Well now I see how that post looked and so did some other people (spies are everywhere!!) to the extent that I have, quite correctly, received my official spanking notice for being dumb enough to even potentially let that connection be made, so to clarify: I'm not anything to do with Kotaku, I just know how things went down there. I figured the very idea that someone involved directly in the articles would post here to be too ludicrous to even consider but I also forgot that this is the internet, so...!

I'll just say this: Although all the work there was done with proper pro-tier journalistic integrity the likes of which the games industry barely encounters (which obviously meant completely ignoring conjecture-flinging idiots like us) the visibility given to the project's issues here were an integral part of it getting enough heat to consider covering in the first place. So, in an abstract way, goons still ruined everything, and anyone here who did anything more than a drive-by shitpost (including dearly departed Gorf) should feel appropriately warm inside.

Now I disappear to the shame cube, where I will stay until I learn how to internet in 2016 (just don't mainly)

Sorry, I didn't mean to imply you worked at Kotaku, only that you might know people who did.

In any case, thanks.

What were you looking to do. Trade? Or do you have the stones for fighting. We don't really aim to working in highly secure space or messing with the pvp slider whatever cig decides to implement.

My plan was to load a Tali out with missile pods and run it as an escort gunship for larger convoys and/or do some light trading. But it also depends on what they put on sale for CitCon, tbh.

As said, good reporting work by mr Ottsjö and mr Holmgren, very very in depth article.

This was quite a read and by the end I just feel that what Derek Smart and CIG/Roberts need to really do is stop wasting their lives going at eachother. They should just focus on their games, they both look cool and they can make those games cool finished products. They each certainly have good reason to be pissed off at one another (I would be on either end), but what a waste of life! It will literally get neither party anywhere, and it's not exactly memories they'd look fondly back on, instead it's wasted time.

Live your lives, make your games, stay away from eachother...

Care to comment, Derek?

Gonna hug it out with Chris out and go back to rollerblading with him on the weekends?

I don't plan on anymore ships unless they release something that outclasses the Sabre. I want some stuff to earn in the game. My idea is to be like a mercenary caravan guard (pirate those who stiff me) and then to slowly "go legit" as the economy gets settled in.

It sounds like you'd be a good fit. Although I see in previous posts you've been needlessly negative of star citizen. So consider yourself a member of Randy's Roughnecks on a probationary basis.

Will fit you into the org chart in a few hours and post it.

Anyone else like to join? We do have a bit more room for some muscle. And we are willing to take as many traders as willing. Must be a backer though as of now.

A ton of the ships are phallic shaped. Especially if you are into chodes. Let me know what you picked and we'll exchange RSI ID's tonight. I'll start reworking the org chart now. Let me know what role you want and we'll figure it out. On a probationary basis.

Its gonna really put us on the map when people find out we have goons in our org. Just a little clout to get started even if its illusory.

My plan was to climb on top of a tali's torpedo and use the fidelity to get launched into another ship, ready to board. I'll would be wearing a torpedo camo spacesuit,of course, from the most prestigious brand.

I didn't call him a liar. I said he probably won't be making anymore videos because the game is constantly becoming more playable and enjoyable. Can't make those dumb videos if all the bugs have been fixed. The videos he has made so far are going to be really funny after the game has released.

I do have an org but as anyone familiar with org dynamics on RSI revealing your fleet composition is a fatal error. Especially in hostile territory such as this. I however will be flying a sabre personally as my main.

I do have an org chart I can show you with officers etc? Would that work?

My main goal here is to hopefully recruit one or two members here as "muscle". Big bad goons etc. We are positioning as the rebel, "Firefly" type of org. Mainly trading, but some serious attitude.

You could easily recruit me if you like, just ask, I have zero problems with what you are proposing. I would however respectfully ask you to consider posting like a human being instead of a literal garbage can.

I cruised the RSI store for a big donger ship, but they're all $200+, sorry but I'm pullin' out.
