    Ja, damit kann ich mich auch identifizieren. Als ich in der Community aktiv geworden bin und meine Firma gegründet habe, habe ich auch alle meine Freunde angeschrieben, denen ich davor von DU erzählt habe. Immer mit dem Argument "Wenn du beitrittst landen wir auf Seite 6,5,4 etc." 
    Ist aber auch schön das zu sehen, denke auch dass das jeder nachvollziehen kann.

    You got a lot of hate by the community. Part of it was just the normal "Oh, someone gets beaten up, let's punch him too" internet attitude, but a big chunk of it was reasonable. You did a lot of things wrong, got really angry really fast, weren't able to accept a defeat and ignore any advice. I will not miss you, you will not miss me. But it's always sad to see someone leave the community.

    Instead of leaving the topic alone and just stating my goodbye, I'd like to have a few words in this as well.

    Back when I joined the community, I was one of the people being contacted by Sakej99. He told me about Dual Secure when I told him about my plans for the game, leading a corporation and building ships better than the standard. At the time, Dual Secure and TVR were already the enemy of the whole community, which I had yet to fully realize. Instead of declining all offers, I replied that if he was interested, I could sho him my ideas. And Sakej actually did show genuine interest. He motivated me to start working on the models I have been thinking of for a longer time ever since seeing ODYs design ideas on the community page. 
     

     
    And after showing him my first projects, which honestly weren't good, he encouraged me to go on and make more, and with time I got better and more creative with my models. I posted these designs I actually made for Dual Secure on the community portal and gained a whole lot of helpful feedback. These designs are the reasons Objective Driveyards got interested in me, and today I'm a director in a beautiful organization in which I found a lot of friends, response and fulfillment. It goes even further, because one of the designs made its way to an industrial business near my hometown that actualy offered me a job at some point (which I accepted).

    Through the whole story of TVR and MM, my standing in this community might be a lot different, who knows.
    But I know I'm not the only one affected by their actions.

    In fact, while I do support NQ's decision in every way and wish they keep up that kind of work in the future, it still saddens me how it had to come that the community lost an integral part of it - and even more that nobody realizes the actual loss yet, but instead celebrates it. 
    The actions of TVR surely weren't comofortable for most and I, too, had my fair share of personal experience with MM. I also knew about about their background for the longest time by now, yet I stll appreciated having a common "antagonist" in the community. Finding somebody willing to fill that spot is not that just a nice occurence, it's rare to find an actual constellation like this. I was also glad when the Unity League emerged, because that gave opportunity to have a serious and common threat later in the game. With the deletion of UL, we're back to a grid of many smaller and bigger orgs in what can look like a battle royale at times.

    I certainly couldn't say this in the past, but this time, I have to agree with MM. He did get to entertain us in one way or another. 
    And while I know for a fact that not everything is completely true the way he states it, I appreciate him showing a more human side for once. Although he's still a douche.

    I don't wish for anybody to lose their progress after they put that much time and effort in it. If you come back to DU, know that there are people who will appreciate it.
    Until then and good luck,

    Croomar

    We may have not gotten along, but that's no reason for me not to wish you farewell (unlike some here) and gl on your endeavors in both; your personal and gaming life, mmtheboss...

    As an outsider looking in since I wasn't in any high circles for the majority of this and was aloof to 99% of this only to be caught up later, there were a lot of choices that could have should have been made better. Posting pictures in the forums, acting out, picking fights you knew you wouldn't be able to win come game time. I'll admit that I'm all for a rebel, groups like goon/frogswarm and BOO, they're the alternate side that makes the game truly interesting.
     
    The path that you guys took, however, was nothing short of a meltdown. Your cuban missile crisis of sorts made a lot of people look down on you and the condemnation you received as nothing more than a couple of leaders kicking and screaming only tightened the noose which eventually led to your grand execution by the high priest.
     
    Hopefully, other orgs and their leaders and followers can learn something from all this.
     
    Don't be a dirtbag today, you'll only be a poop stain tomorrow.

    Could we just agree to leave this topic alone? He made his statement, that's enough.
     
    We really don't need every other person jumping in here to comment and starting yet another toxic fight on the forums.
     
    It's not healthy looking to new people coming into the game.
     
    There are plenty of other places to discuss this whole fiasco, creating more drama here isn't going to reflect well on anyone.

    As the CEO of a ship producing corp, I had some ideas about this as well. A reverse engineered ship will never meet the quality of an original design, but you could sell it cheaper. At this point we pretty much know that communication between ships/stations is possible, so we will most likely see some kind of holonet.
    My ships will have a certification, so you can check if your ship is original or faked as soon as you get in range of an antenna.
    Also, a ship without its scripts will be useless. So I was wondering if you can make something like an activation via the holonet. Faked scripts are an effort most stealers are not willing to do.

    Welcome to the community, GimmeMyGold.
    Here are a few things you should know before having an epic journey and destroying the economy chit-chatting on the forums:
     
    Take everything with a light-heart. Here, we are all about humour and slowly waiting for the Alpha.
    Cybrex is known for being suspected of creating alts, so make sure to meme about him.
    Terran Union is the biggest corporation and nobody actually knows what the Union is about.
    Follow all the rules (because I mean some civility is needed)
    Make sure to research aerodynamics, physics, economics, EVE Online, and various organs in order to know what CaptainTwerkMotor is talking about. No, seriously. You should really research it because Twerk is like a person who worships science.
     
    Enjoy your stay, and stay Cheeki Breeki.

    They abandoned the Ark Token system in favour of player owned PRotection Bubbles (Which are not safezones, but SAFER zones).


    Other arkships will exist in the game, players only have to find them.

    If your not a veteran of Eve Online and you want to be even more super excited for Dual Universe, you should read this beautiful, heart-wrenching article about the classic sandbox MMO; it makes the possibilities for DU seem that much more incredible. 
     
    And after reading about all of the incredible feats of leadership, skill, teamwork, and cunning... I'll probably end up a homeless hitchhiker bouncing around between territories... Oh well!

    (Maybe I'll write a book: Hitchhiker's Guide to Dual Universe)
