GET hosed DOLVAK. Also, you're a terrible mod and human. Reddit should take your precious subreddit away and give it to a neutral 3rd party.

In other news, got back from San Diego for 2 weeks. Was a good time, flew the misses out. Ate so much Mexican food. Got drunk and had cupcakes. Now I'm home and back at work at civilian job getting essentially paid to read this thread.

Are you some sort of poor? Get a 40K monitor or gtfo, you have no business reading this thread if you aren't properly immersed.

Nah. Only with 5k. No idea why anyone would want to use something as pointless as 4k.

Also, in the verse, all monitors will be 4k. They will achieve this by faithfully emulating 4k displays for every monitor and then carefully resizing them until they are perfectly small and in the loving way of everything you're trying to do in your spaceboat.

Good, he's a poo poo stain and along with Ben the biggest reason why the community is how it is. I just hope he has a meltdown and goes full STASI.

That would be one of the best outcomes, because a "content creator" going full dictator on a subreddit and pinning his own content is just the type of thing Reddit admins love to hear about.

I checked his posting history, he's been critical in the past but doesn't strike me as a goon. SC reddit has become a nightmare of Poe and reverse-Poe. :shrug:

I still think it's not the fault of :pgi: the game turned into poo poo. After IGP (their publisher) left the game actually got decent and they started listening to their community and implementing stuff the community wanted and less features to produce more money. So I guess it could be worse.

They're actually going to sell another ship. And it's a pirate ship. Wasn't that Cutlass supposed to be a pirate ship? What happened to that?

And they're made by a company called 'Drake'. Another blindingly obvious moniker bought to you by the same unoriginal mind that created the killwrathi and vanduul. gently caress you Crobber, you loving hack.

Exactly why I'm shilling non-stop for a crackdown on trolls, at the very least it will completely alienate newcomers and if they go far enough it might get reddit involved.

IGP leaving did a lot to push the game forward, but it really wasn't until the Transverse thing that :pgi: really got on the ball. They've made huge improvements in their communication with the playerbase, how they handle feedback, and obviously they've made some pretty huge improvements in the game as well. Russ Bullock has been the source of a lot of salt, and a lot of really dumb decisions that hurt MWO, but for all his faults he's definitely trying to be better and to make MWO the best game it can be.

Plus they loving burned Nikko to the ground, which was funny and good.
