Shane Edward Nokes / @NorrathReaver / Daddy Cum Cannon - Internet Tough Guy and “Retired Cybersecurity Expert” who worked with the US Secret Service and FBI – In reality, a perpetually unemployed leech on disability benefits who threatens people on the internet all day. Raped with a butterknife.

You know, a wise man once said to me "if everyone misinterprets what you have to say, you just suck at communicating your ideas." Words to live by.


Based fat small-dick manlet. Own your faults and accept what you can't control.
I doubt Shame will ever do that though. Because, much like his with dipshit Internet slapfights, it's not HIS fault people don't get what he's saying. The onus is on others to palate his condescension and narcissistic attitude while simultaneously reading his mind to cut through his argumentative drivel.

I am a based, fat, small dick manlet. And if you said that to me in person, I’d laugh, agree, and buy you a beer. Fuck, people can be such insufferable assholes.

Fortunately it makes for good milk.
 
I’ve noticed that Shame adjusts his bragadocious lies depending on who he’s trying to epically own. Sometimes he’s a respected game industry veteran, sometimes he’s a owner of a multi-national retail empire, and sometimes he’s a known quantity whose reports carry more weight.

Imagine arguing about consoles in your 40s. He really is a throwback. Also “Japan Hates XBox”, lol.
"You're just an asshole in real life that no one gives a fuck about and this is all you have in life."

See, here, the insult cuts to the bone because Shane is an expert on this.
 
I was curious how the lives of Shane's coworkers panned out from testing Fable II. So I did some quick googling and found most of them on various social media sites. I'm removing their last names so they don't end up in Kiwi Farms Google results.

Of that "block" of credits his name appears in, here is how his peers are doing:

Ann R (Volt) May have gone into cyber security with the military. The only hits for her name were related to a security program with the military. Linkedin and FB profiles were completely empty or scrubbed.

Sandra R (Volt) - genuinely retired! MS was her last job and she had a long QA history leading up to it, testing games since 1997. Appears to be in her late 50s /60s now judging by her Facebook photos.

Amanda S (Excell) MobyGames shows her as having a lengthy testing career as well, with credits from 2008 to 2012 credited at Volt.

Kris S (Volt) Credited on five high-profile games at Microsoft on MobyGames.

Jared S (Volt) Has worked at Microsoft Game Studios for the past 13 years, now a test engineer III.

Darren W (Excell) Lengthy QA career and moved into actual engineering for non-game companies. Now a senior QA.

Matt W(Excell) Appears to be a senior producer at Amazon Games now.

Thomas W (Excell) Unable to find.

Soren L (Volt) Climbed up to test lead as an actual MS employee, then left to get into film. He's now a visual effects supervisor.

Robert G (Volt) No online presence.

Vernon R (Excell) Had a much lengthier career at Microsoft, presumably still working there through a contract company.

Kevin G (Excell) Worked his way up from a four-year consulting stint with VMC to be a senior business program manager in a 17-year career.

Chris A (Excell) Unable to find.

Steven D (Excell) Unable to find.

Sam A (Excell) Worked his way up from QA to being a AAA game project manager on titles like Saints Row and Final Fantasy.

Jonathan B (Volt) In 2010 he became a legal intern at the US DoJ in Washinton. He is now Senior Counsel.

Leif C (Volt) Moved up. In 2012 was a balding twink designer for Guild Wars, then eventually trooned out and changed their name to "Lena". Still involved in the industry.

Jake F (Excell) Worked in the peace corps and as a teacher.

Jared F (Excell) Unable to find.

Matt H (Excell) Lengthy stint of about a decade of gigs at Microsoft and now working in some kind of IT capacity.

Aaron H(Volt) MS was his very first job, and he moved on to working as a live stream tech and now video support at Amazon.

Daniel M (Excell) Moved up to an actual QA position at Microsoft where he spent THIRTEEN YEARS. Now at Meta testing VR stuff.

Shane Nokes (Volt) Fat and I would not have sex with him.

Melike O (Excell) Couldn't find a match online.

Kyle WM (Excell) Ended up doing lots of warehouse and maintenance jobs, but he's still working and his stints were lengthy so he was probably a good worker. Still doing better than Shane.

