This week there is a lot of drama swirling around the Star Citizen community with a YouTube video that has been copyright struck by the MedRunners. Greasy Khaleesi, the creator of the video, was making an inflammatory video with the title “MedRunners Suck More than Mad Medics and Star Citizen”. It is unclear who caused this copyright strike to happen, as it may have been the MedRunners themselves or someone claiming to be from the MedRunners.
It is not a good look for the Star Citizen Community to be taking actions like this, and Greasy Khaleesi has reached out to have the MedRunners reach out to him so that he can learn more about the situation and see if it can be resolved. Making videos about another organization does sometimes have consequences, and those who have a large platform need to be aware of this. It is also important to remember that there is always going to be a counter-culture to any opinion, so it is important to be prepared for this.
Finally, it is important to remember that there are people behind every organization, and it just takes a bit of the human touch to help resolve any issues. When Montoya went to CitizenCon 2018 and saw a representative on Atlas ADI, they were willing to lend a helping hand and help him out despite taking jabs at each other in the past. This shows that it is possible to put differences aside and lift each other in the Star Citizen community instead of taking each other down.
