Even after being exposed as a lying sack of shit fraud with a bought and paid for PHD, he continues to sign his name with the worthless tag! Then he has the gumption to say he doesn't even care about the damn thing! Not too long ago we were treated to his threats against Bill Huffman and Louis; Derek posted a long thread here telling us all how Bill was 'finished' and he would be 'buried' when Derek and his team of lawyers and the California DA was done with him. Bill continues to make Derek look like a small, worthless dick, and Derek is absolutely POWERLESS to do anything about it. That is what rankles Derek so much - his inability to win the respect of anyone save a few sorry souls who continue to call him 'the supreme Kommander'. Even after being handed his asshole in a bag by Derek Sorenson regarding his bogus 'texture' maps of Pluto and his 'solid' planetary surfaces of Jupiter, and his claims of owning a nice piece of Martian Metal, Derek still sticks his head up so more shit can attach itself to his vulcan pocked face Now this braggart loser has the balls to say Looking Glass should be out of business? Hey Derek, it is *YOU* who should be out of business! After wasting millions of dollars on your utter failure of a game in 1996, you then poached your mothers cashbox to enable you to stay afloat! We all know how that ended - with your publicly humiliating bankruptcy, which was posted for all the world to see by Louis JM. So Derek, dear, it is you who is the loser that has no business being in the computer gaming industry. Maybe after you get a critically acclaimed title on the shelves you will be listened to when you say Looking Glass should fold. Derek, you should stick to what you know - taking money from your parents, baseless threats against teenagers, humiliation at the hands of Huffman, academic fraud, and embarrassing bankruptcy proceedings. Leave the business of developing games to the pros. MB Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.
