  2. "We will not make the same mistake we made in 2005-06, our members will be prepared for the abusers and griefers of Star Citizen." - Astrus What is hardcore? Sanctuary of Wanderhome is a hardcore organization. But what exactly does “hardcore” mean to us? First we will talk about what hardcore is, then we will talk about WHY S.o.W. is a Hardcore organization. S.o.W. calls itself a “entry level friendly, ‘Hardcore’ organization”. We welcome new Citizens to Sanctuary of Wanderhome, but does that mean that you have to live in your grandmother's basement or fly out and live at the ‘WANDERHOME Compound’ to satisfy org needs? Well the answer is a resounding “No.” and we think what we define as “Hardcore” may relieve and surprise you. As a “Hardcore” organization, Sanctuary of Wanderhome... Understands that “You can only be as casual as your attackers/enemies allow you to be.” (Explained below in the "why" section.) Prefers to stay goal oriented. Prefers "depth" and "complexity" as tools to enable problem solving. Hungers for game related information as to stay as adept as possible to current and potential future game “metas”. See’s defeat as an exciting puzzle to be solved rather than a moment to pity ourselves. Basks in competitive play and trains diligently, as to not become victims in the verse. Creates content for ourselves to modify or extend our gameplay in creative ways. Does “Hardcore” mean that there are less interpersonal relationships and all “work” all the time? Absolutely not. In Sanctuary of Wanderhome there are friendships that span 14+ years. Supportive friendships where our network of friends have helped each other acquire jobs, professional and financial advice, and in a few instances have even been able to help a few of our college students gain acceptance into Master’s Degree programs. Because “Hardcore” gamers are usually “hardcore” in most aspects of their lives outside of games. Why, and how, did SoW decide to make itself a hardcore organization? The days of “fun”, taken by force In the Our History video we briefly talked about “The Base Wars”, during our tenure in Star Wars Galaxies, and to understand why we chose to define ourselves as a hardcore organization, a bit more context is needed in that story. Before the base wars happened, we inadvertently became the richest org on Wanderhome server with quite a few in game commodities cornered. Most of us were pretty hardcore farmers but very casual PvP’ers, until a particular organization decided to actively hunt down our members and grief our faction bases that we used to finance our org endeavors. We attempted to bargain with them, as traders do, and we quickly found out that the only currency that our enemies wanted to deal in was our anguish, frustration and loss of pride. Demons run, when good men go to war For weeks we attempted to ignore them and it caused massive losses in morale within the org. The less we fought back, the more frequently they came to feed on our misery. One day the entire enemy organization came to our city, which at the time was the largest player city on Wanderhome server, and stood on the City Hall steps and shouted “THIS CITY IS OURS NOW. AND YOU'RE NO LONGER WELCOME”. They killed our members passing by who were attempting to peaceably do PvE faction quests near our in city faction bases and mission terminals. That was the day, in 2005, that the leaders of “<SancT>”; Astrus and co-guild leaders, Shawkorrr and Yva Xorna decided that the unprovoked abuse of our org had to stop…..Completely. We tried to take “the high road”, we tried our best to play the game the way we wanted to play it, but our enemies provided us with content that cut off our usual day to day lives in game. Sanctuary, for the first time, did not have the choice to be a “casual” or “normal” org. That choice was violently stripped from us. In this traumatic experience we had to come to grips with the reality that “We can only be as 'casual' as our enemies allow us to be.” Our “hardcore farming” lifestyle was taken from us and after weeks and weeks of attacks, we couldn't bare the constant taunting and griefing from our new found enemies in the opposite faction. We decided to fight back. We were angry, and our enemies made the rivalry far more ad-hominem than honorable. Harassing us in game and slandering us in forums and social media. Fighting back would be no easy endeavor for a org that couldn't be called casual but definitely couldn't be called PvPers either. In planning to defend ourselves for the long term, we quickly realized that the majority of our org was highly skilled at making credits, but not at defending themselves in PvP. For 3 months we played the complacent victim as we trained vigorously. We morphed ourselves into an entity that could defend ourselves at a 'top 1% PVP level' while still being able to hold our place as one of the richest orgs on Wanderhome server. The pain of transformation Over the course of 3 months we transformed ourselves into a elite, tactical fighting machine that never slept, never gave up, never surrendered. We were so effective that our allied Rebel faction orgs trusted us to command the majority of its battles in an alliance called the URF (United Rebellion Front). As noted in the "Our History" video, we beat back our abusers, and forced their org and their allies into a complete loss. However this change took a massive toll on our organization internally. To beat back our abusers we had to become, what was considered by a large sum of our members, a “Hardcore PVP Organization”. During the transition from a Industrial organization to a “hardcore” Industrial and PVP organization, we respectfully lost almost 50% of our members, most of which left because they didn't want anything to do with PvP. Most of the members who left, in 2005, loved S.o.W. as it used to be; a traders guild with not much external “drama” surrounding it. But when "drama" came for us, they weren't strong enough to stick with the org and help us weather the PVP storm. It just wasn't what they signed up for. This taught us a valuable lesson. From Chaos lessons learned We'd won the war, morale was higher than it had ever been, but in the leadership meetings we had to come to grips with a mistake we vowed to never make again; “We can never label ourselves as a normal or casual organization, because We can only be as casual as our enemies allow us to be.”... After the war was won, and surprisingly to us at the time, we gained far more members than we lost. Our members felt confident and protected. And even though we were attacked afterwards, and even lost a few battles, we knew that we had what it took to adequately defend ourselves and do more than just survive, we could thrive in battle and economically. We learned from the losses of our membership during this time, and vowed in the future to let our members know upfront what type of org S.o.W. is, was, and will need to be in the future. We must be able to deal with the many dynamic circumstances our enemies may provide us. This is why we call ourselves a "Hardcore" organization and label ourselves as such. We will not make the same mistake we made in 2005-06, our members will be prepared for the abusers and griefers of Star Citizen. We will never give up, we will never surrender, no matter the losses no matter the tenacity of our enemies. You can only be as casual as your enemies allow you to be.

