Derek Smart - recent thread about him, anyone know where it is?

[Instant Mix]

I remember there being some headline or something about Derek Smart, and how he'd either tried to piss of the Star Citizen dev team or caused some other trouble. There was quite a lot of discussion in the thread about him and what he'd done. Can't find the thread using Google, so hopefully someone remembers this. Trying to send it to someone who's read stuff from their website and thus only has his perspective on Star Citizen

Please forgive me for what I'm about to do.

You may be thinking of this thread, where he was brought up during discussion of Crytek's lawsuit against CIG: Crytek sues Star Citizen studio over breach of contract and copy..

There is also this thread from several years back: Why has Derek Smart picked a fight with Star Citizen?
And this: https://forum.facepunch.com/f/videos/bquhi/Line-of-Defense-is-about-as-awful-as-it-could-be-with-Derek-Smart-in-charge-English-subs/1/
And this old thread: Derek Smart is refusing to take his refunded $250 Star Citizen p..
And this one: https://forum.facepunch.com/f/pd/baehh/Derek-Smart-Star-Citizen-as-pitched-will-never-get-made/1/

Just as a point of interest, Smart has been permabanned from SA, and both shadowbanned and permabanned from Reddit, all three instances due to doxxing.

That's the one I remember, the discussion in the suing thread. Cheers for managing to dig that back up, have some coin.
