Erm, Gottaa�. My faction with the Amarr is somewhere in the -6 range. It is like my 2nd lowest standing. Even with skills, I doubt I would be able to get my standing with them up in under 3 months. Also, as I really dislike the Amarr, I wouldn't do that anyway.
My plan is to stick with pve in GTE for a while to build skills and cash and then move on to the faction warfare corp Chick recommended, if they will have me. And as they are Minmatar, that means we will be blowing apart Amarrians, which is where the deathknell to my Amarr standings comes in.
