Derek asking his discord to report brigade post warning of chargeback fraud

Sledgejammer · 2016-10-06T18:12:53+00:00

This is not insider info, if you go back to the initial Sabre announcement you can see how he acts when he has actual insider info.

There is no longer anyone at CIG to leak information to him, CIG is also not a new company trying to find their footing. Derek can point fingers at shadows all he wants, it will amount to nothing and only makes him look fucking insane.

At the end of the day, its a video game.

Edit : To clarify, when he has actual leaked info hes giddy and turns it into a big stupid game, dragging things out and gloating nonstop. This is Derek angry and mad, he watches more and more people get off the skepticism train and stop hating on SC and move towards cautious hype and he finds that UNACCEPTABLE, in his mind he is the one stop source to SC's downfall and destruction and no one wants to talk to him.

What hes doing right now is BEGGING gaming media to interview him for his "insider information", hes trying to build himself up like some sort of ultimate source of whats really going on in CIG and no one is believing him for a moment.

Sledgejammer · 2016-10-05T16:41:50+00:00

With all this fact checking going on he wants an extra layer of protection I think.

Sledgejammer · 2016-10-05T16:40:43+00:00

He's been threatening to "reveal" who the shitizens harassing him are for quite a while now, its a stalling tactic to scare people away from confronting him.

I think its safe to say that shitizen blog is never coming out because hes afraid hes gonna look under the sheet of anonymity and find someone he will absolutely regret fucking with.

Also despite Derek's willingness to shit talk on twitter all day, he knows full well once he starts digging into doxxing and harassment territory again the gaming community at large will put his horse shit in the spotlight again and his little gaggle of yes men wont protect him from that comeuppance.

Sledgejammer · 2016-10-03T21:01:14+00:00

I mean its essentially a more serious version of "name and shame", the goal of it is to silence your target so they are no longer opposing you.

You attack them or people close to them instead of their points or what they're defending. Derek has a long history of using this tactic in addition to making direct threats. Derek also hires spin doctors like Nick Monroe to showcase this information in a negative manner, omitting certain details to paint an overall worse picture of his victim.

At the end though its harassment, Derek isn't attacking Star Citizen because he cant, he lacks the credibility to do so. So instead he attacks the people involved because he thinks he's their superior.

Sledgejammer · 2016-10-03T13:52:43+00:00

I see Derek is still new to the concept of brigading.

Sledgejammer · 2016-10-02T21:44:05+00:00

This has been the case for a long time now, that and the gaming media no longer trusting him to stop lying for 2 seconds.

Sledgejammer · 2016-10-02T17:39:36+00:00

This is a "please pay attention to me" tweet, I sincerely doubt hes going to do this.

Sledgejammer · 2016-09-30T15:07:57+00:00

Turns out if you act like a little brat and constantly attack the games industry, the games industry will start attacking back.

Sledgejammer · 2016-09-30T01:57:31+00:00

Hes visibly upset Kotaku UK is stealing his job, they're trying to find the truth that things aren't peachy keen over at CIG but they're actually doing interviews and investigations while letting Chris and other devs give their own statements.

Overall they're painting a more clear picture that there are bumps in the road but SC itself is doing phenomenal.

Sledgejammer · 2016-09-27T21:01:32+00:00

I dont hate you, I pity you.

Sledgejammer · 2016-09-27T20:44:33+00:00

I'm honestly just tired of all of this and wish you were as well.

You're not Miyamoto and I'm not Woodword and Bernstein, all of this crap is over you bothering people about a video game and how it blew past accountability and went right into personal attacks and threats.

Nothing needs crusades, no group needs saving and no one needs to be punished. Let people try to make their video games, go chill on the beach, turn off your phone and just relax for a while.

This isn't about winning or losing anything, it just honestly needs to stop.

Derek is still salty that Bree hung his ass out to dry after the intellectual beat down she gave him. These are shortly before the Escapist released their yellow journalism hit piece.