  3. N0cturnal88, at least for now. I say that because I'm not 100% if I'm set on this name in Star Citizen yet ? Long post alert! My name is Kirk, I'm 30, and I live in Texas with my wife. We recently bought a house a few months ago and are loving life, but have no kids yet. I work at Microsoft full time at our office here in Las Colinas (Irving), Texas. Texas is home for me and I wouldn't live anywhere else. I love to tinker on computers and cars, and enjoy dabbling in music/video production from time to time, though I haven't consistently gotten back into audio/video since I joined the Marines. My fun car is a 2015 Volkswagen GTI that was making 450HP to the wheels, but I am currently in the middle of having the head ported and slapping on a bigger turbo for 550 HP to the wheels ? I was in the US Marine Corps for four years as an Infantryman and got out 2.5 years ago. I was stationed in Southern California and did two deployments with the 31st MEU out of Okinawa, Japan, where we floated around the Pacific on a Navy aircraft carrier for months at a time as a force of readiness. (Everyone was getting pulled out of the sandbox when I joined, unfortunately). It wasn't what I signed up for, but I did get to see many great places around that side of the world, such as Australia, Hong Kong, Guam, Japan, and Singapore as well, and it ended up being a very good experience for me as it helped me land my job at Microsoft. Our platoon was chosen as the Maritime Raid Force during our deployments as well, so I got a lot of great training and can now shoot stuff really well. ? I began playing Star Citizen exactly a week ago after finally building a new PC (old one was many, many years old). I received a recruitment e-mail from your Org and, after watching all of the videos, was quite impressed with the organization and the dedication you seem to possess. I feel Star Citizen will be a "whatever you make it" kind of game, and having comrades to your left and right to experience it with you is crucial. I took a few days to experience SC in its current state and contemplate committing to an org, and did a little digging on a few others. I don't take commitment lightly, so wanted to be sure I could get behind whatever org I chose. Getting a recruitment e-mail a couple of days after joining SC from only your org and one other out of the hundreds certainly speaks for itself as to your commitment to actively improving your org. After seeing your Mumble channel I thought I'd hop on and see if there was anyone I could speak with. After a while Shawkorrr logged in and we talked over the next hour or so, and ultimately invited me to the event yesterday. I was thrilled to be allowed to tag along yesterday, cruise around Stanton, and experience all of the shenanigans in the Hurston forest with several of you! I had a blast, and this was exactly what I was looking for in an org. It was certainly enough for me to confirm that this org is something I could commit to, which I don't take lightly. I wouldn't make this overly-long post about myself if I didn't want to really be a part of this organization. So, after filling out the application, I'm happy to say that I am a member of this prestigious guild/organization as of yesterday. Again, thank you for having me! I very much look forward to meeting more of you and experiencing the training and further shenanigans in the future. I will try to join events as much as I can. I work the evening shift, so I'm working from around 12PM to 8-9PM CST (UTC-6) which usually translates to me staying up very late. Please let me know if there is anything I can help with, I am always happy to share any knowledge I have, whether that be with computers, cars, shooting stuff, Star Citizen, or otherwise! See you in the Verse! - N0cturnal88

  4. Hello! New guy here. Happy to have found this great online Star Citizen community. I'm hoping to have fun with the other members here. Whenever I'm taking a break from this particular interest, I'm usually found at home, feeding my Pomeranian his favorite dog treats and watching TV with my wife. Such a simple and noble life. Cheers, fellas!

