MMORPG.com was a great website at one time, then DS and all his little minions moved in and turned it into a cesspool of nothing but a bunch of garbage post. No wonder I don't visit it as often as I use to, because not a day goes by and there is a nonsense negative post about SC or CR.

How so, I know am not part of his minions. In fact i don't believe he has any minions. Seems to not be how he rolls.
Now Roberts seems to have total control over all SC so you may have it backwards.

Sorry I was here posting my worries about the project before DS showed up as well as many of the other people here with criticism.

Sorry but the problem is quite the opposite of what you're saying.
The white knights/fanbois derail every good thread that exposes all the behind the scenes wrong doings with the project and they wind up getting locked.
Thoes topics by far generate waaaaaaaaaayyyy more traffic to this site than the other crap posts that are just meant to promote star citizen. Look at the most recent locked topics and you'll see they they have more visits and comments by far than most topics that have been here since 2014.
You know why this is? It's because nobody gives a rats ass about an interview with Erin Roberts, and nobody cares about the ship pipeline, or the current patch notes. Sorry let me correct myself. Not as many people care about thoes topics as they do about the topics that are being locked.
So when you say these so called "garbage" posts are bring the site down I call BS on you Good Sir. They're not garbage posts. They're posts that are speaking about topics that are sending light on all the crooked, rotten crap going on behind the scenes and they're generating an extreme amount of traffic to this site which as you know is the most important statistic for a website when selling advertising.
So when the fanbois and white knights are derailing threads and trolling/baiting and getting these threads locked you are HURTING MMORPG.com.
The irony of this post being me replying to your off-topic comment, or should I say bait that is........ derailing the discussion. Which is exactly how all thoes other great topics get closed.
OK back on topic here.... I don't think what was done with that artwork is considered parody. I mean, if they were operation within lawful bounds then why suddenly remove all of that artwork from their facebook page? Seems fishy to me!
Well idk how Chris is affiliated with this project.Nobody just blindly joins in anything without finding out what is going on.If Chris is heavily invested then yes of course he would know exactly what is going on.
So without knowing anything at all about this,i cannot comment either way.To me everything in life is common sense,we know what to expect from people. I can think WAY back like 20 or so years when that TV celebrity had her own clothes fashion ware,then it was discovered the clothes were being made by slave children over seas.Then of course when confronted by media she claims "I didn't know" which is total BS.
Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.

You sir, are the only normal person in this thread. Isn't it amazing how so many people feel they can comment either way without having any knowledge about the issue? Both sides making stuff up, defending their positions like their life depended on it?

Yes, I'm sure the reason you rarely visit this site anymore has nothing to do with the fact that you've lost pretty much all credibility here. That doesn't factor into it at all, right? No, just blame Derek Smart for the entire site going down in flames!
It's sad how you people immediately blame him for everything. Personally, I think you're giving the asshole far too much credit. CIG's troubles were made known long before DS got involved, and Roberts and CIG have been fanning the flames themselves far more effectively with their unprofessional conduct than any amount of posts from Smart ever could have.
But I guess a scapegoat just makes it easier for those such as yourself to deal with the situation. Very well.

I have to agree, no matter the topic this is the case... the funny part is most of these threads start with responses like "why did you post this..it means nothing", yet 20 pages later... Hence why I said "no.. nope" if I felt this meant much or warranted much of a discussion, I'd have to go hunt down Bill Murphy & Co.. for giving projects like Greed Monger, Age of Mourning and Dark & Light... a platform to sell their wares (or lack there of )...

I think they need to just work on SC now, making actual code. Peroid end of story.
supporting any other game REGARDLESS of corruption or not is a waste of time
thus..bringing up possible corruption in said game and/or prooving it one way or the other is about as productive as CR's 10 for the Chairman....no correction...less productive
Please do not respond to me, even if I ask you a question, its rhetorical.

It sounds strange but in some twisted way controversy is good for a project. The worst thing that can happen to a game project - ESPECIALLY a crowdfunded videogame project - is that NO ONE CARES. Or - as someone has so aptly put it in the past - "NOT A SINGLE FUCK GIVEN!". There are thousands of games waiting to be "greenlit" or are in "Early Access" on Steam ... and almost no one has heard about them. Or wants to hear about them.
That there is constant discussion about Star Citizen - and all the headlines generated because of it - ultimately has helped the project immensely. Although personally it is tedious to hear the same arguments being rehashed every week it seems to have the effect of keeping SC in many minds and in the headlines.
So ... to answer the OP .... ultimately it does not matter. Star Citizen has been mentioned AGAIN. Chris Roberts has been mentioned AGAIN. + 2 for the project. If the boardgame survives Kickstarter and what art is used ... i personally doubt that in 6 months many people remember ... or care.
Hmm another day and another pointless CIG/CR/DS/ALLBS thread.
Lets see what tomorrow brings.
Tomorrow brings an epic level EVE fight (going on right now) where the Goons/Imperium get their gonads kicked by a 1000 corps allied force. 3500 ships on grid.
** sigh ** alas we wont see that in any game other than EVE (not in SC, not in E:D)

TheSmarty is very humble today in his Tweet. He predicts an upcoming Star Citizen E.L.E. "revelation" / "breaking news".
Then he says it takes 3 more days and he seems to hint at the things we already heard here:

Update: the E.L.E. allegedly is about "downsizing" at CIG (but no numbers given)
