I've only probated two people. One literally asked for it, and the other was Marching Powder. Beet's been on a bit of a probation kick but most of them feature pictures of Kayak so is that really a bad thing? Not to mention that most of them are also from the other thread where people have literally asked for it. Most of the moderation action from the last few days was from FAU and other mods, same with the QCS request. I know that at first glance it could look like Beet and I are channeling our inner Maul and putting all of you lowly plebes into your place beneath the heel of our boots, but we haven't been around long enough to even put our boots on let alone go stomping on people.

That's all I have to say on the topic. If anyone has any other issues or concerns feel free to PM me or Beet.

:same:

I'll address this once here, but I think arguing about/explaining moderation decisions in the thread is a bad look, so if you have any concerns I don't cover you can PM me about them:

I've given six hour probations to a grand total of three people who didn't literally ask for one so they could have a picture of my dog in their rap sheet. Of those three, one was a poster deliberately trying to troll the thread with a lame gimmick, and two had shown up just to tell FAU he was an rear end in a top hat - something that's probably best kept to PMs if you really must. That's it. Any other probations I've given are from the "post here to get a picture of Kayak/Legman in your rap sheet" thread. There was a QCS thread that existed specifically for folks to go and bitch about things that happen here, and I asked a poster to take his grievances there because there was legit discussion going on (before it turned into a weird nightmare Autism Battle Arena).

I actually love this dead gay thread, and have no intention of crushing anything under my bootheel, because Chris Roberts won't pony up a Bengal and I can't be bought for anything less than the best.

If that still doesn't put your heart at ease, PM me or Beer.

Well for five years they've either been given no schedule at all, or literally just "By Christmas for sure this time LOL" so you really can't blame them for being totally loving retarded about it.

Wait they are already almost a week behind their schedule for 2.6 when they had like a a week of wiggle room initially before they hit the holiday business exodus where nothing gets done till the next year?

Well, that was the plan: Croberts released the schedule with the statement: "it's all lies, lol". and they still bought it. he's like the trump of game development: everything is wrong but INN News Network News Network, and that other site, which released the REview of star citizen with features not even released yet.

To all you folks still bitching about Derek being demodded and not being able to admit he was in the wrong and pay his measly $10 to come back, maybe Beer and Beet can randomly quote posts and comment "This. All of it." and occasionally throw out Two Weeks as a timeline for anything CIG does or for their eventual destruction.

That would be exactly the same, right?

You gotta remember, the concept of giving even a tentative date for things is Crobber's own "Kobayashi Maru" - the fabled nerd thing where your spaceship can't win no matter what you do or whatever. I don't think you appreciate how hard this is for him.

Well when you're already two years late, what's another couple weeks? Maybe he figures time is circular and if he's late enough it'll come back around and he'll be early.

They're so loving dumb. CIG finally get corralled into showing a schedule and rather than fall at the first hurdle they trip over their own feet at the start line. I don't even know what CIG were thinking when they put it together, in fact... Hey CIG, let me give you a tip.

If you're gonna put out a dumb fake schedule to encourage people to keep the faith maybe at least put in some short term deadlines which you can actually stick to. Like...

Week 1 - Show backers current progress on Star Marine.
Week 2 - Launch new concept jpeg #1048.
Week 3 - Dumb ship XXY is will be flight ready.
Week 4 - Further update on Star Marine progress.
Week 6 - Release update 2.6

This gives you 4 weeks of actually doing what you said you would do, before the inevitable disappointment of further delaying Star Marine of course but at least you've built up some good will.

God, I dread to think of how well this scam would go if it were being run by people who knew how to organise literally anything.

I like 2014 because it has nicer glass and a gravity generator that can be disabled for zero g.

It's the debug console, pretty much every game since Quake has one in some form. The last line is them entering a command to connect to a game server on their internal network.

Everything else is basically logging to tell the coders that something's either working or not working. Or both.
