SirPhoebos posted:Y'know what? gently caress it - I'm gonna let the Chicago sports world know what a dishonest turd Chris Roberts is next Thursday. AP would have the quote, it is from this Wednesday's subscriber RTV. Scruffpuff posted:It could be, but even if Chris was honestly the most successful game developer in history, and his games, including SC, met or exceeded every benchmark ever made, and was ushering in a whole new era of gaming - even if all that were true, he should not have shat on his industry peers. It's a small industry - you show humility, you thank your backers, and you respect your peers. The fact that he's talking like this while also being an inept fraud is beyond inappropriate. I'd say we've got a good Icarus fall story coming, but even Icarus got off the ground first. Chris is still pasting feathers together, telling us all about that Daedalus hack, and how much better his wings will be when finished. His antics are beyond scummy, we are heading towards a Greek tragedy dénouement like no other:" those who the gods wish to destroy they first make proud" etc. Etc. The savior of PC gaming...

AP posted:Interesting but why wouldn't Derek be able to mention it, even if only hinting? Because if only a few people know, and Derek says specifically what it is, they now have a very small number of people one of whom they know for a fact is a mole. As it stands, Derek has been predicting doom for so long, and with such generic terms, and CIG has been loving up so constantly, that even if they suspected that Derek knew something specific, there's no way to pin down what that is with enough certainty to accuse Colonel Mustard of using the candlestick in the conservatory.

Here's how truly stupid Chris Roberts is: -Star Citizen cannot exist with current PC technology with the fidelity and scope envisioned -He married Sandi. -He simply cannot control himself, his boasting, or from making additional promises even when faced with complete project failure -He spits on birthday cakes when he tries to blow on them -He married Sandi. Again. -When it has become clear that neither he nor his company can survive, he doesn't take the money and flee the country, but instead sticks around to make additional boasts and promises In short: he dumb.

Hmm, could be, but if something terrible happens at the same time Derek says something terrible is happening that's a good indication he knows. On the other hand I imagine terrible stuff really does happen daily there.

Loiosh posted:I think what EightAce says about basically all of their work being on SC42 is why there's nothing doing on the PU side. The little notes here or there are not showing movement towards a better product, just a lot of minimal bug fixing. What's your opinion on SQ42's script? Are you excited for another Chris Roberts adventure?

Is your cat a fascist? I'm curious how he got to be like that, there is not a glint of affection in his eyes. Aside from that he is a fine, healthy looking cat though and probably excellent at killing birds and everything else in his path

Toops posted:Did we detect any leavers? If I had bailed I wouldn't put anything on twitter until I'd secured and then started on a new job. The only reason to say you left publicly is to make CIG look bad, as that's the only result and why would you want the grief? Currently no evidence doesn't mean much, if nothing slips out for a week that's different, as people talk no matter what.

He looks meaner than that Belgian fascist that knocked the gently caress out of glasses guy. Is your cat a fascist? Two possible causes: 1. He ate rat poison as a kitten and almost died. 2. The other cat in the house was mean as gently caress and hated him. I've never seen a cat like him, he just wants to loving murder people he doesn't know. If he were a human he would be a serial killer.

As of 1st January 2016, Visa Inc. is restructuring its chargeback and fraud programs. Overview In order to simplify operations, Visa Inc. will integrate the current regional and global programs into two new fraud and chargeback monitoring programs: Visa Chargeback Monitoring Program (VCMP) Visa Fraud Monitoring Program (VFMP) Main changes: Faster identification To eliminate the 60-to-90 day reporting lag, all programs will be based on reported fraud and sales of the previous month. Uniform program ratios and timelines This change will help merchants to align domestic and global metrics, timelines and fees across all markets. New rules and policies Merchants will be defined as either ‘Standard merchants’ or ‘High-Risk merchants’ There are separate programs for each classification (details of classification below).
