Yeah wheelchair guy, go ahead and spit in the face of the bear that's staring you down. That seems like a good plan for a guy who can't run.

Fish Fry Andy posted:Hmmm I'm glad he read through this entire thread, now knows that Derek Smart wants to sue him over jpegs and is still like "yeah this is entirely worth my time." I'm no internet lawyer but if this kid is actually opening his arsehole up for a law-loving then calling the dad would actually be the cool option. Because we all know that just ignoring it isn't a possibility given the parties in question.

I don't think the "cooks in the kitchen" scenario applies to development very well. All the cooks in a real kitchen are doing the same thing, which is preparing x item for consumption. Game development consists of developers sure, but they are the builders and architects of the underlying framework that the ~idea~ (which is to say, the game) is portrayed on. Not only must the idea makers and the builders perform optimally, but also the PR team, the web team, the art team, the customer service team, and the list goes on ad nauseum as you venture into the MMO genre (otherwise known as career suicide for most developers). So alluding to a bunch of cooks arguing in a kitchen - which never happens in real practice because their roles are always pretty clearly defined - is a bit short sighted

kordansk posted:Okay real post. There is absolutely a line here. That line is crossed when you actually go out of your way to personally threaten someone. Mocking Sandi because of some random story about pubes, or the complete lack of progress on the game, or the fact that they can't keep project managers or middle/upper level management employed, or the fact that refunds are coming from random companies that you never sent money to, or... I can keep going... none of that is harmful. When you create a campaign that actively targets an individual and begins reporting their social media because you don't agree with them, or you threaten to 'destroy' someone because you disagree with their assessment of your obsession with a game, you have taken it too far. D_Smart posted:So our new contender for my WIP blog (latest PDF export) on the abusive White Knights in the Star Citizen community, is Nick Butler (that's him in the wheelchair) aka /user/NitroTypat/ aka @Bipii_4084. Individual to individual threat? Check. Social media reporting? Check. Legalese that's by all means more threatening than online threats of incredibly unlikely violence? Check. Surely you can see Smart's pursuit of total nobodies (and this thread's gleeful support for it) leans uncomfortably close to the brown sea poo poo you described. And I'd say the same wheelchair or not. It's the cultists' own fault and they deserve it, but SC goons are losing their moral high ground pretty drat quickly. Goons are now rolling in the poop and eating it and adding their own poop to the pile. Half this thread has now become the entertainment.

Cpt Underpants posted:I think Dolvak may have sought legal advice and was told to delete because we know Derek never ever keeps copies of things in case this happens. They are a known hater of Something Awful and they said as much in one of those deleted posts while using official mod-speak on the Star Citizen subreddit. As if. I'm sure that by now they've figured that I'm simply not bluffing or playing around. TheLastRoboKy posted:Derek's already shown he'll let people that are (by their own admission) working hard to smear him off the hook if they just apologise and move back from the keyboard-warrior poo poo, I think it's fairly safe to say as more and more of these idiots making the bad decision to publicly declare they're going to ruin Derek get dragged into the light the more we'll just see that as an easy out for them that gives Derek everything he wants out of this situation. MeLKoR posted:God drat, this is a pretty dumb kid. Amethyst posted:It's incredible how easy it is to reduce the big hard internet men of Star Citizen crew into puddles of tears when you suggest that maybe stalking a wheelchair bound cripple isn't a cool and badass thing to do. Perhaps the tightneing you feel in your chest when confronted with your own shortcomings should be harnessed for personal growth, rather than going into a panic and posting the loving get out frog 12 times in a row. Amethyst posted:Hmmmmmmm yes, it's perfectly reasonable to dox a kid, and publish his personal details on a hugely trafficked forum, because he left a bunch of negative reviews on steam. I am a Rational human being who does not stuff magazines up his rear end as soon as I get home every night Maldoror posted:I don't consider the 19 year old kid in question to be any different than anyone else. If I was in a wheelchair I would not want people helping me or holding the door for me or treating me special or different or say things like "let him say whatever he wants, he's special, he lost life, his life sucks, etc., leave him be." To me, THAT would be discrimination I wouldn't want. I would want to be taken as seriously on the Internet as any other rear end clown, as I would in life. kordansk posted:Okay real post.

