The Red Wake

"Politically Correct"..... stupidest modern phrase ever.... its either correct or it isn't - politics tends to make things incorrect by default.... food for thought.

I won't get into all of it right now, as I have dealt with the situation as delicately as possible to try and undo the damage, but it appears that not only was the community discord a target of spammers (people sending private messages to everyone in the user list to try and recruit for their org) but that several other communities were targeted as well. That all culminated in discussions about the game being banned in various places, someone trying to dox me, and a slew of other issues I've tried to fix today. Someone went so far as to accuse me of being JC himself even. 
 
I'm not going to drop names here now, you know who you are, but if I find out you are continuing the spamming and harassing other communities about Dual Universe, I will definitely report it and let NovaQuark deal with the situation. I've heard reports of everything from sending mass private messages to people, to joining other discords and spamming links to the game over and over, to someone joining voice chats to spam the game and harass people.
 
One person even had the audacity to go into discords and tell everyone they were the creator of Dual Universe and proceed to spam the game over and over. 
 
You are doing anyone any favors by spamming the game, and you are doing harm to DU's name by doing it. It's not helping any of us, and it certainly isn't helping your own reputation for doing it. 
 
99.999% of org's out there aren't doing it, but one or two org's in specific are, and they are going to ruin it for the rest of us if they keep it up. Nobody should be encouraging that type of behavior. 
 
I'm posting this here in the hopes that it will keep others from attempting to do the same thing, and so that the parties responsible know what their actions did. 
 

I mean, really, the winning move is for no-one else to play

You only need TU’s on cities and fortifications. For most of the planet you can rely on controlling through fear by havin a massive military that can force anyone off the planet. Just destroy anyone who try’s to contest space. 

Aero-Jousting.
this is a 1v1 game. 
Each player has a small ship, that is controlled by the player, who stands on top of it. The ship only consists of an engine and some control thrusters. Essentially, they fly around an arena, possibly built with obstacles, and try to knock the opposing player off their ship. The first player to touch the floor loses.

Blackstar Racing
 
Blackstar racing is looking for members. we need ship designers and test pilots. 
 
Who are we looking for?
   we want people who enjoy speed. we need designers to make and improve custom built, unique raceships, and people to fly them. Blackstar is a peaceful organisation, and hope that by being purely dedicated to the race we can be the fastest. I want to start out with a small team to start with, consisting of 2 pilots, and a research and development team of around 5 people. We won't expect you to be entirely dedicated to the game, but I expect pilots to try to be on regularly to test pilot ships for the RnD team, to train / practice often, and to attend races (given that it IS our main potential source of income.) I expect the RnD team to be on regularly as possible, and to attend races and events like the Alioth aerospace expo to aid in RnD by learning about both our, and others, ships and building techniques. Most of all, however, Blackstar Racing is about having fun at high speeds.
Why should you join us?
   If you want to be a designer, this allows you to be an important part of an ongoing design project - with only a small amount of people, everyone has a part to play.  People will see your work every time we enter a race, and if we win,  you will know you helped, and your work would become well known among the community.  If you want to be a pilot, you will get to drive some of (hopefully the) fastest ships in the galaxy, and you will have the oppurtunity to become well known as the person who flew it to victory in many races.
   But I think the most important reason to join us is that you like speed, and will be in a small community of likeminded individuals.
 
How can you earn money?
Now, of course the intended primary source of income will be prize money from races, but I intend to have the RnD team work on racer designs for the general public (not as well developed as ours, of course) and we will also be able to sell blueprints of prototypes and obselete designs for money. profits will be split equally among the team, with the pilots getting a small bonus if they win any races. profits will be split leaving quanta left for fundings for things like RnD, transport to races, fuel for races and other unforseen costs. Blackstar Racing is also affiliated with New Genesis, allowing us safety to build and improve, and also monetary support.
 
What positions are currently open?
Head of RnD - open for applicants
pilot - open for applicants
 member of RnD - open for applicants
 
How to apply.
Simple - visit the discord and ask, or apply to the org on the website. there are no definite requirements, I will just pick people who persuade me they are right for the job.
