This is about the DPS League in STO.

Any fellow DPS League members here?

Yes I am in the league, only 10k currently though since I have having issues breaking 30k. 26-27k is my best so far. I read through all the posts about the drama involving the league the other day. They sent out re-invites and I remain a member of the 10k channel.

What's happening with the DPS league?

What's happening with the DPS league?

The short version is:

Some of their Admins got pissy about the rules and kicked everyone from the channels before creating their own and ninja inviting everyone from the league to them. The original dps channels are still there and they sent out re-invites to all those in the league.

So that's what that was about. I had some random channel and had to rejoin 10k.

Ah, sorry about that. My bad. I was a member of 10k, but haven't been on in a week or two so not sure of my current status.

Yes, RyanSTO and Felisean led a revolt when they felt the majority of their fellow admins we're going to ban Recluse support/nannying of ISA runs for DPS league records. The pros and cons center upon whether it's fair to have four other players sacrifice to maximize the score of one player. RyanSTO's faction is comprised mainly of fellow Germans as well as the author of CombatLogReader, which had code uploaded in most recent patch that prohibited copy/paste function so as to make it more difficult for the Originak DPS League to recover.

Did I mention that RyanSTO's secessionist league (using Bronze, Silver, Gold, Diamond channels vs the 10k/30K/50K/75K+ channels of the original league) started by logging into Tribble during Thursday's patch and booted everyone out of the original (numbers) DPS League. That is why league members are being reinvited by to join the new metals (secessionist) league AND to original (numbers) league. The former has CLR integrated into the league, so uploading any scores will go to them. The original league is manually reinvit My people back to their proper channels.

It's all childish and stupid on both sides.

To elaborate, from what I gathered they did not want to Ban Recluse support/nannying...but to have it on a separate table from "normal" runs. They wanted to differentiate between boosted runs and "PUG' runs that occur within the DPS Channels.

CLR is still being used by DPS(numbers), but they are working on writing a replacement. Last I heard it will be a month before the replacement will be up.
