So: My BDSSE story:

1. Heard about SC, had a look, it was pre Arena Commander at this point, and they had a really janky tech demo in wirefram of AC going on. I thought "Nah"
2. Then I came back to it a little later and thought OooO! Shiny! (I'm a sucker like that)
3. I did some research (not enough in hindsight) and got a Cutlass
4. This was (again in hindsight) a good thing
5. Because they treated the Cutlass owners like poo poo, that should have given me a clue... but sadly at this point my spergbrain took over and I started spending money on jpegs
6. Then Dereck hapened and through finding out who Derek was I discovered SA and started to lurk here because... drat! It's funny here!
7. Then denial kicked in... I got another (expensive) jpeg. This one however was grey market.
8. Got another clue that CIG were clowns - made a (very mildly) critical post about :lesnick: when drunk one night and the next morning some anon mod had just deleted it. This happened to me twice.
9. Was lurking here a lot by now, and thinking about getting out... then...
10. Pgabz cat hypnotized me with it's rhythmic dancing :pgabz: and I decided enough was enough and that
9. What goons & Dereck were saying was in all probability the truth
10. Demanded a refund (I work self employed in the building industry and had a bad hit from a client (didn't pay for work done) so I could legit plead poverty to CS
11. Got jerked about for a while by CS. They asked if any websites or people made me want out
12. I said it was the Chris rant to the escapist that scared me
13. They actioned the refund from, like, 4 different sources leaving me $280 down on the grey market ship
14. Learned a valuable lesson about not being a gullible idiot in future and counted my blessings that I got most of my hard earned out
15. Unexpectedly the client then paid me leaving me paypal rich so I
16. Got MGS5, Fallout 4, witcher 3, Rise of the tomb raider, and several other games cheap on steam instead of the BDSSE

TL/DR got in got out thanks Goons and Dereck :gary:

Was there a specific turning point? Derek's threats of legal action, the emails between Sandi and Beer, Bootcha's lucky escape and accompanying revelations of employee abuse, EightAce's posts, etc.? All of the above? Common sense?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Sorry for not answering sooner - was backtracking through the thread and I noticed your post. I think for me the turning point was the Sandi sacking incident + Crobblers escapist diatribe - I realised that any company run by people with that sort of attitude was in all probability gonna tank. Also Ben - just Ben being Ben. That coupled with the general and IMO inarguable logic on display here (inbetween Cattes and receipies) made me utilise my critical faculties and decide to get the gently caress out of Dodge.

I only watched for a couple of minutes but I caught the bit about them wanting their fans to tone down the arguing with non-fans on "click-bait" media pieces.

Interesting they feel the toxic community of nutters is going to put new backers off, bit late to worry about it now though.

Another reason this thing is like a bloody cult is the limited vocabulary such as "click-bait" available to the loonies, they all sound the same and by "the same" I mean demented.

I actually feel sorry for that Bored Gamer guy from your link - I watched a few of his vids back when I was a believer. Now however his vids are getting increasingly batshit-insane as he makes wild then wilder assumptions about what will be in the game. I hope he's ok when the inevitable crash and burn happens.

Oh for Gods sakes. More Sandi hate. Dont you shills realise that she can speak 73 languages (from since she was a little girl) including Urdu, Nahuatl, Yoruba, and Bad English? She is also a rocket scientist (retired) and a consultant brain surgeon. For goodness sakes let the woman do work at the level at which she is comfortable - ie answering CS requests from Beer.
