JamnOne Amarr	Posted - 2008.05.19 18:52:00 - [1] Ok, from what I have read it is not really clear. I am sure in future blogs there will be in answer but the corp is discussing now what to do. It has been stated that both individuals and corps can sign up to be part of their Faction. My question is really simple, can I support/sign up for my faction as an individual but remain with my Corp or do I have to leave my corp? ________________________ Originally by: CCP Wrangler So, it's all my fault.

JamnOne Amarr	Posted - 2008.05.19 19:26:00 - [3] Ok, I read the blogs and the quote mentioned above and it doesn't make sense. Here is what Ginger said in the blog: Originally by: CCP Ginger To sign up as an individual, you cannot be in a corporation, and therefore, not an alliance. In the first blog for today, it doesn't say anything about individuals not being able to sign up if you are a member of a corp. In the second blog it says the following: "The bottom line here is that it's not a technical impossibility for corporations to be a member of both an Alliance and a Militia" Since it is not a technical impossiblity for a corporation to be a member of both then it should be even easier for a player to be a member of both. If nothing else, allow a player to sign up for a Faction and by doing this they have access to special agents for mission running. I am sure it is not that hard to flick a switch in the code that says something that JamnOne is an Amarr Loyalist and should have access to these extra agents. The switch is already in place based on standings now. There are some agents you can't use unless you have a certain standing. Try using a research agent. They even have more requirements. I think players should be allowed to do both remain in their corp and participate in FW. Just like I also think this should go across all of space 1.0 to 0.0. Just my 2 cents. ________________________ Originally by: CCP Wrangler So, it's all my fault. Originally by: CCP Prism X Hah! Vengeance is sweet!
JamnOne Amarr	Posted - 2008.05.19 20:11:00 - [4] Originally by: Jakus Cemendur Well if they did let individuals in any corp sign up to faction warfare that would bring up other problems, like different individuals in the same corp being parts of different factions. It makes sense to have a player commit to FW(eg by signig up themselves or by corp signing up) or to stay with their corp(if their corp doesn't join FW). Frankly wanting to be part of FW and not wanting to leave your current corp sounds like wanting the best of everything without wanting to make any difficult choices. I'm not looking for the best of both worlds. The corp I am associated with are friends outside of game. We all have lives other than Eve, even though it is a joke in my corp that Eve is my girlfriend. Right now my corp is missing over half it's members due to real life events and we can't just say this is what the corp is going to do without their input. So until they can vote and give an opinion why not let those of us who want to do both roles, do both roles? ________________________ Originally by: CCP Wrangler So, it's all my fault.

JamnOne Amarr	Posted - 2008.05.20 17:00:00 - [5] Originally by: Zeba Then don't participate. Wanting to stay in your original corp and still be included in FW is like wanting to have one charecter in both the Goons and Bob at the same time. Tbh war dec mechanics would make it totaly impossible to stay in your player corp regardless. How can you say because I want to do FW and still fly with my friends is like being part of Goon and BoB? I don't see the relation at all. The corp I am with has excellent standings with Gallente and Minmatar and both of those races hate me. But at the same time, if my corp is running missions in Gallente space I go help them and if I am running missions in Amarr space they come help me. My standings with Amarr and allies are between 4 & 6. I have ran missions in low sec, hopefully starting lvl 5 missions soon, as well as hi sec. I even mine in low sec. All Amarr Space. I don't see a reason why I can't do FW and remain with my corp. Maybe if CCP can chime in here to give us a reason that would be great. As I mentioned before what I would like to see is that I swear my allegience to the Amarr Race and I get access to another set of mission agents. If I have to run into low sec, great. I don't have an issue with that. The only time I see an is if my corp goes and joins Gallente and Minmatar - then I would have to leave it as I am already committed to Amarr. ________________________ Originally by: CCP Wrangler So, it's all my fault.

JamnOne Amarr	Posted - 2008.05.20 19:18:00 - [6] Originally by: Nur Vadenn I canÆt even begin to imagine why members of a player corporation would even be interested in faction warfare. Simple, for me I am loyal to Amarr. I give my Minmatar Corp mates a really hard time about this. One of my corp mates is so loyal to the Minnie Babies that she refuses to enter Amarr space. Our corp is divided on which side to join. Look at it this way here - the corp wants to remain neutral. Some of the members want to help their allies/friends win. This is not an uncommon practice as it has happened before in History with "The Great War" and WWII being 2 examples. With the government's (corp) knowledge people were able to assist their friends. Consider us spies if you will. I mean think about it, How many people does a side have in their Army? That number is generally published. What is not published are those who appear to be neutral during the day but have members going out and helping their friends. History is full of this. Why should it stop now only because we are in space? ________________________ Originally by: CCP Wrangler So, it's all my fault. Originally by: CCP Prism X Hah! Vengeance is sweet!
