Who should I be?

Hi All!
Just plunked down 2 years worth of playtime and was wondering if there is a breakdown of how many players are what (Serco etc).
Would it help to "balance" one side or the other?
Thanks,
Fluke

Serco are usually, but not always, the fewest.

I a Pirate but also a Serco as it is right now I have not tanked my Serco faction. Meaning if you become a Serco I would be one less Pirate you would have to worry about. :D

But if you became itani well you could get hurt depending on if you pay my a-hem "tolls" or not.

Seriously though the serco are the most under populated Nation in VO and we would love to have some more.

GRAIG DaOne _ Itani

I'll ask you to join the serco now cause because the lack of players in this nation make the game pretty unbalnced ( even with a pratically Serco/UIT alliance... )

PS: prepare yourself to see my name in RED on your screen =p ( you'll understand later... ) hehehe

hope to see ya in game

Thanks for the info. My initial character is UTT.
But I could have an "alter ego" Dr. Fluke- Mr. Fluticus(since I'm only @ level 1).

Buhahaha! (evil laugh)

I second "Darth Brooks".

Uh... there's a Serco/UIT alliance? I don't think so....

Yah… Serco scum are not welcome in UIT space!

well… maybe cp but thats it.

I'm welcome in UIT space?! Maybe grudgingly, I suppose. I sometimes forget that I tanked my UIT standing in the first week of release, and just barely botted it up so I could dock. Hmm... when I get my internet back, I should probably work on that... at least get it to positive numbers, I think.

Definitly serco, we need all the help we can get look at the cargo capture stats that will show you what I mean!

Crippled: Now you can dock, grab a Behemoth and dock at one end of their empire. Take the longest trade route you can find for the largest number of goods. Voila - standing.

Most UIT Procurement runs are about 2 jumps.(It's not a real big "empire").

go to versai.
take the LONGEST bulk deliver mission you can find (with luck to giera)
better standing than 2 jump procure.

There's a UIT station in Verasi?
Apr 08, 2005 Spellcast link
ok, get it out of azek then, the corporations are part of the uit technically :)

it works even better if you can fly in both serco and itani space, because then you can take a mission from arta to deneb and it thinks you are going 13 odd jumps to get there. instead you cut actoss sercoland and only do about 7.

Actually working for some of the sub-factions from an early stage can be great for a PvE(trade/mining/botting)type, and a PvP type too, some of the considered great ships in-game are offered by sub-factions, for both purposes.

There should be a guild named:

The Grapes of Wrath

The guild would only be for Itani or Serco pilots who find that the whole hatred thing is pretty boring.
