@Sargas: Its a very involved story PMI weaves there. No wonder you guys are a bit confused and fractured. Thankfully our team was formed from a single mind-set so we are all working in the same direction, at very different speeds ;)

My main concert at the moment has been helping our newer members to become stronger. In general becoming stronger and more self productive is the main thing. I admit our history is a bit complicated. The reason the merger happened and PMI was formed was because I was originally talking with another player who brought up the idea that Pirating and Mining together could be productive. This was actually the former leader of EIMC I was talking to before he left the game. He was trying to get me to join his Corp though. I then decided to just start my own alliance. I came up with the name. I then started discussing the idea with Wolfdoc and he liked it. So we ended up deciding on the merger. I honestly am not sure how much he had discussed with his own people before the merger. I talked Scion (bad idea) into joining. Another top corp that only had 2 active members also joined in. Kerbos was the leader of it. In the end the idea of the alliance was a good idea. For the most part many of us are on the same page. We have similar plans and goals. Though how we obtain them does differ. Though the leadership of PMI tend to just do SOS missions and COMs. Sargas though does enjoy mining. Bob is usually off on his own mining but I got no issues with that. Being one of the founding members of PMI, if he wishes to do so I won't say anything. The hardest part is getting new members on board things. For instance I have been teaching them how to do SOS missions as well as explaining the importance of VIP. I even buy them their first month of it. Most are like me when I played in regards to VIP. They think they don't need it. Once they see what it does for them though I think they realize just how good it is to have it. I am really glad Wolfdoc talked me into getting it back in the day. We do seem to be getting a lot more new members here lately. I think in a 2 day period a few weeks ago we had 3 new members.
