DUST Search - DNSBlack and the Dirt Nap League: Decide For Yourself

Without having someone gobble up all of Molden Heath I doubt the anti-passive ISK discussion would have been able to gain as much traction. Again the only reason folks have to change tags is if they want to participate in events that would involve holding land like a conquest tournament over a single planet where the corp with the most districts at the end of the tourney period wins.

When it comes to being involved in the DNL I don't see forcing a tag change as a necessary for participation. I understand where DNSBlack was coming from, but it's just not needed. DNSBlack has delegated setting up the league on the ground, so I plan on using my discretion in situations like this. I'm extremely familiar with the friction tag changes create. As an example ERA districts on the map actually represent FA, IMPS, TEAM, and TRE in addition to ERA.

Dust 514 is a sandbox game and it's the players that run the sandbox. In beta the sandbox consisted of corp battles and I used those tools to great effect with billions in ISK betted by eve players, hundreds of Dust players participating in a seeded double elimination tournament, and a final match that had hundreds of Eve pilots duking it out in the skies above. These are stories that need be created in New Eden using the sandbox we have been given and not in a vacuum created by having matches conjured up out of thin air by CCP. For me doing it right means it actually happens in the sandbox, and for this to break down the walls of what is possible in a FPS game it needs to actually happen on the ground in New Eden.

I honestly had some respect for you until a few nights ago, and so did many others, as a CPM you actually played and interacted (mostly just recently), and as a player you learned to manipulate the sandbox in your favor, not an easy feat. The question is how do Kain the CPM who wants to do good for the game and Kain the player who is doing bad for it live with themselves? You can meta and roleplay all you want in this sandbox, but when does one Kain become the other, how can we trust anything you say when your actions show your are ruthlessly ambitious? Was it Kain the player or Kain the CPM who slandered our recruitment thread? Supporter of tiericide, EVE interaction, and a proper NPE SoonGäó514 "No blue tags make Tallen go crazy.
