    ISS is actually an alliance. I think you are talking about the corporation ISS Navy, which is a member of ISS alliance. But anyways, ISS Navy would probably be a worthwhile corp to join. One of my buddies has been in ISS for quite a while now and I haven't heard any complaints from him.

    Your character should still be there with all his items. I don't think CCP deletes any good standing characters.

    I was away for over a year and came back to Eve without any issues. Your characters and stuff are saved indefinately.

    I find that most ISS ships don't drop much of interest when destroyed, they are mostly cheap ships with cheap fittings. At least they didn't when we had an empire war against them a few months ago ::::02::

    Personaly I find ISS to be mostly a joke, specially the ISS navy. They talk big but in practice they can't even protect their own outposts from even smaller groups without relying on other alliances to do the fighting.

    If you are mostly interested in the non-pvp part of the game then they are probably an ok choice but if you want pvp you are better of joining something like Goonfleet or similar.

    The only way ISS ever gets kills are in huge numbers, they're bad PvP'ers and even in those big numbers they get badly spanked.

    I do know a couple of people in the ISS Navy though, and they're pretty good guys, so if you join i'm sure you'll have fun. :)

    If you want easy mode, join BoB.

    BoB is invite only, and the only reason the simplemineded like yourself see it as easy mode is because we're simply that good at getting where we want to be.

    ISS is probably not a bad place to be if you previously have ahd little experience with aliiances out in 0.0. It's not the dogs' nads when it comes to pvp no, but there's plenty of good experienced pvp'ers in ISS to hand out tips that should be very welcome to anyone new to the 0.0 arena. You just gotta run into the good ones i guess.

    It was just a joke, i didn't mean to make fun of BloB... err BoB.

    Yeah i asked iss if i could join but they said i didint meet there req sp wise. So me and my scorp still are solo and quickley getting bored.

    Lets face it by yourself you cant fly into 00 space when all you got is the ship around you and the guns and ammo you carry.

    Really getting tired of shooting mobs in .5 space . Just not worth the money in ammo to kill them.

    If anyone has a good size corp 50 plus with stake in 00 space has well has fly ops TOGETHOR!

    Give me a hollor in game Maimer is the name.

    If your corp has members with the skills, you can form an informal alliance in some areas of 0.0.  Basically a "friendly" rating.  Then go in and find a spot to set up a POS and move your corp to 0.0.  My corp was set up in the middle of 2 other alliance soveriegn areas in 0.0 and never had any problem.  Access to 2 outposts and our own POS was a pretty decent deal.  Their alliance wars did not effect our Empire only players, and generally we didn't have to worry about PC rats except when big fleets came in and we would help join the fight generally on the defense.

    There's more then BoB and ISS in 0.0 ;)

    Most alliances aren't too bothered about skills if you've got the right attitude btw.
