Their constant cries of "its public record" makes me think they just searched court records for people named Derek Smart.

I have reported this person, and several others to Reddit. I also have an active ticket with Reddit in which they asked me for some of the material that's being posted. This person's name was already in the list I gave to Reddit; and I just added his latest post to the Reddit ticket.
This information is FALSE. Accusing me of a crime is legally actionable, and it appears if since you guys somehow got lax, they've been doing various things (hence the reason I opened the ticket) in this sub. I know that you have been somewhat diligent in the past with this sort of thing, so I wanted to bring it directly to your attention; at the very least so that I can point out that I did

Comments that aren't reported will not get attention from us, volunteer moderators are not expected to read every comment posted within a subreddit under their control. As this has been escalated prior to us being notified the comment will stand until administration levels a judgement on it. Going behind our backs is not surprising, so don't expect us to bend over backwards for you as its clear your message is only being sent this way since the admins have not acted as you wanted them to. As such we will follow their discretion.

You made your bed, emjoy your sleep.

"going behind your backs" Are you serious right now?

Posts get reported all the time; and they don't get deleted. Do you think I even read this sub-Reddit? I don't. I was only alerted to it when Goons posted it on my Discord channel and over on SA. So I added it to the ticket because the person handling that ticket, also asked me specifically if we were reporting posts to the mods; and I said yes.

I tend to give people enough notice before I do something. And I think that since 2015, you guys running this sub Reddit have had enough of warning as to what goes on there, that the purpose of the sub Reddit is for no other purpose other than a harassment campaign. And going by the comments in the ticket, as well as notations by others, the people in there have proven this all by themselves. And it was only a matter of time.

I'm not going to engage in any lengthy back and forth with you. So do what you want; then only you - the mods of this Reddit - and the people stealth doxxing us, attacking me and my family, FALSELY accusing me of a crime etc, will only have yourselves to blame for the outcome.

If the 100% Guaranteed Legal Action is against some redditor I'm going to be sorely disappointed.

DapperDon posted:

I don't think it is going to come to that. If this went straight to the Reddit Execs as Derek says, then they know full well that that sub is now a legal liability and that is just not something they will tolerate from a small insignificant group of autists. If anything, a short letter from an attorney would have that thing shut down within the hour. Derek is not a public figure so any defense towards that is not going to fly either.

I have always maintained that if they cross the line again, that I was going to do everything in my power to get that sub Reddit closed.

Has anything CIG or any other game studio ever done taken less time than expected? Ever? In the history of development? The answer is no, so there's no basis for expectation that somehow this will It will take *longer* than expected.

They aren't broken promises... all of those systems will eventually come. But they simply cannot afford to wait until they are all done to "launch" the game. It's common sense.

But most of all, there simply isn't any *reason* to wait for them to launch the game. The benefits of a commercially released, polished product, far outweighs the negatives. All we're talking about here is content, not functionality for the most part.

I'm positive Chris and CIG are thinking along the same lines, and I'd hope the community starts to come around to the idea.

I love that his response basically boils down to "I know I'm a lovely mod but gently caress you for pointing that out to the admins!!"
lmao you can't expect us to actually read the forum we moderate.

DapperDon posted:

The biggest lie there is that they do in fact read those comments. That mod in particular banned me because I used the word autist more than one time. That guy is very much broken in the head.

No video game company has ever met a deadline on anything in the history of time! Therefore Star Citizen is normal.

I'm still tickled over 'precarious funding'.

That's a gold image right there - we need an animated gif of a limited edition porsche pulling up to a space door, which opens to reveal a crowd of motion captured dancers peeling off to give way to an image of Chris on a yacht holding up a banner with 'Precarious Funding' emblazoned across it.

Star Citizen is simultaneously exceptional, and therefore deserves special consideration, and also completely normal and therefore everything is fine.
