Of course the new OP of the SomethingAwful.com Star Citizen thread has a bias against the game. If only we could get an OP that was more fair and balanced we could have a civil discussion in here.

I love pickled beetroot in a sandwich. Plus i like adding crisps (or for chips)

We have crisps in America. Back when Pringles were first introduced, Frito-Lay took them to court over their ability to label their snack as "chips" and they won. Pringles and other potato snacks that are mushed and pressed into shape are crisps. Natural cut potatoes are chips. :eng101:

You do seem to have a habit of defending people like Deloria. Trying to smokescreen what they got caught doing with broken concern type stuff.

I wasn't around for the kiddie diddlers time in the thread. Why do I feel like there'll be some concerned "non defense" of them if i search through some history?

Yeah it was ok. Funny that it's written from the same "hey, been there, done that - it's hosed" perspective as my first July 2015 blog. We're going to start seeing more of these I think.

I can't say I really see the point in outing the little people at CIG, they're just green rookies in the gaming industry, trying to keep a roof over their heads and avoid going bankrupt from student debt. It's a loving hard industry to get into so I can't say I blame those kids for staying on even if they know it's futile, a paying job is a paying job.

You only see higher level exits from the company. Maybe, once hired, the students don't have a choice on leaving freely or not?

The best part about ME:A is that everybody is beating Crobberts to the punch at anything he could possibly design. Even horrible animations and wasted money.

It saddens me to have any of our astronauts, or their missions, compared to Star Citizen. The crew of the Challenger gave their lives in pursuit of bettering our world and expanding our knowledge. They were a source of inspiration to our nation. The catastrophic loss of real heroes who were brave enough to actually attempt something incredibly difficult and dangerous is the exact opposite of *anything* ever associated with that sleaze bag used car salesman.

Roberts best claim to fame if his ludicrous project was successful would be that he made an overly complicated video game.

Not saying its a good analogy, but if you had to pick a mission most comparable... Maybe the Chinese story of a guy strapping rockets to a chair and launching himself to the moon. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wan_Hu

sounds like your gaming community is garbage. there are 2 LGS's near me and both are great and homes away from home. the guys that are "those guys" get weeded out quickly. we had a guy that was not all there in the head and one time at a tourney he punched another guy in the stomache. hes banned from every store in the surrounding area as well now.

This. My LGS/comic shop has an excellent community. They welcome all comers, and being near Seattle, WA we get occasional Wizards employees that show up to draft/take in the scene/ask questions.

The M:tG event they just did had one new guy (late 30's) show up that was kind of intense. Didn't ask but figured he had a military background, but he was welcomed. He kind of raised his voice when a kid (15 or 16) was trying to fast play him, but nobody really called him out because the dude was right, and the kid is known to be a disrespectful poo poo at times.

The most unwelcome I've felt at a LGS was at a WotC store at a mall, strangely enough. But that was a long time ago.

What does this all have to do with SC? I don't know, but I hear SC is bad.
