You did link a parody right? I first thought it were the crappy Kindle Speakers that made this sound so bad. There is no way this is the real deal? Right? :ohdear:

can they do anything good at all besides fleecing money from idiot nerds

Ben has converted simple carbohydrates into triglycerides like a champ, that's something right?

edit: also seraph keeps pledging :10bux: to shitpost here, that's "good" in a way too, for Lowtax at least.

Sandi probably wrote it. She's a song writer too, you know! She probably has some paperwork to back that up somewhere around the office.

Actually I think that when people call Elite boring, they're really criticizing the general lack of an over-arching structure to the game. If you want it to provide you with a story, a purpose, etc. it's not going to do that. It literally drops you in a ship in a space station and says "have fun". It wants you to make your own goals... and for a lot of people that boils down to "get a new ship". That puts focus on money grinding and that gets dull quickly.

This sums E:D up really well, and hits the nail on the head for me personally as well. I bought the lifetime expansion pass though, so hopefully something good will eventually come out.

What happens is that someone wants the referral rewards. They then create several dummy accounts and buy a package on each using the referral code of their main account. Once created, the goods are gifted over to the main account, where the ships are melted and they buy a Sabre or something, or sell the credits off at 80%.

I must be thick, how is that 'backfiring' if suckers are buying packages on dummy alt accounts and gifting them to themselves?

From Crobert's point of view it works out the same either way, correct? I mean it's still cash coming in, so who cares if it's not actually new people. As long as someone is paying for the coke and pube trimmers who gives a poo poo.

As we're all pretty much aware that whales have several accounts each and CIG still claimed 1 million citizens while knowing it was bollocks. I don't think it's going to bother CIG at all.

It was pretty hilarious when someone in chat pointed out there was only like 25,000 people actually watching the stream of CitCon.

I guess the other 975,000 Citizens were too busy. :allears:

Elite Dangerous and soon to be Rebel Galaxy. Both things that are fun and good and real.

I played Rebel Galaxy for 84 minutes, and then sent a steam request for a refund. :(

I just didn't get it. The unoriginal weapons, the boring flight model, and mission bugs put me right off. Plus I nearly had an epileptic fit from the flashing neon lights the fill the whole game. :pcgaming:

Every time I read it it gets worse, when he talks about "smells" I couldn't stop laughing. Why would you post any of that.


Please tell me there's somewhere I can read more poo poo like this.

He just wanted some goon advice man, and to share his experiences. That's why we're here, right? :shrug:

edit: also I'm glad he got psych help, probably would have turned in to another Elliot Rodger. Using phrases like "get a lady of my own", "having a woman", "getting a woman", "no access to them (women)", etc. is a really bad sign. Guy's loving insane.

Seriously tho that theater layout is dumb as poo poo. You gotta show the dick or rear end to like 10 people if you gotta get out to pee. Lol.

Imagine Ben sitting in the middle and having fat crawl all over you, then back again after he dropped a deuce without washing his hands. Or let's be real, didn't wipe properly either cause of the trex arms.

I imagine Ben is the kind of person who'd voluntarily get a colostomy and a catheter to make life easier for himself.
