**** Incoming Transmission ****
From: Johnathan Sanders
To: Prospective members
Subject: Recruitment


As my colleague, mr. Henderson indicated, recruitment is temporarily suspended to by invite only while we work on improving our current assets. This may take some time. A final few applications remain.

Mr "Thor of Asgard",
Your application reads as some form of science fiction novel. I am not certain if this is a practical joke, but if not I'd have to refer you to Cryer instead. Cloning, and a lifespan of over 2 centuries? Extra-galactic travel? I'm not certain I am comfortable with such... curiosities in the Guild. It could draw the interest of unscrupulous individuals, which would endanger other guild members needlessly.
Thus your application is denied.


Mr. Roberts,
I can well understand the desire for doing away with the redtape. Unfortunately my own position doesn't always allow for it, yet within the Guild we just go by a few guidelines. You say you fly a Shire class transport... This could potentially be an issue, if you intend to use it on one of our most frequented routes, the Java/Berlin or Freistadt/Narita run. Kusari takes a dim view on Bretonian vessels in it's systems, even when they fly under the Guild's colors.
Second, I'm not entirely sure if BowEx would enjoy seeing one of those Shires in IMG's hands. But given you say you personally own the vessel, there'd not be much they could say against it. Legally, the Guild is allowed to operate any commercially available transport within Bretonia.
I'll accept your application, however, I must request that you refrain from using the Shire class transport within Kusari house space. The IMG's ability to operate efficiently depends on the various houses looking favorable upon our organization, using Bretonian vessels within Kusari and vice-versa would create friction needlessly.

Regards,
- Johnathan Sanders, on behalf of the Independent Miners Guild

Today i participated in a convoy from Tau23 - To Berlin - to Omega-7, where mined the silver, and the convoy then collapsed... so i would want an invite to IMG, i've been told i have a right for that. So if you please...

Howdy there!
After a bit of searchin' around the Barrier, a comrade of yours, Doug Myers said I should apply, and here I am. I had a few mining transports in the past with various of you folks, and decided that it would be more profita... I mean, suitable life for me, if I could fly me old transport ship under your flag. My rusty Heron lived through a lot of tough situations, but we're both capable enough to survive, so if ya want a good transport pilot, you know where to find me!

5th cycle of august 819 As.


Dear Johnatan, I am sending you this letter on behalf of myself. Sorry I could not use the neural net from where I am, not that it was unavailable, they restrict me to use the network for ''my safety'' apparently. I just hope my letter don't end up in an incinarator or worst in a rodant pet shelter. Anyway, I am kind of stuck at the Psychiatric department of the trauma module at the Jakarta station. While the personel there declared partially recovered, they were not kind ennof to give me a ticket out of that place. I mean, there is no unlocked neural net terminal, decent meal, the wall all gray, it smell the nursery all the time and there are very litle window which all face toward that blue mass they call a planet.

Anyway, I beg on you to find me a transport to go anywhere that is not here. Then perhaps we could talk about how I ended here. It just happened that one day I woke up in this pit, I think I was druged then moved here because of the events that occured I think around 2 hecta cycle ago. Since they said I could go, they also mentionned that I must be gone within 30 cycles (1 traditional month on spheres) else they will send me as a trainee to the janitor department and sign a contract for 4000 cycles.. thats over 10 years of washing toilets and other nasty stuff ! "DO SOMETHING OF MY LIFE" the psychiatrist advisor told me that to give a reason to his -OFFER- which is not one but a darn evilish punishment!

I want to know what happenend to Gene starwind, Mr henderson, Malfina Korzick and all the other that really matter to me back then. One last thing, I am sincerely sorry if my grammar was either poor or execrable, you know my Campbridge Days a far aways now..

Please answer me by mail, or head to jakarta direcly before the 4th cycle of setember 819 AS...

Sincerely,
[font=Times New Roman]Desari, Ian

Primary Information:

Name: Ranald "Randy" Gordon
Age: 38
Citizenship: Bretonian

Biography: Ranald Gordon is a man with few values. He is loyal out of necessity, but not to a fault, knowing that loyalty and persistence pay off in the long run. He's ruthless towards rivals and enemies, but not unpleasant, using back-door favors and subtlety to out-compete and out-maneuver them, as opposed to blatant aggression. He has a smile that rarely meets his eyes, save for with close friends and acquaintances. He values himself, his close friends, his work and the unreachable goal of satisfying his itch for credits and wealth. He was raised in Bretonia, on Cambridge, born to a scientist and a Green Front activist. As an act of subconscious rebellion against his idealistic parents, he set his sights on the capitalist dream early in life. After college, he spent close to a decade working for companies on Cambridge and New London. Goal-oriented and ambitious, his education and resources went to finding a way to get in on what he perceived to be the "action" of interstellar trade. Witnessing the way that, even for space pilots, most corporations treated their employees like ants, he looked to the space between the houses for his niche.

