People News Chris Avellone grows a pair and fights back against being cancelled

[Saark]

lead him to make bad choices like texting an adult film actress at 3am and failing miserably at flirting like a 13 year old on ICQ.

It is the latter that is a bit disappointing. But sexting/booty call setups tend to be lower and lower effort the later it gets. If some chick messages you at 3am about her shitty date, 99/100 times there's only one reason for it. That late at night you usually won't need more than 5 words to get her to come over, or get her to agree that you come over. The time for subtlety and charm are over when you know youre flirting with a slut who also happens to like to be treated/spoken to like one.

I dont know what kind of repressed lives people live, that they think that sext or attempt at sexting was anything but normal for a guy in his position. The only sad part, is that I would expect someone with the writing skills of MCA to be a bit more.... poetic about it. But then again, that line would've worked with most of the chicks you find on online dating sites, let alone someone whose clearly just trying to get laid.

I mostly agree, but wasn't she on the other side of the USA? She used to be in NYC, and he's in CA, SD - San Diego?

I am sure there are some chads who with but a few words can make a slut hop on a plane at once and take a flight just to land on their dicks, but MCA is clearly not one of them.

People online, in particular people working long hours or those who move around a lot, like movie stars, tend to do a lot of their sexual release online though. That's why there's so many lewd pics of travelling celebs like actors. When you've just finished with another 14hr workday or done your 60hr week and finally have some spare time on the weekend, all the preparation that goes into actually going out and having a decent chance at hitting it off with someone just isn't worth the effort half the time. Better to go with the safe thing that you know is gonna make you enjoy yourself at least.

Whether its camming or sexting, its the only way for them to feel connected, and especially online with random twitter whores/chads theres no relationship crap getitng in the way of it either. It's also much harder to do the stuff you mentioned when you're literally on a date, although I wouldn't put it past some of these twitter "women" that theyd just look for Chad Thundercock while their date is busy paying their check.

It's weird that people are not talking more about what happened to game (and software!) industry. It used to be full of brilliant developers, but now it's run by stonk investors and the developers are just some random people hired for whatever reason. It's not for game development skills, that one is sure. The only reason this show is still running is that each new generation don't know what a good game is when they are young, they play anything that looks like a game.

I am calling bullshit on this one.

1) If you claim that "each new generation don't know what a good game is when they are young, they play anything that looks like a game", then the exactly same argument would apply to the past.

2) Now, was the gaming industry of the past "full of brilliant developers" or did bad games die and most of the good stuff is remembered, because back in the day there was limited reachability and the gaming magazines had to do a sharp selection of titles?

3) Perhaps your perception is skewed, because today many games can see the light of day, so the ratio of bad-to-good games is reversed, but it doesn't mean there are no good games coming out. You simply have to learn where to look and how to do the selection yourself (because you can't count of gaming journalists to make a good selection for yourself).

It is a repetition that always occurs. Something starts small, there is a lot of passion and some good ideas. Good ideas turn into great ideas. Then they smell the money.

Suddenly everything must be expanded. You need structures. There are not enough people. So they hire new people from where they can get them. People who've made their career in making good things shitty (*cough* Oracle).

 

[Krice]

then the exactly same argument would apply to the past.

It does, that's why it's so true. However, before game industry became really large it was practically invented from nothing by smart people who had to work against limited tech etc. Back then you had to be actually good to create games. These days most of game development is "design" and there are like couple of guys who put it together, mostly using existing engines anyway. This makes it possible to almost anyone to be a game "designer" or "writer" without any real skills or creativity which we certainly see in modern games.

To return to the subject, I think we need some kind of rules for "chess club" developers like Avellone. Stay away from SJW women and get a vietnamese or ukrainian wife and marry her like a gentleman.

This is half-true. Yes, there are big companies who push out uninspired crap and small developers who push out literal shovelware and vaporware, but there are also examples of creators who can work around technical limitations, lack of big money and small staff and create something interesting and unique. Like I said before - such people aren't all gone, they are just less noticeable due to the flood of less noteworthy games. At this point it comes down to being able to separate the wheat from the chaff.

I will bite. What makes Avellone specifically a prestigious figure, one that's worth emulating?

Does anyone have a link to the lawsuit petition?

