Independently Operated and Community Owned

About DoPpleGang

A community-first gaming network built around fairness, stability, reliable hosting and long-term enjoyment.

Who We Are

DoPpleGang is an independently operated gaming community created to give players a stable, fair and welcoming place to play together.

The community is supported by reliable servers, original systems, active volunteers and decisions centred on protecting the shared player experience.

Our Origins

Built from Experience

DoPpleGang was founded by people with years of experience helping to manage large communities across both ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended.

Over time, we became frustrated with communities being shaped by commercial priorities, unreliable services and decisions that placed profit ahead of players.

DoPpleGang was created to offer something different: a community-owned, independently operated network where fairness, stability and the player experience come first.

Our Purpose

Why DoPpleGang Exists

DoPpleGang exists to provide a stable, fair and welcoming gaming community where players can enjoy long-term progression without unnecessary drama, unreliable services or pressure to pay.

Everything we operate and develop is intended to protect the shared player experience and benefit the community as a whole.

Community Owned

DoPpleGang is owned by the DoPpleGang community. Everything related to DoPpleGang remains the property of the entire community and exists for its collective benefit.

Community First

New systems, maps and improvements are introduced to benefit the wider community rather than any single person.

Independent Premium Hosting

The ARK network runs on private premium hardware rather than Nitrado, allowing direct control, rapid recovery after updates and dependable operation.

All Official Maps

DoPpleGang aims to provide every official ARK: Survival Ascended map, with new official maps added as they become available.

Original Community Systems

DoP_BOT and DoP_SirCom are developed specifically for DoPpleGang, providing account linking, rewards, player services, monitoring and community support.

Free to Play

Joining, playing and progressing never require payment. Community support is voluntary and goes back into keeping the network running.

Fair Community Management

Staff are volunteers. Reports are handled privately where practical, decisions are based on available evidence and the priority is protecting the wider player experience.

Built to Last

DoPpleGang is designed as a long-term community, with dependable servers, original systems and ongoing development intended to support players well into the future.
