Well I think after this thing pops we will get about a month of interesting fallout and introspection from the whales. The real problem is nothing will ever be able to hold a candle to this poo poo. The level of comedy in my life at the expense of others will drop to almost 0.

TTerrible posted:Yup, true. The question is if the FCA visit happened or not, not if a visit from the FCA is serious. People keep downplaying it. It's true. I got confirmation and have updated the ELE section of the blog with an entire section that I had removed yesterday.

To the next page~ [/quote] What a complete crock of steaming bullshit. quote:I can now reveal that on a date certain in May, my attorneys and I will – again – walk into a Federal building. Walk into a federal building .... (at this point, and with his track record, that could be anything, such as the courthouse he went to fight his moving violation from December). Moreover, any 'details' from the US-side as to company filings are not public privilege, no matter how many crowd-funding terms Derek wants to toss around. quote:Despite the fact that we do not know how much private investment is in the project, the fact remains that they should disclose this to backers, as Chris was quick to proclaim that he didn’t need investors or publishers if he could raise the money from crowd-funding. And these are some of the things that should raise Red flags pertaining to their refusal to provide complete financials to backers, as was promised in the ToS they themselves constructed. They obviously put that in there in order to gain the trust and confidence of backers, and to show a level of accountability. Then, like everything else, after getting all this money, and still failing to deliver a product, and by the deadline promised, they reneged. Pretty much how he wrote this pledge during crowd-funding, and has thus far, has failed to uphold. A private company has no obligation to reveal ANY financial to the public. And, about their ToS: google shrink-wrap agreements Derek. If you created and maintain an account with CiG, you abide by the ToS. If you continue to play the game, you abide by the ToS. These terms are not significantly different than any other service providers' terms (such as cell phone carriers or cable providers). Moreover, there is currently no legal repercussion to companies looking to modify their ToS, since that in and of itself is a term one agrees to --- in the ToS. quote:That said, if current events don’t make them bring a frivolous lawsuit in order to tie me up in court, silence me etc, nothing will. They can bring it. My liability insurance is in need of a workout. I remain convinced that what I’m doing is legal, right, and just; and my opinions are my own. Unless and until they provide backers with the complete financials for this project as promised, and coupled with a concrete date for the delivery of Star Citizen and Squadron 42 projects, I will continue to seek accountability. You are entitled to have opinions - about anything, and at any time. In fact - you are Constitutional empowered to do so. CiG won't bring suit against you, no matter how hard you try to egg them on (until, of course, the project is finished, which could present a real issue with defamation, harassment and intent to disrupt the flow of daily business). Oh, and about your legal right: per the terms of service that you agreed to when you originally pledged, CiG had the right to refund you at their discretion (section 20 of the ToS) for violation of their ToS, which in their view, you performed in your verbal diatribe up to, and including your July blogs. And also per their Terms, any method you use to obtain an account to circumvent your ban that is not a truthful representation of who you are to CiG is, again, in violation of their Terms. Moreover - a dispute in the breach of these terms is subject to binding arbitration. It's a valiant effort Derek - it truly is. You preach that you want accountability when some say you're just looking for a quick and easy payday. Whatever version of that is true, you should - as a grown adult - just let it be. You are SO enamored with the fact that over 500k individuals are giving money to a venture that, in your eyes, is a fraudulent enterprise. So, why not let those people learn the hard way? You would be much more wise and taken much more seriously if you just chronicle this adventure and comment on it if it all comes crashing down instead of making yourself batshit insane in the meantime.