If I can confirm the court and/or locality MCA filed in, we may be able to get copies. At least in my state, the Court filings are open to the public, however, you have to pay for copies.

Some dude posted this earlier
https://unicourt.com/case/ca-la23-c...vs-karissa-an-individual-barrows-et-al-702893

There`s a bunch of documents that have been added to this in the past few days(everything past the 6/16 docs)

Did the guy who paid money for these docs say what they are?

 

[Maculo]

(c) A correction published or broadcast in substantially as conspicuous a manner in the daily or weekly news publication, or on the broadcasting station as the statements claimed in the complaint to be libelous, before receipt of a demand for correction, shall be of the same force and effect as though the correction had been published or broadcast within three weeks after a demand for correction.


(d) As used in this section, the following definitions shall apply:

(1) “General damages” means damages for loss of reputation, shame, mortification, and hurt feelings.

https://codes.findlaw.com/ca/civil-code/civ-sect-48a.html


Oh ok, this makes sense now.

EDIT: If terms like “hurt feelings” is showing up specifically in the CA code regarding libel, it kind of shows how quirky this state is. It almost kind of makes most of what non CA lawyers say irrelevant if there are small details like this being missed here.

More than just irrelevant, it’s a plain bad idea.

Beyond those small statutory details, there are also differences in application of a statute (State Supreme Court weighs in and sets a precedent) or public policy towards interpretation of ambiguities (textualists vs. legislative intent). Yet another layer is the local judges and jury pool, which an out of state attorney generally wouldn’t know.

The risk of making a misleading or inaccurate statement exceeds the benefit, but then again this is Twitter.

When I have a free moment, I will check again. there were four documents last I checked, such as a filing worksheet and summons. Maybe we will see the official response!

edit: guys, help me come up with an excuse to use on my wife, while I find these documents.

I think he had to pay for each one, so let it be.

 

[Maculo]

I just had to pay for the pages I downloaded. I did see the titles to the other documents though (summons, etc.).

Edit: There have been some updates on Unicourt, although no responsive filings from the defendants….yet. Both defendants are still shown as unrepresented.

A hearing has been set for 9/28/21. Otherwise, there was a Minute Order and a challenge to judicial officer. Since I am on my phone, I cannot properly download to view.

Easy. Avellone got you drunk and you lost all of your free will.

By God I've been away from this cuckatorium too long. The extent to which this thread was pornjacked by fapping penguins was a goddammed indictment. I've seen some sad, degenerate pornography in my time, but both the images of this 'James deen' porn, and the extent to which there is knowledge of his 'career' is beyond tragic. Is this what what decline has brought - sad, fluoro lit, completely un-titillating clinical fornication of the lowest order, becoming so well known it's standard issue?

I thought it was mostly laughter at how a porn failure could raise the bar for Riot. Even from the collage stills you can tell that was some of the most boring, basic cam shit, that I was surprised it wasn't taken with a GoPro. If they had dressed up as zombies it might have been an improvement and explained much. The best description of that was "And that is how NPCs fuck."

Production efforts in the 90s was great, but now seen to have really gone to shit in much the same way as the game industry's churn, so that it seems like the set was rented on a $20 microtransaction (social media whore included!)

He's a dude, only women are allowed to use that excuse apparently.

Indeed.

I think most of us were only interested in said porn for the lulz factor, and showing the utter hypocrisy of one of the people bitching about Chris. It isn't exactly anything high class.

Besides it wasn't a Codexer who recognised her at first, I merely passed on information received. I sadly don't have a photographic memory for porn actresses.

And I'd do it again.

I'll probably get cancelled now.

He's been married for years and it should be noted that everything Chris has been accused of doing happened years before the marriage. That he got married and stopped pestering other women with his drunken behavior did not matter.

Good luck in Clownworld, before your purple haired judge who surreptitiously licks her nose bolt between cases.

I posted the judge's info earlier in the thread, he's not a prog activist. The hard part (after the iffy part of beating an anti-slapp) will be convincing a jury, since he requested a jury trial.

And if you weren't red-pilled before, by gosh I trust you are now.

Going by the medium posts, nope.

I'm not from kwanzania, but doesn't it mean that in order to win, he will have to convice every single one of them that Karissa was unquestionably malicious, random hoes included ?
If yes, then like what the fuck is wrong with him, how out of touch with reality you can be ?
