You're Scott, right?

It was pretty even-handed and fairly substantive-- which is pretty rare in Star Citizen coverage. I think it's a good "where is Star Citizen/CIG post Citcon?" recap.

I thought it was fair to all parties concerned-- even Derek. Choosing to stay neutral on such a divisive issue is pretty thankless, but as with Allen Stroud's recent "Code Red" article, I was really grateful to see it.

A few brave souls are trying to popularize ' -ghazi', but it's slow going and if they succeed it's just replacing one tired meme with another.

One thing that I'm wondering is where was CitizenCon held previously? I'm guessing it wasn't the hanger of a defunct SST or I would have seen that brought up.

This actually sounds pretty plausible. I've worked with a number of dysfunctional software engineering teams and it's pretty obvious when the devs are just phoning it in to pick up a check and run down the clock, and the (shitastic) project managers try to put a pretty spin on everything to pretend like something's getting done. "See, look at this huge list of things we accomplished this week!" <insert list of useless filler crap>. It's the project management version of double-spaced lines on a school essay.

gently caress goons and DS. Assholes are everywhere and while there might be a banner for people to follow that doesn't change the reality that people are assholes. No name is needed for that. If there wasn't a group called goon+(whatever) people would still exist. This long endless talk about goons and something awful is annoying. DS is a douche and talking about him is more credit than he deserves but Goons are just another name for people you run into too drat often. Good or bad doesn't matter.
