yup I did get an apology from Paul. There is a difference between being sorry and being sorry you got caught.

Chris Paultoforo @OceanMarteking Close
@cwgabriel I take that apology back. Your the duchiest wwebsite!

the reddit thread keeps on giving. Video of our pal complaining about the noise at his apartment. Apparently threatened a bunch of people over it, claimed he was on a chamber of commerce (when he's not), etc.

He says he's a Realtor in that video... I thought he was the owner of a marketing firm?

Oh it gets better. He's all over every site reporting on it talking shit about them. MUAHAHAHAHAHA.

 

[Duane Cunningham]

Holy shit, he's going nuclear on everyone who mentioned him all day:

https://twitter.com/#!/OceanMarteking

AND CHANGED THE NAME OF HIS TWITTER AGAIN TO OCEAN MARTEKING WHAT THE FUCK THIS HAS TO BE A JOKE I'M CHOKING WITH LAUGHTER

Edit: Okay, fake Twitter. Had me for a minute, wow.

I am rubber you are glue... God this guy has to have slumped into a roid induced idiot phase.

 

[Wario64]

LOL he just came at me on Twitter.

Fake Twitter account?

 

[ElRenoRaven]

We're still taking pre-orders for Avengor. Crying bitches not welcome. -

Oh man.

Fake Twitter account?

Oh damn it is.

 

[itsgreen]

LOL he just came at me on Twitter.

Yeah not him... funny though

Hard to keep them apart since his own account has spelling errors

 

[Sickboy007]

1. NControl dumps that dumbass in the trash
2. Issues a heartfelt apology and refunds mistreated customers
3. Gets in contact with PA for a big contribution to Child's Play, maybe a donation of a stock of controllers to handicapped children
4. ????
5. PROFIT!!!!

 

[la flama blanca]

LOL he just came at me on Twitter.

YEAH BITCH, lmao!

 

[IAmtheFMan]

Good God, this is like the Internet equivalent of the end of Scarface.

 

[Salaadin]

Oh man.



Nope. It's his.

I thought he was @OceanStratagy. The profile pic on @OceanMarteking is all screwed up.

http://twitter.com/#!/oceanstratagy

 

[Shamrock7r]

lol fake. Look at the picture of him more closely.

 

[ElRenoRaven]

I thought he was @OceanStratagy. The profile pic on @OceanMarteking is all screwed up.

Yea. Totally got me. Whoever it was making that bravo.

 

[Flying Toaster]

I thought he was @OceanStratagy. The profile pic on @OceanMarteking is all screwed up.

Given his love of copying others work when will he become OceanSrpay?

 

[DJ88]

Something's wrong here...the suupposedly fake email is written in a decent English, with a decent punctuation, therefore it cannot be him, from all we know it's something out of his reach...

Maybe not as bad as his other emails, but then again, this email just isn't long enough to truly showcase his awful spelling and punctuation. Look again at the fake email from Paul.

Hey Joel,

3rd party agency we were using to help us through the Holidays . I think things are a bit blown out of proportion on this today.

His signature spaces between punctuation couldn't hide. Even "this today" sounds like it should have been "this day".

 

[Rewrite]

OH MY GOD.

Wow. :O :O

 

[kadotsu]

WTF is happening? This can't be real. It has to be Valve's HL3 ARG.

Nah, that last part is right, or at least right enough. "This" refers to the whole incident, not "today".

The telltale punctuation spaces never lie, though.

 

[GlamFM]

I should go to sleep, but I´m having so much fun!

 

[la flama blanca]

Man, thank you, that did it for me as I was leaving for work.

 

[Gary Whitta]

Fake Twitter account?

Yeah it has to be. I AM DISAPPOINT.

 

[ElRenoRaven]

OK now something is up with Amazon. Just refreshed the 360 version's page on amazon to see new reviews. Got this.

Looking for something?
We're sorry. The Web address you entered is not a functioning page on our site

 

[RiggenBlaque]

@OceanMarteking is obviously just a parody account.

 

[The Omega Man]

LOL he just came at me on Twitter.

