That Fox guy is great. We need more people like this. I stop playing EVE because there were not many people like those left to be scammed

I can't imagine any video game that I'd want to play continuously for 20 years. Does he never want to try something new?

I have been a backer of Star Citizen since March 2014. I was brought here, ironically enough, by playing Elite Dangerous and wondering if there was anything else out there that could satiate my spaceman needs. Needless to say, I found Star Citizen. My mind was blown because I had always wondered where the guy that made those great Wing Commander and Strike Commander games went to. Those games left such a mark on me that I still remember them to this day. Anyway, I bought my ship (325a) package and was content that I was part of this movement. Initially, I didn't do too much following of the development process. I followed some of it, but nowhere near what I do now. I didn't really get involved in the community until about a month ago. Mind blown! Seriously. I have been gaming for decades and I've never experienced a community of gamers like this. I didn't know it existed. I mean, gamers are self-centered, entitled pricks, right? Apparently, not. For years, that was the view that I had of most people in the gaming community. Don't get me wrong, I have seen a few bad nuggets in this community, but overall 99% of this Star Citizen community are generous, kind-hearted people. I've seen people buy ships for total strangers just so they can experience this great process. I've read posts from people who seem to feel something special inside. It blows me away because I am not an emotional guy. In fact, you could probably say that I lack emotions for the most part (I blame the Army). However, this community has struck a chord with me that has me feeling amazing and, well, emotional! Reading people's post about their first experiences as they loaded up the new 2.0 alpha is breathtaking. The feelings that this "game" (phenomenon is a better word!) has evoked in everyone involved is nothing short of spectacular. Let me close by providing a quick example of an experience that I had in game with a guy named Seryn (sorry if I spelled your name wrong). I had just logged into the session and Seryn was being pretty active in the chat. Reading through it looked like he was at the Security Post (FPS zone) and was asking for nobody to shoot him while he learned his ropes quickly. Shortly after, he responded about someone having shot him. Anyway, I headed over to Security Post and was getting ready to go into the area and landing my Connie. To my left was a Super Hornet firing its weapons. In a panic, I opened fire and destroyed the SH. It turned out to be Seryn trying to get vengeance for his previous death. I apologized and explained that I didn't really know how to tell players apart yet and he was very cool about it. He even flew over to pick me up after someone stole my ship and flew off with it. He didn't get pissed at me; didn't call me a bunch of profane names; didn't try to get revenge on me; He even gave me his TS information so we could fly together in the future. So, I said all that to say this short, but extremely heart-felt phrase: Thank you. I'm 36 and I've never experienced anything quite like this in a "game" community before and it's not even finished yet. Imagine how great the finished product will be--and I'm not just talking about the game. TL;DR: Best community ever. Seriously. Thank you. -Blaze Andromeda, 9th Security Industries, "Police Force of Star Citizen"

I suggest goons, who've not yet refunded, take to the grey market to recoup their money, like, immediately. Because if CIG is legit stopping this, then yeah...grey market will dry up very soon too. That or just chargeback first, ofc. CrazyLoon fucked around with this message at 21:39 on Dec 15, 2015 |

1500 posted:After 6 weeks, CIG denied my request for a refund. Was the cash in your paypal account or did it pull it across from a bank account? Another option is to go the small claims route and they'll back down after you kick the process off with a letter, but it depends how much you'll lose as it's a bit of effort reading and following the process for wherever you are. At the very least you could contact the guy who wrote this. Maybe it's Karma for you thinking Elite Dangerous people weren't entitled to ask for refunds.

You can't sue someone in small claims unless they have a business presence in your state.
