That denies that I'm ever racist at all. a hole-y ghost posted:This black guy, see, that's the guy that's racist! See how many racists that guy hangs out with?

Here's one: quote:No, but If I was going to rape 12 year old girls I'd get a vasectomy... but I'm not so I won't so there. #14,547 Ha ha! Right? Here, click the link, replace "hitler" with whatever cool word you like and read away! Post the funniest ones here! http://trelane.hamtwoslices.net/index.php?query=hitler

kikkelivelho posted:I'm not defending Ben's actions. I'm just annoyed by the fact that people are trying to link this to Chris and his company when no such connection exists. The "GAME" was supposed to be released two times by now. And it's not. I have no faith in SC ever coming out. What may be released is some kind of unskippable 3 hour CGI cutscene called squadron 42.

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:Ben Lesnick is the original community manager for Cloud Imperium Games. He is the face of the company, with more on-screen time on a weekly basis than anyone including Chris Roberts and his wife Sandi (who is also the head of marketing). He is personally responsible for creating one of the most toxic, cult-like, insular gaming communities on the planet. A community that aggressively attacks anyone who disagrees with their perspective that Star Citizen is the greatest game ever made. It doesn't matter if that person is new to the game, has been around for years and grown disillusioned, or a beloved web personality who is also a victim of cancer. Ben currently listed as a game developer, the director of community engagement, and also the director of starships. During his time at Cloud Imperium Games he has developed a reputation for habitually lying, particularly when doing so opens up the possibility of escaping controversy. We see the same behavior now as he tries to pass off a lie that is easily disproved. There is little reason to believe that the person he was in 2008 is significantly different from the person he is in 2016. His words certainly hold no bearing, except to validate that the statements are his. This is a good post and true.

CrazyLoon posted:Well clearly, Ben thought it was a wise idea to recently post it on his public company-linked Twitter and on public RSI company forums, over which he is now grand poobah. A fine young lad you raised and I'm sure he's past all that now, what with him giving homophobes, racists and misogynists that send their dick pics to any woman in the community on said forums a free pass! Hey, have you got any of that dickwulf stuff? I think it's pertinent now that we find this out about Ben. The company he keeps and all that. I'd also like to throw that stuff where he was shutting down the female gamers when the CIG forums were starting out.

I would love nothing more than for everything Chris Roberts promised to come true. Can you imagine the grief we could cause in that game? If Star Citizen never comes out, or comes out in a terrible state, we gloat. We win. If Star Citizen comes out and is just half of what was promised, we have fun playing it. We win.
