Quote from: Ruprecht on December 15, 2024, 10:43:16 PMI have a question for Zak.
Why did so many people try to destroy you in the wake of the Mandy claims?

Ask Neil Gaiman, Kehinde Wiley and Ed Piskor.

Quote from: Kyle Aaron on December 16, 2024, 01:06:30 AMHe must not have been beaten enough as a child. 

Maybe not, but as an adult, by all appearances, he is losing teeth at an alarming rate.  Scurvy?  Maybe he's like a GW ork -- or is it orruk these days -- and thinks to use teeth as money.  Do attorneys in America accept teeth as payment for services rendered?

This plan of his seems like an inefficient way to bring about any sort of change in the usual content on the social media platforms mentioned.

Quote from: Zak S on December 14, 2024, 07:13:51 AMEvery time there's a conspiracy theory

I mean it's a bunch of almost-socks you want to incentivize, and you're not just targeting some big corporations, but also some normal sites like this one.

"Targeting?"

Participating.

QuoteWhy are you always so wacky?  You know you could just build a forum or a subreddit or a discord and people would come and hang out.  Why this scheme?

Because the RPG community is one continuous fabric, whether it wants to admit that or not--an attempt to improve the community that is only in isolated zone cannot protect itself from attacks from outside or make a meaningful impact--it has to be integrated (and share information with) adjacent communities.

Quote"The instructions were to create the infovirus, but I didn't say when and where to release it.... yet..."

None of the instructions --or the deal they create--stipulate someone must wait for further instructions. The obligation of the participant is laid out in full.

QuoteI mean come on, it's reasonable to be concerned that it would be the next step, right?

No. No "next step" is stipulated. The deal is laid out in full.

That is like saying if someone buys a pineapple it's reasonable to be concerned what the "next step" will be. There is no next step stipulated.

QuoteBut you HAVE to know that these shenanigans are at least a little bit eyeroll, I'm sure.

"eyeroll"? The RPG communtiy created a problem. If it gets fixed it it will be the first time this has ever happened and will require a novel solution. so, by definition, it will "look weird" to people who just do whatever is normal.

QuoteThis thread is pretty fun, so was the thread where you made that guy apologize to you and Pundit pinned it.

Which one? There was two.

This invalidates anything you could ever say.

Dr Pepper and the financial consequences of cancellation when I needed dental care---as is extensively documented.

Quote from: BlueWave on December 15, 2024, 07:10:11 PMI repeat again, for emphasis, absolute masterstroke.

Yawn.
You keep quoting a case that Zak won, and insist that it somehow proves that he is a harasser. That's not how it works. There's the court decision that Viv couldn't bear the burden of proof or whatever it's worded legally, so she loses the case. Also there are videos of Viv herself admitting that she lied in those claims that you keep waving around.
Poor unfortunate troll.

I see the reading comprehension of Zaks cultists has not improved (but then again, how could it when you have been paid to push a narrative here). Where did I insist he is a harasser? You made that up.

The court decision pertains to Vivka grey's statements about Zak. The segment mentioned pertains to the statements made by Zak about Vivka. The decision is that they (Zaks statements) are false, but not libellous. So legally speaking, and I repeat myself, he is the only person in this thread who has made false claims.

Even if these videos were 'floating around', they are irrelevant to that point. In this instance the truth of Zaks statements (11 false claims) has no bearing on the truth of Grey's statements (1 false claim out of 8 ). By his own admission, Zak consorted with countless liars before they decided to kick him to the curb. It should come as no surprise that a situation can exist where both parties are dishonest. For example, you yourself are dishonest and are here under false pretence. That does not preclude the possibility that I too might be dishonest.

As a person who is easily manipulated, you should realize that your attempts to do so with normal people come across as clumsy and ineffectual.

You are so 100% incorrect about that. Stating things in an uptight way while everyone else is swearing doesn't suddenly mean they're true.

As I said the last time: if you think I did a single thing wrong, sign an affidavit saying so.

Blast the timing of these brigading allegations - I was about to offer a promotion wherein I offer the entire Buddyscott Entertainment Group corpus for free (normal retail value 0.00$)  and all you had to do was go on various social media platforms and say that you pity Mr S and hope his twisted soul is one day healed.
Well that's not gonna fly now but I'm still in the jolly old Christmas spirit of giving so I'll continue to offer these products for free with no added strings.

I like it that you edited your statement from 'polite' to 'uptight' to squeeze an additional erg of contempt from your sentence. So fussy.

Stalling. I have stated my conclusion and the evidence I used to reach it. You should of course be given a chance to defend yourself. Either discuss the evidence, discuss the conclusion, provide counter-evidence or refuse to do so and let us draw the neccessary conclusion ourselves. If needed I can post screenshots of the relevant sections of the lawsuit although I have already indicated them.

While you are at it, since it is highly probable we will find out anyway, can you confirm Chtonic Goblin is the Lotfp author Becami Cussack? I infer this from the unmistakable writing style and general histrionics, reminiscent of a mentally ill infant, but it is always possible you have acquired an additional, even more disabled, gimp.

Pundit, has this thread gone on long enough? It just seems to be going quite poorly?

Quote from: Banjo Destructo on December 16, 2024, 11:50:22 AMPundit, has this thread gone on long enough? It just seems to be going quite poorly?

Agreed. We've given this narcissist enough attention.

You are free to ignore the thread, there are many other threads to read and comment on.
Let the thread go as long as it needs to go.

Quote from: Xaxus on December 15, 2024, 04:07:37 PMI don't care if he's a hoboe, people give away free stuff all the time and you have to "like this post and leave a comment" or "recommend it to your friends". Thank Xiombarg people don't go crazy about it, well maybe they will now, I don't know anymore. My point is it's not a spooky conspiracy or even something new.
And people pay thousands of dollars for craziest stuff all the time, at least this is not an NFT or whatever it's called, it's a paper book and you can actually hold it.

I have zero issues with someone asking for likes and comments to get stuff; that's pretty much how Youtube sustains its creators. The only "issue" I have here is that it is ALWAYS something with this clown and he insists on shitposting here because he literally cannot deal with the fact that a lot of people here think he's an absolute moron. He is pathological with his need for validation, not to mention with the incessant sophistry that would make an ambulance chasing lawyer blush. Dare to disagree with faggotboy? Welp, have fun with a million words explaining how 2+2 does not in fact equal 4 because we cannot agree on any values of 2.

I see a human being who has done more good for the rpg industry by creating amazing products for it, winning awards for that, being absolutely shat on by a huge number of people who are apparently motivated by jealousy and by their appeasement to a toxic echo-chamber. Sock-puppets who are repeating the same stale claims which have long ago been debunked with evidence. Those same people ignoring the evidence and continue to shit on him.

He is responsible for his behaviour, you are responsible for yours. The toxicity is self-evident.

Meanwhile, it is Zaks books which are selling for $1000 each and not yours. That is how much value and respect people outside of the toxic hate mob have for him. Earlier on this thread you had people effectively funding the RPG industry at media and promotions level come in here to defend him by explaining that despite the allegations, what Zak was saying is actually true.

The sock puppets continue repeating the same debunked hatred regardless of that. It's not worth repeating the same cycle of the same words if trolls are simply ignoring it.
