EVE character - Aiee Takie
Your preferred nick/name - Hieu(Hugh)
TTI Division (or major occupation if unsure) - D'Anconia Mining
Your (approximate) age - 28
Timezone in the world - Pacific Standard Time or GMT- 8
1) What are your unique characteristics that set you apart from most people? (your views, achievements, etc):
I do my part to contribute and work hard at it. I'm goal oriented and hate laziness with a passion. There's so much to do in the world and not enough time to do it all. While most people abhor education during the college years, I continually educate myself. Again, so much knowledge to be had and not enough time to know it all. I like to know how to do things, if I have no knowledge of something. I make an effort to go and educate myself. I'm also a believer in planning things out ahead, being proactive and having things ready is better than being reactive and running around like a chicken with its head cut off. I believe people who work hard should be rewarded accordingly and the people who seek to take that away from somebody should be caned or die in a fire.
2) Why are you playing EVE?
Since I was a child, technology was my hobby. Over the years it developed into a fascination for computers and video games. One game was released in the form of Wing Commander Privateer, an old space sim that let you zoom through the universe to save itself from perpetual doom while being a trader. That game peaked my interests and imagination, so, EVE is the future update to my childhood fantasy. EVE lets me assume any role and venture freely its universe. I play EVE because every other MMO lacks what EVE has. Content and A truly Player driven economy and I find that empowering. Everyone wants to be successful and EVE will let you be if you have the motivation. While I wait for the day for humans to colonize the stars, I'll get a head start and help shape EVE on my computer.
3) Why are you applying to Taggart?
Taggart has a philosphy to focus on the individual for performing well and a side quib about working together to make money for you while it benefits the corp. A philosophy which really interests me. As an individual, I like to be rewarded for the work and effort I put in, especially if the case calls for something I am not accustomed to, out of the norm situations. I'm also a team player, an individual that does great, wow. Many individuals who do great but perform as a team, now thats awesome. I'm tired of the usual group communism for the glory of the whole and we'll take this chunk from you and pay your dues. Taggart seems like a very well structured Corp, every one knows their purpose and excels at it with the freedom to do what each individual wants. I'd like to take part in the Corp and contribute my time and effort so we can all make out with some money. The information I read was enough to make me apply. Speaking to some members in the chat channel made me want to apply to the corp that much more. On top of that, Taggart is an icon corp to me, after all, its a philosophy I believe in.
