This is precisely why we rewrote the SNIGG application, it was too reliant on mechanical questions that anyone with a brain could just copy-paste from other apps/Google, which isn't necessarily a bad thing because looking elsewhere for something you don't know proves you have critical thinking abilities, BUT SNIGG is like... ungodly big right now so we can be choosy on who we want to let in. We'd rather take cooldudes than elite fags, see this thread for such an example: https://www.pandemic-legion.com/forums/showthread.php?67219-FrEeSoUl5150

Like I said though, it's super easy to just look at other people's apps that worked and use that and nobody will really care if they notice. Plus we're the superior corp because we have A&C while SNIGG are scrubs for not having any. Though we do have Blastx so that is a negative

Drythe posted:I've said in Elysium multiple times, but where the gently caress is all the goon propaganda? Enemy propaganda is really loud but it's also the only thing bringing them together. There's a lot less Imperial propaganda by comparison and I think that's due to the unspoken understanding that no meme or image is as effective as a fireside chat or SOTG from dear leader. Most of what we publish are images of necessity like infographics and things. For every piece of meme propaganda that gets published there are five more ideas that are vetted for subtext and message. There is also a subgroup of the Imperial propaganda team who do songs and they're constantly busy. As long as you start with a good idea, the graphic implementation is usually very quick. The propaganda group has a lot of artists who are good with their tools. If there's a funny idea you'd like to see as propaganda, stop by the propagoonda channel on jabber.

Percelus posted:You made a post explaining why phorde getting the short end of the stick 'builds character' and another about how they shouldn't worry about being forced to do grunt work while completely excluded from flying expensive toys with mainfleet in PL because it's totally cool they're just doing their own thing. Sorry if I wasn't convinced So the CFC has absolutely zero divides in any of its groups? There are absolutely no requirements to join anything at all in the CFC? Day 1 newbie can freely apply to your supercapital group? To your leadership groups? Sorry that divisions are required in Eve to maintain security? Sorry that PL has more stringent requirements than Horde does? I'm not exactly sure what it is you're trying to make out as being bad here. It's funny because Horde has more to give to players than PL does in that Horde actually owns space and PL doesn't, meaning Horde can provide players a place to make money whereas PL are expected to do it on their own with alts. A member of Horde with one character has an easier time with traditional moneymaking than someone in PL does with one character. Is being a part of the PanFam a bad thing if you're not in PL? You seem to think it does, which is unfortunate considering the pure innocent fun people in Horde (and probably to a lesser extent Waffles) seem to have.

"are you a shitler?" and "do you have someone who knows you better than I do, who can verify that you are not a shitler?" I think the forum is retired now but in the thread where that Lilith guy was mauled and other threads at the time there was a lot of ship and fleet question along the lines of "You are facing a hostile MWD HAC armour fleet. What fleet comp would you choose. Elaborate on your answers" With follow up questions. Or questions about the ships the applicant presented and how they would fare against certain doctrines and what modules he would change depending on the enemy. All I remember at the time was that I had no idea what any of the answers were and that space Flanders probably did know. But a quick glance at a few of the later threads and none of that seems to be applicable any more. Now it's about the vouches and some shitposting to see if they can get the applicant to lose his temper. More about how he answers the questions and not the answers.

The cultural revolution never made it to PL, although Horde is clean and non-hostile internally. I think that eve is poised to get better and better over the next year or two - aegis sov seems to be working as intended, jump fatigue sucks rear end but is a necessary evil (and blops are gonna get another round of insulation there), and there's going to be a metric poo poo ton of new stuff in space to shoot, and pos code will finally be a thing of the past. Yay seagull.

Endie posted:Yeah In the last couple of weeks I've had about 12 or 14 really good Eve players (judging by their kbs and in some cases what I know of them) approach me who didn't have vouches, and whom I had to advise not to apply. If PL recruited on just ability criteria then they'd mostly be in. But they didn't have vouches, so a couple of them were probably spies, maybe another couple would have been prone to starting poo poo in alliance irc or sulking when someone shouted at them for anchoring on the FC in an inty or something like that. The vouch isn't "hey this guy is good at eve" it is "hey this guy is good company and won't make movie night a misery." I'm just curious, when is the last time PL let in a newbie because he was a chill dude?

People joining PL or Waffles (should) know what they're getting into, but Horde are newbies and casuals and don't deserve to be exposed to what we normally act like. They get plenty of warnings about this if they actively decide to try to "move up the ladder" if you wanna use the hyperbole that other guy is spouting.

ChickenWing posted:Based on the source, I doubt the hell out of this. Nah he's pretty much right. We try to keep the typical PL stuff that's getting brought up out of Horde for the obvious reason that a new player group shouldn't have that sort of thing. Some of the Euros have this really hard time understanding that "fag" isn't really something you say, especially the britbongers who try and pull the "but i'm talking about a cigarette." That said, it generally takes a warning and it's fine. There's been really rare cases where people had to be told more than once. There are a few PL people who are basically denied access to Horde services because we know they'll be trouble. Mekchu fucked around with this message at 17:02 on Apr 5, 2016 |

It still is false equivalence because all those SIGs want is for potential recruits to hang out on comms and fleet with them for a bit before formally joining. At no point is anyone inside our coalition ever barred from the opportunity to do so because of their alliance tag.

Probably because you're either vouched as being a non-shitter, or you did your time in waffles and proved that you're a non-shitter. Asking pointless questions on a space guild app doesn't prove anything other than you can view other apps and take a few minutes to discreetly paraphrase the other answers.

Looking at my killboard, I have a whopping 310 or so PVP kills since 2011. I do like to take multi-year sabbaticals from EVE though, so that may be a part of that problem. Speaking of which, I unsubbed again, maybe I'll get back into it once I'm not living in AUTZ. Years of having little to 0 activity in my TZ has soured me on EVE and it's gonna take a lot to break that.
