We dont do reimbursements.
And you dont have corp stasis because you dont get roles.
So yeah.
Facts dude.
Edited to add:
1 loss, no real involvement in fights and you seek to judge. Awesome. Mangala is not FC, yet another randomly updated EVE blog.

Like you I lost my first ship in RvB already when trying to move to the Red HQ. I stuck around though, and have had over 150 kills in about a month, even though I play casually and only a few hours pr. week. Incidentally, it's the most fun I've had in EVE in a long time and the most fun I've had in RvB so far is flying in a destroyer worth less than 5 mil.
Also, please always remember that RvB is friendly PVP in the sense that the two teams respect each other and try to have fun fights, but it's not a cuddle zone where you will never be ganked. The principal rule of EVE applies to RvB as well, don't fly what you can't afford to lose...

Hi Xygatrix, it sounds to me like you never really gave it a chance, but I guess it would be a boring world if we all liked the same thing.
I would take issue with you on a couple of points though. Firsly, while gate camps do occur, they can be avoided and they do not exist all the time regardless. Secondly, the number of faction ships used is actually quite minimal. A quick look at our killboards would see that most of our fights are in t1 frigates, destroyers and cruisers.
RvB really is an experience that to get the best out of, means putting a little effort in. The majority of folks that join us enjoy their stay, and many of us (including myself) are former bittervets that have had their faith restored in Eve via RvB.
One final note regarding your cruiser. I am sorry for your loss, but I'm not sure why you expected to be reimbursed for it? We have a free frigate programme, but any larger ships need to be covered by the individual player.
If I were you, I'd give it another chance. You may be pleasantly surprised.
All the best, Jim |

What you were told to expect is the actual case, plus lots of regular events and themed weekends. There is also a designated system for 1v1's as well if this is more your bag than fleets, though you can solo anywhere.
Like the poster above, only fly what you can afford to lose as you will quite possibly go through a lot of ships simply due to the sheer volume of good fights!

in relation to the poster who had a bad time of it - I fly a Rifter more often than not. Said gate camps can be avoided easily enough by - not landing directly on gate (have a tactical), or jumping through in a frig which is hard to lock without fast-lockers around which most fleets don't have.
While we do have both a solo only system (Nomaa - FFA), we also have RvB NoobFleet that is specifically set up for new players to learn the ropes (and you can do so without losing a ship - as we do most training and testing to low armor).
So, your experience while frustrating should not be the norm. |

Friendly bump for my former corp. RvB taught me to PvP. RvB is the best place to get on-demand PvP for newbies and veterans alike. That and the awesome regulars of RvB. Miss you Del, Mang, Kikkio, Mathias and so many awesome guys. |

If you coudn't afford to lose it, you should have left it in the hangar. I've lost a hell of a lot more for various reasons (including gate campers). So it goes ... |

We are having a great time running around and playing with E-UNI right now! In just over 24 hours RvB and E-UNI have had almost 1,200 kills. Great time and it is really nice to change things up every now and then. Also I really love flying in Purple fleets! |

Just a question, if I bounce between Incursions and PvP do I have to leave corp every time, to do said incursions or is there a safe way to do them without being eaten by frigs in my NM while in Corp? |

Depending on the location of the incursion you will be safe from other RvBers, however we almost always have third part wars going on and those guys are going to try their best to kill you while missioning or running incursions. :(
We do however have an open door policy so you can come and go as much as you like. |

Yes the channel is R-V-B.
Lots of helpful people in there all day long. Mangala is not FC, yet another randomly updated EVE blog.

Just want to thank RVB for my first kill mail tonight.
It was a 1v1 frig, that end up with me killing 4 frigs and being killed by a cruiser!
Good fun was had by all.

Great Scott ive got a yerning for some pvp, been searching through belts hunting pirates for days. Either they got a battlecruiser or numbers, and ya cant beat that in a frig. (Not with these skills)
Im most likly going to join one of these factions, and with little luck have i found an official forum to ask these questions.
Is webbing and warp distribute allowed?
Also what perks does each red and blue Coprs have on each other. (im sure there is something) Ex. Red or Blue HQ is closer to jita (Perk is less jumping for resupply)
What are each sides numbers looking like? What faction ships does each side normally pilot? What is the likely hood of a frigate or cruiser surviving on its own? (How likely is it to be ganked if looking for a fight in combat area?)
I heard something about probing for ships not being allowed. (What is that about?)
If this is a bad way to ask questions just tell me whats up. I went to the R-V-B channel a few times and no one was there.
I have plenty of ships to burn, just need a little help with the process. :) |

Was going to post and tell you to join Blue to hunt Mang like the rest of us, but you are already in Red....
...all you need to do is put your app in to Blue and I will accept it ....
otherwise you are just going to find life difficult.
...Mang notwithstanding
