    Im cautiously interested in both of those. I got a Landmark package for free months ago and play it a bit but got bored with the testing around with it before water came in and haven't loaded it since. Since I've a lifetime station thing too, Im hoping that I'll be able to get some sort of...

    Yeah they call it a "selective multiplayer game". I can't help but feel that has to do with some sort of design constraints they realized early on over it being an intended design, but I dont know for sure. Im not closely following it, atm.

    I agree that SotA is pretty much the best "old school" option on the table at the moment, but I highly doubt, especially after all this, that Garriot would let Brad any where near his game.

    I know you understood it as being my asking you to refute the statements. We both can agree that you're smart in that regard. But I do agree it is/was derailing to have jumped from the discussion about Brad onto word choices because you dont feel it fits here(discourse community norms). I get that.

    Yes because 2 houses, multiple sports cars and riding around on a 7k+ bike right smack dab at the time frame you declare the project on hold because there is no more money (because you took 45k) reflects such a sound and sane way to handle your start up and ask people to give you more...

    His desperation is part of how this was groomed into being a scam. Passing off unity assets lego'd together and making a video of to show as your own work for the purpose of asking people to give you money is dishonestly fraudulent. Making a story that you've taken money from the project...

    That's tricky on one hand.

On another hand the inception of the...

    So glad you brought this up(could say I led you into asking about it, hehe). Company was incorporated. Private or public doesn't matter in that regard. If a sole proprietor issues a bunch of checks on his business account to cash, there is no embezzlement there no matter what he does with...

    Let's look then at a few explanations of such misappropriation: Embezzlement involves taking property that you already possess, but do not own. With embezzlement, a person who is entrusted to manage or control someone else's property(or that of a corporate entity) uses that property...

    The reason for taking the money as I pointed out a few pages back isn't relevant either. Misappropriation isnt mitigated by "well I wanted to pay off my property taxes on my houses" :P.

    Interestingly put. There may be no way to prevent his taking it for such(and I would laugh if he actually did), but there are certainly avenues of ways he, and those who continue to help him perpetuate the fraud for such purposes, can be held accountable there after.

    Your point has seemingly floated more than once from the emphasis on the KS to now this, which is fine, though a bit confusing. Supposedly, Brad incorporated the company at the start of April. Website pledges to it thus would not face taxation, by my understanding, until the next tax year...

    Just a point of clarification: No one is going to pay taxes on Pantheon's KS(except for nominal listing fees which could be business expenditure written off I assume). It failed to fund so all pledges reverted back to the pledger as per KS's system. Donations were essentially paypal/private...

    1. Not when he admits it went to him, multiple times. 2. Not when the paypal being used for a time(or still may be) was in his name. I brought a point up with one of the former devs when they were responding to folks about the whole fiasco a couple of months ago that if Brad took the money...

    If work isn't satisfactory, you cut them lose but you honor the contract by law unless otherwise ameliorated in a clause of the contract work. You dont use that to stupidly justify misappropriating over tens of thousands of dollars either. It is also a stretch to declare "mediocre results"...

    Few things one can think regarding that. Given Brad's lies to this point, it isnt a stretch to imagine the numbers could be false. Also he may be adding the monthly subscription folks each month for that. But all in all its a laughable. Both for the small amount that it is and sadly that...
