I've never thought it was a scam or called it one I don;t think.
It's a hilarious train wreck for sure, it's good to see the redit guys try to jump start their collective brain cell to conjure up various things though, so far it's win win for me, I got to make as fun video and now I get to watch the pure, distilled idiocy of redit dealing with it :laugh:

I sunk thousands of Euros in worthless stuff like FIFA points, iOS Game IAPs, Overwatch lootboxes and Hearthstone packs.
I regret the entry pledge of Store Citizen way more, because the former products were actual games.

lmbo copping a probation because you can't stop yourself from using one particular word in a context where it could come off as a slur isn't bullying, while writing that word down and posting it to the internet isn't wrongthink because it's not just one but two actual things you've done.

Excuse me, Star Citizen isn't supposed to be "fun". This isn't a game, this is a simulation that will train future generations for the rigors of life among the stars. You clearly aren't mature and intelligent enough to be a part of the revolution.

Seriously, if you just went back into the studio and recorded a decent follow up to your 1990s albums, you wouldn't need to invest so much time and energy in your online identity.

I would have had some serious money on Laurie Anderson being the reason, but I've heard that about Kate. She can heft a baby grand with some force for such as short bird.

I have news about that, but I feel a bit odd about clogging things up with it, basically I am on now on plan C, the cyborg poo poo was a no go in the end, so now I am having BAHA hearing aids, which I really wanted to avoid.
They drill two titanium bolts into your skull then a hearing aid clips to them on each side, so sound gets transduced straight to my cochlear's using my skull.
It's all a bit mad, and I am really not happy about it, I currently have a test version which clamps to my head using this metal hair band type thing, it does work and they say the final version will be even better, but yeah, I didn't want to end up where I have ended up really.
The upside is when I get them installed I'll be able to bluetooth music and TV directly into my head though the hearing aids, so on balance it loving rocks.

That sounds like it totally sucks but also it sounds totally awesome at the same time so I'm not really sure how to react. Glad you at least have a solution though for sure, even if it doesn't mean you have a cool terminator face all hidden under the goopy stuff behind your skin.

I'm sort of out of options, the bit of your hearing from outer ear to just behind the ear drums is basically dying, so we need to bypass all that poo poo and direct to brain pretty much, it's just over the years I've seen people with these and it always stuck in my mind as something I never wanted, I have come to terms with it now though and looking at the positives - I'll be able to hear people and it turns out even with this test version the stereo in my car is insanely cool, the music has no direction, it's just in my head :v:

It's been 24 years, 6 major operations and countless other poo poo, so at this point I'll just be glad it's over, sort of - I'll always need operations every other year or so I think.

And also your hearing and the operations and stuff.

At least the stuff with the box was funny. Having to get rods drilled into your skull isn't very funny at all.
