I miss Branson tbh

Can't quite say that I do. I mean, most remember him just from the meltdown, but I also remember how he first came onboard and his tedious self-absorbed contributions to the thread. It took him half a year to build up the frustration to that meltdown, it's not a thing that 'just happens' lol. And sadly the build-up is tedious as poo poo.

I think it's because you waited, if you or FAU stepped in when he was going off on that wheelchair guy there probably wouldn't be much of a dispute. It's not like Derek's a normal poster made into a mod, he usually posts on a blog and assumes absolute power. He's not going to know what a mod that has to share power should or shouldn't do.

That too, I mean..."That's him in the wheelchair?" Now that WAS straight up doxxing that happened 1 year ago and you guys let it slide (I actually kinda wasn't comfortable with it at all). Right after that happened poo poo like ilovecreamsoda and all those other poor saps that The Warlord thoroughly owned and shat on, all of that was somehow considered to be kosher, yet was in every way at least as bad if not worse than Delorean...

...yet now when he does this same poo poo to a legit scammer (tho I still doubt he went for the RL info, but I guess we'll never know since the post wasn't even saved), suddenly Derek's this mad dog that needs to be put down lol. But yea, I mean...let's move on already. I mean, this crud definitely isn't all okay, but I can't say I'll miss Derek being the mod here that much, even if I will miss his ego-tripping presence.

E - All of the above. poo poo, one year ago when they did the referral programs it literally became a Pyramid Scheme. It's always been BDSSE, whatever the gently caress that's actually worth lol, A seems almost assured given that whole Swedish mafia links and poo poo and B is their standard modus operandi for selling spae sheeps.

hey beer whatup. man this is a lot to unpack. got a challenge for you too buddy - what other fat, worthless community manager ostracizes the people critical of the community in order to protect his herd of retards? haha.

arf was just saying doxxing is bad. that's something you should be able to just say at all times and it's good advice. maybe you should use some of your moderator powers or the respect you've generated by your 'good posting' to guide the community towards agreeing with arf and supporting him in his endeavour to create an environment where doxxing is severely discouraged and those that do doxx wouldn't post it here because the community wouldn't be receptive. hell that's what i'd do.

your inclusion of xaearael confuses me too. sure he's a completely worthless poster, and he responds to me all the time with tedious, unfunny vitriol but honestly all you'd need to do to shut him up would be to do that mod challenge i suggested and have him write me a sincere apology. that would break him, because he's stupid and worthless, but there's no need for probations.

as for me, it's real weird that you focus on my brand of off-topic as something to punish. what about the other countless tangents? animal photos? recipes (i get it!)? conventions? basically 99% of this thread. actually it's not really weird that you'd choose to focus on me when you take into account that you're just a fat, thin skinned space dweeb moulding his community as he sees fit - as is well within his rights.

here's my recipe beer, go gently caress yourself, lol, maybe next time someone comes in here to criticise the community you'll listen to them and start guiding the community instead of eliminating the people rocking the boat

I don't think you even need to bake, do you? Just post recipes? I mean, I'm lazy as hell but you could probably do it with just small alterations to random reciepies from http://allrecipes.com/
    Release Date Surprise

    Ingredients
    1 cup butter, softened
    1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
    1/4 cup cornstarch
    1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

    Directions

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Whip butter with an electric mixer until fluffy.
  • Stir in the confectioners' sugar, cornstarch, and flour.
  • Beat on low for one minute, then on high for 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Drop cookies by spoonfuls 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.
  • Loudly tell everyone in the room that you are going to bake these cookies for 10 minutes. You can do it in just 10 minutes because you've already been preheating the oven for an hour.
  • Insert cookies into oven. Retrieve charred remains in 30-300 minutes.
  • Send them back to be refactored.

See, easy.


    Dreams Happen Now
    This sparkling treat is a real crowd pleaser.

    Ingredients

    1 cup butter, softened
    1 cup white sugar
    1 cup packed brown sugar
    2 eggs
    2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    3 cups all-purpose flour
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    2 teaspoons hot water
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    2 cups shards of broken glass

    Directions
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Cream together the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Dissolve baking soda in hot water. Add to batter along with salt. Stir in flour and glass.
  • Drop by large spoonfuls onto ungreased pans.
  • Bake for about 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until edges are nicely browned.

Wait, I just thought of another one.

    Cryengine 64s

    Ingredients
    3/4 cup scalded milk
    1/3 cup granulated sugar
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1 (.25 ounce) envelope active dry yeast
    1/4 cup warm water
    4 cups sifted all-purpose flour
    1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg (optional)
    1/3 cup butter or margarine
    2 eggs, beaten
    2 cups confectioners' sugar
    6 tablespoons milk

    Directions

  • Preheat oven to 350F.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together the scalded milk, sugar, and salt. Set aside to cool until tepid. If using nutmeg, stir it into the flour, and add 2 cups of the mixture to the milk, and beat until well blended.
  • In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water. Stir into the milk and flour mixture, then mix in the butter and eggs. Mix in the remaining flour 1/2 cup at a time. When dough is firm enough, turn it out onto a floured surface, and knead for 3 to 4 minutes. Place into an oiled bowl, cover and allow dough to rise until doubled in bulk. This should take 30 to 45 minutes.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to 1/2 inch in thickness. Cut into circles using a donut cutter, or round cutter. Set aside to rise for 30 to 40 minutes, or until light.
  • Lay rings out on lightly greased cookie sheet. Bake for 18 minutes.
  • Glaze while warm, or just sprinkle with sugar.

  • To make the glaze, stir together the confectioners' sugar and 6 tablespoons milk until smooth. Dip warm cookies into glaze, and set aside to cool.
See, the joke is that an oven is a bad tool for making donuts, even if you call them cookies, just like Cryengine is a bad tool for making a vehicle-based MMO.

See, I miss the glory days of Eonwe where there was, like, a whole page of nothing but food recipes like this. Hangon, I promise to post all my grandma's old recipes ITT later tonight (tho none are about cookies, I'm afraid, so I don't quite qualify for that excellent competition).

The funding tracker has been shown to be completely bogus before already. I wouldn't be one bit surprised if by this point they don't just automatically spruce up that graph whenever an event happens, whether it's true or not, and try to weakly rationalize the fraud to themselves privately.

Well, since you're one of the prime enablers in the Greenies and administrator of his Smart Community, you certainly would be one of the first to defend him.

Look man, I've been here when the original rants against him happened in this thread's predecessors well over a year ago. It's a dead horse that's been beat into meat jelly by now. Derek is a complete and total clown and if anyone unironically uses his 'Internet Warlord' title as denoting that he's any kind of 'badass,' I am the first to laugh my rear end off at that as hard as at any SC thing that happens.

But here's the clincher - his gimmick is actually entertaining! poo poo, doxxing or not, his constant blueballing or not, the guy commits to this shtick and hilarity follows him wherever he goes. Now, you're certainly free to go 'Imma callin' you out!' right along the circus troupe, but the fact remains that unless you go completely insane yourself, you'll never upstage the main attraction that is the Internet Warlord Derek Smart (esquire).

Please keep this in mind as you continue to carepost about him while shouting "I don't even CARE if I care!"
