After talking with forsaken1111 it looks like we are going to try to move forward with a WH POS. We have yet to settle on the design but there are some things that need to be done to prepare.

In general I think anyone who wants to come play is more than welcome. Building in WH space will comes some logistics problems, as the exits won't be to predictable locations. That means our trips out to resupply (things like ice) may be a bit of a pain. Also, WH space is dangerous, people can come in and blow you up.

If you want to join anyways, there are some things to do to prepare. First of all, everyone who wants to play should start training probe skills. Basically any skill that beings with Astrometric. That way you don't HAVE to count on having someone else around to let you out.

Secondly, we need plenty of people with planetary interaction skills.

Finally, we need at least a few people who are able to mine ice.

Who is able to invite into HFS?

EDIT: I'd take one to sell... or all your monies...

I can send out a PLEX code to forsaken tomorrow and if another person here needs one before noon EST I can send another, otherwise I will give my remaining money to Fikes.

I wouldn't mind having a PLEX code as an insurance policy, should I not have fifteen bucks by the time my sub runs out again.

So...what are we going to to do about -HFS-? Melvin needs to play some more, it's hard to run a corp in the CEO is out all the time.

If you're that busy and generous... I'd love one. I'm a little bit short on cash right now because my college tuition is well...quite a b****, and the financial aid's used up pretty quickly for dorm and food. I can't hold my subscription for all too long until another installment of financial aid falls through or until I can get another job. I'd love one, but I'd like to remind you that you could always queue up a few skills and leave it running..just a heads up in case you'd forgotten...:].

My Minmatar almost battleship-able character's already in a corp, but if you guys decide to make a bay12 corp, I'm definitely interested. That character's name is "XDarkzz". See you all online :].

I need everyone's char names so I can just send you the money to buy plex for yourselves. I'm just going to send 400m to each of the three who need codes, sorry Fikes. I need to do this today as I think I have sold my character. My character's name is Elizabeth Youngflesh. Send my char an ingame mail so I can send you the isk. The only caveat is that you must use this to buy PLEX.

Sent you an ingame mail. From what I gathered, I'll be bankrolling a large portion of this operation so anything you can donate, assets or cash, would help.

CURSE MY LACK OF FREE-LUCK!!!!!!

Other people need it more. Hopefully they stay active.

If Melvin disappears forever we could always move stuff over to ARS. We'll have to raid the HFS hangers and wallet, but it is still an option. Well, more of a last resort. I assume Melvin will be back though.

Edit: In game name is Thrawn Armidious if you have something interesting left over.

Is nobody in HFS a director?

I can do bits and pieces of stuff, but only Melvin has full access to everything.

Like I said, I am sure Melvin will be back before too long. Until then we have plenty of stuff to prepare including skills and tracking down materials. We should also run as many missions as we can to build up more seed money.

Ouch.

In my experience that's generally a bad idea, more from a psychological perspective, in that it makes the CEO feel like they are alone and always need to be around in case someone needs something. I've found that having a few close friends as Directors takes the pressure off, because I know I'm free to not show up for a week because of work/uni and there'll still be people who can sort stuff out. Being able to delegate is nice, too :)

Of course, trusting people can be hard sometimes, especially if you've not known them for a long time. So it's not as easy as I make out, I'm sure. But still, having at least a second in command (with actual director roles) is a good idea in case something happens and you're without net for a few weeks or something.

In fact it's almost necessary in a game like EVE where you simply cannot function as a corp without a CEO or director around at least part of the time. Right now nobody else can even accept applications into the corp. Whatever corp we decide to use for this, we'll need to set up a better command structure.

It is all a work in progress. Everyone in our group is a newb, so getting things setup right will take a little time. Seperating the two corps is quickly showing to be a worse and worse decision, even though it seemed like a good idea.

We haven't done much of anything for a month, we can take a couple more days to get this stuff sorted out.

I've sent you an ingame mail as well, my good sir! Also, I'm about to check out the corp, looking forward to flying with you guys! :]
