Just chiming in to say that it's nice to see a lot of the people I flew with the most having a moral compass.

RIP Schaden.


EDIT: and also Starsector does indeed own bones, though it's more like Mount & Blade's overworld with isometric combat and Battletech's customizatoin.

Also being a Madison person too for the last 10 years, that behavior poo poo was pretty obvious. When I hosted the goonps (let's invite 60 internet spaceship people to the house for three days straight for a kegger!) He would have have a weird little flock of yes-men, and what I uncharitably called the Coterie of Skanks. Including the Toni chick. He'd breeze in, not even introduce the guests (this is where everyone else has been specifically given info and I have at least their spaceship names. Generally people chipped in, because myself and Shiny (the goon I eloped here for) threw down hundreds of dollars for beer, booze, and food. He did not. Like he's the entertainment, not a pleb. An hour later he'd get bored and demand people go to a bar. Some people did, but it's pretty loving poor form to show up to a party like that.

To say nothing of his obvious demand assessment of 'who are you, what do you do' with his whole focus on things that could advance his business. Hindsight, it really did play out like someone mimicking the pua videos, or 'how to be impressive Powerful Man's poo poo.

The weird thing was, early on when I moved here, he was a real person. He got a shovel and helped build the garden. He dog sat, chilled out on the patio, played board games. The internet ate him.

I was always upset I never got to go to iceswarm. I d have loved hanging out with Papa Konno Yoshiho and smoke weed and eat chili.

some guy in an enemy alliance who had a website/pulpit to stand on said his kid niece came home with a backpack with fatbee stickers on it and a message from a stranger along the lines of "The Mittani sends his regards"

at the time, it was laughably, stupidly implausible. It still is, and even if it happened, there's nothing to say it wasn't just some weirdo alliance member doing something incredibly stupid and not directly linked to Mittani, but given the current climate some people's opinion has moved from "This poo poo absolutely never happened" to "... given all the other weird crap there's a non-zero possibility that this happened."

Okay so for anyone on the fence about the mittani apology there is only one thing you need to know.

Mittani has not apologized or reached out to wolf at all. He "apologized" to her by posting an apology on a forum which she was kicked from and understandably has not spent any time regaining access to.

Damage control nothing more.

gently caress, I almost made it one time with a couple of canadagoons, I think we had a tentative idea to get me, Leask, and KColor to convoy down there one year but it ended up being a noop

Nah, it was a keylogger installed by a goon, who's name i can't remember, wanna say it started with a T, if anyone remembers the goon thay was staying at remedials house as a roommate for a few months under the specific direction of Mittani (Best man at Remedial's wedding, remember) as a "security assurance" to make sure he couldn't skip away with the Titan fund as they were suspicious & because they thought he was skimming off the resub commissions and goon merch (he was, to both)

Man as weird as the directors of today are they sure were weirder in like 2008. What’s funny is none of this dumb bullshit from Digi doxing on up ever amounted to any strategic gains in the game. All our big “disband em!” espionage wins were tripped into.

I swear to god the only reason you fuckers ever win for as much misplaced effort you put in dumb poo poo is that the other side is even dumber.

Free Stucks was when I was very new. Backstory, I played for less than a year, 5 months of which I told people I had a broken mic until I was scouting for SUAS in a fleet, my client locked up because a gate camp was too much for my lovely computer. I mic'd up to tell people not to jump. Oh poo poo, a girl. At that time, there was I think Blue Medusa and one other rarely active ladygoon players who were 'out'. 2000+ goons, statistics say likely more...
Anyhow, we had just lost a carrier to a hostile squadwarp, (bobfrommatketing?) free move was off, and as a person in Specops, they had me juggling bonuses because I was able to keep track of who had what 5's, etc. Actually, I recall we had just reset AAA, because it had a bunch of bittervets coming out of the woodwork. People are making GBS threads up comms, I am trying to fill squad after squad, the chat is also shat up, so I asked to have people clear comms and keep it to text so I could get people to identify themselves and roles. One guy in particular. I tell him to shut the gently caress up.

So dumbfuck Brit takes offense, (Stucks) makes a bunch of comments about girls in his internet spaceships, get back in the kitchen etc. FC boots him. Someone reinvites him starts it again. Booted, called primary. His mates get in on it. Booted, primaried, podded, kicked. I am not a director back then. I didn't demand anything, he just annoyed the FCs. It becomes an instant meme. People posting Free Stucks everywhere. Within a couple hours people had dox'd me, had dug up tons of old photos (photos I had lost track of, I actually saved a bunch down!). Failed to find the art school nudes, comedy.

Anyhow, 20+ call out thread of how I was a horrible fat whore. (Context - I wear 34/30 men's pants back then). Met a couple of them in Chicago, and I did get drunk and in one's face (forgot who) and he ran away. I was miserable for a bit, but I won't give up and mostly I stuck around because I didn't want to give people the pleasure of chasing me off. Then I ran off with SpecOps and SUAS and had a great time as a suicidal dictor pilot. God I loved tackling poo poo...
