I had a meeting last night with TWL and DNSBlack and I have put the relationship between DNS dot and TWL on hold. When it comes to matters of Dust 514 and the Dust community DNSBlack will now be deferring to me. The Dirt Nap League has also now been put on hold indefinitely.
After FanFest the PFC will be reestablished and it WILL NOT require membership in DNS dot to participate. I will continue my discussions with the PFC Council and its administrator and seek their advice on how best to kick off PFC 2.0. There will be consideration given to Bosena also being reopened as Thunderdome so that Fittaken can be established as a community zone. I appreciate my friends in the community that brought this situation to my attention.
The pursuit of 100% Molden Heath control will continue in the meantime to exemplify the broken nature of key mechanics such as passive ISK and the inept tools of war such as anemic clone packs. finally some common sense. Also I have absolutely no problem with esports in dust, but it should not happen if it hurts PC. This.
People should be able to have their esports if they want, but that is no reason to crush PC. PC isn't supposed to be a tournament environment, it's supposed to be mostly devoid of regulation, a place that is shaped and molded at the whims of corporations, alliances, and their players. PFC as a small section of PC is still a decent idea, but not when it is closely regulated by a single entity, and it should only exist in in the absence of an outside alternative.
Kain, it's good to see that you've realized how far this has gotten out of hand. I understand that some players want a tournament environment to work with, but PC is not the place for that. Honestly, if that's what these players are looking for, I'm not really even sure of Dust is the game for them, at least not at the current time. Besides the short time with Corp Battles (arguably just a beta test for what would become PC), Dust has never had any indication of major support for bracketed/ranked style tournament matches. |