Is that really him?, the profile pic looks weird, also did he change his website? something looks different there

edit: yeah, seems like a fake account

 

[Parallax Scroll]

Gabe posted this after receiving one of the "apologies" on the PA site. Didn't see it quoted in this thread:

I have a real problem with bullies. I spent my childhood moving from school to school and I got made fun of everyplace I landed. I feel like Paul is a bully and maybe that’s why I have no sympathy here. Someday every bully meets and even bigger bully and maybe that’s me in this case. It’s the same thing that happened with Jack Thompson. It might not always make the most business sense and it is a policy that has caused us some legal problems, but I really don’t give a shit about that. When these assholes threaten me or Penny Arcade I just laugh. I will personally burn everything I’ve made to the fucking ground if I think I can catch them in the flames.

 

[ElRenoRaven]

Gabe posted this about an hour ago on the PA site. Didn't see it quoted in this thread:

And that's just another reason I like him.

 

[SyNapSe]

Unreal. How do you even get a job marketing with that ability to create sentences. He couldn't even be bothered to install a spell checker for replying to business emails.

He must have been a hell of a salesmen during the interview.

 

[Saint Gregory]

This thread just reminded me of something; What ever happened to that Jeff Bell guy from Microsoft? The one who sent that snarky PM to MasterNinja and then resigned shortly after.

 

[Zaraki_Kenpachi]

Is that really him?, the profile pic looks weird, also did he change his website? something looks different there

How funny would it be if he made the account look fake so he could take shots at people with no remorse? It would be a pretty funny twist.

[Volimar]

Good God, this is like the Internet equivalent of the end of Scarface.

I agree. With the crazy way he's acting, I'm worried he might hurt himself, or others. He deserves a lot of what he's getting, but he already seems unhinged, I really don't want his family (if he really has one) to be there when he snaps.

 

[ElRenoRaven]

Seems amazon put up a new page for the 360 version after taking down the old page. It's already being carpet bombed.

New Amazon page for it

 

[Chavelo]

Goddamn, man. That last sentence sent a chill down my spine. D:

 

[Big-ass Ramp]

No such thing as bad press, right guys???

 

[The Omega Man]

How funny would it be if he made the account look fake so he could take shots at people with no remorse? It would be a pretty funny twist.

then he is a formidable adversary, he is adapting and changing according to the situation, and like agent Smith he is just getting stronger

 

[Saint Gregory]

Goddamn, man. That last sentence sent a chill down my spine. D:

It does have a tinge of Keyser Soze in it

This has occurred to me. :/

 

[scy]

And that's the tragedy of this. Some people will have missed the memo on the situation and we'll be left with ashes everywhere again.

 

[Azure Dream]

Something's wrong here...the supposedly fake email is written in a decent English, with a decent punctuation, therefore it cannot be him, from all we know it's something out of his reach...

There actually was a big clue in it, besides the e-mail address.

Hey Joel,

3rd party agency we were using to help us through the Holidays . I think things are a bit blown out of proportion on this today.

Brandon Leidel,
Director of Marketing
brandon@avengercontroller.com

Same punctuation spacing.

 

[Wario64]

That Brandon email, it looks like he's trying really hard to use correct grammar. Really hard

 

[ElRenoRaven]

And that's the tragedy of this. Some people will have missed the memo on the situation and we'll be left with ashes everywhere again.

Well it's only 2 so far. Course god knows how many are waiting to be approved.

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

GOD PLEASE HAVE THE CAMERA'S on at the PA office today SERIOUSLY this could be the best PATV ep yet (and their have been some amazing ones where I have cried because it was soooo good).
Damm I hope really really hope that they are there today dammmmmmmmmmmm.

 

[Acrylic7]

I find this hilarious. All of it.

 

[Justin Bailey]

http://penny-arcade.com/2011/12/26/an-update1



Wow. Srs business.

This one part of the "apology" letter says it all:

Your post has obviously made my life very difficult

No dude. You made your own life difficult by acting like an ass.

 

[Slayven]

I take a nap and funny shit gets awesome.

Damn. Didn't realize Gabe ruled over a Duchy. Very impressive.

 

[Deleted member 10571]

Again, it's a fake account.
