Horde Memorial
Horde Memorial
This is a memorial to how great Horde was at getting people involved in null sec.
I want to thank Gobbins for building an amazing organization that made the game very fun for me and got SO many new players involved.
Sadly, Horde is gone, for good.
But here was our onboarding process. :D
Horde Onboarding

These are the in-game cut/pastes I use for all onboarding processes. I cannot say enough: Edit these to make them your own!

This onboarding page is to record everything that pandemic horde does to board players. Boarding players is a tough but rewarding experience. If you have been linked this, you should consider starting with a video or attending a class on onboarding.
Flying around teaches you more than a youtube video. But watch the below video. :)
1-Newbies
1-Newbies
This has EVERYTHING you need to onboard someone as part of fresh-beans.
Paste 1. Do 2 as two steps. 3 has steps that are alternative responses. 4. is when you're ready to hand them a package, break this part up as it is complicated. 5 is when they got their package.
1.
Hello, welcome to Horde, I'm part of the Fresh Beans team to welcome you aboard!
If you are an alt, please press 1!
If you are a spy, please press 2!
If you are a brand new player to Pandemic Horde Inc (non-esi gated corp), please press 3!
I am here to make sure you read the welcome mail, and got discord setup. Once you are in discord, the #newbeans channel makes it easy to ask questions and get PVP and PVE pings, especially moon mining fleets. click Include Jump Gates in Route and shuttles bypass bubbles to travel to F7C-H0.If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me! (This message will repeat until you respond to one of us.)
Just read and respond right now, stay with me for 2 minutes.
2.
Did you setup discord?
Did you do Mumble Setup with Whisper key, 2 different buttons - https://imgur.com/a/f5aFiHF This is whisper to local channel, push to talk shouts to the FC.
3. rarely pasted
Please fill out the Caretaker Survey with Caretaker: Kismeteer - https://forms.gle/YVAqxwefm4pvJNSX9
As an alt/vet, I assume you know: Discord/mumble setup, non-gated vs esi-gated, why you don't rat in our staging.
Did you need the entire package? alts/vets should be restricted in what they train. Pick a group, any or all, or individual ships. Tackle, ewar, mining, ratting, exploration, or skill books?
whisper key youtube video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMYio0fXXfg
How to use Thera https://www.eve-scout.com/thera/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z2o1iDvxv4k
If you didn't know, there is easy shipping from jita. https://www.wckg.net/Newbie/shipping has how it works. If a full blown jita alt is too much, fly to Paala in a shuttle and remote order it. Stuff will show up generaly next day. NEWBIES, DO NOT HAUL IT YOURSELF
4. null sec
You are 'non-gated' meaning you have access to a limited number of systems, but it's still 71. You just need one for ratting in though and just leave your vexor there. https://www.pandemic-horde.org/information/corporationbulletin/index has more details on gating.
Horde isk making rules, Areas, and Industry https://www.pandemic-horde.org/forum/index.php?threads/horde-isk-making-rules-areas-and-industry-areas-updated-2025-07-19.4400/
And if you need an easier to read map of places you can go https://www.wckg.net/Rat is a guide I wrote. Has link to full rules thread for ratting areas. Okay?
You stay safe in null sec by watching local in a SEPARATE window. If someone neutral/hostile enters local with you, you pull drones and dock up. Because you cannot see all of local, F7C-H0 is a bad idea to rat or mine in because you cannot see everyone. Do you understand?
5. wrap up
Please make sure to fit rigs and insure before undocking, they are in the cargo hold. Do not rat in Staging. Setup mumble and discord.
Please setup mumble and setup your whisper key - https://imgur.com/a/f5aFiHF
A Guide to the NBI Carepack https://www.pandemic-horde.org/forum/index.php?threads/a-guide-to-the-nbi-carepack.2940/
I just arrived- what now? https://www.pandemic-horde.org/forum/index.php?threads/i-just-landed-in-mj-5f9-now-what-do-i-do.2966/
Ask questions in newbeans or in newbeans in discord!
Please confirm you have read this, AND The rules in your evemail.
If you are joining from the video, https://www.wckg.net/PVE/null-sec-ratting explains how to rat, start with herds, work towards squads or patrols.
If you get a chance, try to attend an Friday Onboarding class, or watch one here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Is7mtHYcM9A
onboarding is next for you. https://www.wckg.net/Newbie/horde-onboarding has everything we went over today. Talk to us in Newbeans if you get lost.
500 errors
500 errors
If you're getting 500 errors, This is a common error that should probably be more explicit, but it has a very simple fix that does not require any admin intervention.
