which hey, is half the battle. Not a great FC, but I'll happily FC almost daily if I have people on. Not a great logistics coordinator, but I've got a JF and I'm happy to haul stuff around. Not a great recruiter, but it's not a problem to recruit people. I'm not a great diplomat... but y'know, it tends to work out when I'm called on to do diplomacy. Overall, it works for the scale of gameplay I'm shooting for with OLD-S.
- Ran a successful SRP for years based off PvP loot
For many years, I ran a pretty simple and successful SRP formula based off nationalizing PvP loot. What that means is that everything we kill, we loot. We take the loot back to the corp hangar and we put into the "PvP Loot" corp hangar. Then that is turned into isk which is turned into SRP. With this method, we SRP'd every t1 frigate at 5 million isk, every t1 cruiser at 15 million isk, every BC at like 45 million isk, etc, etc. And t2 gear was usually SRP'd at close to hull value. This reimbursement coupled with ship insurance meant that people in my alliance who lost ships didn't lose their wallet. And unlike large alliances, you didn't have to beg someone to SRP you... it was done every couple of weeks just by using the lossmails on the killboard. Did that for years and years successfully.
Quick factoids:
- Voice is in the "This is EVE!" trailer from 1:12 to 1:17. No, not the female, the generic male voice. Also, our comms were mislabeled as being TEST Alliance. :goodjobCCP:
- My writeup of the "Never Bend the Knee" 9-FOB war, which received some praise at the time:
Day 1/2 - Day 3/4/5 - Day 6/7 - Day 8/9 and Conclusion
- Successfully led an effort to birth an outpost, just like every other person who has ever lived in Providence, probably.
- Ranked in the top 1000 characters on Zkillboard in terms of ships killed. Which isn't terribly shabby considering I quit the game from October '13 to February '14 and mid-April '15 to February '16.
- Speaking of which, you can tell when I quit both times by looking at my previous alliance's stats in terms of monthly kills
First Month Recruit Appreciation Rewards - March 13th to April 15th As the corp needs to get off the ground, it means we don't have a big playerbase for you to jump in with right away. Hence, it's going to require a bit of a leap of faith for those who want to come aboard that this won't completely suck.
First time flying with me? If you join between March 13th and April 15th, stick with us for 90 days and get at least five kills a month each of those first three months... I'll give you two fully fit Scythe Fleet Issue's at the end of those 90 days. Beats a kick in the ass, really.
Have flown with me at any point in the past in SOUND and want to join on your main? Same deal as the above except I'll drop 300 million into your wallet at the end of those 90 days instead as a "thank you" for coming aboard and being a long-term bro'fella.
Lastly, there will be a drawing on July 15th of the people who meet either of the above requirements and the winner will get a plex.
So yeah, that's it. If you read this far... hey, look at you, you can read! If you're interested in joining, feel free swing by the OLDS chat channel in-game so we can have a short conversation in-game. Thanks! |

The culture aspect sounds good to you, but you're looking for something else other than a focus on small gang PvP? Or you don't want to join a corp that is just starting up? That's cool. Here's a quick list of other options.
- If you're looking for a wormhole corp with a similar culture in terms of not being a cockface, check out the old corp I created and built, Reasonable People, who are recruiting for their WH operations.
- If you don't want to PvP at all and are just looking for a bunch of old fellas to PvE with while dying all the time, there's a group called "The Older Gamers Alliance" that recruit older folk who don't care about PvP'ing.
- If you're a big blobber and looking for big blobby :maxdudes: fleet stuff, check out the Get Off My Lawn alliance, who are reputed to have a fairly mature culture. Imperium boo! |

Did you know: Star TrekGÇÖs Spock was originally conceived as a red-skinned alien with a plate in the middle of his stomach. He didnGÇÖt eat or drink but fed upon any form of energy that struck his stomach plate.
I wonder how long Star Trek would have lasted with a red-skinned goofball running around with dinnerware on his belly throwing himself at energy sources or in front of alien blasters.

Did you know: Corn dextrin, a common thickener used in junk food, is also the glue on envelopes and postage stamps
Which is why I always mocked people when they criticized my eating stamps, nothing like that delicious Corn Dextrin to start the day right. I always preferred mowing down on the 32 cent stamp personally, a better mix of paper product and tasty glue-stuffs than today's 49 cent stamp. Looking for a corp to mail your application to?

Did you know: A wormhole (a.k.a. an Einstein-Rosen Bridge) is a hypothetical GÇ£tunnelGÇ¥ that connects two different points in space-time. In theory, at the end of a wormhole could be two universes. Some scientists speculate that our universe could be located within the interior of a wormhole, which itself is a part of a black hole that lies within a much bigger universe
No wonder our local chat is so screwed up. So basically we just need to launch some probes and find our way out of this friggin' system. Seems like scientists need to start working on a little shite mini-game where we can overlap small white sphericals to find the proper route to a system with better security status.

Xavier is one of the best FCs that I've flown with. He built up my corp from nothing, and is one of (and perhaps even "the") original founders of the "don't be a dickhead" culture in EVE (which really shouldn't need to be a special type of culture, but sadly is).
If you join his corp you will learn how to PVP, and Delve/Querious is a great place to be doing it.
Also you'll probably fly Scythe Fleet Issues. Which is sexy. As hell. +1 |

This feels like there should be a movie based around this concept.

So I use a random facts trivia site to generate these stupid facts and then I write a little blurb. I have no idea if that fact is true. I know I want it to be true. The idea of Brits making paper crowns to wear while they eat Christmas Dinner is rather hilarious. Hungry for something different? Tired of self-serving potentates filled with spacey haughtiness? Swing by OLDS chat today so we can try to serve up a filling EVE experience.
Indeed that is true Xavier, at least for some. here is a pic of some randoms wearing the hat you mention.

Thanks for the confirmation, Vartan.
Did you know: British people actually do indeed create paper crowns to wear while they eat christmas dinner. Holy crap, that's hilarious.
I had always wondered if America were truly better than Great Britain, but now I know it is. Swing by OLDS chat today so we can celebrate the dominance of the new world over the old, which has just now been finally confirmed. |
