Similar to what I did with the Alliance of Small Corps, I've created the Small Corp Coalition to help small corps fill their squads as smaller corps often play without full squads due to smaller rosters. The coalition also opens up play for smaller corp battles with prior agreements between each other while also giving the ability to team up with each other against larger external corps. As the majority of those looking to join a corp primarily join corps with huge existing rosters, this will give smaller corps a chance to gain some extra experience while still having a chance to grow. I will act as mediator and facilitator with my corp members also acting as support. If you are interested in joining the coalition, please read through the following and contact me via DUST mail or reply here.
*NOTE1: As the coalition must be self governing among the partnered CEOs, do not exploit the agreed coalition to recruit from within each others' corps. Doing so will most likely blackball your corp from all other coalition corps.
*NOTE2: If there are any player conflicts between coalition corps, being it not liking someone else's playstyle or an actual argument, please bring these up to the player or corp CEO's at the very least. That way we can learn from each other while keeping everyone willing to play together. Afterall, if you simply avoid or ignore a player or corp because of a conflict and they never know why, that could cause increasing rifts between partnered corps defeating the purpose of the coalition. If there is a conflict that cannot be settled directly, I can be called in to mediate the situation.
*NOTE3: Competitive but friendly corp battles are encouraged between coalition corps. Remember no matter what happens on the battlefield, we've all banded together to help each other. Also, whenever fighting with or opposing each other, please constructively give feedback on how to improve and what was done well.
*NOTE4: Please follow the following priority when squadding up as we need to make squadding up between coalition corp members a priority over squadding with unaffiliated players:
1. Corp Members
2. Coalition Members
3. Other Contacts
NOTE5: Coalition channel invites are restricted within your own corp. Corps are only invited into the coalition through me. That way, we can keep track of who is within the coalition.
NOTE6: Those corps who show good activity, organization, and team work no matter how small may find placement within an alliance with numerous EVE and DUST resources where you can retain your corp's individuality while working within an even greater team. |

This is not an alliance but an informal gathering of small corps. It's hard being a small corp on your own, only squadding with one or two other members that are on at a time, having to mostly depend on random squad mates, where corp battles are barely even thought about. I've been there and gathering with other small corps really helped my corp and the other corps involved. I would no longer consider my corp small but still see a need to help smaller corps survive and thrive. Therefore, if you're a small corp CEO that could use some help or just a little dependable cooperation, contact me. |

I've yet to see any small corps interested in the coalition. As said before, I am doing this for the benefit of small corps; not my own. If there are not any small corps interested, as a CEO, an active member within a big alliance, and a merc playing to further their own skills, I could gladly use the time meant for this elsehwere. I'll give the coalition a little more time though to see what happens. |

So far, only one small corp has shown interest and I have yet to hear back from them.
Therefore, this coalition idea may prove to be a bust. |

@ Rugman91 - I explained to the other CEOs on dust-gents.com forum why I was going to do this so. I also explained in the original post above. In summation though as you seemed to skipped over reading those items, I am doing this to band other small corps together to give them the benefits we had in the Alliance of Small Corps.
@ Akuma and Shelly - This coalition was made to help corps around your size. I'll be in contact with you. As invites only work while the recipient is online, I may just send channel and password info to ensure everyone gets on the channel. If I do send the channel and password info, please only share that info with corp mates to keep the channel secure. |

@ Hotdog - This is really meant for new and smaller corps. I am willing to discuss this matter on the XMPLR channel for further consideration though. |

Yes i read the OP nomed. Still don't understand why you wouldnt just recruit these corps to our alliance. Are you doing this just as a service to other corps or am i missing something?
Nomed is trying to say:
"we have the alliance of small corps,. We aren't going to add a huge number of new corps to the alliance, so instead I'm going to create a separate coalition so they can have the benefits we did, with disrupting the balance we currently have in the Alliance."
@ Rugman91 - Please read NOTE 6. BTW, internal alliance questions/discussions should be handled privately via www.dust-gents.com forum instead of public board on official forum.
@ Tectonious Falcon - I always appreciate a point of view from someone who knows nothing about the situation they are commenting as it's always worth a good laugh.
@ Shelly Perotta - The coalition password is secured with a password to aid in management. Don't worry about not knowing everything. Again, that's what grouping together is for; to ask questions and find out info without the worry of being trolled.
@ Everyone else - If you're a new or smaller corp that could benefit from a consistent group of players to squad with, reply or contact me via DUST mail. If you have any questions, please contact me on the XMPLR channel or ask via DUST mail. |

I respond equally to how I am addressed (or interpret). For the most part, it sounded alright until you get to the end (bolded and underlined):
Quote:"we have the alliance of small corps,. We aren't going to add a huge number of new corps to the alliance, so instead I'm going to create a separate coalition so they can have the benefits we did, with disrupting the balance we currently have in the Alliance."
How you phrased it, it sounded like you were trying to start an argument between Rugman and myself. If you were being legimate and mistype "with" when meaning "without", I apologize. |

