 Derek, I think he just threatened to "scaze" you. I don't know what that means but it sounds scary and I hope you mount a vigorous legal defense.

That was a reference to Alan Bexter from RSI forums, who declared war on goons and launched nukes.

flyboi posted: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. Being cool and being a full on cult of croberts fanatic, wheels or not, seem mutually exclusive.

As a side effect of all of this, the spergs in the SC/reddit community have basically (lol) turned on us as a whole as well. For better or for worse, SA, and this thread, is more or less viewed as an extension of Dr. Smart's will and vendetta. The confirmation bias is strong. There are plenty of goons here that are indifferent, some who are opposed to the drama and shenanigans, and some who are actually still rooting for SC. But the brown sea only sees the people that are trashing SC and supporting Dr. Smart. I'm sure the confirmation bias is just as strong at CIG as well, has posted multiple times in regards to how he views SA and goons as a whole as a malicious cancer, and Sandi we know reads this thread. Beer getting banned is only a symptom of that.Dolvak has been obsessively moderating out ANY threads in the SC subreddit regarding this issue as well, cowed in large part my Dr. Smart. Another has wholly apologized. While these are minor "victories" for Dr. Smart, it has polarized the community even further. The goon "hivemind" has done plenty to enrage video game communities before, but this is vitriolic at its highest. We're insulated by a desire to really only play games with each other and kept entertained by the ability for us to go into any game we want with a few dozen other  patriots and have a good time, but this episode is going to go down in video game subculture history as one of the biggest ideological wars in some time. EVE goons may have enraged people in the past, I know in AA we caused some pretty outrageous poo poo to be written about us, but SC is a game that has had major publicity coverage, and I think it's a matter of time before The Escapist and others start to write about all the drama going on, because it's good clickbait entertainment.If you're here talking sense and trying to calm things down, you're yelling into a hurricane. You're lumped into it with the rest of us as staunchly and militantly anti-SC. You're a Dr. Smart supporter regardless of your feelings on him. I've seen a lot of ironic posting here, lots of funnies, and good entertainment trolling by goons, but the brown sea is frothing into an actual rage. I imagine it's going to get "worse" from here.

Also to those saying "b-b-b-but disabled people can't be bullies!" http://krebsonsecurity.com/2014/05/teen-arrested-for-30-swattings-bomb-threats/comment-page-1/ Feel free to read through that if you don't remember the Canadian arrested for SWATing. Surprise! He has a mental disability. Also in high school there was a severe autistic kid who was obsessed with ECW and in constant trouble for saying extremely inappropriate things to people and promptly beating them up.

Over a month since refund request was submitted. 33 days since I got anything other than an automated "We haven't forgotten about you!" reply to my ticket. Is there anyone out there with a ticket number higher than 133k that's gotten their poo poo resolved yet?
