I have no bpo or apex loadouts. I'm at about 5mil sp after a couple months and isk is getting hard to manage as I get adv. gear. A friend who started around the same time was lucky to be gifted a bpo suit and scrambler rifle, I can see the savings are immense.

Honestly, an "adopt a noob" program where people donate bpos to new players would be incredibly helpful and would definitely encourage players to stick around. Especially if when getting stomped you have a decent or even exceptional load out that costs you little or nothing.

It could be conditional that they pass on the BPO for free to a new player when they stop using it or are well off. Or even return it to the previous owner after X amount of time or when done using it.

I would totally help start this program, one cuz bpos, i have none, duh. But also because it would help new players feel welcome and part of a community that isn't just out to farm them. And even when getting farmed it's not as painful when you're not losing isk.

I actually was about to start that.

I called it- A4NP

Apex for noobs program. All you had to do was join my old Corp (which I lost and stopped this but might revive)

And just play. Yup, just play. The catch? There was higher tax Corp so more isk could enter Corp wallet. Then it would be used to buy Apex and give them to new players.

If our starters could go toe to toe with most of the suits/kits being ran in pubs these days it'd be no problem. But it's like wearing paper mache and shooting nerf guns otherwise...

Dust University should employ this program, as I feel a lot of noobs get pushed to DU. Any thoughts DU?