Quote:it was fun, for some reason I couldnt show i was decent but we all have our bad nights :P
Don't worry about it, Shelly. As long as play to support each other, it's all good. That one match you commented on having trouble particularly sucked for our team as a whole. Didn't help we had 7 friendly snipers under our MMC. I wonder which is worse having on a team, AFKers or snipers? Either way, they seem to have the same affect.  |

If you're a small or new corp CEO that wouldn't mind a little support, then try the Small Corp Coalition. Check out the first post for more details. |

The time for such an idea as this may have passed as smaller corps will have it even harder with the changes indicated in the Planetary Conquest dev blog. I'll go ahead and leave the Coalition available though just in case smaller corps realize the need to band together to survive and be successful. |

The coalition is primarily used to help out small corps. If a corp proves themselves active and efficient over time, their corp may be offered a spot in an alliance. I do not believe in member poaching as I feel my corp is good enough to recruit off its own merit so when it comes to recruitment, it would be for a corp as a whole into the alliance. I don't expect much corp recruitment from the coalition into the alliance though; I merely threw that in as a possible future option.
As for increasing your own corp's numbers, the coalition is supposed to help your corp grow by having a consistent pool of like minded players to squad with. I know several players who left their corp, including mine when I was starting out, due to having no corp members to squad with.
I almost wonder if the coalition is not having much response due to the lack of trust by several scams that have occurred over the last few months. I like being regarded as a trustworthy player and being seen as a resource. I am one of few that rather have a little honest fame than be one of the many who are happy to be known for their infamy. |

@ Akuma - I had not seen you on so we must have different play times.
@ Hotdog - Unfortunately, not many have responded so far so the pool of players is quite shallow at the moment. If you see me on and need a squad, let me know as I have quite a few corp and alliance players to squad with. Shelly perrotta is in the coalition channel , also plays around the same time we're both on, and is a pretty good player to squad with as I played with him already a couple times. As I posted previously, this will take some time to get up and running. I am willing to help whenever called upon though.
If any other CEOs are interested, please send me a DUST mail or reply here. |

Thanks for all those that showed interest but I am shutting this program down.
Earlier tonight, my corp recruitment thread got repeatedly hijacked where I was continually harassed.
https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=40602&find=unread
I reported this going on both in forum and via [email protected] but nothing was ever done. Therefore, I am going to stop wasting my time do extra to support the DUST community when the moderators won't even do their jobs. |

what!!! so no more small corp alliance? i don't get why someone is giving you grief, when your only trying to help. so no more small corp alliance?
that's a shame was hoping to make some allies.
I've thought about reconsidering but with planetary conquest quickly approaching, I figured it was selfishly for the best for me anyway. If you want, Akuma, you can take over from where I left off and I could give you channel credentials and change the first post to your specs. Also, feel free to hit me up on the XMPLR channel if you want to squad up. |

XMPLR is my corp's public channel. There's already several out of corp regulars on it; all are willing to sqd up.
Send me a DUST mail for any changes you want done to the original post and I'll send you the Coalition channel credentials (if hadn't already). I'm also willing to change the Coalition channel credentials upon request even remove the password protection if wanted. |

Quote:it seems like this coalition may be disbanding, is that happening?
Long Answer: It's kind of bad form for Dark Prometheus to say he is interested in joining the coalition and then a day or so later create a similar band of his own and then further still have one of his new partners come and attempt to hijack this thread advertising their own group. If you would of read through the thread, you would know the answer to your question is "No".
Short Answer: No. |

Quote:Whelp I got confused...
My corp joined FSC, than saw Prometheus offer to join this alliance... It lead me to assume they were planning to become one in the same...
The confusion is quite simple as Prometheus inquired about joining the Coalition on 3/28 @ 19:57 and then four hours later on 3/28 @ 23:57 created the FSC. The only problem with your reasoning, Durn, is that you say you joined the FSC before it could of existed. In any case, Durn, I hope you enjoy your choice. BTW, I hope the FSC will finally figure out what chat channel they will use.
For any corps that would like to join a group with some actual organization, please reply here or get in touch with Akuma Fumetsu. |

I'd be fine with that, DarkPrometheus, but at this point, it's Akuma's decision.
In any case, thanks for the clarification and offer. |

The same thing was suggested to me when I ran the Alliance of Small Corps. Truthfully, most big corps are too big where they are thereby very disorganized and impersonal. Look at how many loyal members the big corps have; it's amazing to see how many players flipflop between corps or breakoff to make their own corp taking a part of their previous corp with them. With smaller groups allows greater management and if the CEOs work together as intended, can end up being quite a force to reckon with.
Besides, becoming a one big corp would defeat the purpose of these alliances and coalitions. Furthermore, DUST UI for Alliances has to be coming soon as will be a big part of planetary conquest. |

As I said previously, it's up to you, Akuma. I only started the SCC to help out small corps in the community which the FSC seems to also be doing but with more corps now. It's a pity I let a troll get the better of me as we could of already all be working together in the SCC. Anyway, Akuma, feel free to squad with no matter what you decide but I plan to focus on my corp and alliance from now on as things will get alot busier once planteary conquest hits. |
