Elite proposed Alliance

Yes, this is always my thinking mate

To me, dMw offers something unique with both it's vast array of games and it's ethos and tight knit community (not to mention the LANs, BBQs, trips to Europe and so on). I always think that more like-minded people would be interested in us if only they knew what we are. Making contact with other groups, particularly single-game focussed ones, may be a great way to 'advertise dMw', but as TL has noted is not without what I shall call technical difficulties.

The mainstay of this as you have said is to neither actively lose dMw-ers to other folds, nor encroach upon these groups inappropriately. The bottom line of the latter is we simply give the right impression of what dMw is with our contact with these groups, that we present ourselves appropriately. Thay way we may attract the right people organically, without stepping on any toes along the way!

I am fully aware of course this does not need to be said to you, nor 99% of our membership, but it is something that as the game leaders and so on, we always have to keep an eye on.

I hope those musings aren't too wishy washy! Once again I am excited by these developments, I'll hop on to their discords to say hello myself at some point! As I have said before at the end of the day more friends can never be a bad thing!

Totally agree with all that, but particularly when I find other communities out there that have such a welcoming attitude and mature gamers who want to actually play with other people in a relaxed and supportive environment. That's the main take away I have from these Elite groups so far.

I would hope that organically by us being an ally, they will see some of their players exploring our forums and games, I won't be pushing it too aggressively but never miss an opportunity I say.

Yep, absolutely. As I posted in the public area the code of conduct of these wolves in particular sounded right up our street! It's great to meet other nice people in the wide web!

That's also one of the reasons that DMW's SC org are in the PACT alliance.  :thumbsup:

The dMw intergalactic community & kinship service!

Our very own galactic networking division. We could shorten it to its acronym of DI... wait no, nevermind that let's keep the long name.