Conclusion: Shane is objectively the biggest loser in the sampling of people I was able to find.

Shane claims to be a “respected veteran of the gaming industry” to own trolls. I guess he was fantasizing about being literally anyone else he QA tested Fable 2 with. Funny, you’d think being in the Industry he’d have more than 0 engagement. Really makes you think.

Shame is like the weird guy you went to high school with, and you find out 14 years later he’s a schizophrenic homeless person living under the highway.

Any "respected veteran of the gaming industry" would have obvious evidence of such online. They'd have written articles for publications, had panels at the Game Developers Conference, and credits on actual games. Moby Games doesn't turn up anything for him. Even though it's not definitive, most of his peers had multiple credits on there. His entire online footprint was created by himself and just consists of him trying to convince everyone of his importance. You shouldn't NEED TO TELL PEOPLE YOU ARE IMPORTANT. IT SHOULD BE EVIDENT.

Edited to add: of the 94 game testers on Fable II that are shown in the credits, Shane is in the next-to-last group. The first group does not have a contract company name next to them, so they may be the real Microsoft employee team that was first to work on the game. Subsequent clusters are in alphabetical order. This makes me think that he was one of the last people to be put on the project and so probably had the least influence on its quality.

Come on, stop poking fun.
You can't talk Microsoft, and especially not Fable II, without talking Nokes.

I'm getting pretty fed-up with people down-talking visionaries from Team Joker, on the Metal Gear Solid side.

It's not fair to compare all these people's careers with Shame's... Shame outdid them all, by spending two years leading a global retail empire!

Microsoft was forced to close almost all their stores after Shane retired, presumably to go undercover working on the secret service's crackdown of xbox live cheaters.

Can we please just show shame the respect he deserves?

Shane is a standup guy allowing nobodies like Peter Molyneux to share their names in the credits of a game that he singlehandedly designed and programmed. Shnokes was to Fable II what Terry Davis was to TempleOS, yet he generously allowed all of those people to draw a paycheck for his brainchild and the sweat of his brow.

And by "standup guy" I mean that he says hilarious things and I laugh extremely hard at them.

Unless it was the hit reality show, in which case he was obviously the least Biggest Loser and got voted off of lardbutt island or whatever (I didn't actually see the show).

Shame's stint as MS Retail Product Advisor (a.k.a. Chief Operating Officer) coincides perfectly with the company's darkest days since the '08 crisis.
 
Based on how quickly, and often he responds to us mocking him, I can only conclude that being discovered by the farms is the best thing to happen to Shame in decades. Non-ironically. Go back 3-4 weeks, back to before he got discovered by the brothermen and us and his twitter engagement was non-existant. I mean it still is, but at least now he can check the forums and see that there are some people who are aware he exists, even all we do is mock him.

He's literally spent decades screaming into the void begging to be noticed by someone, anyone. He's been doing and saying anything he can just to get a little bit of a human connection and this is the closest he's ever come. That's actually kinda......

Funny. It's damned funny is what it is. This fat faggot is so fucking unlikable, retarded, and downright repulsive that the only people who would be sad if he died is us, and thats only cause we wouldn't have anything to laugh at.
 
Good Morning Shane, you pathetic waste of sperm and an egg. How does it feel knowing that the ONLY people who give a fuck if you live or die are your alogs? How does it feel knowing the only people who read your tweets, or pay any attention whatsoever to your thoughts only do so in order to mock you?

Lets face it, we know, from how much time you spend on twitter desperately trying to get a crumb of attention that even your GF doesn't care what you think. If she did, you wouldn't need to waste so much of your finite time on earth tweeting to no one.

WE are the ONLY people on earth that pay any attention to you shane, and we think you're a fucking retard. How does it feel to know omly scorn, mockery, and derision?


BTW, day 14 of us sour strawberries waiting for the knock. Two full weeks since we "got on your radar" porkins. Two full weeks and none of us has even been inconvienced, much less destroyed. In point of fact, the only thing you've accomplished in the last two weeks is entertaining us, by being even more retarded than we ever could have hoped you would be.
