What makes you think I wasn't referring to post #2041 at the top of this page, you fucking clown?

You mean the one were I explained in brief why I reacted to the gif the way I did, failed to make positive comments about it to balance the negative ones, and used that foreign word most people here don't recognize: "Sorry."

This is the post that appears as #2041 for me, at the top of this page. I just checked in a browser that I wasn't logged in with and that post is #2036 and on the last page...

I guess the post numbers are arbitrary based on whether your forum permissions allow you to see deleted posts or not.

Okay.
Sorry.
I wanted to delete that, but couldn't, so I was being a "fucking clown".
It was a cheap jab at the comments on discord.
You're right.
Sorry.
I did chill after that though.
Sorry.

Sorry.

Don't feel bad, Forge. I have no military background, just shoot shit in the backyard all the time. It bugs me too. I doubt more than one or two members of Voidpoint have ever actually even held a gun in their life, which is why something "glaringly obvious" like this could slip through.

OK, I have some good news and some bad news.

The good news is that we've come up with a solution to the shell casing problem.

The bad news is that the solution is banned in California.

Chill out.

They also make these things in the physical world called brass deflectors that clip over ejection ports and make casings fall straight down.
Used them on M16 & M16A1s for lefties.

[necroslut]

Eh, ejectring brass into the face of the shooter is an "old-school FPS" staple. If it went any other direction you wouldn't see it in as much detail.

About the 3D Realms forums - Yes we're not paying too much attention to it, as 90% of all communication with our community happens through Discord these days.
Joe is occasionally checking up on the Forums, but I've not been good at keeping up with the topics. Something I definitely need to improve upon.

~50% of IM is yurotrash, yours truly included

I don't understand what happened. Hank moved and he can't change the shipping address or something?

For around two months Hank and some other customers have been posting on the 3dr forum & (allegedly) sending them emails to inform them of a change of address - because they ordered the Ion Maiden Big Box.
They received no response.

https://boards.3drea...iden-order/1050


Hank posts here @ Duke4. Finally somebody @ 3dr responds.
I can only assume that once again, someone from Voidpoint had to go tell 3dr to wake up.

https://forums.duke4...post__p__309278



Then Fred gets butthurt after one of his customers made an abrasive comment because they didn't like being ignored.

https://boards.3drea...big-box/1130/10

The end.

no, no
you're doing it wrong.
Duke4 has a forum and an email/message service, but you can't use those to contact anyone. Those get ignored.
You must install a third-party platform and try to subscribe to an off-site messenger server.

Collated and in triplicate please.

To be fair, 3D Realms acknowledged this and a couple of days ago announced there is a new employee taking care of customer support.

Okay.
Fred acknowledged a month ago that the 3dr site forums and communication channels were being ignored & that it needed to be 'improved upon'.
(longer if you go back to the issue with not telling their customer base that one of their employees was sick & couldn't post updates).
It's not a "new" problem.

They basically sat on their thumb until it became a problem.
Seems fair.

Running a company that is set up to take a customer's money, but has no customer service is NOT a good business model. Unless you're a drug dealer.
Keep slapping lipstick on that pig if it makes you comfortable.

I find it a little pathetic that Voidpoint has to keep picking up their slack while simultaneously maintaining a good working relation with them, and then keeping their fanbase appeased with, "we talked to them", "it's been taken care of", "we did it for you", etc., etc..

[OpenMaw]

Well. That's something.

Shoulda brought popcorn, I didn't realize there was gonna be a show!

Hey, Hank if you don't want your big box anymore, i'll take it!
