First things first: I'm looking to join a corporation in order to conduct a participant observation study as part of my postgrad thesis in sociology. Any corporation interested in hiring me should be aware that I intend to keep and use chat and combat logs, as well fraps anything of note. So above all else, any interested recruiters must have notified their corp hierarchy, and the body of their corp's members to check for any objection to the idea of what I'm doing. I intend on using aliases for players' names wherever they are directly mentioned, but even so, any intrustion of privacy whatsoever can might be too much for some, so I have to insist.
What exactly am I here to study? I want to look at regulatory structures in Eve, the extent to which they they discipline or socialise players, and how players conversely resist such processes. This is taking into account four sources of regulation: the programmed code making the game itself, informal and uncoded terms laid down by the EULA and ToS, active surveillance and discipline CCP maintains through GMs, and finally, self- and co- regulation of players by other players: I'm interested in corporate hierarchy mostly, but also in things like the common practice of reporting RMT farmers or exploiters. I think all of these save, for what GMs get up to (becuase it's obviously next to impossible for the ordinary player in Eve to hold account of what they do)are best experienced directly, as a player. So, here I am. :)
CHARACTER INFORMATION
Redwyvern is my main and as stated in the title, I've about 28m sp, combat focused, but only trained to use Gallente equipment nearly exclusively. I've mostly been a tackler in the past, using interceptors in fleet ops above all else, but I've also the skills to use an Eris. Still, my battleship skills are fine and I'd estimate I'm about a month or so from a full t2 setup. I've trained industrials to IV, so I suppose I can fly an iteron, but as a rule of thumb, I'm awful when it comes to industrial, POS, and research aspects of EVE both in terms of character skill and personal experience.
I've been playing on and off since 2004, and have spent most of my playtime as a member of the Four Horsemen, a split pvp/industrial crowd with a decent record, if you excuse the bias. I've also had stints in D2D, Firestar, and Eve-University after the collapse of the Big Blue. In my time I've fought mostly in Syndicate, Geminate, and if memory serves me right, Impasse. I have vague memories of Xetic, fondly remember KiaTolon's drunk rage in the OSS, and lament the collapse of TBB. I'm happiest in 0.0, but for the sake of my research, I'm really not picky who I'm recruited by, where, or for what purpose so long as they're cool with me doing my study.
Finally, an honest warning: I haven't really been well and truly active since the Red Moon Rising expansion. I'll likely need a while to catch up on the paradigm shift and whatever setups and fleet tactics are in vogue these days. I'm well rehearsed in the basics however, and I'm confident I can contribute to whomever recruits me after a bit of time spent reacquainting myself with the game.
I'm active mostly weekdays, GMT+1 timezone. As a student, I'm pretty flexible, but weekends are out through awkward part-time work and such.
Any information I've missed about myself and a recruiter needs to know, please tell me. Same goes if there's any issues regarding my study I've left out. Thanks! |

Hi RedWyvern,
Brothers In Scarlet is actively looking for newer players to join our growing and expanding corporation. Every week we've been able to gain and retain new players so that anyone that joins will have other people to fly with.
Brothers In Scarlet (BROIS) is dedicated to helping newer players learn the game and develop their characters. The corporation is built upon the principles of Grow, Expand, and Conquer as these are the cornerstones to our corp so is the determination to build ourselves an economic empire.
Currently there are no recruiting restrictions except we do not allow piracy. This is important for you to know, in that you have the freedom to build your character in any way you see fit.
BROIS already has many assets and a newly developed industrial office capable of supporting its member's needs and wants. As a democratic corporation, you have the choice of also buying shares in the company which would allow your voice to be heard on issues put to vote. Our members, with a seasoned leadership staff, point the corp in the direction they want by having that voice.
If you're looking for a place to fly with good helpful people, and a good adrenaline rush as we move closer to low security, then fly on in and check us out. You won't regret your decision when you join, guaranteed.

bumping: I'm looking to do another stint in a different corp. MBALM and the gravediggers are a crowd of bloodthirsty lovely lads, but for the sake of academia I've to move on.
Ideally, I wish to move from an empire based, autonomous and loosely structured pvp alliance to pretty much anywhere that can provide a strong contrast to some or all of these variables. Any interested 0.0 entities or composite pvp/pve groups would be good, but any large, hierarchically organised corporation would make a good contrast. I'm happy to work wherever, but I'd like to restate that my skills are mostly combat-oriented.
Confidentiality is again the most important thing any interested recruiters must bear in mind: for ethical reasons, corp/alliance members have to be informed of my presence and consent to my study. I've arranged this in Privateers simply through alliance mail, after which most people seemed clued in, so permission to do something similar would be preferable when I join.
So, if any of the previous invitation offers are still open or any recruiters wish to make some new ones, please do. I plan on conducting the study until mid-January. Character information remains the same as it was in the OP, but I s'pose I can say I'm set up for HACs and Recons now.
Thanks :) -------------------------------------------------- Loyalty, Integrity, Honour. |

Will your findings be published, and if so : where ?
It looks like you will only join for a short while, but I can check with our CEO anyways.
We're an established alliance in providence, and are the major cap builders there atm. Might be interesting for you.

The long and short of it is 'possibly', entirely dependent on my findings and quality of writing. For the question of you or your corp's confidentiality,however, it's probably best to assume 'yes' if you're considering inviting me.
It will be a short stay, yes. I intend on staying three weeks before moving on again. This could be a good or bad thing depending on your perspective