When he heard of the IMG, and its lucrative trade runs, the relative independence of its workers, and the myriad employment opportunities, he funneled his resources into getting enough flight sim time and credentials to pave his way into employment.



Secondary Information:

Outline the Independent Miners Guild goals: To mine and exploit the resources where the Houses are too fearful to tread, to trade these resources with the Houses, to maintain the independence of affiliated miners and traders from the encroaching influence of the Houses, and to protect the aforementioned operations from pirates and assorted scum, with force if necessary.

What can you contribute while inside the Guild ? My feel for money and trade, among other things. I was educated on Cambridge, so I have my fair share of knowledge and aptitude to throw around. I can't shoot too well, but if you're looking for talkers, I can do that well enough.

Which are your personal reasons for joining the Guild ? Also, which IMG Department would you like to be part of ? I figure, house-interference in the gears of industry isn't healthy. I'd rather work for a company, independent of most of House influence, in which I can grow and prosper, and help my company grow and prosper, without some Queen or Kanzler breathing down my neck. Given the choice, I'd like to participate in the trade department foremost, though the exploration/research department would be alright as well.

How long do you play in the server? Have you ever been of other player factions? Been around since '08, near as I reckon. At various times worked with CR, Zapp's (I think it was his) from-scratch IMG indie group last summer, a few other little things which never really took off.

Have you ever been sanctioned? If yes, please provide links to all your sanctions: Don't think I have, AFAIK.

Primary Information:

Name: Rainer Wike
Age: 25
Citizenship: Bretonian

Biography: Rainer was born at Planet Leeds, Bretonia. His mother is Dottie Harriette, who's working for the Bowex as an accountant. The father was Einar Wike, a Rheinlander immigrant, who was in the Rheinwehr, but he was MIA, when his wing disappeared in the Omega sector. Einar went to Bretonia where he met with Dottie.

Rainer is proud for his rheinlander roots and always wanted to be a pilot one day, however his father forbade this. In his scool years, Rainer studied the current situation of the governments and he decided not to be a slave who's under influence of any goverment. His father died when he was 20. Dottie understood his son's situation and she wanted a brighter future than a worker. Rainer went away from home and joined a mercenary faction in Bretonia. He learned fast how to handle fighters, actually it's in his blood as a son of a Rheinwehr pilot.

Five years later, he wanted to be a part of something bigger than a mercenary group. He left bretonia and headed to the border worlds where he find the IMG and he decided to join the Guild as a member of the defense team.



Secondary Information:

Outline the Independent Miners Guild goals: Mine valuable materials in the border worlds, where corrupt companies under political influence don't dare to move. Supply bases with ore and other goods. Defend the border worlds from pirate/Outcast raiders.

What can you contribute while inside the Guild ? I worked as a mercenary before. I know how to fight against bombers and fighters, and I'm not afraid to pull the trigger.

Which are your personal reasons for joining the Guild ? Also, which IMG Department would you like to be part of ? I hate the system, where politicians have influence above all. I need a good independent team where can I work. My mother works for the Bowex, I know how hard to work for a company which is under control a government. I'd like to be a part of the Defence department, that's the only way where I can take advantage of my skills.

[sahebzada.sodhi]

Greetings Guild-masters!

Name: Rake Kaufman a.k.a Reikh
(Character Name: (IMG)K-OS )
Age: 23
Citizenship: Planet Manhattan


It's been 15 years since I first saw my Planet from the space above it. I remember how beautiful it looked. I still remember that excitement I had in me, the very first time I was in space. That was the day my father had finally decided to take me along on one of his trading journeys. He has been a trader with the IMG almost his entire life. He recently retired and has taken my mother to see all the places he has seen in his years and years of space travel.
He has been a happy man and our family has been well off. He has made many friends, explored many places and let's say- gathered a lot of credits. I have been able to complete my education from the best Institutes all around the Universe. I have completed my Combat training, Inter-space Commerce management, and I have also spent a lot of time in the hangar and on route with my father. So, I can deal with minor problems with the ship too.
Now 15 years later, when It is time for me to buy my own ship, to start my own life, I look at my father and I see that he has had no regrets.
THAT is most important for me. Whatever decisions I make today, I do not want to regret any later when I look back. Hence, I would have no reason, not to choose IMG.

I am filled with excitement, would love to explore the universe, and would love to make friends and money while I do so.

I would like to join the Trading Department for the following two reasons:
1. I would like follow my Dad's footsteps and see how life turns out.
2. Even though I am also interested in joining the Defence wing, I do not think that will be a good idea till I get some experience. After all, lives will be depending on me, and I wouldn't take chances in that area.

While working with the Trading department, I intend to help IMG grow as a community however I can. I will always be available when the Guild-Masters, or a fellow Miner needs me.

I hope that my application is accepted. I am eager to join the Guild.
