Ya, I don't feel like I'm living dangerously with an electric pressure cooker/rice cooker. The old steam release stovetop one my family had on the other hand was one of the kitchen things I avoided using.

Looks like the shitizens/RSI are trying to exert control over the SC thread at E:D's forum (I'm also pretty sure that's not a real rule).

I'm disappointed TBH they are normally quite laid back.

I got a 2 month ban for that exchange. I wonder how much the Mod's have spent on SC, most of them say its ok for CIG to scam their backers.

I bet Bestow is really kicking himself for not making a Crimson Haze kickstarter. He already had as much content as Star Citizen 10 years ago with his single sword double-assed man concept art and techno stimpire amputated woman mob.

Wow. I like read prognoses more cynical than my own sometimes. Makes me feel like an optimist, even while thinking Star Citizen is doomed to release late and be humiliated by a surfeit of superior space game experiences...

Interesting reactions at Frontier Forums to recent events, including the upcoming in-game store.

I might be late to the party but holy loving poo poo, a virtual car dealership. Ahahahahah, anyone who still thinks this is going to be good is a loving moron. Star Citizen now only exists to sell jpegs to the mentally challenged.

Like normally you feel bad for the people being scammed, but this poo poo is so loving transparent. If you get scammed by this, you are too stupid to have that money, so it may as well be spent on some failed actress' midlife crisis.

You'll be able to completely customize your character. That way youll have 3 different shirts to pick from. This is basically on par with Black Desert On-line's character customization as well.

hey so what ever happened with this thread? did CIG go bust? did eightace stay safe and ride his tell all to morning chat show glory? did Eonwe use his vegas winnings to buy up all of CIG's furniture for pennies on the dollar?

I love how the economy is started by buying money to shop to start the economy by buying money to shop by buying. buying money to shop is to start the economy to shop the start, is the money.

See it makes sense.

Edit : Just ask people how ship customization was supposed to use the not real money too, but you needed real money to customize.

Store credit is worthless unless you buy it.
