The Dual Universe Yellow Pages is an organization directory sorted by service category. We are non-biased when it comes to who lists their org here. Listing is completely FREE and only requires you go through our application process which will give you a channel that you will control and be able to post and advertise in.
 
The Dual Universe Yellow Pages has the largest rolodex of organization categories, as well as over 60 listings. Our categories range from Autocracies to Transportation, with numerous categories in between.

Here at the Dual Universe Yellow Pages, we want to make sure everyone in the community knows what they're going to do after launch. That's our sole purpose, to host a list of organizations that allows anyone to join and instantly find the organization type they want to join. As such, we want to reward the people who have listed organizations by offering additional promotion. Every month, a single organization is chosen at random and receives the status of "Featured Org." They are then added to the #featured-org channel and their representative gains an additional role.
 
If you want to list an organization, find an organization to join, or just be social with the community, swing by our Discord and say hi.

From the negative feedback I've seen in the various Discords I'm in, the crux of the issue is the perceived bias in the reporting and coverage of various stories as well as the owner's interesting history in DU. Personally, I think Dual Insider balances out Ark Central in a way that allows you to get the full extent of the story, and I will continue to watch both outlets.

Regarding drama
 
Beware potential confirmation bias though. Frankly, I don't get some saying the forum is full of drama (implied or literally), as I hardly see much of it.
 
Now just because I don't see or perceive some things as such doesn't mean there is nothing going on, but I so far think some seem to blow things way out of proportions. Exaggerating doesn't help players or a community however.
 
So my little PSA is: maybe it's not as bad as some people think it is.
 
And I think the forum or community can survive an occasional joke or sh*t post or some organization taking a jab at another. Whatever makes it past a certain threshold, moderation can deal with.
 
Last but not least, there is usually also always at least two sides to (public) "drama". While you cannot always influence the other side, what you can influence is how you deal with it or specifically, how you react and respond. Often you can de-escalate or escalate further.
 
 
 
Regarding the group
 
Interesting idea. However, I see a potential manual work aspect where automation might be better. Orgs have go through an application and you have to manage it. Now, not counting the featured org status, for all players it might be more beneficial to have DU integrate categories into the organization hub at the community section where all orgs are listed. Think of like how Star Citizen does it with. Pre-defined categories and tags so as you create your org, you can already pick a category yourself.
 
No offense to your idea but for convenience features an integration into existing systems is always more preferable from a community POV over having to go through private entities and manual work to keep things updated.
 
But this mostly depends on whether the devs add this or not. If so, you might have to adapt your idea a bit.
 
 

You can never go wrong with Mass Effect (except Andromeda, but we don't talk about that)

Spartan Logistics is proud to announce it's first community project, Outpost ΣΠΛ. Outpost ΣΠΛ will be a hub for any logistics organization to utilize and profit from, which we hope will make transportation easier. Outpost ΣΠΛ will be home to a storage area for resources and constructs waiting to be shipped, docks for cargo freighters to refuel and restock, as well as a centralized hub for visitors, staff, and clients to mingle and relax. In light of this announcement, Spartan Logistics is looking for a few more types of players. While we still have positions open for pilots, traders, and military-enthused players, we are now also looking for players willing to do very time-consuming tasks that require a lot of concentration or the "hard-core" players; people who don't mind spending their time working on logistics networking, standard asset management, etc. If you would like to apply for any of those previously mentioned positions or just wanna come check us out, you can here: https://discord.gg/BjMNNvu. Spartan Logistics has also had the privilege of hosting a podcast which is recorded most Fridays at 8pm Central, in which we also are trying to connect with as many community members as possible, through guest appearances and callers. So if you want to apply for a position, check our org out, or possibly join in a session of our podcast, feel free to join the Discord server above and ping one of the higher ups.