  5. Ahoy, Space Sailors! My name is Austin (AustinFxX, and ZeDoktor) from Pennsylvania, USA, and I have just joined up with Sanctuary of Wanderhome! I was a member of Dagger Division in Underdark in my past assuming the role of smuggler, and I hope to do the same thing here under Resource Acquisition, and potentially bounty hunting under Discord Ops. Where I am will depend on my ships (Cutty Black, Connie Taurus, Hornet F7C), and where I am needed. I'm also interested in editing together some graphics, recording and editing videos, and some other media things as well! I'm looking forward to meeting y'all, and working together on the verse! - ZeDoktor

  8. Hey thanks for the invite, I am UREROLL the newer and super sexy, slightly overweight, space trucker that we didn't know we needed! I am 38 and looking forward for some good time, not much into combat tbh ( xbox controller while in the ship... yea, lets not talk about it) I got the game mostly to take inspiration from the 3d art but I must say I got hooked up nicely! If you see me staring at a door frame for 10 minutes I am not actually high on widow, I am probably checking out the parallax occlusion. happy holidays P. S. What voice comm do we use again? I love discord but any will do edit: I just read the post about discord, mumble it is then! ?

  11. Hey guys! My name is Bence, I am 27 years old and I live in Hungary. I work as a System Administrator and I do software development on this side. Outside of the typical CV content, I always loved role playing games and Star Citizen seemed to be one of the best Space Sim out there. I have been playing SC on and off for about 2 years now, but I have been playing solo every time and it became a bit boring after a month or two. Now that I have came back, I suddenly got an e-mail that I have been invited to the org, which I am thankful for. Thank you again and I am glad to be here. See ya'll around. (Sorry if my English is broken, I've not been able to speak it for the past 4 years) 🙇

  13. This month marks the 20th Anniversary of Sanctuary of Wanderhome! I'm very proud to have started and helped lead this organization for so long. The experiences within this org have shaped me as a man. There are certain circumstantial situations that gaming can present to people that test their integrity, mental prowess, problem solving and the amount a variables a person can handle thinking about when solving said problem. I have seen people become far more mature and wise because something (a puzzle or objective) or someone (an enemy or otherwise) applied pressure and challenged them in a way their out of game lives would never have. Personally Sanctuary of Wanderhome has blessed me with the opportunity to test business theories, teach and mentor and learn from professionals from all over the world. It has helped me to make business decisions and take on ventures I would never have dreamed of in my out of game life. I would be a much poorer and much more daft if it wasn't for you guys and the experiences I've had here. I've tried to give back with the investment forum, though most of you tend to get in touch with me personally for financial and professional advice. Thanks to our members, who have always been bar raisers, efficiency minded, duty driven and full of integrity! You can't not have fun with people like this! 😄 Thank you and /deepbow to our leadership team who have been instrumental in keeping us here, strong and always competitive. Thank you our future leaders who will place themselves in defense of SoW and help build SancTuarY of Wanderhome even further, so that we can be one of the top tier orgs in any game we play! Id like to ask you guys to fill out a testimonial to let us know just how much SoW means to you. It will be placed on the front of our website for others to see as they visit our site. Here's to many more years playing together and encouraging one another in and out of game.

  21. Hey there you dirty sumnabiches!!! Had a little nostalgia hit me and this is what I found as far as being able to contact SOW is concerned. Although I do have Eilif (that crazy wookie) as a facebook friend and we occasionally cross post. I have missed you all very much. And life has drawn me away for far too long. I hope you are all doing well. I myself am doing great!!! Got married. Own a home. Still working for the FDNY as a Paramedic. Hugs and kisses from me to you. Whether we know each other or not. - SMO P.s. I can’t find my account info for this site….like a nub all over again.

  22. Thanks for inviting me, I hope I can provide some assistance as I learn more about how this stuff works. I'm rather new to SC and I don't know much about organizations, but I do want to learn and meet some people with similar interests. Also, thanks for letting me join as a full member, I've never been apart of any guild or clan, or organization for that matter. I'm not online that often but when I am I'll be sure to check in and see if anything needs "doin'." Thanks again everyone. Happy 4th of July/Independence day!!!

