Friends, please tell me this rumor about people on GF.com wanting to, and talking about how to, "troll" that CrassKitty streamer girl over her grandpa dying recently is untrue.

If not, please tell me at least someone called them stupid for wanting to do that. That poo poo ain't cool.

Alas I'm not at that level, so I can only dream of deliberately invoking Poe's Corollary with cleverly crafted bait statements, letting others convince themselves they've completed their intended objective of demonstrating their superior wit without following up with a "trap sprung" as if a buffoon getting the last laugh has accomplished something of ephemeral value.






I also might have fun occasionally writing or saying something mildly absurd and trying to guess whether respondents took it seriously or as a joke. In this case it seems like it could be both, but I can't tell. You've beaten me at my own pointless game, hooray! :toot:

There is no more counter intel activity of note, not that it was ever particularly good in the first place.

Multiple times now I have hit it, gotten scrammed, and then watched as the enemies drones appear 100k away, but I've never 100% seen it do this to other ships.

I've hung out in her chat and haven't seen the "show us your tits" thing personally but honestly I wouldn't be surprised. Regardless, that stuff is also dumb as gently caress to do. I'm just saying it's dumb and bad to go out of your way to harass someone over their personal life because it has little to do with the actual game being played.

Fair enough. I doubt she intentionally did it to get subscriptions but that's a difference of opinion. Laz mentioned his grandmom or whatever being ill on stream, so mocking him over it would be just as bad imo. I just dislike the whole "let's use personal things about this person over this game" stuff that happens from time to time. I'd much rather mock Laz for his fits than his personal life.

In the SC thread Lowtax had to come in and stop people from talking about one of the CIG staffers personal life that had nothing to do with the game or it's development. It was bad and was rightly told to stop being done, so that's sort of the mindset I'm coming from. Regardless thanks for the civil response Vyst.

No, if they're held down by ewar they don't get booshed including the CD. That's why in the vid I posted I was asked if I was scrammed. If I was the MJFD would've thrown the other guys forward but not me.

I think. I haven't really ever had that happen to me yet.

I meant if you are scrammed but no one else is while it's spooling but you just answered that for me. When I first started using it I thought being scrammed in the middle cancelled the effect entirely but it doesn't, it just stops YOU from moving (which makes sense given that it's a field generator).

In other words, if you've got a mate in a command destroyer, and you are in a marauder, you literally cannot be stopped from being jumped 100k away. That is pretty fuckin sweet.

I was more so poking fun at the fact that someone went through all that effort to try and fool the bankroller of the enemies in a war.

They were doing this the night I gave my super amazing interview and I did say "this is p not cool and I'm not going to participate in it even though I'm also going to troll her in an actually funny way that doesn't cross the line." That being said, i was sorta confused as to why someone would make that call on their loving stream.

It was no doubt viewer whoring at best and a blatant fabrication at worst. I lean towards the latter actually because at one point it was her grandpa and at another it was her great grandpa. Also it was a response to her mods being loving ridiculous, for example the night I gave that interview I ate a week ban from chat for saying "man this stream chat is a poo poo show" in response to Securitas Protector saying hi to me in chat.

That being said it still was not cool or good that they did that. :eonwe:
