Thank gently caress they've got an actual serious professional leading the Austin PU team in the form of Tony Zurovic. If he drops out of the project before launch, it's a sure sign of the end times for CIG.

Didn't you spend $2,500 USD on a picture of a Javelin destroyer?

Dude I'm just your parachute account, but seriously- nobody here is bothered by the content of your posts. The avatar-buying is moderately entertaining only because you are spending real money to make some sort of crazy internet sperglord point, and people want to see how much you are willing to drop. The constant self-aggrandizing bullshit posts have not upset anyone- the people responding to you are tweaking you because baiting idiots into spouting crazy bullshit is what made this website great.

Your arguments are so laughably poorly constructed that most people here thought you were a fake shitposter until they saw your history. I still think you're a fake shitposter, just doing a commendably long con, because there is no way that anyone reaches adulthood and still believes half of the poo poo you profess about society, economics, morality, and life in general. On a thread about fake spaceships in a forum for video games, no less.

Your very presence here invalidates any "I am a smart and important person" defense. Your words invalidate any claim to intelligence. Your e-spending habits invalidate any pretense that you know what the gently caress you're doing with money. You have nothing. You are nothing. Embrace it. Cease to be.
