Regular posters here may remember that someone photoshopped a fake Erillion profile similar to the official Star Citizen forum profile. Only to fail when it was proven with the "Search" function that no such profile ever existed. And i am using a different name and avatar on the official SC forum (my old Wing Commander call-sign).
I have now been made aware (thank you!) that this special someone ;-) has specifically created a new Erillion profile (including the "correct" Avatar picture) on the official SC forum. And then raised hell on the forums for a day or two to get permabanned (well, banned until 2026 ;-).
I find that quite hilarious.
What do you think? Should i consider this a somewhat strange form of flattery?
Have fun

I do know that some people have chosen Star Citizen as the symbol of everything they consider wrong with the world. It's not unlike what goes on in the real world - with people blowing themselves and a bunch of innocents up.
I don't know why people feel such a burning need to harm that which they don't understand - but that's just the way a certain minority works.
Unfortunately, people love to focus on the vocal minority - because it's "exciting".
Who knows, perhaps it was you all along and this is just some agitprop stuff to try and make someone else look bad?
Will we ever know the truth?

But maybe just someone with too much time on their hands.
I'm sorry someone is treating you like that Erillion.
I'm a big supporter of the SC vision myself - but I don't quite have the ability to remain pleasant and calm like Erillion does. I might be slightly more objective, though
However, sometimes, the irrational hatred gets me to react with too much emotion.
It takes quite the balanced mindset to avoid that - so good on him
It's probably because he's such an effective supporter that this "snowflake" became frustrated enough to turn desperate like this.
Also you are aware you just posted a topic about yourself right?
Don't you find that embarrassing?
..Cake..
The topic was about the guy - not Erillion. It's not rocket science.
What if HE is the real one and you are the fake? Ever consider that?

Aww a cute personal attack by an avid SC fan.
How original
..Cake..
More like this?
Even more original
Don't you find that embarrassing?

Typing " have fun " as a signature even when discussing something "angry" or "sarcastic" or whatnot makes me feel sick when reading your posts. I image you as a cold blooded psycho when you post something with temper and fiercely defending it and at the end,
"Have fun"
I don't know man...I'm a frequent reader on these forums for a very long time if not a "writer" while not having any relevance with any of SC or RSI.Most annoying posts up to date came from you with Wizardry being second. ( no offense, just observations ).
I would remove the Have fun signature below your posts and add it to signature place in your profile settings if you want to yell it in our face that much, just for a little bit sympathy's sake.
Other than that your work is hard and i appreciate the cold blood part in above statement. It's annoying things like these to happen to high profile people..
beLIEve
Ahem, sure.
A more serious issue would have been if the person kept up the pretense long term, could have been much more annoying for you.

The spam-like topics posted almost daily along with the sometimes condescending attitude (although I admit it is needed in some circumstances) will not make you fast friends with those that do have issues with SC. This game does have honest-to-goodness problems that hopefully will be ironed out but time is running out on them to do so before pitchforks are brandished. At some point CR and family need to shit or get off the pot and get SOMETHING like a real game out the door. Your always cheery "what? I don't see no iceberg" stance in the face of real issues, not the bullshit DS/SA shite but actual issues, rubs the wrong way.
That's coming from a backer that still has hope and loves ya like a brother!
