Now I spilled my coffee over the whole bed.
That's him with the espresso!

So they got their early investors to play the waiters? That's perhaps why people spend thousands of dollars on spaceship pics. "Here, please sign this contract. Ah yes the money, thanks. Now please could you serve me an espresso? And go buy some beer."

If this is real, you're the biggest idiot I ever came across. I can't stop laughing. But hey this raess guy in the forum tend to believe you, perhaps I should tell him about this new discovery.

Ok, let's get this straight:
A public picture is proof for you being an investor? That might be enough for DS, but not for me. Why don't you show us the signed contract? This shouldn't matter anyway after you identified yourself and acknowledged that Sandi is a racist motherfucking bitch.
If they don't slap you in the face for what you did here they never ever won't.
But please just bring me the milk, would you?

I especially like Karl's theory that Bootcha's posts about Star Citizen going back 3+ years—including photos of him using his pickup to cart around Wing Commander movie set pieces for Lesnick (IIRC; it was so long ago)—were all just an elaborate long con in the event that the project went south.

Sound reasoning there.

But seriously it's pretty obvious that Karl's trying to get Bootcha to break NDA and is angling for any way to do get him to do that.

This is a person that literally wants to see someone else lose thousands of dollars out of sheer malice. Not like a bunch of chucklefucks watching CR scam people and laughing at them while warning people not to trust him, he's in this to actively and maliciously harm someone financially because they criticized a theoretical videogame he preordered.

Just like Raess2014, come to think of it.

Like, everyone knows Derek Smart is a blowhard who lives up to his reputation, but when you set that aside he's still a better person than this Karl_Ramsmeier guy.

And that's even funnier because he thinks he's this awesome puppet master with the 10 alt accounts and he's gonna ruin everyone that is threatening The Vision when in reality he's a transparent moron.

Like if Karl and Raess and matilda were all just one evil little pissant that's fine, but if they really are all separate people then the Star Citizen community is the most hosed up place to be, with a bunch of sleazy Germans who clearly type English as an obvious second language. The implications of buying this guy's bullshit makes Star Citizens look even worse than they already do.

Also I don't care that matilda is or isn't Raess/Karl, but when Raess posts on the RSI forums that "gee wouldn't it be nice if this Bootcha guy broke NDA and got his investment taken away from him" and then immediately after Karl comes in here saying to Bootcha "I don't think you're an investor, why don't you break your NDA and give more definitive proof you are," how the gently caress is anybody supposed to interpret this? Besides the fact that this person is the absolute scum of the earth.

What I'm saying is that hey, Citizens! You're even worse than goons. Congrats on that.

I was, and still am to a certain extent, one of the spergiest Wing Commander spergs. I kinda consider myself Patient Zero to this whole Star Citizen thing.

You can safely ignore Karl/Raess2009 as he's pretending he's not Raess2014, who are both auditors, obsessed with goons, they go to extreme lengths to defend Star Citizen and were born in Germany in same year, in the same month on the same day.

Derek will probably chime in with info. I personally have a guess but I just don't like speculating too much without solid data, and really, her potential misrepresenting of her age is a pretty minor offense in the grand scheme. It's probably the most sympathetic lie she would tell (because we all know Hollywood has no use for unknown female properties in their 30s or above.)

I will say that Sandi herself has created a biography so full of contradictions that, if nothing else, we should know better than to trust her as a reliable source. She lies about herself-- a lot-- and brags about herself just as much. How she reached this age-- whatever it is-- without learning that true confidence in self doesn't require perpetual acts of self-congratulation ("I'm currently reading LotR in French", "I train in MMO twice a week with a Six Dan Blackbelt", etc.), attention seeking (like dressing way too provacatively for work), misrepresentation of self (educational credentials / age / professional accomplishments) and alleged humiliation of subordinates (The Escapist accounts) is the bigger mystery to me.

Bootcha until you get your money back, don't be tricked into doing anything that CIG might attempt to use as justification for keeping it, they are quite good at that.

Karl has been lying throughout his time here and there should be no requirement on your part to provide more detail on what's going on with your money, considering he's been lying about his.

Besides, what are the odds that Karl and Raess are two completely different German auditors who behave like assholes in the same way with the same opinions on everything?

T.G. Xarbala posted:

He's proven himself to be a morally worse person than he even considers Derek Smart to be so gently caress'im.

Like, everyone knows Derek Smart is a blowhard who lives up to his reputation, but when you set that aside he's still a better person than this Karl_Ramsmeier guy. And Raess2014/2015. And whoever matilda2013 is, whose name clearly predates Raess2014 by a year but oh no though they're also on a crusade against all of CIG's critics they're certainly not the same guy as those other two identical German assholes trying to "destroy" Bootcha, heavens that would be absurd.
