Or the battle gets drawn out and is no longer profitable or worthwhile and you remember about PRO.

Yeah, when you two solidified this planet as the one, I was pretty intimidated by the district number. So preferably, another college of sorts would take those districts.

Those are candidates...I just got the creepiest shiver running down my spine....

You have to be joking. Are you guys trying to overextend yourselves, or what? Last time I checked, you aren't even capable of getting mentioned as a corp people are afraid to see in battle (mentioning yourselves in every other thread doesn't count)

Dust University is allied with BSOTT on the planet arrangement. Reference Post # 10

If indeed molden heath is the location of the first opening, then Hedaleolfarber is actually an ideal planet for a corporation. not only does it have plenty of districts, but it also is isolated from attack. JL3Eleven does NOT speak on behalf of PFBHz. We aren't sure where we're going to settle, if we settle at all, but I personally think you're in for a tough time if you think you're going to just be able to split 12 districts between two corps with absolutely no competition. in fact, by advertising, you are just opening yourselves up to invasion early on, since everyone knows the two corps are filled with newer guys. (Thats the point).

I'm just going to tell it to you how it is. You should abandon this idea of hoping people will come to your aid. Wait a few months after Uprising, see how things turn out, then find a planet that is least contested. Or wait until they release more regions, leaving you more space to deal with. because at first, with such a limited amount of Districts, you're going to be hard pressed to find any districts that aren't almost constantly being fought over.

More power to you though. But I can tell you without a shadow of a doubt that I don't support this method of "claiming a planet". This is not a game for charitable people. What you are doing with these learning corps is admirable, but you say you want to "eliminate taxes". Well, thats what a lot of other corps probably hope to do with taking districts. how are they less important than you?

Do you even lift?

Who says we don't have to pay ISK? Who says we won't have to fight? Who said anything of the sorts? I think you're point will be received as being lesser, because your corp in doing so will skip out on the planets of real worth.

Erm, I'm not a very good translator, but I think the theme of this post was closer to, "The imps are complete pricks, so we know they will try to take our planet just for ***** and giggles, so we would appreciate it if corps likeminded to us will lend a hand to us against them."

No offence, of course.

First off....Bojo, please tell me you're talking to Vaerana Myshtana about becoming a diplomat...

Secondly, DUST University orginally posted our intentions to take a specific planet for two key reasons, NEITHER of which involve asking for donations or agreed upon support.

1. Maintaining our neutral stance by declaring our intentions to the public so that our mission is clear to all. Our goal is a subset of districts on the planet, period.

2. To fulfill the promise of transparency we made to the communinity during our original discussion regarding our participation in PC. This also ties back to our stance on neutrality.

Also, to be clear, Bojo's School of the Trades does not have the same stance on neutrality as DUST University. By taking such a hard stance on neutrality DUNI may in fact be making things more difficult for itself but we have a vision we want to fulfill...and we won't let the difficulties of our mission deter us from our goals.

We've staked a claim and we will do it again if the region changes. If organizations or individuals want to support us because of what we're trying to accomplish that's completely up to them. If they want to attack we will defend. If the claimed districts are taken we will take them back unless WE deem it to be counter to our mission. We will continue to support the community at large regardless of what the future brings.

Please, as if they would be able to coordinate anything worthwhile anymore.

A corp's ability to field 8 people means nothing when it's a planet we're talking about

the Federation Of Small Corporations will help defend for free.

Speaking of impswarm, I personally don't see any reason they can't be involved in this, but I didn't come up with it either.

PFBHz does what PFBHz does, and we don't have an official stance on the subject

You cant just claim a planet that isnt gonna work
especially a planet that might be ideal for a corp/small grp

Also as others have stated u should wait a while and let the dust settle a bit before looking to do anything AND i know D-UNI has a stance on being neutral but ya that **** wont work with the limited space available

The best chance u have of pullin this off is gettin in bed with one of the bigger groups after land been grabbed and **** has been settled a bit after the mad rush. U have to think about ur main goal which is to train players so u have to think whats best for ur students and if breaking that neutral stance somewhat and making a deal with a bigger group means u can provide the necessary training to ur students then so be it.

Just openly coming out and claiming a planet is wrong and the region is quite possibly too small for u to just be handed a planet free of charge.

PS: That dont mean u go get extorted left and right tho lol <3 Beers & SoTa
