Wiyrkomi Honor Guard (RP Corp, Caldari)
« on: 02 Jun 2012, 06:20 »

So, most people probably already know a little bit about the Honor Guard but I figured I should make a full topic about it.

The Wiyrkomi Honor Guard is an RP-centric corporation, that means that RP is central to everything we do and nobody gets in that doesn't RP. This means that we will likely be a small corp, but we'll be a closely knit corporation with members who are all role playing with each other and enjoying being in a corp together.

We will be moving into Faction Warfare soon and working on anti-piracy activities. We do missions as a corp regularly and are now developing a small industrial core to provide cheap ships and modules for corpies!

For anyone interested in more information pertaining to the Honor Guard, feel free to look us up in-game, visit our website, read our IGS foundation statement or contact me!

I want to extend complete gratitude and praise for Ken, who is playing a character in the Honor Guard.

Completely without any provocation from myself or other corpmates and to my complete surprise this morning, I awoke to a mail containing a video. This video is amazing! It was designed by Ken for the Honor Guard and basically details exactly what led to its formation.

Ken, you're awesome and thanks so much!

Thanks, Mal. :) Was fun to make, but it's really just a remix. Wish I had the talents of Kyoko or some of the other outstanding video producers in the RP community.  :cube:

If anyone is looking for a Caldari pewpew home both built and run on RP with enthusiastic leaders and a tightly-knit core membership, please check out the Honor Guard.

Nicely made. Kuddos, Ken.

Negative factor; it's a State propaganda-piece, as allways bitching about events they brough on themselves, crying about consequences to their own stupidity and glorifying an act of "sacrifice" that was anything but. Well, in the universe of EVE, all of that is normal.

Good luck with your corp, Malcolm.

That seems like a bit of an overreaction to me..

Just an opinion. Ignore and move on, or challenge and debate. (May want to do that in a different tread though.)

It's a recruitment video, of course it's viewable as propaganda.

However, can we please keep negativity of that nature out of the thread? That's a viewpoint I can understand a Federal character having, but it's hardly something to bring into OOC.

Thanks.

Oh, why yes, of course it is.  8)

Brilliant, right?  What a wonder, that Caldari way of thinking.  ;)

Gallente to the left of them!  Gallente to the right of them!  Gallente behind them!  Volley'd and thunder'd!

I'm a little worried about the video, honestly. For reasons other than the above-stated opinion on the Caldari mindset.

What's the video supposed to do? As a recruitment piece for a corp I'm assuming that providing info about that corp is desired. It does none of that.

Towards the end we get the corp name and an emblem, and a bit later after that, the "recruitment is open" message. Great, so we know three things.

It's a Pro-Caldari corp.
It's named Wiyrkomi Honor Guard.
It's recruiting.

Other than that the video is very much a Pro-Caldari possibly Anti-Gallente piece with generalized themes in it, it really don't tell us much about the corp it was made for; what do they do, who leads, where do they live, what do they want, am I fit to join?

It's very well made, but appears to have missed the point, unless I'm the one who don't get it /o\

I still don't get what there is to be worried about. So you disagree with the choice of patriotic elements for a patriot corporation, cool, it's your good right.
