WoE Elite Alpha & Project Haven
“The purpose of Project Haven is to facilitate learning and growth in a community atmosphere. It is hoped that many new players will be introduced or directed to Project Haven very soon after joining the game for the first time or completing the opening tutorials.”
What is it: An in-game chat community
For whom: New players & experienced
How do I join: You don’t join; simply participate in chat or take part in fleets
Location: Arnon, 0.6 sec
Purpose: Learning and developing through sharing knowledge; Community interaction; Rookie player help
Our Resources
Our main resource are players who enjoy taking part in community chat and helping others to achieve their goals. New players who enter our channel will have instant access to a corporation-style chatroom and events. To help facilitate Project Haven, we are in the process of setting up an Athanor for moon drilling and ore refining, and a Raitaru for manufacturing of ships and modules, and blueprint research. As part of the project Arnon will be the permanent residence or starting point for all of our fleets. Our project will give players who are interested the ability to gather resources in high-sec space; manufacture those resources to sell at either of the nearby trade hubs; have access to pivotal agent missions which are located nearby and in the system; and not least being located centrally on the margins of all four empires, it is excellent for the new player who wishes to venture out to other parts of the map once he or she feels ready.
Goals
Whether a player is having trouble completing a tutorial mission and needs help, or if someone wants to know the best location to purchase a first destroyer, there will always be someone to answer your question in our channel.
Here’s a Summary of Project Haven benefits:
Access to help from players

How do you join?
You don’t! If you would like to benefit from Project Haven, open up your in-game channel list and type “Elite Alpha” into the search box at the top. It’s as easy as that to take part in the community!
Rules
Regardless of whether he or she is chatting or not, anyone who uses the Elite Alpha chatroom agrees to respect the aims of the channel and to protect the welfare of all players who use it (for the benefit of new players).
Any player who enters the channel and disregards these rules will be permanently blocked from the channel and all of its services.
The above law is in place so that new players can continue to develop and benefit from the project without fear of harassment or exploitation from experienced players.
I think this project is a good initiative, keep it up. Maybe you already do it, but advertise in local or anywhere in game and get some ISK donations to this endeavor also make a twitch / youtube channel so newbros know about this project prior to joining the game.
