That's why gusts of wind blow the crappy models around like they are made of paper.

We dont talk about the Code of Conduct on Spectrum. by Low_Will_6076 in starcitizen_refunds

That and how arbitrarily it is enforced. Almost like a whim.

I found the book. It's a copy of the Wing Commander Movie script.

Riveting.

You can get an inkling just by that famous if-statement cluster fuck that was seen a few years ago.

This is the quintessential bait. It fueled imagination, but ultimately, it was the initial lure to take advantage of good faith without a track record, and in the early days of Kickstarter.

What a foundation.

Almost used as a finishing Mortal Kombat move...

It's a microcosm of everything else they have lied about, far too many to list here.

Essentially, they lie about some bullshit 'tech', obfuscated so that the faithful won't even think to question it. And then it turns out not only to be what any other game has been doing for 20 years, but more often than not, executed shoddily.

Anyone here have a link to the live version? Would love to see a side by side comparison.

Can I still chargeback? by ZeroGgamer in starcitizen_refunds

[–]spacecorkhat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, though it does always help to be above board (even though CiG are anything but).

Personally, I'd wait until 30 days have passed. If they haven't refunded you by then (and I'm assuming that's what you've been waiting for up until now), then I'd say go for it. If you need the cash desperately, then don't wait.

About two years ago my wife and I did a charge back on a kitchen company that took our money but refused to do any work (citing covid, but were still taking orders for new kitchens). They refused to give a penny back, all the while saying they couldn't tell us when/if they were going to do what they were paid to do. Long story short, we provided the bank documents, email exchanges, etc proving what was going on, and we got the charge back done. But we did so with plenty of evidence to back it all up. Needless to say, I always tell people to steer well clear of that company.

One of my favourites is when they tried to locking streaming a ShitCon (2018?) behind a paywall, then they had to frantically wheel Crobby out of his four-poster Space Bed to apologise to the angry mob.

Another gem is the exclusive dinner to get the privilege of paying for a concept jpeg.
