Illegal Move posted:This thread is not very interesting right now because the lack of star citizen content has been discussed to death and there is nothing else to discuss because of the lack of star citizen content. I found it funny because reddit twisted itself into a massive drama freakout and most of them seemed to think some grand goon conspiracy was behind it all. Goon is a dirty word over there now. Goons troll shitizens just by doing nothing at all.

If any fat and sad( or skinnyfat and sad) redditors are reading the thread, please checkout ylls. You can feel far better than you do now, and endorphins are basically heroin. Many fat goons became slim and swole, and skeleton goons became squat and swole. But they all became happier. I hope you do too Lesnick and lady Lesnick. Derek, do you like metroidvanias?

From my experience they will, to a degree, but only when you discuss SC outside of SA. Mainly they'll leave you be. Other than the occasional rear end in a top hat on twitter. More importantly though, don't let those douche nozzles dictate what you do.

Still have the odd retard telling everyone they don't understand software development and how no visible progress is completely normal, but they're in the minority. It's really striking how skeptical the official forums are now. Indeed

I had one stalk my steam profile. The really odd part was that my steam name was some random poo poo name to annoy one of my friends. He went off the deep end pretty quick and i probably should have reported him to valve for the posts. but i didnt becuase i think SC backers are just sad that they know their game isnt gonna happen.

Tijuana Bibliophile posted:A while ago a hedgehog walked up to me and began nibbling at my toes Hedgehogs don't have a lot of natural predators, the biggest being the Badger. They use their claws to scrape out the squishy bits from the spiky skin. Since Badgers started getting it in the neck, the biggest problem a hedgehog faces is the car. Adaption has left the hedgehog with incredibly noisy mating habits as well; the male chases the female around for hours making very loud snuffly noises.

Meanwhile, in Elite... I can only imagine Chris' horror when epic moments spontaneously happen in Braben's game. Chris fakes his epic gameplay moments with 'in engine' videos and has gotten so much mileage out of it... but so little comes out of the gameplay itself that they instead industrialize their glitch video output and panhandle for backer videos, hoping that somebody, anybody, managed to record themselves doing something interesting in their boring rear end game...

Problem: CIG is not releasing anything parpworthy. I rather wonder & suspect that they have focus groups or whatever (using backer money?) who have told them that SA is dictating the narative, eg: Pgabz takes the piss out of the awful Freelancer cockpit letterbox viewhole thing, and lo and behold, next patch it's slightly larger. Now let's not all get swelled heads, CIG have and are killing through moderator control/bans any kind of discussion of SC shortcomings on the RSI forums. By doing this they are achieveing two things: alienating a small but significant number of backers who have decided to come here because we have free speech & giving an illusion to the outside world that eveything is fine, nothing to see here. SA has effectively taken the interwebs high ground, shooting down at the joke that is SC - there can be few regular RSI forum posters who are not aware of Goons Taking The Piss. CIG solution: diminish news/content release. They have realised (from watching the thread) that if they stay silent that we eat ourselves on slow news days/weeks... months... and end up circlejerking about Bens weight or other irrelevant poo poo. Remember that we are - to borrow a highbrow term - speaking truth to power. None of the regular news outlets are willing to be the first to jump: as has been pointed out ad infinitum on previous pages of the thread the games journalists will not, until it is blindingly obvious, dare to do any kind of hit piece on SC. Solution: Post Catte pics, recipies, silly vids (looking at you Pgabz) hosed about with classic art, etc. We need to generate content like they can't while we wait for them to produce their lovely content for us to mock at least, that's what I "think".

B_of_InfoRedux posted:I'll agree it is good if its making others think about their own situation. As the same time though can it not also be argued that it inadvertently shames others as well? This happens every year. CIG goes all out with content (and hilarity) during the November/December timeframe, and then magically when the new year happens there is nothing to talk about for months. When that happens the thread inevitably descends into badposting and talking about stupid poo poo... like how lovely the thread is. People make fun of Ben because he's an easy target. I don't like it (and personally I try to avoid it), but he is the face of CIG and what little content we do have typically involves him to some extent. We could make fun of him for being a liar or a sycophant, but all of that ground is well tread. We could make fun of Dolvak for being a spineless coward, but that has run its course as well. We could make fun of Sandi being a callous narcissist who thrives on the misery of others, but there's only so many times you can be astounded at how truly terrible a person is before you lose interest. We could be making fun of Star Citizen but what's the point? Goons thrive on novelty and at this point Ben struggling to get off a couch and Dolvak running with his tail between his legs is the closest thing we have to something new. Nothing is going to change unless CIG reveals something new and interesting. As for helping the "perception of this thread" who the gently caress cares? We're Goons, we're horrible people, and frankly giving a poo poo about what a bench of self-entitled spaceship addicts thinks of us is a terrible idea.

This is a huge step. It's how I beat smoking. The car was really the worst. I bought a new one and stopped smoking in it. I stopped smoking at the computer. I stopped smoking at work. Then when I stopped smoking it was really easy! You're on the right path!

Everything is better than just going "Oh he's just a bit big boned." "He's a big man." Though one doesn't have to swing to the other end of that balance. The Ben_rising.gif is more of a  then actually being funny.At least that's how I see it.
