That worked out so well when they released the Arena Commander when Elite went into beta.

I know for a fact that I spent 2 years reading SA without an account, with about two 3-month paywall breaks inbetween. And they weren't timed around any particular drama I could detect (well...maybe Dangan Ronpa, but like I care...)

lowtax's collaboration with Rifftrax, and the main pages' repeated reviewing of b-movies (i.e., hard ticket to hawaii ,zombie 90: extreme pestilence , etc.), is the only reason i have an account.* it was basically "woaaah, you like bad movies AND bad video games? sold!"

* All this poo poo with Star Citizen is infinitely more funny than the previously mentioned stuff though, so i am an incredibly happy person.

I recall this happening in some MMO (Age of Wushu I think) that provided a ton of stories in the grieving thread. Throwing up liquor on other players to forcibly make them drunk, tricking players in to killing goons which would result in a bounty that put them in jail for like a week real time (execution and castration was added later), surprise murder plots on fishermen, etc. Goons can get pretty drat creative and it's fun to read the resulting insanity. I am all for the idea.

I would also recommend keeping Ken White at http://www.popehat.com involved as this may be of worthy mention for many in the legal community to follow as it involves TOS/EULA issues and developing crowdfunding kickstarter law and rights

Edit: Apparently Ken already did a post on Star Citizen on Oct. 4: https://popehat.com/2015/10/04/in-space-no-one-can-hear-you-threaten-lawsuits/ He kidna shits on you but only on reputation, but also CIG as to the merits, so at least it's fair to everyone.
