If SC does happen can it be for like two or three days? It can take awhile for them to pick up on things.

I was considering the Dragon Age thread and the Senran Kagura thread as well, but the Star Citizen thread is the clear choice.

J4G as evidenced by one of my old AV's with red text which was bought for me out of that thread (two of them actually; maybe a mod can pull them up or something Im not a wizard so I don't know their powers) is their insult for "Joined for Guild". It's for people who only joined to sign up with Goonrathi. They do not accept you unless you have posted in a way they like for at least 6 months.

It's good to go over the OP in that thread as well as the Gibbus thread a bit about it. Triggers for autistic episodes include:

*Mentioning awesome games that had VERY short development cycles
*Mentioning awesome games made with much less than a 42+million dollar budget
*Asking about Hangar Towels and Stretch Goals
*Asking about membership into Goonrathi
*Talking about the importance of good project management (this thread is the first time I have ever heard the term "armchair project manager")
*Suggesting that backers of SC are caught in a Cycle of Abuse and posting images of the Cycle of Abuse posters common in domestic violence shelters

E: If you can handle sperginess you can ask about realistic physics and the dogfighting module as well as net code

Ive never heard of this game before. How do you spend money on a game that is not available to spend money on and does this work for other things besides bideo games

Just like how nobody could derive any sort of meaningful thoughts out of Gone Home, noone could derive any fun out of Star Citizen. The bigger difference between the two is that Star Citizen doesn't pretend to care about social issues just to score brownie points, and tells you what it is about in short: space.

In this way, we can say Star Citizen, the game which scammed thousands of dollars is less deceitful than the farce that is Gone Home.

It was pretty funny when a goonette started a shitstorm on the SC official forums which led to people asking if there could be space rape and the SC devs never officially saying "no that is bad and you are a bad person".

I don't know if it was the same person, but another goonette asked on the SC official forums for a Women Only Safe Space, that had pretty funny results.

It is. However, the guns have auto tracking so it's not really dogfighting in the sense of the word. The controls are so lovely that CR just threw his hands up and said autolock weapons for everything.

This is a good decision which has worked out well for other franchises.
