R&D corps have a very slow grind (thanks ccp). So while caldari Navy, you could move up at a steady pace in standings, R&D you’ll grind up like a snail. At USIA, we could do the work for you on grinding up the R&D agent & the Corp and give you another option for raising the faction standing.

I’m no longer playing EVE, but the United Standings Improvement Agency [USIA] is in business, now headed solely by @Imiarr_Timshae, who had been my fellow Co-Head up to my departure from EVE . Please see the new USIA forum thread here: If anyone wants to stay in touch with me, I still check and respond to my EVEmails/forum pings regularly. I also have a new Discord username now; it is Ramthan#8734 if anyone wants to add me.
