I don't understand.

I can see how they might think they can get away with suing Jim Sterling. They obviously can't, but suing one guy is atleast comprehensible, within the bounds of plausibiltiy.

How the fuck do they think they can get away with suing 100 people and make 18 mill out of this?

They can't possibly think they'll win....what the fuck do they think their going to walk away from this with?

Did you listen to the guy's interview with Jim? He's not all there between the ears. Straight up delusional.

If these hacks put even a fraction of this effort into crafting a single game it would end up being sublime.

I also very nearly sprayed my monitor with tea during the video when Sid Alpha read out the defendants names and in amongst the usual noms de guerre was Karl Pilkington... Doesn't he have anything better to do? :)

making game is hard. making money making good game is harder.

but blaming people and spending time suing them for your commercial failure is easier :)

Wait, you can do that?

See ya in court suckers!

Man, imagine what they could do with 29 Million $
They could buy, like 2,9 Million asset packs and put them all on Steam.

I did. I know he's stupid.

I just have trouble believing anyone's this stupid.

Evidence of the contrary is right in front of my face, I know, but jeez....

they buy the entire unity store and never have to develop games ever again because srubs like them would keep buying assets pack to do assets flips like the did !

never ending, self tail eating, assets flip !

I feel like this deserves it's own thread. People should see this.

Is it disrespectful of me to laugh hysterically at the idea of the judge reading "James Romine vs. JDude330#HaeIsBack"?

"So, Mr. JDude330#HaeIsBack, if that is even your real name, did or didn't your write "LOL XD" on February 12th?"

Digital Homicide subpoena valve for user information in lawsuit |OT| XxJackDaRupperxX in court



"It was 'LUL XD' your honor"
 
Man, the "evidence" in this google doc is fucking hilarious.

(Please don't sue me DH)

I love how page 10 of the main packet is blank. And why is there so much white space after each snapshot? Is each piece supposed to have its own page?

I wonder if the "Digital Homicide's Poop Gaming" group is part of the lawsuit.

I'm stunned.

I quite literally can't believe this.

How does one even go to this level?!

😂😂😂😂😂

And yes, the reasons for the blank space is due to it behind seperate attachments.

I knew they were insane, but these guys are insane.

I hope Jim isn't currently litagated up the arse so hard that he can't currently talk about Digital homicide.

*currently. :)

Easy. Someone is an idiot and thinks bullying people via courts will actually work when he doesn't have a chance in hell.

I think Jim is a lot wiser than these filth merchants and stays silent on the issue while the case against him is still open, not because he *has to but because its the far more sensible option.
 
I don't have time to read all the documentation, but it looks like they've tried to put together a case to sue everyone who's ever talked shit about them?! What a pair of clowns. They have to know that bringing Valve into this will see them ground into dust, and left to pay legal fees in the tens of thousands most likely. As noted, if they put a fraction of this effort into making a decent game they wouldn't have to worry about suing anyone.
 
At this point I just feel bad for the families they claim to have, since they got to deal with all this bullshit they're stirring up while not making shitty games.

He must be a distant relative to Chungus Von Wanksplat.

I was right, I was still giggling, you just made it worse, now its a constant snicker.

However, if I may I'm thinking Wankplatsch sounds more Germanic and has a pleasing onomatopoeia...

Perhaps I shall name our new house such so my future spawn can be "von Wankplatsch" :)

I feel bad. This guy obviously suffers from some sort of mental illness. It honestly breaks my heart just thinking about it.
It seems to be some sort of disorder that is a subset of schizophrenia. If anything we should get this guy help rather than laugh at him.
If I remember he said he has a daughter? I wonder if she inhereted any of these issues.
If this guy cant have any sense of self awareness I can only imagine what his kids n family are going through.

Man, there shenanigans with lawsuits is a hell of a lot more fun than there games. I wonder if people are tempted to fund them to keep this train rolling.
