Killboard: http://www.noir.pinacoderm.com/killboard

About us:
Noir. is a professional mercenary corporation specializing in small gang warfare. Noir. has completed an impressive number of successful contracts for its age and has become established as one of the premier units available on the market. We have developed a reputation for guts, high activity, high damage, and relentless pursuit of our targets.

Corp leadership is stable, experienced, committed, and has created an environment which allows other passionate, skilled pilots to realize their full potential within the corp. We have a strong US and EU contingent and look forward to welcomeing more Pacrim pilots to grow our family and smother targets day and night.

Now is your chance join an organization of other mature, highly-skilled players in a culture of professionalism and excellence. A corp which rewards personal initiative, teamwork, respect, and performance. A mercenary unit that operates in the spirit of that proud profession by paying pilots who deliver results on our contracts.

That is Noir.

What we're looking for:

• Extensive PVP experience and demonstrated performance
• Well developed knowledge of PVP mechanics and tactics
• A passion for high-level-small-gang PVP
• Self sufficiencyMaturityWork well in teams
• Smart and careful flying
• Patience
• A relentlessly aggressive attitude
• Specialize in a T2 ship and capable of flying T2 fitted battleships.

 Why should you join?

• We PVP. Alot. In fact, that's how we make ISK in this game.
• Pilots are paid based on their contract performance. 90% or more of a given contract fee goes right to the pilots. Why not get paid for doing what you love?
• Corporate leadership is competant, trust worthy, free of politics, and highly attentive to member input.
• Recognition is based on merit and activity, not politics.
• We have developed a very strong roster and established a reputation of excellence in the mercenary world.
• Fly with some of the very best and help turn the reputation into a legacy.
• Purpose. Having a contract means your PVP is actually accomplishing something besides providing you with 15 minutes of fun ganking macro haulers.
• Freedom. When we're off contract, you can do whatever you want, wherever you want so long as you dont do anything that would hurt the interests of the corp.
• Discounted T2 ships/equipment.
• Corp Controlled Vent server.

I love free publicity!

Big thank you to Massively for this article:
Massively article on Mercs in EVE

Grats on the Massively article!  Your corp looks awesome.

Good to see this. I've been in the same corp for ages, and all they're doing is steamrolling the north =P Sure, PvP is fun with em when I can do it. But I like in close fights rather than long range fleet battles. Pulse lasers and autocannons for me, thanks. I might have to look you guys up if I finally decide to leave my corp.

Noir. is currently on a R&R break for the holidays. If you're looking to join now is the best time as there won't be a delay while waiting for a contract to end.

If interested contact a Noir. recruter in game in the "Cafe Noir." channel in game or post an app on our forums.

Hope everyone is having a great Holiday season and a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Our R&R is over and we just got done celebrating our 1 year anniversary as a Mercenary Corporation in EVE and we've already racked up several contracts since the start of 2009... but we're still looking for quality PVP pilots. If you think you fit the bill give us a shout.

Word of warning: Because we are currently doing several back-to-back contracts you will likely have to wait for a contract to end before being allowed to actually join. We only accept new members between contracts.

Tip:
Don't apply saying you have years of PVP experience and then when we check killboards you have like 13 kills and 10 losses over your entire eve Career.

(true story)

Not saying anyone from MMORPG.COM has done so... but it's really a waste of your time for you to claim extensive PVP experience. We do background checks on every applicant. Even friends of current members.

Recruitment is still open.

Noir. just completed 2 weeks of contracts against the KFC (Kenny & Friends Coalition) and racked up over 15 billion ISK in hull damage and another 10-20 billion isk in cargo, module and rigs captured/destroyed.

During the course of the contracts we maintained a 95% or higher efficiency.

If you think you would fit in, give us a hollar.

Still seeking experienced PVPers who want their PVP to mean something and actually impact the game. Visit our site and drop an app if you're interested and a recruiter will be with you once it's processed.

Announcing the creation of Declarations of War, a new blog and podcast series brought to you by Noir.'s Ender Darklight.

The goal of this blog will to develop into a one stop shop for editorials and general Eve news. Stories will be approached from a general PVP perspective with the neutrality and professionalism Eve has come to expect from Eve's premier mercenary corporation. Content will update frequently and range from news stories, editorials, humor and more. Additionally, it will feature a wide array of contributors besides me.

We also plan on a weekly/bi-weekly Eve Podcast that would go along with the format and feel of the blog. This should be up and running shortly, with steady updates being posted to the blog.

Noir. is still recruiting qualified pilots.  To see what we're about please visit our web portal.

If you like what you see feel free to drop an application on our forums.  If you have questions about the corporation or want to talk to our pilots feel free to join our public channel "Cafe Noir."

Note: Recruiters will not give interviews until an application has been submitted on the Noir. forums accessed via our web portal.

from what i hear this is a great bunch of people. 2 of my friends just recently joined the corp.

I do have 1 question though, how strict exactly is the requirement for t2 ships? I fly mostly my hurricane and i can kill just about anything short of anything bigger then a BS (depending on how its fit) or a ship that kites outside 13km. I would be in t2 ships atm but i've spent the last 2-3 months on support skills.

What few requirements Noir. has for recruitment are fairly ironclad.  We require the ability to fly T2 ships of some form.  We also require that pilots be able to T2 fit said T2 ships.  For pilots with *very* solid PVP experience, and the stats to back it up, we generally don't require that they already be in T2 cruisers but T2 frigs are absolutely required.  Preferably T2 cruisers.