DSMART MD DDS PHD literally is the only one in this so called fight with CIG, and he can do whatever the gently caress he wants with his money and his lawyers for all I care. It is his time and energy and money spent. But don't sit here and equate the rest of us to Derek's crusade. If we were to stoop to the level of those idiot reddit cultists we would have to be reporting all of them to reddit to get banned, or actually doxxing them and using it for malicious purposes like attacking their place of work, or causing financial difficulties for them. This ridiculous Smart Shart War is only between him and RSI, and any of those loving morons that keep inserting themselves as cannon fodder for RSI are literally falling on their own swords for no reason. Here's the thing. I don't loving care if he's in a wheelchair or has lost both legs or has a metal plate on the side of his scalp. Being disabled doesn't make you a better person nor exempt from consequences. There are hardcore criminals wheelchair bound, amputees etc sitting in jail. When you go online and act like an rear end-clown, abusing, cyberbullying and cyberharassing someone - all illegal and not to be confused with Free Speech - the law doesn't loving care if you are handicapped or not. Civil and criminal consequences are real. Here is a small section of this "kids" impressive dossier of cyberharassment. Oh, and there's this montage. And within the next 24hrs, if he doesn't apologize and promise to disengage from this pattern of conduct, it's all going to his Dad, along with a letter from my attorney. And I have no doubt that he's a bully at school as well. So my guess is that his principal would be delighted to get a letter from an attorney as well. Unlike Dolvak, Wulf et al, I have no intentions of suing him. These morons think that I'm capable of taking on corporations, yet they are above my radar? That's just stupidity laced with arrogance. That's why I'm lining all of them up and setting an example of why it's a dumb idea to gently caress with Derek Smart. Aside from that, ALL of these things are associated STAR CITIZEN and its toxic community. So all they are doing is hurting the game and the community. They are not hurting me because they simply do not have the capacity to do that. Ever. Karl_Ramseier posted:Hmm, I think I am gonna give this kid some infos about your lawsuits (starting with the parentship one, don't you think?) and other personal info, let's see at which point someone thinks gently caress it and publish it all. Be my guest. Anything that's in the public record, is open season. I have nothing to hide and I don't care. That sort of thing neither fazes nor scares me. When people break the law, that's when the gloves come off. Your hollow threats are just that: hollow. And meaningless. And inconsequential. And dumb. FYI dumbass, there is no "parentship lawsuit". It's called a "legal paternal petition" and is used to establish paternity for children with dual-citizenship, child support, setting up trusts, private school placement etc. And the details are sealed (you make it public, I guarantee that that you will end up behind bars) in order to protect minor children.

Why the gently caress even bother with attorneys and litigation? Save that poo poo for CIG - they're the ones ultimately deserving of it the most. Assuming you actually even get there, that is.

The way I remember it going was that Prencleeve doxxed several Goons first after he got scammed in EVE, going so far as to harass their family/co-workers about how "mean and evil" they were in a video game. Then Goons retaliated with their own "hey, your kid needs help." Prencleeve doing it first also got himself permabanned from EVE for harassment for a few years before, supposedly, he was able to convince CCP he changed and to no ones surprised he is still obsessed with Goons etc. Mekchu fucked around with this message at 17:19 on Oct 28, 2015 |

D_Smart posted:^this. That is all. None of them are actually doing those things. They're talking about them like morons on a public forum, because they're internet tough guys. Meanwhile we're just... uh... planning how to call them IRL and humiliate them in front of dad, or making them take down their dumb edited video of you saying you have a small dick. You know, tasteful stuff.

That is all. fine derek if thats what you want to do, but it has the comedic value of you cutting off your dick and planting the severed penis into someones birthday cake. its only horrifically funny, and the people staring arent thinking favorably of you, everyone just loves a good trainwreck. You may be right, and swatting is loving serious I'm just saying you might pick a better target for funsies. my stupid opinion. I dont care what you do, you will just look like an asshat even if you are 100% completely right.

Agrajag posted:none of us are going out of our way to harass anyone on twitter or making subreddits targeting specific people with the intent of doing some sort of harm physical or financial. so, i think we are safe mr outrage In a way, the advantage over reddit here is if you speak up and people don't like it, they can quote and mock you, but they can not "downvote" i.e. make what you said disappear. This downvoting serves the creation of an echo chamber quite well and supports extreme behaviour as only those supporting it will be read. Plus I have a feeling most people in this thread don't actually take all this serious, at least not after they got their money out via refund. The only person really invested (see what I did there?!) is Bootcha, and I hope that works out OK for him.

Wheelchair or not acting like an assclown on the internet has repercussions. I'm not for or against Derek doing whatever he wants to that's his prerogative but this kid gotta realize that goons even saying this is low are not on his side. When you say poo poo like thinking we want to be cool with you doesn't justify your actions. Don't be an rear end in a top hat on the internet. Public figure or not that does not give you a free pass to antagonize them constantly because they hurt your fee fees.

Actually when I was in high school there was a 20 something year old kid who had FAS or something who had his electric wheelchair taken away because he was ramming people with it all the time. He had to go with crutches for the rest of the year.
