More on getting know about members. It's just not fun play silently and communicate through only chat log. We do have occasionally organize small gatherings.

For those of you who are new players, it might takes a while for you to reach a level where you have satisfactory play style. Until then, you need to train.

Eve is all about preparation. Every battle has its own story. You might frequently lose fight during early stage because you have low SP but soon after you have enough SP, you will get your revenge. How you defined enough? Depends on who you are flying with. If you are solo, at Eve current state, you will takes a long time. That is why new players are more likely to join Brave Newbies, Pandemic Hordes or KarmaFleet. But for GMT +8, it is practically hard to play with them.

Here is the latest closeup battle video from one of RTAP corp player who involved in massive fight to take the 60M-TG who later been renamed as "Tapir Dojo". It marks one of good achievement for us, South-East Asian player as we mark our group presence in EVE.

Raging Tapir lost a dread but killed 15 Ishtars to make up the losses. Coalition wise we lost quite a lot but we know Goons can't even defend themselves alone in the area. Goons have Pizza's help them with Tengu's fleet before but got whacked by us. Finally, the called The Bastion and PL to show up save their last station in Querious at today's critical timer. Our numbers just can't match them so we have to keep our persistence.

Raging Tapir needs more members to help in Querious. We welcome any players. Since we are based in nullsec, based on our experience, it is very challenging for new players to join us if you have less than 8 millions SP. If you are new players, join our public in-game chat "Tapir Den" to ask for advise instead.

Raging Tapir is fighting to secure its area at this moment. Any veterans and old players are welcome.

Raging Tapir used to be in Wicked Creek during our time in Fraternity. (at that time we are known as HN-L). We live in J-9M7D pocket (where F-QQ5N, 1-7B6D). It is good space to fatten up your wallets. The downside is you have the risk of assets lockdown if your space fallen. The only escape plan is to move your assets to Curse which itself another risk of fighting Russian pirates. You need good plan to protect your logistic. Besides, you cannot bring out your carriers outside of the region without go through the gate since the distance from Curse to low-sec is more than 5 ly.

Most of the areas are dominate by Russians. Fraternity don't have enough discipline and plans to overcome them so Raging Tapir decides to move ourselves to Delve, searching for new alliance. Stranded with no alliance, we slowly try to build reputation but is hard for our corp to be accepted into any alliance because of our image. They see us as carebears because of our killboard. The downsides of being renters are you need to pay a huge sums or rent, no guarantee on income (cloaky campers), unlikely to get help from landlord, and frequent targeted by pirates.

We managed to get into another new born alliance called Skeleton Crew. Due to different TZ, and rather inexperience alliance leadership, the alliance only last for short period of time. During in Skeleton Crew, we improved PvP skills, organized our training plan, kept ratting and mining to build up our assets for future PvP.

A chance came when splinters of Skeleton Crew, who have good relationship with Darkness, created a new alliance. At that time, Goons invaded Delve, and the new created alliance saw opportunity in Querious because NC. renters decided not to pay their rent. The alliance needs good number and presence during SEA TZ (GMT +8) to capture systems. Due to diplomacy, we are able to secure membership.

We understand membership is just a starting point. We need to contribute numbers in PVP fleet. We encourage members to participating in Coalition CTA. Our killboard turned greens in short time. Some people might point out we are kill whore because we kills with big number but honestly, in Eve this days, you need numbers to secure your Sov. The killboard shows that we are contributing to the coalition. Honestly, you get the good feeling when you blow up Goons' Ishtar and PL's tengu. Our coalition push Goons and every time they nearly lost, they called PL to drop capitals and tengus.

However, presence during GMT +8 is low compare to US TZ and EU TZ. We will mostly be fighting Russians and they usually roam with 50-100 people. Raging Tapir aims is to keep recruiting members to level of at least match the even numbers to fight them.
