To be fair we can't hold CIG responsible for members of their community insulting a cancer survivor over their opinions on a video game.

Communities take their cues from those managing them. Shitloaf and the forum winnits which cling on to his arsehair primed the pump. Then Crobblers set it off with his pants on head crazy letter to The Escapist.

fuctifino posted:I used to look on all cult members, regardless of the cult, as victims. This has changed completely after witnessing so much toxicity from the SC backers. Scientology has heavy indoctrination and policies are set in place to handle dissent. They attack critics without defending the attacks, and will go to any length to silence dissent. This is because they are a) ordered to do this and b) brainwashed into doing it. The point of no return for some of these morons has got to be the Chris Roberts response to The Escapist. That word salad of rambling conspiracy theories that made it sound like Star Citizen was under direct attack from people who wanted to actively destroy it. For someone obsessed with Star Citizen that would be the trumpet call to attack and destroy anyone who dared try to stop the game from being made because The Chairman had decreed it to be thus. They needed nothing more than that to act as the tacit approval to engage in the behaviour they have, because they're emulating the putrid behaviour of the man who has promised to lead them into space salvation. It may not have even been intentional (it certainly came off more as a reactionary tantrum) but this is his legacy to the worst parts of his community, and he's certainly never going to come out and acknowledge these element to tell them to stop. Ultimately it's still down to these individuals to stop themselves, as has been pointed out. That sort of self-awareness is beyond them. They've indoctrinated themselves pretty effectively.

Correct me if I am wrong, but if memory serves Microsoft bought his company and kicked him off his last project even to get it done since it was already years overdue and well over budget. The project before that was well over budget, had advertised features slashed and was released very late. That and he hadn't been in video game development for well over a decade?

TheLastRoboKy posted:They've indoctrinated themselves pretty effectively. Precisely. While they've definitely been manipulated by RSI (i.e. the Escapist letter) none of this was by design. Hubbard purposefully designed a pseudo-religion to fleece people of their cash and wrote detailed policies on every aspect of the cult. Crobber just pointed to pictures of spaceships and the money started rolling in. The indoctrination was 100% crowd-sourced and created. I've been trying to find an example of something similar so that I can explain SC to newbies ("Yeah, it's just like <such and such>"), yet I still haven't found anything suitable. It's unprecedented, and it's glorious.  Paarp!

Tippis posted:Is CRobber known in the industry for anything other than consistently going over budget, failing to deliver, and eventually being thrown out? The impression I got was that his reputation was dogshit. Far from being respected he was apparently an arse to work with and known for being a bit loving shady. This was scuttlebutt though. EightAce would know. EightAce what does the industry think of the Crobber?

^^^catte is angered, beware Wow I actually read like the last 20 pages of this thread and it was solid shitpoasting all the way down. Nice work commandos.

 The problem with Cymelion is that he has zero cognitive dissonance, he successfully compartmentalizes the flaws he can't ignore and somehow doesn't make the connection that maybe the rest is also bullshit.

To any redditor reading this, just plonk down the $10 and buy a SA account. We ejerculate ourselves over welcoming new people so just do it and then learn about coupons and how to make perfect BBQ ribs in the subforums that aren't Games.

Since we know they monitor behaviour on other sites and punish people accordingly, sure we can. Doubly so since they're the ones who are letting this behaviour fester (or even encourage it) on their own boards. fuctifino posted:This thread needs a picture of Princess Leia in the bath That is a very… odd response. On the one hand, she(?) is not single-mindedly murdering her way in a straight line away from the basin; on the other hand, that does not look like a very happy catface.
