ROCK - Now recruiting beaded ladies and hairy babies
So, your either bored and just reading this thread for the sake of it, or you are actually interested in joining an alliance. If you are the former you are welcome to keep reading, you might decide you want to join... you never know! If you are the later, well carry on...
ROCK is one of the longest standing alliances still playing Planetarion; we have a long history in PA and other similar browser-based games.
The long and the short of it; if you are interested in joining pop along to #ROCK on the Netgamers IRC network (this can be done via the com-unit ingame, however if you decide to join ROCK you will be required to use mIRC or a similar program to enable you to connect to our private server).
Quick Details
Join #ROCK on Netgamers, ask to speak to a recruiter
This round you may join with either a vouch from a current member or after an interview.
You will then be given a trial period in which to prove yourself, if at any point during that time we think you are not up to being part of ROCK or contradict the ROCK Spirit you shall be given a short period to improve else the decision to part ways maybe made
What we offer
- Dedicated and hard working command staff
- Large community-base - We play many games and have many old members who idle around our public channels
- A place to learn the game and make new friends (we have a real-life alliance meet happening soon)
- Our own brand spanking new private server
- A steady supply of beer, cookies, goats and cheese.
- A diverse (read wacky) group of individuals
- Regular attacks (at least once a day)
- Defence whereever possible and earnt (earnt? yes, give and you shall receive)
What we don't offer
- A home for your ego
What we ask of you
- A moderate level of IRC and game activity - Our private room is not idlerpg!
- Attack and defence participation - We run at least one attack daily and expect you to try to take part in at least 4 a week (of course real life and game situations are taken into account). We also ask that you defend regularly, a good target would be one defence fleet a day. Defend and you shall receive defence whenever possible, don't defend and you won't; its that simple. If your not willing to help out we don't see why we should help you...
- A paid account. This may seem unfair towards free planets, however it's important that you can pull your own weight in the alliance and with the limits on free accounts that is nearly impossible.
- Website and forum activity - Announcements are nearly always made on our forums and the website, also it will allow you to chat to people from our time zones who may not be on IRC when you are.
- A willingness to learn and help out. New to the game? No problem, we're here to help. Similarly experienced players that are willing to help train newer players, analysis stats etc. are always welcome. Got tech skills? Always welcome!
- Honesty, fairness and fun
-- Honesty - play by the game rules (goes without saying really) spies are lame etc.
-- Fairness - Everyone is equal in ROCK when it comes ingame actions (defence etc.) this is not the place for big egos
-- Fun - Planetarion is after all only a game!

Would you mind clarifying the question?
Are you asking what Rock's policies are, or are you asking what the letters R.O.C.K stand for?

Re: ROCK - Now recruiting beaded ladies and hairy babies
its nice to see an old allie is still standing. I sent a few members here once and it was proven to be the right decision. I even remmember a few nicks from the old days. As far as im aware Rock was never known to be a major top contender, although they were strong and would fight you till the bitter end. The HC and staff work hard at this allie to make it better for all there members. And im glad to see an allie that started very ealier on in PA's history is still standing. Big props rock, i think personaly you deserve it.

Re: ROCK - Now recruiting beaded ladies and hairy babies
Yes it is a new round and once again...ROCK is back \o/
Whats that you are all saying...'oh no not again'..
but why per se..we may be nutters, we may love our alcohol but this round we have an advantage...oh yes...we have women players
we have cast off our shackles and decided to break the mold...we brought our gf's and their friends with us mwaahahahahahaha...no more night time nagging of 'your on the comp too much' or such...now we have to fight to keep them off the comp :/
Whats that you are saying now? ... 'so what'
hmmm a tough audience..ok did i mention our vast supply of alcohol that one of our members nicked from f-crews stores
or what about the we are one of the longest running alliances still playing pa and as such we have a damned good rep for being a great place for new and inexperienced players to come along and enjoy themselves whilst learning the game.
we even have our own minister who blesses our fleets b4 launch :/ (bit crazy even for me that is)
we dont ask much of our members just be active on irc and regularly offer def if needed...
so if you havent been scared off, and you fancy a round with a difference ...come along to #rock on ng and give an op a slap..might wake them up from their hangover

Re: ROCK - Now recruiting beaded ladies and hairy babies
Hello to one and all, and good luck in the coming round. May the purple scones of success be with you.
Mind you, if you're seeing blue scones, then you really are trying too hard to stay awake for the whole round. Get some sleep, or alternatively, more coffee. Not that we mind what oddities you might want to talk about. We're happy to sit and have a decently silly conversation for the fun of it, whilst playing the game, instead of staring unblinking and edgy at the game screen all day, and asking that you do the same.
As the others have said, we also don't mind who you are. Young, old, girls (we have an increasing number of female players, myself included), boys (got some of those too :P), new players, old players, people who have commitments irl (let's face it - who doesn't, when it comes down to it?), madhatters, sanehatters, and most importantly, people looking for a friendly community in which to play a game. All are welcome here.
So, pop into #rock, have a quick interview with an op (if we don't make sense... then that's quite normal). Most likely, before you know it you'll be into ROCK, meeting new people, learning new skills in a dynamic new system, and being part of something that has been, and will be, around for a long time.

Might drop in on IRC sometime soon.
Stuck irl these days but ROCK is never forgotten.

Us?!? Crazy?
Surely you thinking of the wrong people there Bowen my dear.
We have nothing but deep, philisophical debates on the meaning of life and religion and its place in society...

Re: ROCK - Now recruiting beaded ladies and hairy babies
yes it was ovi....but i'm pleased to say that we are accepting applications to join our madhouse once again. Unfortunately it is only on a vouch basis
