So what's all this drama about?


(Posting it here to avoid stinking up the main thread)

WRECK THESE DIRTY DEVS IN COURT SID!!! These guys have had free reign far too long and for you to keep being threatened with lawsuits, with no foundation, means you are doing the right thing. Keep doing what you do Sid!

SidAlpha, you can't focus on topic. The complaint was specifically about accusing the developer of stealing his IP. Had nothing to do with missed deadlines, whether or not game was any good. I got a look into those rheumy milquetoast eyes of yours and it is obvious you have trouble concentrating. Record low levels of testosterone do that to a "man," or whatever they call your species nowadays. You can't seem to bring your attention to bear on the actual subject. Your face looked like a pale salami that had been dragged through a low budget gay porn set. You looked like the kid who was so addicted to Call of Duty he finally had to be institutionalized until he reached legal adulthood and could check himself out. I would bet if you weren't a forum moderator on Reddit you would almost certainly be off splitting the atom somewhere or writing Beethoven's Fifth.

The only post about that on sidalpha reddit ive found is completely inane and baseless. Like some guy is stating he stole the code as if it was a fact or he had to deal anything with sirtech or goldenbaby ltd.
This is outrageous.

I made a private complaint about the post to Reddit, their "forum moderator" goes and makes a public Youtube video about my private complaint? Reddit is without question the elephant graveyard of human genetics.

This guy Ginger Bottlespin decided that part of his duties as forum moderator involve going public with private complaints that almost certainly apply to his forum policies?

If you want to accuse me of criminal plagiarism of source code from Sir-Tech, you need to post the evidence in tandem for that wild baseless accusation or else take it down.

This SidAlpha guy is basically a living museum of endrocinal disruptors. Science should study this guy in a lab to find out exactly what is going wrong in generation Soya.

Too bad I don't have a youtube account to get in on the fun. The guy's already running scared. Calling Cleve's idea for a face to face meeting to discuss the issue in person a threat of violence, and Cleve's insults libel. Meanwhile, he makes a video where he shows a screenshot of him telling the mod to do nothing when it comes to deleting a libelous post that says he stole intellectual property from his former employer and also says Grimoire was riddled with bugs. I know it had a few but it wasn't riddled with a ton of bugs like some modern games have been. If this guy somehow had the balls to get physical with Cleve, I'm sure Cleve wouldn't run to the police or his lawyer, he'd just defend himself and hopefully leave the guy soaking in a pool of his own blood.

I wrote this guy very politely the first dozen times reprinting his own forum policy to ask him how he could leave this comment up on the forum when if it alleged that Grimoire was stolen IP/code.

That's ALL this was ever about. There are hundred of winners on Reddit saying bad things about Grimoire, so what.

This was just about that very unfounded accusation. I never mentioned anything about anything else BUT this.

Millennials are stupid. Seriously. They're morons. This queen turns it into a crusade for justice against "dirty developers" and somehow claims this is about missed release dates and all this gibberish. NONE of that had to do with my PRIVATE complaint to him. According to this guy, I'm another developer attacking Reddit because something said something bad about my game.

My complaint had NOTHING to do with any of this.

I don't need these dramas, honestly. But cucks gonna cuck and NPCs gonna NPC.

Cleve's gonna Cleve.

Same old boring tactics.

TELL ME YOUR REAL NAME!
GIVE ME YOUR ADDRESS!
FIGHT ME.
I AM CLEVELAND MARK BLAKEMORE! SEE? THAT IS MY REAL NAME.

Then it devolves into his homo-erotic fantasies about whoever he is talking about.

I don't doubt for one minute he's reusing code in Grimoire from Sirtech, repurposed and obfuscated...sure. He's not going to reinvent the wheel to make his own game.

But it's there, I'm sure.

He made at least a couple comments saying he had no problem meeting up with Cleve in person and said to contact him through the details he posted. Why's he whining about it now? What can he legally do in this situation.

It seems like he's just trying to milk this situation for attention, or maybe views and subs on his Youtube channel, over a controversy he manufactured himself, by making a video about it and telling a moderator not to delete a post that went against their own rules.

some loser on reddit baselessly says cleve stole code from sir tech, cleve privately asks to take it down since it is not true and slander. the guy then makes a youtube video about it and says you have no right to claim it is slander because the game had been delayed for years and you shitposted on the internet..

what?

Cleveland Mark Blakemore you should actually sue this guy, especially since he made a video about it on youtube further defaming you without evidence.

Cleve doesn't have a pot to piss in let alone the money to be chasing down random people on the internet with threats of lawyers and lawsuits. He's all bark and no bite, as they say.

If I were him, I'd probably shut up about it. He's going to piss the wrong person off at some point with his homo-erotic fiction he likes to create about posters he doesn't like...and that person will have the money to hire lawyers and file lawsuits about real defamation. Cleve will be in a world of shit when this happens.
