All members of Ascendance are required to take part in at least 3 alliance strategic or peacetime fleets each month. Most members do many more than 3, but 3 is the minimum activity level we will accept. Must have Strats for Peace or others to count. Refer to Atrum’s Monthly stats for any changes. We count what Atrum counts.
We are currently counting Peacetime PAPs as well as Strategic PAPs towards the activity requirement until further notice
There are no exceptions to the activity requirement. This is a very lenient requirement that leaves plenty of room for IRL issues. If you are having trouble finding time to play EVE and participate in the corporation, consider applying for Leave of Absence, or LOA. More details can be found on the Internal Affairs Policy Page >> https://wiki.ascee.net/en/ascee/ia/policies/IA_Policies
A PAP (or participation link) is used as a way for us to see how many fleets you are going on. PAPs are automatically credited to your account when you join and participate in a fleet that was pinged out.
Any fleet pinged on Jabber is eligible to receive a PAP.
Q: I joined the corporation on the (19th, 27th, 31st, 2ed, 5th, whatever) of the month! When will I need to meet the requirements?
A: Nope. Only pilots who were present for the ENTIRE CALENDAR MONTH are considered. Example: Pilot joined Ascendance on July 2nd, 2024. This pilot will had to have completed 3 PAPs by the final day of August before midnight EVE time (before the EVE time day rolls over to September 1st) as August was the first whole month that the pilot was in the corporation.
Q: I have like 192 alts in the corp! Some of them can't even fly a combat ship? Are you going to kick my alts?
A: No. The PLAYER ACCOUNT is what is monitored, not individual characters. As long as you are attending fleets on any Ascendance character you own it will count. If you are able to multibox pvp characters you will receive 1 paplink for each of your characters in fleet towards your forum account.
Q: How do I view my paps?
A: https://fleets.gnf.lt/dashboard is where to check paps, also what auto captures the fleet.
Q: I see the terms PAP's and StratPAP's being thrown around. Is there a difference? Is one type of fleet less valid than another (mining fleet vs home defense for example), or are all PAPs equal when it comes to participation requirements?
A: Strategic paps are paplinks that count towards the alliance strategic objectives. Peacetime(PCT) paplinks are usually more fun fleets and roams.
Q: I have a question that is not answered here.
A: Please ping the Internal Affairs team by using @iaofficer on the ASCEE Discord for more assistance.
