Even if you don't end up using it for this specifically it's a pretty handy tool for rapid screencapture and sharing.

Her own impeding ridicule should be enough punishment and entertainment source. That was rather the point of my post, to steer the ship towards Chris, who is really the star of the CIG show. There are too many tragedies befalling the people he surrounds himself with.

^^^ I think it's straight to youtube, pre-recorded. At 1:00:32, towards the end of the interview, there are some mysterious chopping sounds while Chris is talking. I wonder what they could be? fuctifino fucked around with this message at 05:04 on Feb 1, 2016 |

I skipped like 1800 posts, but that second to last paragraph made me realize what's really going on with some citizens. It's geek social fallacies all the way down. "CIG are my friends, but if I criticize them then our friendship will end"

This ^ She's also an exposed liar with a virtually non-existent history. The fact she is a woman is irrelevant. Chris has a history in making video games and movies, albeit a very chequered one. Ben has dedicated his life to Chris since a teen. Sandi only got her position because she was married to Chris... and even that marriage was kept secret at first. She has no checkable experience, and she's lied about her qualifications. She's bulldozed her way into an actress role in SQ42, and she's left a lot of questions unanswered... and her lies and half-truths to date have just created more questions. She gets a lot of attention because of her actions, not because of her gender. e: I agree with the not being creepy stuff btw

documenting Sandi's claims regarding her constantly-revised employment history and job qualifications is fine. speculating about the intricacies of her relationship with chris and overall personality is creep territory, don't do that. edit: in this case i mean creep as, this sort of thing isn't particularly relevant to the phenomenally interesting catastrophe that is star citizen, and instead is more about them as people. we know sandy's bad at her job, and that's what we're all interested in, so let's focus on that? alf_pogs fucked around with this message at 05:30 on Feb 1, 2016 |

alf_pogs posted:documenting Sandi's claims regarding her constantly-revised employment history and job qualifications is fine. I agree with all of this, but the line isn't always as easy to define. I offer a real life example: I had a coworker who was excellent at his job. For some reason, the CEO started to be a real bastard to this guy, tasking him with impossible jobs, etc. Over about a year, the guy started stressing out and making all kinds of mistakes. In the end, he was fired. Now during that year of decline, anyone could have easily made fun of him for being "bad at his job." And they would have been right, but that doesn't take into account the environment that created that decline in performance. Never mind any one person at CIG - the whole organization is full of dysfunction. There's crazy amounts of stress, paranoia, pressure I can't even imagine, and there's this one guy at the top who's responsible for it all. It's fun to make fun of all the dumb quotes and missteps taken by all the employees along the way, but I don't have all the facts. Can they really all be this dumb all the time, or is much of this the result of the natural breakdown most humans feel under incredible strain? Imagine what it must be like right now to work in the UK studio for example. If Erin Roberts suddenly flipped out, I'm not sure I'd find it all that funny. There are lots of laughs to be had here, but I feel a little guilty since it's mixed so finely with tragedy.

As if CIG wasn't enough of a mess all by itself. Sometimes I wonder if some companies don't set themselves up that way on purpose specifically to deter conversations along those lines.
