Wait, he wasn't employed by them back then, but still worked in an official capacity on the forums??? I don't know. I don't know anything about sabotage in the games industry. I just post in a thread that shapes dreams that was created by my Uncle who works in indie development, for real you guys.

You have no idea what they have planned. You think all that money went to a tech demo and a couple espresso machines?  The old ways are dead, CIG's about to take their shilling to the bleeding edge.

No, to make it the most open to the public, they had to put the statement into a closed envelope and then put it into a $10,000 refurbished chest of drawers to really get the message out there most effectively

"You never forget the first time you delete a ticket. You never forget." EightAce listens to another traumatized drone try and make sense of the tragedy that was the CIG work place. They had gathered around their usual spot, the vodka-cooler by the rum-stain carpet. He was certain most of these folks had never seen a design note in their life, but you had to talk to someone during refactoring. The drone pours himself a shot, pulls it, and continues to talk. "But, I guess that the new door helps me to fill my day with something other than FUD, that's something, right?" EightAce flinches as sirens provide their shrill answer. Not another one, EightAce thinks to himself as the pre-alpha predator readies to make a leaver out of a human resource

Wait that joke doesn't work quite as well because Chris would never knowingly ask for features to be trimmed. He would have to be tricked.

Coming clean as this ben poo poo is embarassing. I get paid an extra 75 bucks under the table a day to keep up with this thread. I'm not in the LA office so I don't know poo poo about what goes on there and I feel safe from the Chechen mercenary force Sandi could send my way, leaving soon anyway. Dunno where the money comes from but its not in my company paycheck. It was described as keeping in touch with potential customers and reading feedback. So I treated it like that. I used to have MelKor style notes on people but they were 1-2 lines and boring poo poo like "cares a lot about networking" "poster wants lower graphics for performance" but then I realized they didn't give a poo poo about customer feedback and just wanted the drama. So I quit that really early. Everyday I read through as many posts as I can and send summaries to some people in the company. They aren't reading every post here as far as I know. And they haven't said anything about what I posted. This is just extra cash for me and I'm a low level guy who can get another dumb job in a second so I don't care. No one has paid me to make any sort of postings on here. I just like BSing on internet forums. I think I was the first one itt to find lesnick's quote book so lol at that. This project is hosed and they seem to be cutting back on spending on a lot of stuff. Small things right now like coffee etc. And its crunch mode 100% of the time. People are tired. streaming on weekends. There was a guy painting the wall green on a Saturday for fucks sakes. Nothing to do with the game but for more marketing BS. I have nothing but contempt for the SC fanbase. I won't be revealing who I am or what I do so don't bother asking. Its not really important who I am anyway just some dude out of 300.
