Some of us probably know this. We start playing an online game out of boredom. After familiarizing ourselves with the game mechanics, we quickly realize that it is better to join a guild, a corp, a clan or something similar. We overcome ourselves and communicate with the leaders of these groups. We are accepted and put a lot of ambition into this new "family" to prove our worth. Because we think it's nice to finally belong somewhere. We do more for the group than others do. But at some point it turns out that nobody likes us.
That's how it was for me in the game EVE online. There are large alliances in the null sec area of the game. There are enormous opportunities to become rich in its area. In order for a corp to remain in such an alliance, it must regularly participate in battles. Participants received proof of attendance from the alliance. Such battles sometimes last several hours. At the end of my career in such a corp, I was the only one doing this work. I had collected more evidence solo for the corp than some other corps with twice as many players. I got a space station for the Corp and supplied it with fuel myself. I cared about ensuring that the solar systems around us remained economically profitable. When I asked for help, no one cared. Everyone just wanted to exploit the results of my work.
