Had a weird feeling and decided to search for my name. Hello there!
Dust University is still around. To say it's "active"... you'd have to define a little more specific standards.
For instance, I switched at a time where Kevall was in the middle of a vacation. Until he came back, it seems like the corp does not have that many members...
However, he came back and I was sent a ton of mail with very detailed information. If anyone is helping with Player Retention, it's Kevall Longstride / Dennie Fleetfoot. The amount of information and the extremely well laid-out formats, it enough to show the player the full extent of the game.
Playing in their corp for the past week has made me realize many of the Dust University members are casual members. You may see a couple log in once or twice a week. Some only log in for a couple matches. Are they active? Yes, but not as much as other "Active Corps" which have tons of members playing 20 to 40+ hours a week.
Furthermore, many leave Dust University. And that's great! Graduating from Dust Uni and gravitate to another corp (or venture forth and make their own!) means Dust Uni has done its job.
I can't speak for Immortal Guides, but Fox Gaiden's EVE toon is on 24/7 to monitor and record the chats. His Learning Coalition chat, which is by far the most successful "Dust Help" channel that possibly rivals EVE's "Help" channels, is one of the channels I'm constantly apart of, consistently helping out player with questions about the game and the game's future, and offering them facts about the game, information from Blue Tag posts on the forums, and my personal opinions on gameplay.
I would imagine Immortal Guides is a little more "active" than Dust Uni, but I believe Immortal Guides players are on a little more, while the Dust Uni players are more casual than the Immortal Guides players. However, I'm making a big assumption here as I haven't met too many players in Immortal Guides, other than Fox.
Great to see another fellow mercenary willing to help new players! Join us in the Learning Coalition and see whether you want to join Dust Uni or Immortal.
See you in the channels and on the battlefield! o7
