Welcome to Serenity Enterprises!
Heres just some basic stuff you should know about the corp to get us started.
Name: Serenity Enterprises
Ticker: SEN
Location: Bourynes VII - Moon 2 - University of Calle School
Now, down to business. Ish.
First off, I have implemented a coorporate tax at 2.5%. What this means is that 2.5% of any bounty or mission reward you recieve over 35000 ISK, will be deposited into the corporations wallet. This is currenlty a 'working figure' so if you feel that the number is unfair or otherwise incorrect, please tell me so, and well work it out. Remember I'm just about as new at this as you are.
As for corporate 'jobs'. This is mostly a do-it-yourself corporation. Most of your work you'll do for yourself without the corporations involvment. The corps function will be to provide help and support should you need it. However, since a corporation does in fact, need to function, members will from time to time or when the need arises, be asked to help out in corp jobs. These jobs are done for the corporation. However, though a portion of the income will go to the corp, a percentage will given to the jobs participants as 'payment', depending on the work done by the member.
As for general funding, I will not ask for any non-job or tax payment. If you wish to donate, it is deffinately appriciated. However do not feel obligated to, it is up to you. Right now, I am personally funding the corporation and am fully willing to continue taking that responsibilty myself. If you would like to donate, anything from cash to old equipement, parts, or even old ships would be appriciated. Again however, do not feel obligated to do so. If you need the cash or equipment, by all means, keep it or sell it yourself. In fact, The corp or myself personally, am more than willing to extend a loan should you be needing something sooner than you can afford it. You really want the new ship, but cant afford it quite yet? Bought that new ship but cant afford to fully outfit or insure it yet? Ask for help and I'll see what we can do(within reason of course, I want to help, but only if I or corp can afford, we've got our own bills to pay afterall. Don't however feel like you shouldn't ask just cus I said that. We'll work something out. ) We are all here, after all, to help each other. Lastly in the spirit of being helpful and donating, some of our members have started delving into manufacturing, as such if you would like to help out(remember you dont have to, strictly voluntary) by donating any surplus minerals(from reprocessing loot for example), it would be greatly appriciated.
Alright, what next...
The corporate hanger. There is a corporate hanger located at our Corp HQ in Bourynes. To access it, click the 'Corp Hanger' button in the bottom right of the screen(when docked at the station of course.)
First off, you are all free to give or take from any hanger you have access to. For the most part, I don't care what you take or add, nor do I require that you ask for permission or even keep me informed, with a few exceptions. If you take or contribute a large quantity of items, or think the items are particularily note-worthy, than I ask that you inform me if you take or add them.
Secondly, the ships. The ships are considered to corp property. Sort-of. You are free to take them and use them as your own. However, I only ask, that if you take a ship, you inform me via eve-mail. Also, I ask, if possible, when your 'done' using the ship(if it's still alive, if you blow it up, dont worry about it, keep the insurance money, if you like, you paid to have it insured after all) I'd ask that you return it to the corp hanger instead of selling it off. Now, there are again, a few exceptions. Firstly, shuttles. I don't care what you do with them, and dont worry about bringing em back or anything, just sell em when you get to your dest and keep the ISK. The corp keeps the hanger well stocked with shuttles, so use em as you like, no need to inform me or anything. Secondly, the corp hauler. This isn't a regular ship you can just take to keep. I'd like it if you only use if you need to do one-time or similar short-use hauling.
Thirdly, divisions. You may notice that there are several 'Divisions'(Modules, Ammo and Drones, Skillbooks, etc) within the corp hanger. They are here to organize, and delegate acces to, the hanger. They should all be self-explanatory. If you aren't sure, just throw it in the Modules hanger. I organize and sort all the gear regularly anyway.
Next, roles. For now, I will not be delagating any roles or positions in the corp. Were small enough now, I'm taking full charge and responsiblity for all facets of the corporation. If we start to expand however, and/or the need arise, I will delegate positions as I see fit. Note, this is not a power trip, I just don't think we need those complications right now. Plus, frankly, there are more possible positions than we have members right now.
The only rules and regulations are that I do not want members actively PVPing. I do not want to deal with having enemies right now, nor having a way on our hands, we are not equiped for either right now, so I will not tolerate you starting a fight. If however, your attacked, then you are of course allowed to fight back(in fact, give em hell for me). Also should the opportunity arise, you are of course entitled to revenge.
Also, in the spirit of open helpful nature of the corp, if you have any questions about how things work, feel free to ask(I'll answer best I can, though I don't know much myself, frankly.). Any subjective info(ie, financial data) that isnt expressly private I will make public to anyone who asks for it. To start off, it cost me approx 4.8mil isk to get this corp up and running(1.5mil start-up fee, and 3.3mil for the first months office rent.) I also put another 1.6mil into the corporate wallet to get the ball rolling, per-se.
Also, if you havent been informed already, our corp has a website/forum: serenityeve.proboards79.com/index.cgi
Once you've been accepted into the corp, I ask that you head over and register there. About registration:, you may register with any user name. However, I ask that you set your display name to your in-game chars name. Also, your portrait should be your Eve portrait. If you don't know how to do that, just tell me and I'll set it up for ya. I also request that you read up rules sections for each forum as well as keep up-to-date with the news as best you can.
Finally,
Everything I've said here is negotiable, nothing is set absolute yet. In fact, I sincerely encourage you to make known any problems or disagreements you have regarding the way I run this corp. Also, I welcome any thoughts or suggestions of any kind. In fact, any and all input would be greatly appriciated!
