Streetroller posted:Man I gotta be honest. Here's the thing; to them you're not a person. At best you're a threat. At worse you're the equivalent of a meme to them. They don't think of your feelings, or your actions, or why (or even if) you care. They only think of you in abstract, easily disregarded terms. Your disability is an easy target, it's part of what makes you unique and therefore it's something about you they can attack. In person they wouldn't say anything; they probably wouldn't even look you in the eye. The fact that you believed so strongly in this that you decided to put yourself out there is amazing. It has nothing to do with who you are, it has nothing to do with your disability, it has everything to do with you being a threat that they need to attack. The only way to survive is to give them the same consideration that they give you. These aren't sick individuals that really think this way, they're anonymous words hiding behind a screen and a keyboard. They only get power by being acknowledged, which means they only have power if you grant it to them. I'm probably preaching to the choir at this point, but I feel that it needs to be emphasized how unimportant they are until you respond to them. Before you respond, ask yourself "is this response worth empowering the rear end in a top hat who wrote that?" Is it worth rewarding their behavior with acknowledgement? Usually it's not. I'm rooting for you. I hope you stick it to Chris Roberts and CIG and humiliate the whole lot of them by getting what you're owed. Good luck.

Like...I can only imagine how much worse it's gotten since then. Back then at the very least one could still cause some ruckus and get at least 1 thread going, where you didn't have to suffer the assholes. Nowadays I'm p sure they don't care about the 'snowflakes' anymore and just indulge in this crap towards anyone that's an SC hater to the max.

It sucks rear end to be the target of idiot rage. Derek knows this for sure, I have been there too for other deeds. To some extent we put ourselves out there but these idiots pick us too. The hate and idiocy can be brutal, and it can quickly turn to real toxicity and suffering. It is important to remember that it isn't a battle and you don't have to see this as a fight - think Grosse Pointe Blank where Cusack disables the former bully with "there is no us". Morons suck rear end but they are morons and you can trust them to be weak and incapable. I know the directed idiocy and hatred is directed at you but why put too much stock in their ability to hurt you when we generally do not put stock in any other effort they undertake. As my mom used to tell many morons "do your damage", most wont have the energy, and the rest are, as Dr. Manhattan might say, as dangerous as the world smartest termite.

Streetroller posted:Man I gotta be honest. Realtalk, don't sap your precious time and energy to engage them if those two things are running low on your end. There's wanting to appear you don't care what others think of you (which is every single cultist of SC ever) and actually not caring what others think of you. It's admirable, that you want to keep engaging them at a human level, but just doing that is assigning far too much effort to caring what they think of you. It's the mistake that every one of the cultists that popped into your video to trashtalk you has made: "I don't care what you think anyway, and that's why I need to ad hominem you to death!" So don't repeat their mistake. Focus on your lawsuit more. Or on other stuff in your life. Anything, but validating the sorts of assholes that write poo poo like this at you, the kind that has no merits whatsoever that are even worth thinking about.

I've probably dealt with citizens on youtube more than anyone and you have to flip it on its head. Encourage each and every one of them to post freely and comment more and more. This is the absolute best way to make everyone reading their comments slowly back away and eventually see them as lunatics, they do it all for you, you just got to be bullet proof while they do. I've lost count to the accounts that people have closed, deleted and abandoned because I let them hang themselves in public. When they said 'I hope you get cancer' to me my inner babel fish translated that into 'look at how loving obnoxious I look'. Not a single one of them has the balls to actually say anything insulting to anyone irl so don't let that worry you. See every insult as a badge of honor, every impotent rage directed your way as a certificate - these people are loving idiots and you invited them in, do not be concerned about them proceeding to try and eat your curtains and talk to your plant pots.

Beet Wagon posted:That clip reminded me of something. One thing that I've noticed over the past year (and you all have as well, I'm sure) is the big push to "emergent gameplay" which honestly should tell someone everything they need to know about Star Citizen. Even way back during the kickstarter, Star Citizen was billed as being a sandbox, but one rich in deep lore and narrative. Backers (myself included) were excited about how different this would be than the "one faceless spaceman among millions" style of Elite. Chris told us that all the NPCs would have their own lives, their own jobs and tasks. Star Citizen would be the perfect blending of a big sandbox and a rich narrative, giving players freedom without making players feel like just another number. I think the key problem here is they tried to make all these crazy designs without any upper management thought on how feasible they were, how they interacted with each other, how much of a network load it would make, the load on a client computer, development time, suitability in the confines of their technology choices and the technology choices themselves. With all of that being excused by 'fidelity', 'no cheating', 'never been done before' and 'no publishers'. And the biggest rationale was the thought if any design didn't work out they could just go for a simpler design. Which is the critical problem with Star Citizen, they have no simpler designs. A simpler design isn't the consequence of a complex design failure, it's its own design with a host of required considerations. So when their designs fail they have nothing. It's back to the drawing board with multiple years wasted on designs which yielded nothing. And that's is why you get the emphasis on "emergent gameplay" because nothing works and it will years minimum before a system that works is implemented.

Tokamak posted:I thought they pretty much confirmed nothing is coming in 3.1 when they posted a preliminary schedule the other week. So this is a pretty new development then? Not old news? I’m surprised there hasn’t been an outcry, particularly since this is supposed to be the new era of quarterly releases and accelerating progress. Oh well, early days, Alpha, blah-blah-blah... Also, it only just fully hit me today the irony of CIG’s plight with respect to Squadron’s relationship to Crytek and Coutts. CIG must have made explicit declarations to Coutts about Squadron as a discreet standalone game, considering that Squadron alone was used as collateral for the loan. Yet to Crytek and elsewhere, Squadron is part of Star Citizen. I would assume Crytek would be especially interested to see the Coutts loan documentation, to see just how CIG languaged Squadron to Coutts. Seems that would be far better than a public statement history repeat with confusing and contradictory quotes. How could they not have been extremely explicit in emphasizing their separateness? They’d have had to in order to reduce the appearance of risk and/or overcomplexity, right? (Maybe this has already been discussed and I just missed it. Or maybe I misunderstand CIG’s position with respect to their separateness or not. It’s changed often enough that it’s hard to keep track. Or maybe CIG’s approach is that it doesn’t matter because NOTHINGBURGER... ) G0RF fucked around with this message at 04:21 on Jan 12, 2018 |

With this years rent I could afford 8 completionist packs with Javlens. Or I could buy a Tank....well actually self-propelled artillery. Or I can seriously look at buying a Cessna 421B or C. And that's still after buying $10,000 worth of I-bonds to fund my daughter's education.

What our esteemed dancey cat says is the truth. Letting them hang themselves also has the added benefit of making them really insanely mad. 90% of the best meltdowns I've caused have been simply because I refused to engage and I let the person beat themselves to death against that wall. Also, plenty of other people will tell these people they are idiots for you. Let everyone else do all the work, and pay those dipshits no mind.
