Since all joining the same corporation or alliance would leave pilots wide open for war declarations, incursion runners remain in their corporations and alliances and instead affiliate themselves with various communities. Most communities operate in the same way: They have a public channel that anyone can join with all the information a pilot might need being available in their channel's message of the day. Fits are usually available through mailing lists or some other repository.

EVE University maintains an active Incursion Community of current members, alumni and their alts. This community is one of the oldest Incursion communities in EVE Online and is one of the only communities to run despite frequent war declrations. This near constant state of war along with a primary focus on teaching has lead to slightly different operating procedures compared to other communities. We also have roles that do not require any specific skills, roles that other communities simply don't need or want. See the [[EVE University Incursion Community]] page for more information.

While the incursions will spawn in a random constellation, the systems of a given constellation will always have the same type of sites.  There is only one requirement for a constellation to be a potential incursions constellation: it must have at least 6 systems in the same broad category of security status (high, low, or null).Ssome systems are also excluded from the ''"incursion rotation"'': these tend to be major [[Trade hubs|trade hubs]] and new player starter systems.

The mothership mechanic gives players some control over when incursions end. The different groups who run incursions don't always agree on what is the most desirable timing.
