I have no interest in that. I wrote up a hypothetical comment (below) because people kept accusing me of telling how it was FUBAR, but yet I offered nothing on how to fix it.

This is not like Alganon back in 2010 whereby I got the vote of the majority shareholders and thus I was able to get in, invest, get the game done etc. That game was already almost complete and just need more money and different leadership to take it the final mile.

This is the blog comment you were looking for on how I would fix it. However, from what I know, the Star Citizen project is such a clusterfuck and so far off, that it's just beyond "saving" at this point. At least without another $100m and a different lead (Hint: not The Chairman)

Well, paps told me that Coolio is goin' to save CIG. He be performing "Gangsters in Paradise" and CR be all set, man.

Apparently according to the mods and admins, I'm a public figure. So I'm game.

Are you not? 30 years, most outspoken brother on the SC scam and all that. Thousands of posts on most recognized media outlets, you are a public figure and well known throughout the industry, you have been and continue to be.

Oh please, you know they got that like months ago. Scary scary, but remember that these are space sim fans you're talking about; if we wanted to do things in real life we wouldn't be trying to simulate it except in space on our computers all day.

Well, lets analyze this a little.
Lets go with 100 million dollars and 1 million "citizen". Averages out to about 100 bucks per. 100 bucks are not gonna hurt. I just spent the 10th of that yesterday to register here to partake in the drama and I havent downloaded the SA Arena Commander yet.
Yes, you have some heavy hitters that spent in excess of 15-20k on their "dream" but those guys are much more unlikely to commit a premeditated murder as people with those kind of funds are much more invested in life.

What I would be worried about is the single guy out of the 1 million citizen who went to bed for the past 3.5 years with a smile on his face falling asleep to the thoughts of - I don't know - exploring the galaxy, running a slave pound, being some kind of interstellar bad-rear end OG who now fears that Derek, loving with his "100 dollar investment", is going to destroy that dream. He might feel that Derek has absolutely no business loving with him and takes Derek's actions personal - because - who is Derek Smart.

See, a stable individual with some funds would reach out to some undercover brothers from the Zoe Pound, who live around the corner from DS and hit them up with 10k and that would be the end of that and cause some really hosed up memes. But that unstable white guy, in his mid 30s, husband, father, blue-color normal person would just take that step over the edge himself; from my experience there are a lot of unstable people living in Florida. So, the chances of finding a nut job you pissed off when loving with 1 million people out of the space sim / online scene are actually pretty good.

Yeah, it all played out over here and recapped here.

Well congrats, you may have yourself a win over a some guy with a GED that pulls security at Wall-Mart at night. I guess that's how you have to finance your living expanses these days? Cant be from LOD or your previous "hits" and certainly cant be from all the poo poo you throw around while under the protection of your internet connection. Word-warrior. loving word-ninja even.
