Good stuff! Nothing like a dose of accountability to level the playing field!
Thank you all for your help in bringing attention to this -
A living list is being forged. Some liken it to Santas "Naughty List", however, the All Father isnt so nice! The falling of the Swords has been commanded. The rivers will run red with the blood of the lost... the cleansing is almost upon us. The Purge Will Begin!

Gotta say.. that was good attempt, yet an epic fail. What else ya got?

Since nobody asked, here's some important data!
Those with higher percentages are to be commended for their dedication! I'm not going to define a number because it would mean nothing. But those with obviously scammed numbers are the true "target" of this entire proposition. Thank you for the data, assuming its at least mostly accurate.

I have many friends that don't own the game but are still part of certain orgs, and are waiting for beta/release ...
Are you telling me that them joining an org they like is not validated by your "opinion" because they don't own the game?
I'll make sure to tell them they are fake members of our community, on your behalf!
Thats the great part of being part of something!

Its perfectly fine that thats your opinion. It doesn't make it right, it simply makes it yours. That why public votes and debate are so great!
The proof is every orgs member list and the % of owners owning the game and not. -

I think he's referring to the part where BOO is #2 in the org list with 500 accounts signed up, with roughly 200 currently paid backers.
Are we being accused of hosting alts & spies? Certainly, NQ in the past has targeted orgs for having bad recruitment policies. They've made their feelings on the matter rather clear, I'd say.
Regardless of that, we don't know what changes will come with the Alpha 3 RDMS for organizations in game (and what, if any, effect it will have out of game on the community).
- I very clearly didn't accuse anyONE of anything. I stated a fact about the current ongoing statistical data from any and all Orgs. Reading more into it than that, again, only further justifies the the reason this post exists!
Those not doing anything "wrong" have no reason to feel guilty. If one doesn't feel guilty then they never feel the need to defend themselves!
- The fact that NQs stand on this appears to be clear is really the problem.... its very much not, thus the need for it to be brought up.
- RDMS, and the game in general, has no connection to the website at all. Sure, that could change at some point. But again, clarification and some level of understanding of NQs intent will easily clear many things up, this included! -

As I said. Dunno what you're referring to because there's rly nothing THAT strange going on
I guess thats the kind of opinion we would all expect from someone taking part in benefiting for the strange goings on! Its a human nature kinda thing.

Their overall rank can consist of their ghost and real accounts together still.
I guess I can see the distinction between the types of members as being a fair option. Not sure I agree with the ranking side of thing. But 2 different player counts would certianly give a perspective new member a better view of what the org really has to offer.
Org 1 has 10000 members with 4 owning the game and 9996 still unable to join in vs another org with 100 members that consists of 95 paid players and 5 still waiting to get in. -

Deception will always be a thing in DU. And, if it gets out of control, then NQ steps in. And did in the past.
But I honestly can't see anything unusual in the top 20 (read: anything noteworthy or a huge scandal which will shine a bad light on du because of those horrible, horrible alt accs)
Great point! So in that we know that NQ has at least some standard that have been set in place. Its not in any way a stretch to expect those standards to be upheld now. After all.. thats kinda what makes them standards! So its time to bring attention to this to ensure they in fact do it. Or at very least address it publicly so we ALL know what can be expected.

To be honest, until the game goes live, it doesn't matter. I can't wait for the organizational implementation in game.
Sure it does.. there are thousands of players out there now. All of them are potentially in and Org, or will be looking for one. All of the tens of thousands of people that have been watching DU as its grown up are also exposed to this bogus info. If there's no accountability and integrity in the data now then why would anyone ever believe it will change in the future?

The wording of the vote is a bit harsh, as there can be legitimate and active members of an organization that do not own the game. Despite that, I do agree that for a member of a Dual Universe org to be officially counted, it makes sense that they should have to be in the game.
I didn't say that ALL accounts that don't own the game are fake! I opened my account when the site first opened. but didnt buy the game till just before Alpha 2 started. I also didnt join an org till I owned the game.

Where are those 500 fake accs. Proof or it didn't happen xD
Oh and by all means. Ppl will find out very quickly if an org is active, does shit and actually has that many members or if it's fake
You can look at most of the top 20 Orgs and find dozens of accounts that both don't own the game, and have absolutely no interaction on both the DU website and the DU official Discord. Sure, some of those accounts are going to be valid. But most of them have absolutely nothing to do with the make-up of the org. Nothing but bogus fluff. On Orgs strength, or weakness is defined by the people in it. If ya don't own the game, you aren't part of that machine!

New players looking for an Org need to be able to depend on real information to make educated decisions. Some join an Org to be part of something bigger. Others look for a place to fill needed roles. But everyone looks for a "home" based on the quality of that potential home. As the start of Alpha 3 come more near there will a huge influx of new players. I think its better to allow them to make intelligent, honestly informed decisions. Its better for the player, as well as the game itself

But just a little.
Couldn't wait any longer. Cant believe I put off doing this for so long -
Great!! Thanks

Coming from thousands of hours in Star Citizen and Elite Dangerous. And close to 5000 hours in Space Engineers. Looking for some answers... finding little in the FAQ.
Is there anything documented anywhere about upgrading a pledge?
