Derek Chester did cowrite the script for the game. He wasn't involved in the game design, though and I don't think he and Jones are the same.

Dildo is still keeping contact with me. His emails are so childish, I'm embarassed just reading them! Here's his responses to my last reply:
Dildo Cuntfart wrote:*Yawn* You're keeping count? YAY! You can count to three! You've progressed much farther since we last talked! LOL

You must laugh at yourself a LOT then. ^_^

Jealousy? Why would I be envious of something that's falling flat on bcfiles? ^_^ Did you not see your incredible download numbers/ratings/comments?

LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!! You're going to compare an episode deemed a 'test run' to one of yours? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!! The entire BC community knows for a fact, since day one that this was a test run! HAHAHAHAHA And look! It MATCHES one of your episodes! LOL!!! GREAT COMPARISON!!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!

Too bad when we compare the BEST OF THE BEST your video PALES in comparison. Look at it... None of them are even at the HALFWAY point Episode II was at a week later! And look at the ratings you deem so precious... none of them even have 20 votes (Do I even need to mention the comments? LOL) I took the BEST stats from your various vids (not comparing a single vid on its own merit, but you entire series against Episode II.... and NONE of your video's BEST stats could even come CLOSE to matching it.

I believe this makes YOU the fuckin' loser. ^_^ The stats speak for themselves and once Episode III is out, it will DESTROY your stats on every level. Let's not forget, I could have compared your videos to one of my TRAILERS and destroyed it. lol What a fucking joke.
Again, Dildo is comparing uploads not even a week old to his stuff that has been up for months. This fact doesn't seem to register with him. Here's the Youtube stats:

"The Last Bastion" part 1: 3 stars, 8,250 views
Added September 28, 2006


"Holy Skirmish" - taken off Youtube, most likely due to all the heat he was getting for the racist overtones. His newest response (just up this week in the BC 2 comments section: " Discussions about it on Youtube are not appropriate. I won't say it again. If you have an issue, feel free to PM me or email me." In the BC3 Teaser comment section: It was a test run for the series, but a lot of folks were getting the wrong idea that it was a legitimate episode, so I took it down to avoid confusion. Episode II is the first REAL attempt at the show.")

Yeah, I know. I'll deal with this in a minute...

"The Last Bastion" part 2: 4 stars, 1,852 (before I took it down if favor of a better edit)
Added November 12, 2006

"The Last Bastion" part 2 (Re-edit): 4 stars, 2,882
Added December 05, 2006

"Bridge Commander: Ep II": 1 star, 2,462 views
Added January 22, 2007


Last Bastion 3 Production Update: 3 stars, 1,212 views.
Added January 04, 2007

"Star Trek Bridge Commander Ep III teaser": 1 star, 1,978 views.
Added January 25, 2007

So please, keep talking smack, because I'm bringing it all back to you once your show is humiliated.
Checked with the moderators. More bullshit from Melvin. Of course.
Dildo Cuntfart wrote:Oooooooo!! Hey! You video's stats are matching the stats of a TEST RUN! Aren't you just totally awesome! ^_^ LMAO

LOL! I don't need to say anything else on this matter. Things are panning out now because of the show and the results will speak for themselves soon ... and I will SO enjoy cramming it down you fat flabby throat. ^_^

LMFAO!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! OMFG!!!! You never cease to give me a good laugh DUMBASS!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! LOL!!!!! Good luck with that. Once again you're talking out of your ASS HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Now all I do is hit Shift+H (to spawn all the cameras I need instantly as well as SEVERAL other options) thanks to the BC mod community who have written custom mods for me show. ^_^ You're still using the 'hide ships' command? LOL little bit out of date there aren't we? OOOOOoooo! You thought YOU were being innovative? ROTFLFMAO!!!!

How's that leather taste? Oh wait, I forgot, you enjoy having your toes in your mouth. Well then, ENJOY!!!

HAHAHAHAHAH!!! Still a retard, I see! Well, thanks for taking a break from your 'LIFE' to send me a message fatass.
So...."Holy Skirmish" is suddenly NOT episode 1 of his opus...even though he's named the other two episodes...episode 2 and episode 3.... Boy, you only see that kind of logic in chimps on LSD.

Having followed these events silently for quite a while, it seems to me that Dante has gone and lost the final shreds of sanity he was clinging onto.
He's been reduced to a gibbering baboon drooling over his keyboard, spraying out rants and raves through nuisance emails.
His ever increasing trollish behaviour and lies shows he's an immature brat who wants all the attention.

Yes, I'm stating the obvious. I know.

Why does this guy persist in being such an e-bitch? It's very frustrating!

Do you think he realises that half his hits are SD 'Defenders of the Wayne' that are having a look at his work to see what all the fuss is about?

Reporting him for criminal activity and having his information subpoena would probably get something done, though I'm not sure how you would go about doing that in the US. Here it would be possible to get his info directly from the ISP via court order based on his online identity and then you could whack him.

