1st let me highlight DNS Blacks strong points so I don't sound completely bias. He makes a point about New Eden being about making personal connections and finding passion. He is well spoken in his presentations at fanfest, he has accomplished a great deal.

Now do I despise him? No

How I feel:

RA and NF did all the work, and I'm tired of hearing how many times he says "I" before the words:
Built, Made, Did, Am. DNS did nothing but have other corps who already owned everything join him.

My statement isn't nit picking, I spoke with him on teamspeak, he thinks he speaks for the whole community and knows what the player base as a whole wants but he only consults his ceos/directors, he doesn't care about the community, only his community. All it comes down too is: DNS Black is not Dust Savvy, period. He has no clue what's going on in the game or what the community as a whole wants.

If he wants to control MH and do his thing fine. If he wants to run for CSM and represent people, he needs to ******* listen to what the community is saying and not just the people in his alliance.

Last but not least him and the rest of DNS seem to have the impression that they are forcing CCP's hand by controlling MH. Fanfest is like 8 days away, what ever DNS thinks they are doing with 100% control is irrelevant, CCP has been working on stuff for DUST longbefore DNS Black came in.

Side note.

He ruined Darth Vader, Darth Vader would never say gobbled.

Black is very misguided about Dust's metasphere, community, how we communicate and interact with each other, and what generally goes on around here. On that I cannot argue. I am not happy with him myself for that podcast, and if he hadn't listened to us Dusters when we complained about what was said there HvLP would likely be clone packing DNS right now.

He is not in control of DNS Dust side - us Dusters are. Of that, be assured. No way in hell am I going to let someone who doesn't even play our game speak on my behalf or tell me and my guys that we don't want community help or interaction. That's the furthest thing from the truth and our goals as DNS Dust side.

And I think he's beginning to understand that, honestly. But is it too late to repair the damage he caused?

Ownership was already in their hands for the most part. FA abandoned TSO's alliance and surrendered their districts to them. Second, Unite New Eden. DNS isn't even capable of doing that, what a load of ****, they don't hold any SOV, their leader is purely focused on turning DUST into some sort of stupid sport, he said in his podcast he doesn't care about the community Third, you can not be serious about supporting DNS after that podcast, I can almost guarantee the only reason the DUST people are with them is for their EVE support, especially since DNS never offered anything but EVE support (That's all they had before they got RA and NF members to join them). Fourth, that's not a neutral view so much as it is an ignorant view. One need only listen to DNS Black's podcast. Twitter @Matthew_Dust Executor of Caps and Mercs Alliance.

Kane is doing pretty good damage control, DNS could sponsor tournaments and host them, but to gain actual community support, they need to ditch the name with the tournament. Dirt Nap League? no. Dust 514 Open Dust Alliance Tournament Thunderdome anyone of those would do miles of work, Kane's thunderdome project had at least some community support if not quite a bit. Dirt Nap League...I can't name one person that supports that that isn't in DNS, I could however name people in DNS that think it's stupid. Twitter @Matthew_Dust Executor of Caps and Mercs Alliance.
