OP, we are a training corp that helps players better understand DUST before they move on to others corps (probably yours if you haven't noticed). I don't see any logic in bashing a training corp full of students. It's like a 20-year-old man dissing a 10-year-old about how weak the younger on is.

this is more like the 20 year old telling the 10 year old to know his place when he only exists due to the generosity of others. Do they have to let you have that paltry amount of PC space? no. do they let you stay anyways when they could take it from you in a heartbeat? yes.

maybe try not insulting someone who could tear you in half.

It's like high school all over again, the little guys are trying to bully the big ones and the big ones are going "really? Did mommy drop you on your head? go pick on someone you have even a remote chance against." but they still insist on trying. know what happened in high school? I feigned a right hook and the little bastard flinched in front of all his friends. I got a whole bunch of new friends that day, funny thing that.

lesson? never try to intimidate someone who can destroy you for it. they will.

LOLEvelogic. Incase you didn't know EoN won all the districts by fighting for it. Didn't need a frigging Jenza logic or LOLEvelogic to take them down. They fought 2 alliances at the same time. Skill triumphs zerging and EoN proved it. LOLOPlogic. And EoN and all other powerful alliances are still not immune to spies. The wars will continue.

Dude, we understand the reason we received our piece of land and we thank others for it. I was talking about the OP specifically on how he is insulting my corp over it. That little piece of land we have is for training purposes only anyways and DUST University has no interest in galactic domination. I'm pretty sure he doesn't speak on behalf of his corp.

Sure we are more organized than you think but we are not doing that to intimidate anyone's corp. We organize so we can train new players so that they are ready by the time they decide to join your corp or that of others. This has been our standard policy for ten years already. Besides, we try our best to avoid drama.

Earlier on before 1.2, it was just overly easy for someone to sneak in team killers in PC battles because no one had any control over who gets to stay and who gets kicked from the warbarge. Even the spies admitted that AMOXing was just too easy back then. Spies felt that they needed a challenge. They wanted CCP to implement controls that make it challenging for spies but not impossible. The kick-from-warbarge feature is the first step and so far people are liking it. After all, a true spy knows how to build trust and exploit it when the time is right. Even with all the measures in place and all the filters provided by the corp leadership, all of that means nothing if at least one disgruntled director decided that he didn't like his corp anymore and conveniently has access to the "frakk-my-corp-over" button. You may not see much meta gaming here in the forums or maybe even in the game, but that is what smoke and mirrors are designed for. To hide the true meta gaming and make it seem like it's almost non existing when in fact it's right under our noses and we are about to get screwed. As for the suggestions made by the community compared to those suggested by the CPM, I'm not sure what to say about that. All I can say is that hopefully we'll see an official election system in place by the start of next year's CPM elections. That way, we can finally feel that we are being properly represented. Until then, we have to made lemonade when life gives us lemons. Although IWS and Hans aren't really lemons considering the help that they provided. Jenza I'm not sure. Nova Knife? I haven't seen him around here for a while. What's up with that? As for Dust corps getting robbed by directors, that is actually normal and expected in New Eden. Considering that you say that you play Eve Online, you should know this by now. Of course, some of the defectors do it out of frustration, but that is part of the game and its nature comes with the territory. As for EoN and others like them, I just want to remind everyone that no powerful corp/alliance stays powerful forever. If you look at Goonswarm Federation in Eve Online, even they don't expect to be around forever despite the fact they created one of the most intricate and most elaborate spy networks in New Eden. That is the nature of humankind. Powerful nations rise as they knock off smaller rivals, but the bigger they are the harder they fall. And as soon as they fall hard, the smaller rivals will come in and fill the power vacuum.

Dust is skill based where a squad of 6 good people can take down an entire team of 16 scrubs. Zerging does not work with Dust and pros love zergs. More kills for the buck. 3 alliances have tried to displace EoN and all 3 failed. FPS requires skill. No matter what people try pros will always find a way to make something OP. You are right. Skills win the game in Dust. But meta gaming is still a factor that cannot be ignored.

Are you still realizing that A SMALL PERCENT OF THE PEOPLE WHO PLAY DUST ARE NOT IN PC. EoN. doesn't own all of the districts. So they really don't own molden heath. Wait until the rest of the low-sec/null-sec regions open up. Then EoN will have to face all the other blood-thirsty alliances out there.
