Jesus christ there's a thread on reddit right now talking about how they hope CIG makes this dumb Top Gear Car Spaceship Show a real event in game.

Dudes they promised you a showroom like two years ago.

If there's one thing Roberts can do, it's try to sell cars/ships in a dealership! That's pretty much the one area he's actually got experience in!

I'll start listening to you when you've made a single correct guess/prediction about Star Citizen's development

I seem to remember he once nailed the cost of a new ship CIG sold, in an offhand comment. I asked him how he knew that but got stonewalled. I don't know who he is, but he's been getting a bit pissier lately. Definitely needs to rediscover his inner chill and kindness. :)

Yeah after you went into his legal history and dragged out some poo poo out about a traffic violation and tried to be all puppet master about it.

I imagine the only reason you're still here is because no one reported that either, so don't throw shade on someone for something you did.

By the way MoMA you've never been right about anything new. The Polaris was talked about, even in this thread, before you made that prediction. Agent has at least a dozen correct predictions on you.

You better not let Roberts catch wind of you covering half your screen, you entitled millionaire. If you screw with the vision, you're not part of the vision. You better delete that post or Roberts will feel grief every time somebody in accounting tells him "that weird furry millionaire guy just bought another ship, boss".

Don't hurt Chris. Don't you dare skip parts of the vision. The loving vision is all Chris has.

I'm not protesting anything, I said my piece the other day, I just think that image is funny. I never got the tane thing before, it just used to bug me when people would ask what it was. Then that image dropped on drama day and I keep giggling every time I see it.

Hey poo poo happens, I noticed a post from me earlier in 2015 asking Derek not to do what he does here, but on his own site instead. I understand why mods wouldn't like it here and that's all fine, I also suspect there's a lot of people on SA who don't like the regulars in the thread and even that's understandable. Derek is Derek, I think he's hilarious but then I laugh at myself too.

I'll probably be posting less here until we see how the recent changes play out, I'll still be reading though. Derek's got his forums going and I like talking to Citizens as they make me laugh and I expect he'll attract a few, I hope this is the end of having to explain myself.

Sources, Backed down? For fucks sake, it's all made up. Derek POSSIBLY had one low-level guy who leaked some bullshit two years ago, but CIG found out and fired him (and two others connected). Outside of that, it's all a bunch of made up drivel by a failed game dev who tries ever so desperately to remain relevant and in the spotlight. And for what? The dude is in his 50s; he should loving finish already and live his life free and clear of this mess or anything related to space sims altogether. Who the gently caress cares when CIG will deliver a game? People who look at it as a failure won't buy-in and will move on. Others will buy and will either learn a lesson or get lucky. None of that should matter to someone like Derek Smart Phd (non accredited), with the knowledge to create massive and complex MMOs. The only reason why I think you guys tolerated him for 6000 pages was to trawl him this far for your entertainment. Poor sap never understood . . .

Shut the gently caress up, Toast.

I think they got a 30-day from Derek (which might have been overturned), posted once or twice afterwards then just left.

FAU made all the right decisions for the for the Star Citizen Thread; stamping down on doxxing-esque bullshit, being generous and giving Derek a regular ban instead of a perma so he can come back but he has to swallow his pride, putting cool people in charge and listening and not forcing that IK on us. All good things.

Also probate Marching Powder every time he whines about moderation because take that stupid bullshit to QCS and lol wait they don't give a poo poo about it there either so stop being a whiny baby Marching Powder and post something else you'll stop eating the probations that you richly deserve.

I think toast is melting down because all the co-workers that still speak to him just tell him lies. He always seems happy to share these lies, thinking that this time he'll be seen as a sure source but in the end it just his colleagues having fun off him. He works there and have less reliable source than anyone insiderish in this thread. Being the less reliable here seems to pick his nerves hard.

Why won't he just come back? So what if he got banned and lost his modding powers because he broke the rules and outed a 35 year old guy pretending to be a 14 year old naive nympho.

We already made fun of him before he got banned, what's the problem now?

He would probably blow up the first time he got a 6 hour probation from someone:airquote: for some bullshit.
