Yeah, I spoke up against this last night and even took the time to write a long carepost to the kid telling him to shut the gently caress up and stop poking the bear but I've regretted it already. Wheelchair or not he's a shithead, gently caress him.

It would be trivial to check the time we started bitching about it deleting even our cat pictures and the time they noticed it themselves but that doesn't fit the narrative they are going for.

There's one thing that's baffling me, was this the first time someone pulled a report bot stunt on imgur? How can this thing be working all these years and be susceptible to something like this? Wouldn't hundreds of reports coming from a single source in minutes stick out like a sore thumb? Let's say that these guys who already showed they have no sense with money pool their entire resources to make stargur work, what prevents them from effectively banning this thread from using imgur afterward? Or even all of SA? Or the reverse, goons retaliating at some point by blocking all of reddit from imgur?

Octopode posted:It does, after all, take a solid two mouse clicks to change to a chronological view of things instead of a score-based one if that's what you want. It's still poo poo because the nested comments completely gently caress up the "chronological" view. Even if there was no down voting reddit would still be complete poo poo for this reason, you just can't get the flow of a conversation with non sequential posts and people having to reply to each post separately. Nested comments were complete poo poo when Yahoo Groups did it and it's complete poo poo now but at least in loving Yahoo Groups you could change it to sequential view.

Pleasantly surprised this didn't end with "that's him in the wheelchair".

Kewpuh posted:this is a really bad idea. the goal should be to entice people to register and participate instead of shutting them out of whatever might lure them here I dunno man, the way these people are obsessed with SA and DS and with the money they have shown they are willing to part with for this thread alone would be something they couldn't resist. Many of them couldn't not know what we are scheming daily. I'd give it a shot for a week (I doubt they could resist that much) and then bring it back to the public. e: AP posted:Thinking about the uptight Star Citizens who lurk this thread just to stalk Derek would just archive the post for their friends so they didn't have to pay anyway. e2: Furious Mittens posted:Just about any games with Goons is a fun experience, even when Goons ruin everything. That's how I got into SA, in 2004 I was in the "pissed off at goons" side of the trench. The game was existed and was fun but a goon alliance found a bug and instead of reporting it to the creators so they would fix it they decided to ruin everything. Months of work down the drain just when it was about to pay off... But the goons seemed to be having a lot of fun before loving everything and then mocked us mercilessly after doing it.

Dapper Dan posted:Does Alpha 2.0 even have a release date now or is it 'soon' or 'eventually' or 'two weeks'? Is it coming out before or after SQ42 with ? I still don't see how them losing a bunch of people as they are going into a second version of a loving alpha is a good thing. Typically you shed people at the end of a game when all you really need is bug testing and art stuff before you launch it. Not when you are in alpha and you need to get revved up to get poo poo done to go into beta. Its goddamn delusional. "Oh, everything is ok! They are just shedding dead weight!" Yeah, because when a company is shedding employees when it needs them at a crucial point is always a good sign. You just answered your own question. > you shed people at the end of the game > they are shedding people ergo > they are in the polishing phase A couple more weeks and it will be ready for release. You'd realize this if you weren't so blindly following of your Smart messiah.

The poor guys that are with him in this class action endeavour. poo poo son don't be coy, just CP it. But anyway, I don't think the courts decide the merit of your case based on if you had previous run-ins with the courts, especially if your "remarkable" legal track record doesn't include being a felon. Which I presume you aren't trying to imply?

This is actually true, publicly identifying and accusing someone of sexual harassment is serious business, especially to someone married. I wonder why Wulf Dick isn't threatening to sue? Is he one of those "turn the other cheek" ultra christians?

I was gonna say that this man is an idiot because if SC comes out "in a few years" the boundaries will already have been pushed by 5 or 6 or 7 years and everything that SC once thought was innovative and more will have been done already and competently, but then I remembered SC should still have the market cornered in the Space Tetris and Space Hostess simulation.

TheLastRoboKy posted:Yeah, everyone keeps talking about Smart's lawsuits but we're what, over a month past the deadline for Escapist making a full retraction and apology or CIG sues? Maybe it was just a matter of giving Sandi a boost of emotional support during the con so she decided to take the higher road like the classy lady she is and not waste backer money fighting these vile personal attacks by Derek Smart. Since the claim CIG was running out of money was so preposterous that they didn't even bother to ask for a retraction because it's presence in itself discredited the really serious accusations against Sandi there was no other reason to sue.

IANAL so I don't understand the significance of "the letter wasn't signed". Is the argument that D_Smart stole stationary from a lawyer's office or is otherwise impersonating a lawyer? Wouldn't that blow up immediately as soon as the letter was posted online?