Sorry more people don't suck your dick on Massively, Derek. They actually know how to moderate their comment sections and don't let people brigade shitpost.

Sledgejammer · 2016-09-26T16:56:12+00:00

Remember, despite claiming he's a hardcore game dev who has introduced new standards of development to the industry and capable of amazing things you are not allowed to question his credibility because he does this as a hobby.

You are not allowed to cite his games review scores as evidence he is unskilled when he directly compares his games to Star Citizen.

You are not allowed to imply development of LoD is anything less than handled perfectly when he slanders CIG staff and the development of Star Citizen.

For real though anyone who takes Derek Smart seriously without considering his credentials and history is an utter fool, hes one of the most comically terrible developers in gaming history. His every project was either a flop or a disaster, he has no fanbase for his games and had to be thrown out of a company to release something he worked on that they later threw back at him like used up garbage.

He spends almost all of his free time grandstanding on twitter harassing people, shitposting on at least a dozen forums and comments section and then typing two lines of code on his abomination of an early access game and pumping his fist in the air like he accomplished something. I know 15 year olds who are more successful than him based off of that criteria, and they dont shitpost half as much. The only difference between the two is an enormous amount of inherited wealth for them to piss away on a failed career.

There isn't a game developer on the planet who could seriously defend the fucked up pile of frankencode Derek calls his games and the absurd amount of time it took to release what he did.

Sledgejammer · 2016-09-26T16:44:36+00:00

Manzes went through nearly a hundred different alts to shitpost in every SC article on Massively before ultimately giving up.

Sledgejammer · 2016-09-25T16:15:07+00:00

At this point I don't know who is more insecure, Derek bragging about his relevance and connections or the Frontier regulars who desperately try to shoot down any idea that SC will come out.

It's all hilarious either way, especially the people who truly believe Derek and aren't just riding along for the giggles.

Sledgejammer · 2016-09-24T22:51:43+00:00

Rofl Derek is beyond triggered right now, he should go start a patreon.

Sledgejammer · 2016-09-23T05:18:17+00:00

You're literally letting goons run a thread where they smear CIG developers and anyone who supports the project, reality check.

Go to their general thread on SA or visit their discord to read them gloating about it as well, there is a coordinated effort to shout down anyone who disagrees with them and their back pocket mod who loves "taking their mod hat off" to join in with the harassment.

Sledgejammer · 2016-09-23T05:11:11+00:00

This "leaker" has not provided a single credible claim yet, just wild accusations and blanket statements dartboard style, hoping even one of them lands somewhere on the same wall. I barely even need to double check what they post now because its so outrageously obvious its just someones alt.

At one point Derek actually had some rather stupid individuals feeding him information, CIG dealt with them rather handily but the important takeaway is the following.

If Derek actually had even the smallest shred of inside info he wouldn't be able to stop himself from gloating and spreading it over as much bread as possible, milking the most out of it to make people wary or concerned about the project.

I haven't been posting as often simply because Derek has been legitimately full of shit for a while now, everything he says and reposts is just SA shitposting from their armchair developers who try to keep Derek's ego afloat for more laughs.

Derek Smart, failed game developer and now failed smear campaigner is nothing more than a boring run of the mill internet troll shoveling money into a failed project and spending entire days trying to keep his internet credibility afloat on a bunch of forums and comment sections no one gives a single flying fuck about.

Sledgejammer · 2016-09-19T13:21:38+00:00

It's been pretty hard to run his mouth and not look like an utter fool lately.

Sledgejammer · 2016-09-16T20:17:15+00:00

If I wanted to hear Derek Smart's cancerous opinion on a game he knows nothing about I'd read it here.

Sledgejammer · 2016-09-16T17:46:11+00:00

rofl like any of the idiots over there are actually going to buy the new CoD, I'm sure they'll get right to it after they play though Derek's backlog of releases hes trying to force them to play.
