Is it a fat joke to point out how Ben can barely touch his hands together and probably needs assistance to wipe his own rear end?

Good thing he is married then. Of course, that means he has to wipe hers...

Is it a fat joke to say that seeing Ben's weight gain over the last 2 years was one of my major inspirations to go on a Keto diet in the Fall of last year? Because it totally was- I'm not close to that size, but I'd put on a lot of weight over the last decade of desk jobitude and I never want to feel the way he looks like he feels, all the time. I am currently down about 30 pounds from my start point and feeling pretty good about it.

Anyway Dolvak is a tool. Hi Dolvak! How does it feel to read every page even though you viscerally hate every one of us, and then go to reddit and pretend to be impartial knowing that is the most transparent lie imaginable? Why does the fat shaming bother you Dolvak? Are you super fat, Dolvak? When was the last time you saw your penis, Dolvak? Journalists are on the line waiting for this information.

Way to go dude, losing 30 pounds takes some work. I hold out hope that Ben will quit CIG, write a tell all book and go make a weight loss thread in SA's YLLS/TFLC fitness sub forums. Getting fit is completely possible for people that heavy, SA has a few success stories from people even heavier last I checked. I lost over 100 several years ago because of the information and support on those boards

I think the "power" and "status" of being king poo poo of a (sad, broken) community prevents any possible change for Ben. From some of his moderator posts that end up here you can tell he really loving relishes that illusion of authority and influence. Still i agree with GORF he is ultimately tragic as hell and hope he can salvage his real life after the fantasy goes up in flames

I've been wary of making comments about his weight and staying out of personal issues like that, but it'd be irresponsible if his employer didn't intervene. I work in a different field, but it's similar (tightly knit creative biz) and I thank my boss (and mentor) for basically ordering me to eat right and exercise. And my weight problem was on the opposite end.

Ironically, the only reason anything at all has been done thus far is because the clueless gently caress has been tucked nicely out of the way stateside or in one of his many mo cap studios.
With him around micromanaging everything at F42 production will now grind to a juddering halt and key people will start to leave the UK outfit.
Man, that sucks all around.

I've said it before but drat, if there's a scenario where Foundry can succeed while Chris and Sandi fail, that's the one I'm rooting for.

There's no way their egos could let that happen.

The only thing that might save save F42 is there's no loving way Sandi would ever live in Manchester. It's basically bizzaro world LA, the exact opposite in every meaningful sense.

A French magazine wrote a 12 page article talking poo poo about Croberts and sc that goons are still translating and reddit refuses to beleive it's a negative article even though it's glaringly obvious it is.

Also you can buy fish but the game doesn't support having more than one in a tank. Seriously.

Some dude that's mad at goons cause he posted "proof" that sa doxxes people that was called fake, yet wouldn't validate beers emails with Sandi.

Everyone at INN sounds like a bunch of whiney little bitches that pout when they don't get their way but ignore everyone else when the same standard is held against them. They also look like pasty white overgrown man children. Lol.

There will also be mobiglas minigames that can be played in solo or together as a crew.

Chores and minigames.
