Invites may be sent by using the "Send Corporation Invitation" option when right-clicking on a character name/portrait.

    1. Recruit applies to corporation
    1. Personnel Manager accepts the application and sends an offer to the recruit
    1. Recruit accepts the offer and becomes a member of the corporation

    1. Recruit accepts the invitation and becomes a member of the corporation

  • Consequently the clone upgrade discount for upgraded Factional Warfare systems has been removed
