I didnt think imgur allowed deleting of content. Kind of crazy how easy it is to get them to delete stuff. Maybe the forums should move to a different host for things.

perhaps a goon-run system of distributed hosting mirrors with an innovative redundancy & load balancing scheme?

Many images in the middle of the thread haven't been touched, so it is probably someone copying the image links and pasting those into an automator.

Yeah, working on that actually. Check out the dev blog I wrote earlier today.

I think your game already exist and its called command conquer renegade. it had meaningfull ground air and vehicle combat with basebuilding orbital strikes and ion cannons.
even screenshots look similar to LOD

the game came out in 2002 and was really fun to play and frankly if you could deliver same thing LOD could be fun.
heres the problem.

some fans are already rebuilding renegade in better engine and its free

so question is what can LOD offer thats better than renegade x?

The plane does not actually land. In both the RTS and the original Renegade it simply dropped off the unit on the runway.

I'm worried that Reddit is going to take down Something Awful. This site is pretty legacy...Windows ME wasn't a very good OS...if Reddit attacks can we actually defend?

If an admin could write up a thread on upgrade goals and functionality and post some images of our architecture, I might be willing to pledge.

Samuel Elms runs a financial thing, so he might be operating a lot of companies. Not to mention CRoberts wants to be in Hollywood more than anything else. Either they are pulling money from other companies because that is where it was sent or they are creating more debt because they have a cash flow problem. And lol no. Some gaming companies have subsidiaries but you typically get the refund from company proper.

If only Milliband had eaten a vegan sausage roll instead of a bacon sandwich, we wouldn't be in this mess.
Given how many of the Reddit Star Citizen posters identify with Gamergate, I'm baffled at how often they try and accuse Derek of being one of them. Either a whole bunch of them feel really embarrassed when that gets used as an insult, or there's some serious cognitive dissonance going on.
