lol like DNS has any sway in EVE. If they even did become a problem eve side (which they probably wont because like you say most EVE players do not like dust) I am sure there are many other eve players that would like to kill DNS ships.

MP2008 can you see if any of your guys can fraps?

if we're losing by 10 to 20 clones, once we get bigger clone packs, it'll be you guys who lose the battles on the ground :P Food for thought :P

Last night "Rebel" Forces led a fleet of 15 to show up and provide Orbital Support for Top Men. It wasn't long before DNS arrived in system with 4 pilots who quickly left the system realizing they couldn't do anything.

What this actually means:
Despite DNS's HUGE EVE side which is often a bragging point for most alliances with an EVE side. DNS Simply can't convince their pilots to show up in Molden Heath.

This could be an underlying problem with CCP not having good enough incentives for people to partake in these battles, but I believe the problem resonates from a deeper issue. It takes a special type of EVE player to legitimately care about DUST, DNS has a few, most of them are former members of RA, but for the most part, DNS Pilots just don't care about DUST, and why should they. There is no fun one shooting a destroyer, or watching a warp core stabilized destroyer warp away safely. There is no fun for the support fleet who shows up and doesn't drop any orbitals and waits on a quiet empty beacon because their enemy underestimated them and didn't show up with a proper force.

While the actual battle was lost by Top Men. (by no more than 15 or so clones) there was a victory in the sky, a victory that proved having a huge EVE side, is not the same as having an active EVE side that cares about DUST.

It has become apparent, that DNS as a whole doesn't care about DUST.

So fear not, coordinate with "Rebellion" leaders and they will ensure that DNS doesn't bug you guys during your match and if you have a pilot capable of dropping OB's we'll safe guard him too.

DNS may now begin their smack talk.

*Edit, I still have respect for the former RA EVE pilots. Hats off to what you do for your guys.

Well DNS Showed up finally with a better fleet. Was really surprised, they killed my one ship...I killed one of theirs, they just brought too many good ships, for you Dust players, we had militia suits, they were all proto.

Though I believe the reason they actually showed up had more to do with the fact they were losing face in this topic. Half the members were former RA pilots, which as stated I said I had respect for.

No matter the reason, they showed up, so credit is due.

Though I think it's funny they got trapped by pirates.

Prepared for the op: 1 hour
Moved to the location: 10 minutes
Killed ships: 1
Sat on district: 15 minutes while one guy drops orbitals.
Gets baited off district: 1 minute
Left stuck in a system due to pirates: 30+ Minutes

I'm sure DNS pilots will get use to enjoying that routine.

We showed up, you had like 12 people in the system, we killed one, you killed one. My guys know I care, and the "rebellion" knows I care, you guys did that and straight to reply here, proving you only did it to save face, you couldn't fleet that 9/10 times and you know it. The former RA pilots and new joins are the only ones that care.

Your wrong man, just because its taking TIME for our guys to start showing up. Its new content for them, not what they are use to, but...they are starting to love it. Your so short sided and quick to judge and mak stupid posts. You are the one who is losing face.

Care to rephrase any of this after tonights demonstration of commitment? It appears, that the members of Cap and Mercs EVE side do NOT care about dust...as they failed to show up. We had 25 members in our fleet.

Sorry I came out to engage you guys, came to the district, almost killed the orbital support if it wasn't for those damn logi's, you all docked up, then I went off to spend time with my fianc+¬, I guess you guys fought 7-2 while I was gone, would have loved to have been there, but after the PC our pilots (mostly from the EU time zone) were tired and logged off.

Like I said I only credit former RA members. I still maintain that DNS pilots really don't care.

The more you run your mouth and make excuses, the more care you create. The more you get the relevant forces (7-2) involved, the more you pique the interests of those that have other things to do. Like all decentralized groups, DNS members display a wide array of feelings towards the dust fights. You are doing a great job aligning those feelings.

We have been straight up with broader DNS... We have told them our teams don't need OBs to stomp any one of your teams. They continue to show up regardless, because once in a while a solid opportunity presents itself and it is great for building unity within the organization.

Perhaps I will change the timers yet later, so that I might take advantage of the intel you have shared with me. We might not even show up next time though. Have fun wit the late nights bud. I think ill do that now.

You are doing a great job aligning those feelings.

your posts have no bearing on the DNS fleet. 99% of them don't even know who you are.

<--pretty much mad you brought 3 tech 2 logi ships, though it did save the coercer on my suicide attempt to kill it :P.

well this sure got the anal bead boys in a uproar lol
