~~== [[File:Scanner_Payout_Program_Icon.png|64px|bottom|Scout Payout]] Scout Payout ==~~

~~=== Summary ===~~

~~WHC pays our scanners for signatures they bookmark and add to our mapper.~~

~~=== Explanation ===~~

Scanning is the lifeblood of wormhole life. We live and die by our knowledge of the connections around us. To promote good scanning habits, WHC pays a small, fixed percentage of its total weekly activity to anyone who bookmarks a signature and records it in our mapping tool. The payout is shared amongst those who scanned in any given week and is proportional to the number of signatures scanned. Scan more, and you get paid more. For new members who may not have the ships or risk tolerance to fly other PvE activities, scout payouts can be a meaningful way of bootstrapping one's wormhole career while also learning an invaluable skill. For veterans who already know the value and wish to give back, they may voluntarily decline to receive scout payouts by contacting a WHC Community Coordinator.

Note: It is convention at WHC for a scout who finds PvP content to receive an additional 50% of all loot dropped (often colloquially called a "Y" for historical reasons). This is unrelated and complementary to the Scout Payout for signature scanning. Pilots may receive both.

~~=== How to Use It ===~~

~~This service is provided automatically. Our tools keep track of who scans what, and the Buyback department pays out a sum weekly to anyone who has scanned in the WHC chain~~.

If you leave EVE for a while, it's responsible to put your modules, ammo, components, and other packaged items in [[Wormhole_Community_Services#Affordable_Suitcase_Program|your suitcase]] and hand it to your suitcase pilot. This is pretty easy, it takes next to no time and effort. For fitted ships, WHC offers the vacation storage program. You give your ships to WHC, we hold on to them for your vacation, then hand them right back afterwards. In the event that an eviction befalls WHC while you're on vacation, there's a group of people that you can rely on to ensure your ships don't fall into enemy hands.

Note: the Vacation Storage program has '''a maximum of two months'''. Please do not use this for taking extremely long breaks or for leaving EVE entirely for years. We will generally reject requests that have return times longer than two months (and explain this to you). If you create a short request and then just never come back, we will do our best to repeatedly get in contact with you both on your expected return date and again close to the two month deadline, but eventually we will have to sell off your stuff so that we don't just have a stock of unclaimed assets lingering in the hole. The proceeds of that will be reinvested into the University, so if you are planning on just getting rid of stuff, please just use [[Buyback]] or the WHC market channel instead.

=== How to Use It ===

Fill out the [~~http~~://~~eveuni~~.~~org~~/~~whc-vacation~~ Vacation Storage form], then contract your fitted ships to the <code>WHC Operations</code> corp with "Vacation" or something similar in the contract description.