  24. Hello! I'm BulletHail (or Travis, if you prefer to use my real name). It's good to meet y'all. This'll be my first group I've joined that focuses on PvP content in general. I'm not a stranger to it in other games, but I've yet to be among the top players in any large games. That being said, I've been wanting to get better at space and ground combat in Star Citizen for a long time, despite a lack of options to engage in both of these normally. Concerning my own interests for Star Citizen, I very much look forward to both the exploration and salvaging gameplay that will be added eventually. Ships I like: Origin 315p MISC Reliant series Drake Vulture Xian San'Tok.Yai Things I like doing in Star Citizen: PvE combat (ground or space) Crewing other peoples ships Mining Just chilling out and talking in chat while flying around Information about me: 21 years old I work night shifts I'm from the United States (Western region) Lots of experience with rpgs (video games and tabletop) I tend to be a bit quiet in voice chat if I don't have anything to say (It doesn't mean I don't want to hang out or talk to you, it means I'm either doing something that requires my attention or have said everything I want to say) I like doing things with a group, For interests other than video games: I like anime (and other good cartoons), memes (hit me up with that good *crap* if you want), writing, history, etc. English is my native language, but I can also speak and understand French to a degree (Don't expect me to talk about anything very specific in French) I hope to get along with y'all well in the future and (potentially) become much better at PvP combat and outfitting my ships. If anyone has any problems with something I say please talk to me directly to see if the conflict can be resolved in the easiest manner possible, I'd like to avoid any drama and discuss things like reasonable people.

  26. Hello everyone! Thank you for accepting my application ,The quick response was impressive to say the least. It's very exciting to begin Star Citizen apart of a very dedicated community, I've been part of many communities throughout my years and none have come close to this and I'm looking forward to it. I currently own a Drake Cutlass Black and the Banu Merchantman. I plan on keeping the Banu Merchantman as I'll be looking more into the Trading areas of Star Citizen more than anything else, but am still looking to improve my piloting skills a lot. Nobody wants to be ambushed and feel unprepared to lay the smack down. ? Lastly I just want to say I look forward to seeing you all around the verse! Edit: I keep looking at the sanctuary symbol on my tab, I can't stop seeing a turd. ?

  27. Hello all, Thanks for the invite you were very reactive quite shortly after I bought the game in December and I finally decided to look at the invite and to invest more in Star Citizen. I am not usually a very social guy and am not used to play in to MMOs, but StarCitizen is very promising (considering what to expect in the future, but also we is currently in the game) and I'd like to be part of it. SoW seems like the perfect place to meet people and play together ! I own currently an Avenger Titan and would like to be an asset in our defense. See you soon in Stanton and in the Arena ! ? Btw: I am still listed as affiliate in the forum so I can't access some pages.

  29. I'd like to start this by thanking Sanctuary of Wanderhome for the invite into their organization! One of the first things I thought about when getting into Star Citizen was the possibility of me joining large scale group of players, and this is exactly what I was looking for! My name is Rami, you can call me that, or Wallaby. Im a 21 year old arcade and game store manager living in the USA. I'm greatly passionate about interacting with people, gaming as both a hobby and a competitive activity, and learning new things. I'm very eager to learn everything I can about my eventual position within the org, and how to best assist my friends and allies throughout the verse. I like competition and combat, but I'm never one to throw the first punch. If you're looking for someone who prefers to chill and explore, I'm your guy.

  35. Good evening everyone. I'm new here! Working through the instructions of Joining and that means introducing myself! Not sure what to say... I've been playing Star Citizen for a grand and glorious 3 days or so, I know it's a work in progress (and there has been many bitter jokes on the subject) but I think it's amazing already for being in an open alpha. To me, it appears to deliver on a cross of promises from other space sims and combine the best of what things like Elite Dangerous, No Man's Sky, and parts of Eve promised, and I'm very hopeful for its continued success and development. I think being part of a well-established active community will very much lend to the experience and fun this game has to offer and I'm really looking forward to learning the ropes and doing amazing space stuff with you all!! I figure i'll start with resource acquisition while I learn dogfight and the nuances of ground combat then transition to that when my skill level is appropriate. While still enjoying the "care bear" stuff when im looking for a more chill expirience. Uh aside from that, I'm a Corporate Pilot in real life. I fly an airplane called the Global 6000. It is the competition to the infamous "G6" and just as "fly". I love gaming but I also have some real-life hobbies that take me away from the digital world at random. Mostly hiking, travel, and scuba. So yeah, that's me in a nutshell. Ask me anything! Look forward to seeing you in the 'verse.

  37. Yeah Krita is not as well known but as I use linux as my daily OS I have seen it in the software manager and was impressed with everything it could do. I'm not sure but I would say it's up there with Adobe for function or close to it. Glad to hear you gave it a go and hope you love it right after you set it up how you like. There are books and online guides. Oh and it's Wacom friendly not sure about other tablets.

