lmao, Jester using an alt account to advertise black market services on the refunds subreddit. Now I've seen it all.

Exhibit A: this post by one Ivan_SC advertising black market poo poo on /refunds



Exhibit B: Jester responding to comments in that thread with comments clearly written as "Ivan" lol. These comments don't exist because as soon as he realized the issue he deleted them, but since he's flagged for manual comment approval they're still in the modmail. Whoops!



So posts like this...



...were actually from one of the /r/ds mods, posting in /r/ds via an alt?

Jester is weird. At times he seems reasonable, and he appears to understand how hosed up most of the denizens of the DS sub are, but then he'll dig his heels in over something petty and argue the most inane and indefensible poo poo for days on end. He's talked about closing the sub at various points over the past couple of years. I have to assume he's tired of moderating it, but kinda hung on when he had a financial stake in defending CIG. If he really has cashed out, then I could see him pulling the plug for good.

That's because he's reasonable. And yes, as you say, he's at the same time making money from the SC retards so there is a very real conflict of interest which is what makes him act in such a way.

Kinda disappointed Jester didn't go with the, "Its my brother" defense. Just "a friend/org mate" isn't as funny.

Only after he got caught flat out of course.

Yep, having to do all that Star Citizen Derek Smart Testicle Fetish Subforum moderating AND all that Star Citizen grey-market trading at the same time, must have been tough on jester86.

I feel bad for all the future potential shitizens he won't be able to help now.

Also never forget that at the conclusion when Beer wipes the floor with her, and it was very likely that they had evidence on their system of Sandi being hugely inappropriate and stupid, they wiped their entire email database about a week later.

They claimed this to be standard year end clean up, but naturally they had never done it before and had never done it since, this moment.

This is all leading up to Sandi going offline, and no longer communicating with anybody online anymore. From faux twitter harassment campaigns to scare her away and pull at the heartstrings of stupid backers, to never showing up for more than YouTube videos. Her SC presence since this point has basically been nullified to keeping up the appearance that she still does stuff.

The reality, I believe, though is that she got upset she couldn’t win a sparring match with Beer, ended up looking stupid, decided she didn’t even like video games anyway, and had help to construct a way out so she could go so what she wanted to do, which was be an actress. I seriously think that Beer helped put the final nail in her tolerance for the dumb video game that made her a filthy and ungrateful millionaire.

No, he was running multiple accounts on the trades sub for the same reason all other traders run multiple accounts: To pump their own trades.

But if the stuff Derek says is so ridiculous and unbelievable and wrong and bad, why does it matter that it's reposted elsewhere without comment? Who does it harm? The comments on the posts certainly aren't helping anything.

I guess it's like they say, Star Citizen is good.

Oh I meant more like in, biting the bullet to be the extra special needs kid in the class so everyone else gets a good laugh on your expense. I don't think jester will nuke the sub actually, he seems to like the role of the nagging old man with powers over a degenerate community.
