Rules and Guidelines

In addition to the Eve University Rules, the following community-specific guidelines apply:

General

• Fly only what you can afford to lose.

• Members undocked in and around the community are highly encouraged to be in the Standing Fleet or special purpose fleet for their safety and the safety of other HSC members.
  • Only members of EVE University or the alts of members of EVE University are allowed to join the Standing Fleet.
  • If you are going AFK then you should drop fleet.

• We strongly recommend you get on mumble, get involved in chatting, asking questions etc. EVE is not fun alone. The best ship in EVE is friendship, after all! Make friends, it'll be a lot more fun, and you'll learn more!

PvE

• PvE loot is property of the group who agree to rat or run sites together, and should be distributed as per prior agreement of the group.
• The first person at a site (combat,event, data, relic, etc.) is considered the "owner" and Unistas are forbidden from contesting sites from other Unistas or our allies (aka "blues").
• For sites occupied by non-blues, please remember that we are the nice guys in New Eden. Whilst it is acceptable within the game mechanics to race against non-blues, it does not fit with this image.
• Mission rewards should not be shared with the main HSC Standing Fleet. If you are running missions as a group, you must form a separate fleet in order to share the standings.
• Mission fleet members are advised to dock up when WTs are identified near to HSC. This could be to assist local PvP efforts or to secure high price ships. If you can assist in the fight, standby to join the standing fleet and await announcements in HSC chat or mumble.

Communications

• Members active in campus should be in Mumble, even if you don't intend to talk (if you are hearing impaired, let us know).
  • Campus communications are by default “OPEN COMMS”, so you may join mumble if you are not actively participating in HSC activities, however you MUST follow combat comms when they're active.
    • Open comms are usually only suspended for two reasons:
      • Someone calls “Break Break” or "Check Check" over mumble, which indicates a new threat or that a fellow Unista is in immediate danger or has important information to announce. Please allow the pilot to speak.
      • "Combat Comms” is called over mumble. This indicates a fight is underway and non-combat related chatter should pause for the duration. Prolonged combat should be moved as soon as is practical to the HSC PvP sub channel in order to leave the main comms open for general learning.
      • When first entering a community mumble channel. please wait briefly before speaking (unless it is very urgent) to ensure "Combat Comms" is not in operation.
  • If you are operating in a fleet when there is a lot of general chat in comms, you may wish to move to a separate Mumble sub-channel where it will be easier to communicate with your fleet.

Standing Fleet

Standing Fleet is a form of fleet specific for each campus and aims to provide better communication between pilots within the same region of space (such as local gankers spotted nearby). Each member of the fleet can freely do their solo or group tasks, such as PvE, mining, PvP etc since there is no specific purpose of the standing fleet itself, but in times of emergency, the fleet can transformed into a Quick Response Fleet in order to assist a fellow capsuleer in distress, to repel any hostile entity or to defend the space and assets of the University.

Setting up a Standing Fleet

If you cannot find the HSC Standing Fleet in your Fleet Finder, ask in Mumble or HSC chat channel if there is one. If not, or you get no answer, you are advised to set up a standing fleet and then share the advert of the standing fleet in HSC chat to inform others it exists, so they can join you. Also note that anybody can set up the Standing Fleet. Being Fleet Boss is not the same as being Fleet Commander (FC) (Check: Fleet Boss).

Standing Fleet Boss

The fleet boss is not "in charge" or the "FC" of the fleet. Fleet boss is simply an administrative role. The main job of the fleet boss is to manage the fleet such as setting the message of the day, setting free-move and moving people in and out of Fleet/Wing command positions when asked to do so. Also, they are responsible for adding/removing new Wings and Squads as needed.

Passing Fleet Boss to Another

If you are ready to leave fleet and are the current boss, you must pass the boss position to another in fleet first. Ask for volunteers in the Fleet Chat and/or Mumble. Make every reasonable effort to pass boss to someone who is active. Once you have your volunteer, pass fleet boss to them by right clicking their name in chat or the fleet window, followed by a left click on "Make Boss".

Accepting Fleet Boss

If boss is passed to you, either as a result of you volunteering or being "ninja bossed", the Fleet Advert window will pop up on your screen. Verify the Advert settings are correct as specified above and select the "Submit" button. This will update the Fleet finder and enable other members to find and join you. You can save the fleet setup from the Fleet windows setting menu for future use, if you have not done this before.

What can I do in the K-Space Community?

• Learn! To find upcoming classes and events, regularly check the Scheduled Classes, Combat Fleets and Corporation Events sections of the Uni forums, and the in-game Calendar (found by clicking on the clock in the bottom left of your screen).

PvE Missions

• Missions are available from agents in the various stations located in the star systems near Stacmon. Missions give ISK, loot, and Loyalty Points (which can be redeemed at the agent's station store.
• Mission Fleets invite new players to join in doing higher level, more lucrative missions.
  • If you don't have the power needed to help with high level combat missions, you can also join the team as a salvager, just flying one pocket behind and looting the wrecks. You can make millions this way as a lot of loot is dropped by the enemies.
• The Epic Arc Mission, "The Bloodstained Stars", a fifty episode level I PvE adventure, is available from the Sisters of Eve agent in nearby Arnon.

• There are many mission agents in Amygnon. Remember to make a separate fleet before you run any missions in a group. If you are doing missions solo, we recommend you stay in the HSC Standing Fleet, but remember not to share mission standings/rewards with the fleet.
  • Amygnon VI - M1 - Garoun Investment Bank Vault has a Level 4 Security Agent.
  • Amygnon VII - M10 - Aliastra Warehouse has a Level 2 Distribution Agent.
  • Amygnon VII - M21 - Aliastra Warehouse has a Level 3 security Agent and a Level 4 Distribution Agent.
  • Amygnon VIII - M5 - Garoun Investment Bank Vault has a Level 4 Security Agent (& Locator Agent)

Hauling

NOTE: When undocked, keep a close eye out for War Targets or suicide gankers. Stay aligned to station as much as possible. Keep checking Dscan. Watch out for combat probes if you are in a mission pocket, somebody might be scanning you down to attack you. Assess any newcomer that lands on grid with you, and if you're not sure, warp out.

You may also want to look at Alt Hauling, a way of using a second (non-UNI) character to do your hauling, thus avoiding problems with War Targets.
