What you'd do if you had a modicum of sense and PR-skills, is it: a) Immediately delete the whole thing, issue an apology (not a mealy-mouthed "heh sorry if you were offended") and own up to your stupidity but press on the fact that you've changed and learend from your mistakes? b) Tweet "heh, look at my funny old site", keep it up, and then issue the worlds worst non-apology after people keep pressing you on it?

Presumably this is why the rats still aboard the sinking ship are having trouble finding somewhere to jump to. Ah now i remember the dude, that was one interesting story. He also pointed out how some new job openings where listed, specifically for a certain type of server architecture. Which he said, if they still haven't found someone for that they are indeed screwed... well that was the gist.

Ben-Ghazi is sad proof that humanity is doomed because we too easily allow ourselves to be led to hate. Derek Smart, self-proclaimed old-school internet warlord is leading the charge on this hate offensive and I wonder how he can get anyone to enlist? This is the same Derek Smart who appeared with Vox Day on a webinar. Vox Day, if you don't know, is a racist misogynist filth lord by the name of Theodore Beale whose only claim to fame is being kicked out of Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America for trying to hijack the Hugos to include more right-wing writers and suppress female and minority writers. Vox Day wrote a book, “SJWs Always Lie: Taking Down the Thought Police” yet here is Derek Smart leading a thought police campaign against Ben Lesnick for racism. Bah! Derek Smart will gladly sit down and talk nice with racists if they stroke his ego. Ben Lesnick doesn't; he can't!; look at those tiny T-rex arms, they're barely serviceable for basic hygiene, how's Ben gonna jerk off Derek's massive ego-cock? You know what's the really sad part. I can't link to that Vox Day webinar that Derek was on. Let's hear Derek himself explain it: D_Smart posted:There are no "page hits". It's a live webinar. And it's not recorded for posting anywhere, since that's not how those work. So if you don't attend, you won't know what's being said. Yet, I can read all of Ben Lesnick's poo poo FROM YEARS AGO!!! Ben Lesnick, whose job it is to censor people, has more content posted than the “free-speech” proponents Derek Smart and Vox Day?! Ben Lesnick even has a link to the original usenet thread where his Wing Commander guild formed. Sure, the page containing the link holds this gem: "Loaf" is one of the Tiger Claw pilots in Peter Telep's Pilgrim Truth. For much of the book I'm suspected of beating Freddie Prinze Jr. with a pipe in a hate crime, but it eventually turns out I didn't. So, it's not really true to life.” but at least Ben Lesnick acknowledges the existence of hate crimes. I can't say the same for Vox Day! I think what's happening now is a release of anger that has been suppressed for far too long. Derek's decision to go on Vox Day was not popular: MyPants posted:You have no problems with someone who thinks that you and I are subhuman trash because of our race? Derek's response D_Smart posted:I disagree. And it's HIS platform. I got invited. D_Smart posted:I am just going to say it. I love all of you here. Simple reason being, even when we all don't agree on everything, even when poo poo goes to South real fast, it's just us. Remember, I was around back when Lowtax and me were, well, on opposite sides of the same retarded coin with both sides the same. “Yet another outlet to tell this Star Citizen story?” he said. Ha! As if the gaming press was falling all over itself to speak with Derek, because on April 14th Mr. Smart was like, “So, to all you “media” who now want to talk, here is my response: F*CK YOU.” Ben-Ghazi happens and now Derek is all about, “I'm writing a blog. Then I'm going to send it over to @BreitbartNews and @BreitbartTech with everything wrapped up in a nice package.” Please don't let Derek get away with this bullshit. Derek's playing both sides of the retarded coin on this one and he must be punished. Derek doesn't even have the god drat courtesy to update the OP when he's calling for someone's job! DOWN WITH DEREK! UP WITH GORF FOR OP!!!

Yeah, Malcolm McDowell probably isn't *that* expensive. Although he's supposedly sort of a jerk <G> He refused to record voices for WCA with the rest of the cast. #17462 Wonder why. I wore... a normal shirt and they put a fake tuxedo over it. It may have been the worst picture ever taken. #16993 Not even in the top 100 by a long shot... Remember that Simpsons gag about a film star and fish? I dreampt that my blue gourami floated out of its tank and kissed me on the forehead while I was asleep:( #19358 Remember that time someone on CIG forums talked about leeching bandwidth from the elderly? A family thing, goodbye to me and my brother and such. My grandmother said I could use her credit card to buy plane tickets if I ever wanted to come home, so I figure we can afford that convention now... #16378 My grandmother gave me her credit card so I can get plane tickets home if I ever need to, so I'm going to go to Vegas a lot. #16507

WhiskeyWhiskers posted:https://www.reddit.com/r/DerekSmart/comments/4f2rlb/bens_old_jokes_and_ds_reaction/d2651vf?context=3 But seriously though, accusing the SC thread goons as being the same group as the MMO goons is like saying r/dereksmart is comprised of the same redditors who were regulars on r/jailbait. I've only heard stories about how the incident went down but Imp Zone tore into the archeage goons over it and there's much more observable overlap between the goons making fun of star citizen and the goons who went after the pedo than goons who defended him. For starters we have Eonwe, they don't. And to put it in perspective, I can honestly say that while I sympathize with Postapocalyptic_sky for their experiences with the archeage goon guild I view star citizen backers in as dim a view, morally, as I do the archeage goons. I can't really speak for the thread but I'd wager nobody else would complain if you were to share that sentiment as representative of the thread's overall mood. see: right now, with Ben-ghazi Basically, we're on the side of those goons who were trying to clean up this poo poo and have never really changed course from that, while Postapocalyptic_sky has basically become that which they hate, a defender of a toxic, public embarrassment.
