It's not the fact he had a 4k monitor, it's the fact he posted 4k screenshots non-timged in the thread and was all "sorry about this friends, I have a 4k monitor :smuggo:"

I recently got one and I sort of regret it, it's been nothing but trouble trying to sync up my other LCD. There is no happy medium, it's either too tiny on the 4k to read or poster sized on the LCD.

I don't thing the guy with 59 posts of posts, every single one talking poo poo to a singular forums poster should be doxxed, but he should be constantly made of for being a grown adult and doing that. it's actually good now that i think about it

I agree. Several people have said similar on my Discord channel and in PM.

It matters because in 5 years they might make statement that could either be interpreted as either serious or a tasteless joke and it helps figure out which it is. It also matters because I don't want to accidentally get buddy-buddy with a shitstain just because we both laugh at Bitcoin or Star Citizen.

I like how they spent a bazillion dollars on mo-cap and the lizard things fingers clip through it's head. Quality.
It's just a live session preview, but it's slated to be revamped anyway. They did all the mo-cap stuff with their A-listers and then Chris realized the Vanduul weren't scary enough so they'll be made much moreso in a future pass.

No matter how scary they eventually look, they still use wooden, spiky sword-keys to start up their spaceships... That idea made it all the way through whatever filtering system they have for crap ideas-- which means it probably came from the top to start, right after Chris played Kingdom Hearts...

Derek you should offer "anonymity testing" on the side, for goons who want to make sure they are safe online. You could dig into their stuff and then tell them what you found so they know what they need to lock down to safely shitpost.

Only internet scrub lords need to do that. Like i said before: I am untracable. Maybe.

Further, at least one spearfisher has died because he shot a goliath and became entangled in his line when the grouper fled into its hole and stayed there. Always dive with a knife.

As a guy who snorkeled a lot in the keys in his twenties. You always carry a knife. And you never loving shoot a fish that's the same size you are. It's beyond loving stupid.
At best you are losing your spear gun. At worst you are losing you.

That bit is not the 4k screen's fault.
That's purely on Windows and its lovely compositing.

Try it on a mac and it magically works as expected.

Even on linux it's usable.
It's just Windows that's utter poo poo when confronted with screens of different pixel densities.

Curious about this. My extent to 40k was liking Dawn of War with that Dawn of Skirmish AI mod that was ridiculous (to this day).

Warhammer fantasy basically seems like the exact same thing as 40k, except ACTUAL roman empire slash tolkien setting

What am i missing out on here and why? I tried to listen to horus rising on audiotape and it put me to sleep, so I'm curious about WH Fantasy.

e: oh, yeah, i know it has rats, and people love the rats. not sure why.

My distaste for 40k comes from ye olde tabletop gaming days. I adored Warhammer Fantasy Battle. Entire Saturdays of playing out epic battles with friends on a huge board we made ourselves that practically filled the entire room. Swords and axes and spinny spiky balls on chains, Orc heroes riding into battle on the backs of wolves, goblin archers, trolls with clubs, all of it evoking the atmosphere of Excalibur and ancient epic battles in lands not that far away. Rolling fields, wizards, shrubbery to hide in, entire units routing off the battlefield, berserkers and dismembered limbs.

Then along came 40k and it was all about having the biggest gun.

Dear thread,

The moderation team is currently very concerned with the direction that some of the posts are taking. Doxxing is not something we can condone or allow and there have recently been many very heated posts regarding releasing the personal information of others.

The thread is currently closed until we can sort out an amicable situation.

Thank you kindly,

Dear Thread,

Please can this thread stay on topic of the failings of Star Citizen and the creation of the game. The last few hours I hope have allowed you gather your thoughts and agree with me that all drama concerning posters of this thread's real lives (no matter who the poster is) are unnecessary when the game itself has enough comedy going for it already. This thread is for Star Citizen, CIG and the Star Citizen forums.

Any drama concerning anyone's real life, name, career and past that is brought up for the sole purpose of trying to defame or harass will face probation. There will be no extra warning other than this.

I will be reading and following along with the thread, and if I miss anything of this nature then please report it so that it may be acted upon.
