Finally got around to reading the long posts here. I think a lot of my thoughts were validated, which I have voiced quite constantly and sometimes received flak for.
I still believe Vickers' goal in all this is to make Ethan's life as miserable and annoying as he humanly can. He doesn't care about spending over $50,000 if this means he can drain another $20,000 from Ethan and he doesn't give a fuck what any of us thinks about him, good or bad, or indifference. He's willing to wash in a pond of mud with the rage pig, for our entertainment but also to Ethan's detriment. The tactic of FOIAing all the orders as a private citizen so he can gloat on stream was beyond nasty to me, it's actually kind of scary that he's willing to go so far. He's doing everything that is just about legal but morally questionable (bankrupt in my opinion) and psychotic as fuck. Essentially, I don't think anyone would want to be on bad terms with such an inlaw.
He's a pretty good contrast to Harry. Harry tweets like a dumbass with grade school spelling and methods of your COD troll, but it's funny to watch. Vickers tweets like some nasty villain on a crusade because his daughter was hurt, gloats and acts smug all the time, his demeanor is annoying and faggoty, but he's far more effective and financially well off. You can state the numerous big and small Ls he's taken but one cannot deny he actually chased an America First White Nationalist to some Mexican brutalist hellscape patrolled by rabid dingos with water and electricity rationing. If those two freaks work together, it'll be an absolute shitshow and some kind of dumbass reality tv plot.
The Gator stuff is simply great. Again, it could have been avoided if Ethan Ralph shut his poop licker. That's what he gets for doxing someone over a shook pill bottle.
Actually, I guess that's why he chose to display those totally legit anal leaks of his own during Servomania? He was trying to discredit the trooncord logs provided by Christopher Brian Holloman (Shannon Gains) by asserting that Gator was... already working with Matthew Vickers? So the logs cannot be used or what??? Was that his logic? I still don't understand how it's supposed to work because it was simply a message through a third party which fell flat because Gator showed the Sisco messages which were more damning.
Here's an L that no one seemed to catch though. Remember Vickers gloating about getting Gator mopped from Twitter? I'm pretty sure there's lots of spicy messages between him and Ethan Ralph that's now gone due to Vicky's faggot content-denying behaviour. He's not gonna live this one down, until Gator gets his Twitter back of course. There's probably lots of funny shit enclosed.