If someone can get me his MSN/AIM info, I can get his IP/ISP unique tag fairly easily, and you can identity his location and contact the ISP with that.

My god, such stupidity.

Quite a lot of Internet assholes are meek/shy/withdrawn in person. Particularly when it's someone who identifies with a fantasy persona so closely - in real life encounters they can't cling to that to bolster their ego in the same way. As such he may not have the courage to piss people off / act like a total muppet to this extent in real life.

It's worth noting that the three characters he mostly indentifies with, Dante, Neo and Squall Leonhart, are all powerful, emotionally distant loners.
I'd say he dearly wants to be as untouchable as these personas, because his real self is an emotionally unstable twit who craves acknowledgement.

Is there any way to get this buffoon to shut up?

Ignoring him doesn't seem to get you anywhere. Massive retaliation, of a sort, might work.

i.e. make Last Bastion 5 so good it blows his sub-par videos out of the water.

Unlikely to work. After all, The Last Bastion being better than his tripe is was drove him to start this absurd vendetta with renaming his works to "Better than Last Bastion".

Prodding me to do so gave birth to the LB4 teaser which exploded this mess. Do you reaaaly want me to make a similar "teaser" for part 5? :twisted:

Yes :D

Or no. No, it will delay work on part 5. As hilarious as it may be to watch Dante blow his top after a teaser, I think that I'd prefer to watch episode 5 a little bit sooner.

Besides, he'll start screeching anyway how much better his new episode of "Boring Commander" is, so we'll get hilarity either way.

If you do produce another "teaser" be sure to point out how this tard doesn't even understand the concept of division since he clearly doesn't realize that comparing total counts from significantly different lengths of time are not directly comparable.

When you make a Discworld nutjob look sane by comparison, you've got problems.
Does this guy realize
a) how incredibly stupid he looks doing that and
b) the plethora of real-world legal consequences he's setting himself up for?

Don't bother, that was a rethorical question.

I can't believe I stayed and watched the first two minutes but adding the Muslim was so tasteless, I just had to shut it off at that point.
I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

Derek Chester (according to Dante) wrote:Dante,

My name is Derek Chester, and I'm a professional writer. I wrote the storyline for Star Trek: Bridge Commander as well as other games and for the series with Dorothy Fontana. I'm involved in a new project at the moment and saw your film utilizing camera angles within the bridge interface for BC. I would like to discuss with you the possibility of either your participation in this endeavor...or at the very least getting some pointers from you on the techniques you used to capture those angles and to trigger the characters movement and facial animations.

Feel free to e-mail me back if you'd like to talk further. Thank you.

Derek
You know, I never had any problem believing that this contact was legitimate. First, the writing style is far more professional than anything Dante has put out. Second, Derek is clearly just another struggling writer, not Rick Berman. He doesn't have that many credits to his name, and his writing job for the game ended years ago. This isn't to denigrate what he has done, it's just that plenty of writers higher up in the food chain than him have trouble getting what they want to write produced. His seeking out a fan video producer for help or advice in producing his own fan video is not surprising. And we are talking about a fan video, here---writers don't go about seeking production advice on professional projects (others have that job), especially advice about making machinima. Third, if he were searching on "Bridge Commander"---the name of a project he worked on---he would come across Dante's videos, so even his choice of contact makes sense.

In addition, the thread on BC Central shows Dante trying to confirm his email's legitimacy, which he probably wouldn't do if he faked it. Plus the apparent post by Derek doesn't fit with Dante's claims:
Writeall (Derek Chester?) wrote:Actually...I never wrote for Battlestar. If you look closely at my bio...I wrote for DS9 and Lois and Clark, just wanted to clear that up. Also...any source code that was turned over to Activision from TG...would now be in the hands of CBS/Paramount, as they had to turn over all Star Trek related material after losing the license in the lawsuit. And they are known for throwing things out including the entire sound library for TNG forward. But BC was a really fun process...and Tony Evans would be your best bet for remembering anything with Scripting...and he's now at Obsidian. Dave Litwin...I have no idea where he went off to after TG, but he's a good guy. As far at TG goes...theres basically no one left there who worked on BC with the rest of us. So it doesn't surprise me that they don't remember much...but I can say that Dorothy and I are hugely proud of that game and how it turned out. Glad you all enjoy it.
(Ellipses his, emphasis mine.)

Paramount does indeed own Bridge Commander, lock, stock, and barrel. So the Activision email Dante was waving about as giving him permission and :lol: ownership means exactly jack and shit.
Dante Leonhart wrote:I'm glad you guys got in contact with Paramount for me, because I think that's how he found out about it!
Dante seems to have absolutely no notion of Paramount's size. I'm sure Paramount lawyers have water-cooler discussions with writers who worked for a company that worked for another company that worked for Paramount several years ago all the time. :roll:

I really can't be amazed by this. Perhaps people who only post on SDN might be startled by this guys delusions and ranting, but it's par for the course on most of the internet. He's talking himself up and spinning shit so he thinks he's put you down? This is not special - it's not even *unusual*. It's just lame.
