BlackMail Cutting Edge Incorporated RAZOR Alliance 3	Posted - 2011.12.29 15:59:00 - [31] - Quote I believe now this thread is about Waffles
Grath Telkin Sniggerdly Pandemic Legion 337	Posted - 2011.12.30 12:05:00 - [32] - Quote Quote: First 10 Corporations Colossus Technologies, Rebirth Inc, AdGen, PIE Inc., Ltd. Nihilism, New Birmingham Technologies UK, Critical Mass Enterprises, LoneStar Industries, The Firm, Taggart Transdimensional No, you aren't on the list, you are in fact 3 weeks after the first people on the list, so much like you, this thread means nothing.
Reiisha Splint Eye Probabilities Inc. Dawn of Transcendence 60	Posted - 2011.12.31 10:32:00 - [33] - Quote Right, that took a while. Aphoxema G posted something for me while i was trying to figure out why i couldn't. Anyway, in addition to that post, to clarify: Corporations and characters created before 2003.06.01 did not have all their attributes correctly tracked. Employment history was not recorded or displayed untill near the end of 2003 (which is why i don't have a starting corp on my list, nor does anyone else created before 2003.06.01). Corporation founding dates were not tracked at all untill the alliance system was introduced in 2007. CCP pulled the dates for the first 10 corps in that dev blog linked earlier directly from the database, in a way that's simply unsafe to allow for the client (also mind that CCP uses MSSQL, not MySQL or whatever). All founding dates for corps created between 2003.05.06 and 2003.05.30 show up as either 2003.05.29 or 2003.05.30. And i ask again, do people here really believe that in the first 3+ weeks of EVE, not a single corp was created? The first corps were created on 2003.05.06, in the order CCP posted in 2004. I'm sorry, but MINC is not the oldest official corp ;p
NereSky Sicarius. The Kadeshi 2	Posted - 2012.01.01 11:05:00 - [34] - Quote Tallianna Avenkarde wrote: Beta corps didnt transfer when game went live it was fresh. BoB was Fountain alliance or somesuch sillyness in beta i do believe i read somewhere. I'm pretty sure corps like Evolution and others were around in the first few days of eve going live There wasnt any Alliances back then, EVOL (Evolution formed 31/5/2003) were in the North early with Jade Constantine (Jericho Fraction - formed 1/6/2003) part of a Northern Coalition of sorts, Once that finished amid its bitterness, EVOL formed Band of Brothers Alliance with the ticker CCP (cookies cake and pie i think) which for reasons obvious now they had to drop to BOB. Infact Fountain Alliance left Fountain due to ingame pressurs made by Band of Brothers (remnants formed Morsus Mihi) and Band of Brothers moved in. Looking at the other points raised, the term oldest active corps springs to mind, at the time CCP displayed their info etc it maybe a case of these old corps not being active at that time.
Blazde 4S Corporation 11	Posted - 2012.01.04 14:45:00 - [35] - Quote Evolution was also in Fountain Alliance originally (way before ingame alliances existed). Bit before my time but I think the story goes that EVOL and Xanadu went to Fountain (then one of the best regions in EVE) to turf out the locals, and ended up forming FA with some of the locals that fought back. After some months EVOL left, roamed about the galaxy a while and went north, the GNW happened and so on Anyway look up the character Thesiuss on EVE gate. Although his join date to Oberon is too old to show in employment history he's been in it "for 8 years, 7 months, 29 days" which I think works out to May 6th 2003 on the nose (EVE launch date). And Oberon isn't even in the first 10 list from the devblog

When you get 10-20 people together ninjamining you tend to get the 1.5m isk together quite quickly ^^

If they didn't start recording it till later... don't you think that the first corp would be the first to be assigned a date? BTW, your employment history says "Pator Tech School 2004.10.25". I posted that for someone else, Reiisha. EVE Online IdeaTorrent
Lyris Nairn GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 5582	Posted - 2012.01.05 19:10:00 - [38] - Quote oh yeah well I finished my scepter quest and there's no way you can prove that I didn't open the gates of Ahn'Qiraj e: I got my Hand of A'dal a couple of years after that title was no longer awarded, due to the fact that I had the quest in my log just waiting to be turned in for however many months that character wasn't my main.

Given how few people were able to finish the quests and the 10 hour window, i'd take having that mount as enough proof you did open the gates. If you don't have the mount, you didn't open the gates. On a sidenote, the WoW topics are <- that way.