Currently I'm testing myself in trading and mining with a few bountys in between. My native language is German, so whoever has me in voice chat sometime will hear it :D. I am happy to be here. I'm not a good fighter pilot but if someone needs support I'm your man.

  40. A bit of a humble post, but seeing my recent degrees and reflecting on the past few years I have a few things to say. What is Sanctuary of Wanderhome to me, To me it's kind of the best fricking people I have ever met. Why, you might wonder, when I came in here at first I was kind of a slacker, I went through high school trying to just get by, went into college and tried the same thing, and failed at first. I didn't really go for it to be quite honest, and did not try my best. I did attend space bujutsu at that time, and got the spirit of that, but I did not really understand yet. But then at some point after that year, I understood what was meant with "never give up, never surrender.". I started getting a summer job, to pay for the lost year, and got to retake my year. Then, once summer started, I worked as much as I could that year in college, to get the best grades I could, I was going from not doing any work at all, to trying to accumulate all there is to know about the subject and trying to start early. It took a while to say the least. It was a pretty rough year as well, I had to move twice, my dad had passed away. But I kept going on, and on, until I passed everything. I honestly don't think I would have been going on under other circumstances. People would tell me "just take a break it's fine, there is nothing wrong with failure." But the people here told me, or atleast what I got from them, too keep trying my damn hardest and just going for it, no matter what or how hard it might be. I thank them for that the most. Once I got into my second year, I got the hang of it more, I started classes on time, I got decent grades, but nowhere near "my best" yet. And now, third quarter of the year, I get an A and B's on the classes I had most difficulty with because I just kept trying, and not thinking "this is too hard" but instead thinking "What is it that I am failing on, and how can I fix it.". I learned that everything, EVERYTHING you might walk into, is a problem, and every problem is fixable, if you keep going for it. And now I am going into my final quarter, with a lot of lessons learned, and a huge pathway ahead of me, but with that specific lesson, to NEVER, EVER give up. I can go anywhere I want. Outside of college, and just the mentality, there is also something else I can say, everyone I have met and talk to regularly, I can say are some of the best people I ever met, they are humble, helpful, always try to give the best advice they can, and are highly unique individuals that I enjoy talking and listening to. And even if I only knew them for a year at my worst moment, they supported me the best they could, and got me through that period. I can genuinely call these people my friends, and they are damn good ones at that. Sometimes it can sound preachy, sometimes it can get a bit repetitive, but they mean what they say, especially when they say things do get better, you should always keep trying, and no matter how hard things get, always keep going. And honestly, for me, if I wouldn't have had these people around me, I got no idea where would I be now, would I have kept going, or would I have stagnated early. I can't tell, but I know thanks to them I am a stronger person than before. And if I can give anyone a word, or a lesson, it is to always try your best, even when seeing failure, even when one might not believe they can. Once you try, and keep trying, anyone can get there. I am an example of it.

  41. Hello Sanctuary of Wanderhome! My name is Jace, but I'll probably go by Athenaa from here on out. New member here and wanted to introduce myself! I'm from very very hot Southern California, where I live with my partner and our three cats. I've been gaming all my life, but I started my real gaming love affair when I found Star Wars Galaxies on the Chilastra server where Athenaa Malks was born, and had very lofty jedi dreams which never went away. I continue to play on the emu servers that are up and running (specifically on the Sentinels Republic server if you happen to also be on there), but have felt the urge for something bigger and have been quietly watching the progress of Star Citizen for a while. I couldn't resist the urge to relive the awesomeness I felt in my Sorosuub Luxury Yacht soaring around space any longer. I'm more interested in the social aspects of Star Citizen as well as things like passenger transport and diplomacy, so if you need a co-pilot, let me know! Warmly, Athenaa Malks

  43. It's interesting with 'old world' jetfighters and how all the information will always be in the same location while in SC we can move around the MFDs and usually have to change them everytime to what you need.

  45. Hey all! Names Critel (cry-tell). I'm new to the game, entered for the first time today. I love sci-fi games and am really looking forward to what SC will become. I'm generally a casual player, with work and everything else in life taking a bunch of time, but still like to take on all the challenges and look to improve. I'm usually around to play on weekends but do my best to spend a couple hours a day during the week. I'm also fairly quiet at first unless the situation demands it (such as training or team events) so I apologize ahead of time if I'm not talkative in voice comms. I'm also very willing to help with just about anything that helps the group. I hope to spend a lot of time with you guys in game and have fun. Note: currently having hardware problems that make it hard to play, namely RAM. Also sometimes voice chats don't work on my computer. I am working to resolve those issues ASAP.
