Doing so would (1) promote activity through friendly competition, (2) ensure that a grinding newbro's contributions are noticed by his corpmates and (3) automate the reporting process so CEOs won't have to manually; these are busy guys, and are often out-of-the-office. |

Yes to first point, don't see why not on the second. Depends on the mechanics of raiding which is still under discussion.
That kinda stinks from a pirate's point-of-view. If you have 16 guys from different corps who are all looking for trouble, why not let them make trouble? And preferably, then and there; the urge to pillage may be gone in X hours.
Arrrrr.

You're right. I concede. |

Spitballing
We are mercenaries. We fund fight the wars of other men. We have taken to the skies, but we still fight because we are paid to fight, and good pay has never been in higher demand.
Corp as Employer, Merc as Employee. Symbiotic relationship as best relationship.
An Active Merc generates Command Points for his Corp by completing Corporate Missions. These Command Points can be used by an Active Corp to expand into new Resource Bases, harvest / fortify / modify existing Resource Bases, or attack-occupy / attack-raid the Resource Bases of other Corporations. As Active Mercs are requisite to Corp Activity, behind every Active Corp are Active Mercs. Corporate uses aside, a Merc is a Merc, and Mercs get paid. Common corporate compensation includes Isk, but the compensation a Merc really wants is Components.
Active Mercs want Components, so Active Mercs want Active Corps Active Corps want Command Points, so Active Corps want Active Mercs |

:: snip :: All this argument come down with Aurum. No aspect of the argument involves Aurum.
* Components are generated by corp-owned, district-based factories. * Components are stored within corp-owned, district-based facilities. * Components are distributed as payment to personnel for services rendered.
When Raiders succeed in looting your Corp's factories or facilities, your paycheck will show it. You are as motivated to show up and defend as the Raider is to Raid. Isk is old news. What we all want is components. What we'll all get is increased activity. |