Go to the discord settings page on square: https://www.pandemic-horde.org/settings/discord/join
Click the "Remove" button next to your linked discord account
Add your account again, on the same page
You should now be able to join discord servers through square again.
We've had some systemic problem with discord, figured out why, thanks to a nice person who showed me. So I have a more complete instruction set with dealing with account problems:
So the order of operations for account problems:
Square: Confirm they can sign into square. https://www.pandemic-horde.org/information/corporationbulletin/index This site should have tasks they have to follow, step by step.
Eve: Failing that, confirm they can sign into their eve account: https://store.eveonline.com/ Note, they must verify their email on the eve site.
Eve Account: If they fail on THAT, Confirm they are not steam or epic store: (same page for both) https://support.eveonline.com/hc/en-us/articles/203523662-Setting-an-account-name-for-Accounts-created-through-STEAM
ESI correct: Confirm that their corporation is right: https://esi.evetech.net/ui/#/Character/get_characters_character_id Note, this is cached for 7 days and would require changes to the website to change this problem. I have a user stuck in this loop now. https://zkillboard.com/corporation/98388312/ shows the correct id, ending in 312, memorable for being a Chicago Area Code and good beer.
Discord: Confirm they can sign into their discord via the website: https://discord.com/channels/@me Some users have not verified their email address, and it is REQUIRED to get our discord to work.
Discord 500LIf they get 500 error, Go to https://www.pandemic-horde.org/settings/discord/join
Click the "Remove" button next to your linked discord account
When in doubt, do them in reverse order I put them here.
Hopefully this helps. Will pin as well.
Ratting 101
Ratting 101
@everyone Come learn how to rat and ask general questions!
Newbean Ratting 101 is starting now!
FC: Kismeteer
Formup: F7C-H0 - B E A N S T A R (Pandemic Horde Hld.)
Fleet Name: Ratting 101
Ships: Vexor > Algos (Free handouts)
Comms: Newbeans -> NBI - Classroom 1
Copy this URL and paste to a browser if you're new to Mumble. mumble://mumble.pandemic-horde.org:41001/Newbeans/NBI%20-%20Classroom%201?title=Horde%20Mumble%20Server&version=1.2.0
To rat, do this in order in squads, with these hot keys:
right click warp
run from infested carriers, diamond rats, Tyrannos
w to orbit
f2 to turn on AB
shift-f to launch drones
control to lock up
f to engae drones
shift-r to recall drones
algos - vexor - ishtar - paladin - revelation - nyx/hel
[16:37:20] Snooppari > Ratting basics:
IF there are towers on the anomalies, destroy those first
1) Kill frigates (ASAP tacling ones)
2) Kill Battlecruisers (cruisers after that)
3) Kill Battleships
When there is new spawn, repeat from the start of the list.
Orbit the middle object of the site at a range your drones can hit all (example 50-60km drone control range you might want to orbit example 35 - 40km)
When you see neutral in local, turn off your afterburner and align to the station. Warp off immidiately IF you want to be safest possible (another option: turn off your afterburner, wait your drones to come back to your bay and warp off)
When your ratting you want to turn off from route planner "Include Jump Gates" so you can see true distance of the neutral / hostiles reported on the Bean-Intel.
Always Orbit / move, never stay still, have your fit cap stable and have your afterburner always on IF the fit has one or the ship is supposed to use with it.
[16:37:20] Snooppari > IF Infested Carrier spawn at your site, TURN OFF YOU AFTERBURNER AND WARP OFF ♦ !!! Warp off immidiately !!! LEAVE YOUR DRONES WARP OFF
Why squads only:
1) vexor has 2x heavy 2x medium and 1x light drones - they're not effective in patrols and hordes as those have more battleships
2) squads don't spawn infested carrier

Newbean Pre-ping
@everyone I hate to preping, but this is your one hour reminder on the NBI onboarding!
This is already captured on video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFEV38H35P4
Need to have your Whisper key setup - https://imgur.com/a/f5aFiHF Include Jump Gates in Route https://i.imgur.com/JHdNTez.png
You stay safe in null sec by watching local in a SEPARATE window. Staging is too busy to see everyone.
If you are in Pandemic Horde Inc, you are considered 'non-gated' aka a spy. To become ESI-Gated, you need to join a different corporation, which checks esis before you join. https://www.pandemic-horde.org/forum/index.php?forums/corporation-ads.71/ has a list, along with a shortcut in mine. If you have 10 mil SP, you have no excuse.
If you didn't know, there is easy shipping from jita. https://www.wckg.net/Newbie/shipping has a guide. If a full blown jita alt is too much, fly to Paala in a shuttle and remote order it. Stuff will show up generaly next day. NEWBIES, DO NOT HAUL IT YOURSELF
