Greetings,
I'm finalizing the steps for a new RPG corporation launch and would like to join an alliance prior to launching recruitment. Does anyone have a list of solid RPG Alliances that are accepting new corps?

It might help to describe what your new corp is about. What goals you have, what you can do, etc.

To be honest, you will likely have a hard time finding large and vibrant RP alliances (or any alliances really) willing to take on a brand new corp, especially if you havent started recruitment yet. I know EM is very, very cautious about which corps we allow in. Most alliances worth their salt will require an established track record for a corporation, with active pilots, before considering them for membership.

Crazy talk ;)
One of the primary tenants of the Ministry of the Void is to create a unique, entertaining yet challenging corporation to thrive in. We believe in rewarding members for their participation but not forcing anyone into a role they do not desire. By creating a rigid rank system and allowing advancement through in-game assignments, accomplishments and effort we strive to give members a fulfilling place to operate within EVE. We’re not about high member counts, we’re about giving everyone the chance to enjoy EVE in different ways. MINISTRY of the VOID is a corporation with environment.
We support a role-playing themed somewhere between 1984 and the Church. We are a religiously themed corp that mimics the structure and tenacity of a church on a crusade. The Ministry of the Void is seeking the one true god that lives within the Void. Current prophets believe that wormholes may hold the key to unlocking the gate to the holy realm. However the Sleepers re being heavily investigated as well. (OOC - it should be noted that we use this theme for fun and do not want real world religion/politics interfering)
Job Openings. We always post a list of open jobs/ranks/roles and the base conditions of requirement as well as the rewards that come along with the responsibility.
We welcome both new players and veteran players looking for a breathe of fresh air. Trial accounts are welcome but can not progress beyond Pledge without a subscription.
We operate two primary bases of operations. One in Amarr space and another in Minmatar Space.
New recruits will be assigned a mentor that will track the members progress, offer advice and if desired assign corp missions. For those interested the corporation offers contracts and assignments in order to earn rank progression within the corp. This is not a required process in order to be apart of the corp but it does offer its own rewards.
What do you get:
Monthly salary is paid dependent upon your rank within the corporation.
We’ll give you things to do besides mining ops and patrolling. We look to create ways for people to have fun in new and different ways.
We have fully supported ore buy back system and utilize mining buddy for large ops.
A well stocked Supply Depot to pull shop and gear from.
A ship and weapon request system.
Website with forums and guides. (www.chaosmandatory.com) * Site modification still underway
Responsive and competent leadership.
Recruitment FAQ:
We have no SP requirement and never will.
Informal interviews are held during the recruitment phase.
Limited API is required.
Interviews prior to promotions are mandatory.
Salaries are based off of rank and are not revealed to non-corporation members.
We do not support griefing but do support using guile and wits to gain advantage.
The corporation operates on EVE time, with future representatives for all time zones.

Makes sense of course but I figure I'll look non the less and at least gather a list of Alliances that i can work towards.

By all means, didnt mean to imply you shouldnt look. Merely dont be discouraged if its hard going at first.
And good luck of course :) EVE can always use more RP corps.

Would offer you to join I-RED, but it sounds like a Amarr based RP alliance would be more fitting.
Good luck.
-
This would depend on a few things, both IC and OOC, but I'm trying to put together a new alliance for smaller corps.
OOC, I can't fund the entire thing, so if you want to join, you would have to put some isk up for the creation fee, and wait until we have enough.
IC, Sai is anti-slavery, so she would need to know what your view on that is before inviting you.
Right now, I'll agree with John, someone like CVA might be a better bet.

There are some very different approaches to roleplay in EVE, so to help match you up it'd be good to know what roleplay means to you. If you were describing the "places" your people would roleplay and the sorts of things they'd roleplay, what would you say?
That said, there's not a huge amount of choice at the alliance level. I do immersionist roleplay, and as far as I'm aware there's only one alliance for that. That rather shapes my choices about corps and characters. If that's not a factor for you--and I'm guessing from your description that it's not--you have wider choice but you do have to ask what makes an alliance enough of a roleplay alliance for you.
-
There are probably set terms abound for the different styles of role-play but I'm not up-to-date on them. Essentially the corp is designed and run in full RP mode with OCC handled in separated forums and channels in game. Those the OCC in main channels are at first educated and then reminded and finally disciplined. The corp creates an environment for RP first and foremost. The alliance existing or to be built would have to have that as a main tenet I think and then each corp would self monitor and direct. I want to add a layer above and beyond the base mechanics EVE offers. By supports ranks, mentors and a back story I hope go give people a reason to log in besides a combat roam or a mining op.
My corporation does not align it's self with one particular race and has a base set of rules (located here for those interested http://www.chaosmandatory.com/canon/). These are still being fine tuned but we don't support scamming, griefing, slavery or racism. (both in or out of game ;)
I don't mind supporting the funding of a new Alliance but I of course would want to hear more.
I haven't started my recruitment yet because I want to have everything set for a big recruiting push. I hope my website at least demonstrates some level of commitment.

Does it make me a bad person because I want cross paths with one of your fleets in w-space and say something in local like "Oh thank Me that you finally found me! I've been waiting forever. Literally!"
-
Not at all my son. Forgiveness is the act of reminding oneself that you too are flawed. To forgive is to maintain the healing balance in one's own soul as well. Our Exploration Ministry Ships will always open a docking bay to the sinless and sinners alike. Just power down your weapons if you don't mind.

I used to play Sims and send countless hours torturing my sims. I'd build houses and set them on fire. I'd lock them in basements without food and watch them as they started to freak out and starve. Then I thought "Wow, God makes more sense to me now."

This post is fantastic.

I really like the concept of your corp. Its always good when someone tries something not directly connected to any of the major PF entities, or any PF entity at all.
Graanvlokkie would look at joining if he wasn't leading a small group of people out in wormhole space. If you ever start an alliance based on this concept contact me, my corp would think of joining.

That's certainly an option but I don't want to bite off more than I can chew too early. A ton of people start off with grandiose plans that rapidly die when they hit the paperwork wall of running a corp, let alone an alliance. There are a lot of interesting idea's to explore. Can an alliance support corps that are actually opposed because of race alignment or do you need to seek out and gather all the RP corps that haven't aligned with a race/faction?
-
An alliance made up of corps just based only on the fact that they are not alligned to any race/faction would not really work without something to keep them together.
Your corp idea gives off this "lone wanderers in the void searching for answers that cannot be found" feel, which is really what Graanvlokkie has been doing for the last year.

Yes very much so. The quest for the One True God really speaks to the unknowns of the game. Its the quest to discover and explore with a theme behind it. This could play simply into WH exploration which will be a significant aspect to the corp as well as investigating Sleepers in every way possible.
In my imaginations I kind of pictured an Alliance designed as different branches per corp so You could have corps the specialize in WH exploration or a Corp/brach that specializes in War (PvP) and of course the old standby of Industrial corps. the Alliance then organizes these corps into organized efforts that are RP themed based.

Let me know if you are planning on going this way any time in the future, and [ISPEC] would look at joining. I will make an approach IC. We are currently a small corp, living in a CL4 WH with a static CL4 connection, so sharing a WH with alliance mates is possible, or just having some like minded RP folk in some channels would be good.
