Corp symbol - A Snowflake
Maiden\'s Luxuries is a tiny neutral enterprise procuring, mining, transporting, and marketing. Low profile. RPing merchant minded. Real life comes first.

"Your play style/actions says a lot about who and what you\'re like in real life."

** You\'ll likely become frustrated with this corp CEO. Read their biography why **

This CEO believes a corp CEO should be able to fund their corp themself .... not off their members backs. No sales or fees here. All your items and rewards you get is yours ... not to a corp bank. You mine/explore for yourself - not because a CEO told you to for the CEO\'s wealth gain. This corp isn\'t PLEX funded. And not a front for any other entity. RUN from seat.com users.

You buy a high class ship and fit it with expensive items. All paid with a credit card for PLEX. It is destroyed and you say \'Totally worth it.\'
Same as >>
You buy your car and deck it out with expensive auto parts and bling. All paid with loans. You wreck your car and say \'Totally worth it.\'

EVE is a time grinding game if you want to become renown.
You can buy PLEX to get ISK wealth.
You can buy skill injectors for training.
You can buy your blingy ships with PLEX.
You can buy ships/items for your killmails.
You can buy all those weekly \'free skin with merch\' offers you want.
You can listen hours to all those streamers and YouTube advice you want.
All that doesn\'t matter because tens of thousands of pilots are doing and had done that samething.
You can\'t buy time to become reknown in EVE.

"No one wants to get rich slow"
"Money is not just math. It\'s behavior"

This CEO remembers struggling in EVE for everything she earned. Felt alone for help sometimes. There are plenty of corps/alliances descriptions who offer a red carpet for you to join them. A same number will also use and treat you like a damn lap dog because you don\'t talk full-of-crap like they do and/or you\'re not good enough to be with them. Seems like the player base is more attracted to that last.

Seen a lot of promising players, corps, and alliances started and now gone in a decade. The Maiden\'s are still here.

Not accepting walk-in membership applications
An occassional \'Hello\' goes a long ways to make friendship.
Make friendship first then apply.
Must players would rather join a easier corp with a red carpet description of fake promises and rose petals than just to write an occassional \'Hello\' <it\'s true>

You decide if you want to succeed here. The corp CEO knows it\'s difficult and often questions each step on new stairs in real life. Sometimes it\'s damn hard alone. There are plenty of other corps and alliances who have the potential offering you more and can tell you what you should be doing for them. You left your former corp for a reason so don\'t bring their shit here how to do things.

When you players justify why you prey on and/or deceive other EVE players - you
justify it with long excuses. Guys in domestic violence classes talk just like that. They really do.

"Hello"
