David "Dawgtanian" Hinds has been brought on Capcom UK's staff as their new community manager for Street Fighter X Tekken. This is really awesome news, as it means Capcom has again tapped our community to find a new employee, and it's always nice to have people who have a great love fighting games working for the company that produces them.You can follow Dawgtanian on Twitter and please give him a big congratulations here in the comments for landing a job with Capcom.
I guess it's my turn next to revert that company back to universal respect (Pre 2007)
Instead of a PR Spinning (SF4 "Hold on to ur discs" Mega Man/Gene not in MvC3 excuses), SOPA loving, Hate Hording (making unbalanced char. on purpose to prolong interest) DLC crutch (making games incomplete because they use DLC to charge us for the rest) Shoto-Loving company.
"If they didnt hate u b4 Gokai they do now!"
Dont hate me! You should be ASHAMED of your business practices.
Well someone had to break the positive remarks. GokaiGreen... you really had to go there?
Good news though. Like seeing El Fuerte players rise up. Considering what Seth Killian has done were expecting huge things from you as well Dawgtanian!
@ 6
There were only 3 comments b4 mine. Looks like you were trying to say something "smart"
BTW I was typing all of that TRUTH while they were typing banal "congrats" comments.
Hopefully he can help to make a real change and do not end just like another puppet of the company.
There is a lot of things that Capcom needs to get fixed like on disc DLC, DLC costumes packs and DLC characters which have been a total failure and need to stop. I know that he is not probably on an important position for things like that but the first should be to pass the people opinion to his bosses and make sure that what people want is reaching the eyes of the person that can make it happen.
Congratulations and the best luck! please do not end like Snow or Keth Sillian xD...
@I hope you have proof of this.
Congrats Dawg cant wait to meet you hopefully at this weekends sfxt fightclub in Scotland. The uk needs allot of work, Im glad they picked someone with a passion for the game. The uk really needs this capcom europs site sucks and to be frank im not all that impressed by neoempire either. In short we need a hero.

Capcom hires Grade A A-holes all the time.
Look at Seth Killian and Snow for example.
Well Snow got fired and Seth...he's next.
S-Kill is not as nice as you think.
He's nice for quick responses like u rule or capcom is great but if you ask him questions about Ultimate or Street Fighter he goes into PR mode real quick looking for a way out.
@ 19
The other MAJOR A-hole online is Chris Hu
After having MANY close games with him in SF4 he never said ANYTHING positive about my style and ran from me whenever he saw my tag. He continually cursed at me and picked Top Tier Sagat from time to time.
I said one time "Wow that was a close one" When he did EX Hurricane Kick for the chip win when he had almost no life left.
El Fuerte has no real options in the corner.
Knowing that his main option would be to do that move. My only option was to use an ultra on wake up and Prey it's slow enough to catch Ryu on recovery.
Nope! Capcom gave that move full invincibility too.
Chris Hu replied "Whateva dats why u do Random Ultra"
I said "Since ur the pro why dont you tell me what i could have done to escape"
He said "I dont know, stay free"
gokai no one cares what you have to say you're nobody go away
LOL at ppl saying that once you work with Capcom you lose your voice you becomes tools and blah blah blah
Man F ya'll I need my checks at the end of the week. I need to pay for my college, my children, my girlfriends gifts, my life so F ya'll lol
Get in the real world people. Life isn't all about that controller and t.v screen ya know
@26 if you wanted to be more believable you could have said " that's why you do random ultra over there."
@ gokai green, why to u post here? Always negative and very insulting. Gtfo here you little chump. Ho eat dome glass and wash it down with some bleach. It's scrubs like you that give the fgc a bad rep. Shut your stupid mouth, slam your fingers in a door jam and spate us your banal gibberish.
@ catalyst pleaded ban this dude its getting very annoying how he how on every thread to spew insults and negative energy. Pleade!
Anyone else want to see this turd banned? Let's get it going post ban gokai green and let's get him outta here!
BTW Congrats!
Haters gonna hate. Congrats to Dawgtanian on becoming community manager for Street Fighter x Tekken!
@19
You are basically saying that he should be a tool for you instead of Capcom and you'll pay him with your respect. Or maybe you think everyone in the community shares your opinion?
When you're an employee for a company, you don't talk bad about your company just like you don't talk bad about your family. That's common sense. However, that doesn't mean that Dawtagnian & Seth don't report back actual community concerns to the higher ups. In a way, they're messengers and not decision makers (which are primarily Japanese in Capcom's case). Why do you have to go shoot the messenger?
I have to say i'm shocked to see any negative things said about Dawgtanian. I sent him a email about an El Fuerte and he was very quick to respond and even respond with a video himself. As an obvious fan of his play he was even so humble to be thankful i even mentioned his name in one of my little videos.
Dawgtanian is a very stand up guy and i wish him all the best! Congrats!!!!!
To this day, I still don't understand why people say Max is a Capcom tool. Don't get it; I really don't.
But congrats to Dawgtanian. Assuming he earned it, success should always be congratulated.
SN: I'm curious to know whether or not some of the people commenting about community members becoming mindless slaves of Capcom have ever had a real job were you are actively representing the company you work for.
Lmao so oops is gokais other super secret eh tag! Wow.
The sheer amount of ridiculous venom and nonsense spit here is just... Wow. Some of you need to wake the hell up. "Corporate puppets?". "Lose their humanity?". Why? Because they don't jump off a building screaming about how bad a company capcom is in your not-so-humble opinion?
News flash: obviously if they got hired by Capcom, they probably agree with them and genuinely like their products. Max's opinion is moot because he was hired to do one specific project for Capcom? Do some of you freaking hear yourselves? (better yet have you watched his videos after the fact? Oh right, of course not...)
Seriously, stop drinking the haterade, put the controller down for a minute, step into the real world and grow up.
@ 39
All of that GARBAGE you talked about was confirmed when you copped-out by saying "Grow Up"
If you cared you would not use that empty/played out line.
It's like saying "Act Your Age"
Congrats, dude. Make the most of it!
