This thread is like Russian roulette at times.
Yeah, there's never a good reason/excuse to abuse anyone for anything.I don't want to get dinged for being off-topic in that thread but the ghost of Stig compels me to post this....
The topic every game dev is talking about behind closed doors : The cost of doing business
Content warning : I’ve embedded some tweets to various developers that show the sorts of comments that they receive every day. There’s some…medium.com
I can only imagine what it's like to be in some of their houses...
What's the matter love, you've barely touched your tea?

Is it something going on at work? Oh no, you got passed over for that promotion?
no...
Is it your dad? Look, I know you haven't spoken in years, but am sure you can mend things with him, especially with your mum dying last week.
no...
Is it the fact that our son ran away and is living on the streets, addicted to drugs and selling himself to the highest bidder?
no...
Then tell me! I love you more than anything, and I want to help!
Well, its my pretend spaceship you see, I got a new engine for it and I hoped it could jump 80ly with it but it can only jump 78.8ly instead

THE GRIND. RELOGGING. IT'S PART OF THEIR PLAN, BECAUSE OF SHARE PRICES AND BREBUS.
Brebus? Is he part of that game?
HE HATES US ALL.
Who does? And who's this Sally person you've been messaging?
Doesn't matter. None of them play it anyways. Nobody does. Steam charts. Content creat... why is everything going dark?

Well this wins the post of the month if not year.
And it was all just a dream, because it's not like any ED player could ever find a lover to talk to.
abuse implies unwarranted or excessive. Which is a judgement call.
On one hand, words can hurt sometimes. on the other, they're getting paid real money (usually) and maybe lied, undelivered, altered the product in unwanted ways etc.
Who's to say not being worth a pube isn't justified feedback? only history.
Go away.
LOL
You write comedy skits for a living right? The whole student loan thing is just a cover?

>> Googles "BraveStarr"
When I posted the BraveStarr thing earlier it was just something random that came up in a Mr T search. Turned out well though, another meme for general use 
Edit: I don't think I'd ever actually heard of it before today - or I've blocked it out ...

Speaking of Russian. The Russian thread is all over the Mass Manager thing and analyzing the changes down to the 100th of a LY.
EDIT: and comparing to coriolis.io
Apparently one of them got it working but another one hasn't yet. Not sure if its an argument but there sure are a lot of words (as translated by Google) which would not be allowed here...
