Being a newbie, that is interested in RP. How would you get involved in these events?

From FAQ, which is stickied on top of the forum:
How do I find an event? - You can find an event many ways which I will list below:
1. In Game news (We cannot list a specific event in the news however we can leave hints). 2. Scope News (Same reason as above.) 3. Being at the right place at the right time. (Yes sounds hard but it is realistic.) 4. Getting hints from previous events you have had the pleasure of being in.
Now to clarify why we can not advertise events on a grand scale is because 500 players out of EVEĘs 10,000+ Player base arriving in one system will mean the system node crashes and thus the event failing. Yes we like lots of players to attend an event but there are limits.
Plus when we design an event we always design it from an IC (In Character) perspective which basically means that we donĘt think OOC (Out of Character).
For example if you are playing a Amarrian business man who wishĘs to seek revenge on the person who stole your shipment of data pads. The Galactic News would hardly be interestedą so you would just seek help through local channels.
So as you can see from an IC or OOC view it isnĘt very realistic or practical to advertise events through the news.

One way to improve your chances of finding events when they're happening is to ensure you're in your race's ingame chat channel (they're listed in the preset channels). Race specific events often get kicked off in there by ISD people (green text), or you may find people talking about an event in there as it progresses. Another, perhaps less easy suggestion, is to join a Corp that's got a roleplay swing to it.
I have seen ISD bring in participants from the NPC corp channels before - the Gallente election vote rigging cargo transport events had them in the Centre for Advanced Studies channel getting us involved, for example.

Edited by: Alex Jerusalem on 14/05/2005 15:56:48 I've just noticed there's an Events channel ingame (another one of the preset channels available) - no idea if it's a useful place to be as it's taken me 8 months to notice it and join.
