I was also hoping for something so stupid, so blatant that it caused everybody to go "wow! This is a mess of lies!" And we'd get that huge onrush of instant gratification as everybody wakes up simultaneously and CIG goes crazy while the gates burn. The Disney ending. :)

Also was prompted by Derek and his ELE every week. I figured at least one of those would work out.

We've had:
1: Chris Roberts on film proving himself he's a terrible leader.
2: Complete lack of vision.
3: Bens website. :(
4: Sandi lying about her experience and schooling out the nose.
5: 15 shell companies designed only for shady business dealings.
6: Customer service that literally has a database of marked customers.
7: The company seeks people out outside of their forums and records their behavior, even using it against them.
8: No real progress towards any promises, game doesn't match what people were told it would be.
9: Endless stream of failures.
10: Complete inability to deliver anything on time.
11: Literally abandoned giving people timelines because of failure.
12: Engine change out of nowhere.
13: Calling completely hidden and concealed development "open development".
14: Even today nobody knows what even basic game functions will be, 10 players will give 10 different answers.
15: Game is a barely there tech demo, nearly 5 years in and millions of dollars later.
16: Absolutely cut throat marketing.
17: Company is more concerned with ship sales than game development.
18: Constant art theft everywhere you look.

I'm sure there's more, but less than this would probably spell doom for most Kickstarter projects. This list of crap is things Star Citizen has not only survived, but continued to profit through in millions of dollars.

I don't think anything can stop it outside of releasing something terrible to the general public or Chris Roberts giving up the project. I don't even think an announcement to deploy to Xbox or PS4 would be an ELE.

Star Citizen may be a thing for a few more years now. I don't know, but I don't think anything can "be uncovered" that would be enough to stop anything. :shrug:

Well, when you spell it out like that...yea, I just...if any one person hasn't yet gotten the message after all this, they likely never will.

Or at least...that's where my one last hope resides ofc. That people can no longer identify with the main public faces of CIG, in terms of character as opposed to actions, to the degree that they can no longer trust their money to them. But even that will be done on the individual level, and not en masse the way it'd have to for it all to end, so yeah...it's back to the two outcomes you posted earlier.

I think someone cleaned them out afterwards. You can see that some of them were still around. I guess whoever is paying him didn't appreciate me mentioning how five years of development means the "first iteration" argument was bullshit.

But i dont think its stuff that belongs to star citizen thread.
People change overtime, maybe wtfosaurus found chris(t) and stopped doing coke. Who knows.
This thread is all about the church of chris roberts.
Not about stuff people were before they joined the church of roberts.

I think it's pretty telling that Star Citizen is so devoid of content that this thread can spend a full day talking about how creepy that guy was on a livestream that had nothing to do with SC.

Might also be that this thread is so obsessed with SC that you'll look for anything, anything at all to talk about to the point that people are doxxing random SC streamers

You do seem to have a habit of defending people like Deloria. Trying to smokescreen what they got caught doing with broken concern type stuff.

I wasn't around for the kiddie diddlers time in the thread. Why do I feel like there'll be some concerned "non defense" of them if i search through some history?

New thread title is timely,

"[–]hymen_destroyer 12 points 3 hours ago

Plead your case to CiG. You wont get any sympathy here. You weren't exploiting a glitch with the game itself, you downloaded a third-party cheat (most of us, including CiG already knew this cheat existed) and used it in an online multiplayer mode. Maybe you had fun doing it but you ruined the game for everyone else in your server, and now the only reason you're being repentant is because you got caught. You are a pariah in this community, since the court of public opinion has deemed you guilty of being a dirty no-good cheater. Hopefully you will take something away from this"

Y'all must really, really hate Star Citizen.

The failures in common sense you must constantly employ to argue everything they make is garbage even though you spent $300k on the same jpgs earlier. The surrendering of moral and ethical grounds one would have for any stranger because it targets someone tangentally related to the project... just incredible.

keep hating guys, just remember. you made star citizen happen

Well if we're going to nitpick, that one was a case of someone genuinely coming across a local news article about someone who featured in the thread then mentioning it. Same with the other examples, afaik. Mae Demming in particular. God bless goons for being able to genuinely stumble across poo poo like that.

To be clear, I think it's weird to see someone who's got a different opinion than you about a video game then try to dig up dirt on them from their personal life instead of just like.... disagreeing with them.

Look, you're perfectly able to do it anyway and ignore my opinion on the subject. You don't have to justify yourself to me. I am going to tell you that I think it's a weird thing to do though. Sorry. Feel free to disregard what I am saying.
