I'm normally quite shy and feel that I am quite terrible at this game and don't wish to embarrass myself in public :)<br /><br />We are at the point, as a corp, that we tend to have daily roams and fleets and activity up through our strongest time zone periods. This is a very good thing and the pewpew is pouring in. <br /><br />But for my recruits, I may start sponsoring the little ones for Agony and see how that goes. Thanks for the idea.Sugar Kylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15437978687639772023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-238324579504790.post-10509117917702402782013-01-30T21:27:22.185-05:002013-01-30T21:27:22.185-05:00If you do get burnt out (and even if you don't...If you do get burnt out (and even if you don't), take a look into Agony Unleashed's PVP-BASIC class for the new folks. We generally cover all of the "moving in a fleet", "what's spiraling?", etc. topics and top it off with a nullsec roam in a massive ball of ewar-tanked frigatey death.<br />If you want to check it out before you send your own over to us I'll happily sponsor your fee - just shoot me a PM on those forums or an eve-mail (Jysella Halcyon) and join the "Agony PVP Uni" Mailing list to get notification mails of upcoming classes.Jysellahttp://www.agony-unleashed.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-238324579504790.post-12230286311475720432013-01-30T15:06:41.483-05:002013-01-30T15:06:41.483-05:00Sorry, Sugar, I was unclear.

What I meant to comment on - and warn you off from - was the tendency of many corps/alliances in EvE to think of themselves as 'professionals', right down to running their organizations as if they were RL jobs. I think too many players forget that this is just a game and more need to be reminded of it.<br /><br />Not saying that the game should be approached flippantly or anything, just that once newbies start feeling like logging in to their corp is just like going to their RL job, things have gone wrong.<br /><br />Somehow, the sense I get from your writing leads me to believe that you'll be able to keep things from being srs internet spaceships biz :) Good luck and have fun.

This project/problem/job is the solution to something I want. I am a believer in trying to solve my problems and sometimes that means I have to be the one to solve them.Sugar Kylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15437978687639772023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-238324579504790.post-84922928109254940062013-01-30T12:09:37.821-05:002013-01-30T12:09:37.821-05:00You will lose ships.

If you make bad ones make them because you made them not because you were stupid. No one is perfect, no one will ever not lose, derps happen. If people are giving just try to give back and then it works out nicely.Sugar Kylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15437978687639772023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-238324579504790.post-14302193362138504922013-01-30T11:01:39.773-05:002013-01-30T11:01:39.773-05:00Ahoy, Sugar!

Work that might not be fun for you.. So I'll put my all in becoming the damn best pirate pilot I can be.<br /><br />And I won't lose any more ships in Old Man Star. >.>;<br />(And I'll try not to lose any more at all, although that may not be possible).<br /><br />Again: Thank you for giving me one of the rarest treasures in New Eden. I'll try not to fuck everything up! :3<br /><br />CorvusCorvus Revickhttp://www.exitnode.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-238324579504790.post-15262331562030665772013-01-30T09:58:45.083-05:002013-01-30T09:58:45.083-05:00Just remember, this is a game and not a real job/p...Just remember, this is a game and not a real job/profession, and you should do fine. Too many corps/groups in EvE think they are all of that and a bag of chips and their stuff don't stink. The main idea to inculcate, both in vets and the newbies, is that everyone is valuable. Doesn't matter if they only want to fly frigs as tackle/scout, doesn't matter if they suck at PvP but are wiling and eager to go out and fight. As long as the group makes them welcome, most people, in my experience, end up contributing back to the group.<br /><br />In short, be nice, be understanding, be fair, and I think you'll do well. Motivating through positive reinforcement is in finitely better than through negative reinforcement.<br /><br />Heretic Caldarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03015635188565858672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-238324579504790.post-42544391337524330722013-01-30T07:25:02.768-05:002013-01-30T07:25:02.768-05:00Good thing, lowsec needs more pilots.
