Topic: Question about Corps from a PO newb

Eve Online Vet - Perpetuum Online Newb.  Just created my account today during my lunch break, and need to finish the tutorials tonight.  I'm excited by both the similarities and the differences.

When it comes to corporations...

•  What should I be looking for in a corp?
•  What sounds like a great feature of a corp, but really isn't that big of a deal?
•  Who would you say are the "Goons" of PO?
•  Who would you say are the mercenaries of PO - allegiance only to themselves and the highest bidder type of thing?
•  Any corps I should avoid?

I appreciate the input!

Activity mainly. A lot of shell corps sitting around, waiting for the game to pick up while playing other games.

Depends on the time of a day.

Yeah avoid JOKE too

Proverbs 23:20-21 warns us, “Do not join those who drink too much wine or gorge themselves on meat, for drunkards and gluttons become poor, and drowsiness clothes them in rags."

Re: Question about Corps from a PO newb

Go with the active ones I suggest look at the most active corps here : http://www.perpetuum-online.com/~gargaj … porations.

77 used the be the mercs, not sure about now.

CIR is the closest you gonna get from Goons

Cons seem the most active ones

RAD are a great group with both new and some vets to learn.

Re: Question about Corps from a PO newb

We're definitely the most hated corp. smile

So if you can't deal with people hating you because of your corp-tag, you should definitely avoid us.

Re: Question about Corps from a PO newb

M2S was the closest thing to BoB this game has seen. I don't think anyone else can really claim a similarity.

As for Goons there has never been anything like that here, unfortunately. However, there are very many people who like to throw around the phrase "KILLING THE GAME" but then that's the typical response from anyone who recently suffered a severe curb-stomping.

If Goons were here they may say they are not trying to kill THE game, only trying to kill YOUR game.

Sparking to other games

Re: Question about Corps from a PO newb

Kill YOUR Game...lol

Re: Question about Corps from a PO newb

Ol' DJ was always funny like that

Except he wasn't funny when he jacked that titan baby from Kaz.

Was even a song about it, since tolon jacked it from the putrid DJacker shortly after and sailed off into the sunset.

F*ck goons.
