AS REQUESTED: I was a booth babe at E3 last year and met Paul Cristoforo. He gave me an Avengers Controller and added me on Facebook later. We recently had an interesting conversation...(EDIT: Had to block out my name)

BREAKING: Paul Christoforo is still an obnoxious douchebag. Video at 11.

Congratulations! I now have a new found respect for booth babes. No really how do you put up with such egotistical pricks.

I have been stalking Paul for a couple of weeks now. He drives too fast sometimes but is always considerate for pedestrians. I like it when he is sleeping. He looks so peaceful.

I hope you've alerted PAX about this?

His messages are a weird mix of being a pompous ass and ADHD/irrelevant details (like the "ill watch smallville" part at the end). He also doesn't seem to get (from the length of his messages vs yours) that you're not really that into talking to him.

I feel like if I could just say one thing to him, it would be this.

hehe he sold 250,000 in controllers in december...impressive

but wasnt the problem about delivery of said controllers?

SaintGenesius · 3 months

Can someone explain what the holy fuck is going on here? I don't understand a single thing he's said in any of this correspondence.

Maybe it's because it's 3 am, maybe I'm a complete retard, but either way a TL;DR or better yet a backstory would be nice.

First question: who the hell is Paul Cristoforo?

This prick is so arrogant I bet he jacks off to his own reflection.

AverageToaster · 3 months

Have you talked to the people running the penny arcade guys about this? They would love to hear about this.

rupertbollinger · 3 months

he seems a lord among douches.

It's sort of interesting how an ego of that size can turn off the "Other people might quite possibly be smarter than me" notion in somebody's brain.

leebenningfield · 3 months

This guy needs to be medicated and/or institutionalized. He has serious issues. Although it's hard to feel bad for him when he keeps digging a deeper hole for himself at every available opportunity.

How is he still saying that he's "still going to pax"? After PAX East, doesn't he realize that everyone knows everything he says is an empty threat?

I can't tell if op is genuinely a redditor and helping us watch out for him, an attention/karma whore (basically a redditor, but she blocked her face so prob not, or really just a gaming girl part of r/gaming.

CaptainWOW3 · 3 months

well. see yah guys later. im going to watch smallville

I love it when people try to stay relevant. Also, I would not let that man into E3, he'd get grease on the new games.

Turns out his website is hosted by GoDaddy, the big supporter of SOPA/PIPA.

That, and his company's website has a link to the company's twitter account which is obviously not under the company's control.

So, first, he has poor communication with a customer. That involves insults, lies, and accusations. Second, he's doing business with a company that wanted the internet destroyed as we know it. Finally, he cannot update his own website to have the proper links.

His company is about online marketing and networking. First, he doesn't seem to know how to do that, he can't keep his website in order, and he's affliated with a company, that's a support of a bill that had vague terminology which would make user-interfaced websites be a large target (ie social networking websites, kind of contradictory to his benefit).

Paul's actual twitter account

https://www.facebook.com/OceanMarketing - facebook page also claims he went to PAX east.

Would like to know how many employees he has, and who exactly are his clients. Most marketing firms put their clients out on a list, which, you know, helps advertizes them. Though, he's probably not doing that in order to protect the interests of his client. Though, if his client cannot deal with the scrutiny, they probably shouldn't be doing business with him.

This guy is a self-centered cunt. Anytime I read anything he's said I want to tear my eyes out.

And the follow up...

Best part: him saying VvV instead of vVv.

i refuse to believe that this twat has the intelligence to operate a business with an international supply chain. Something tells me he's a silver spoon baby who has been given EVERYTHING in life. I literally believe that mommy and daddy are responsible for this mans position in life.

bl33t · 3 months

as funny as it is, you don't think it's kind of a dick move to be putting a private conversation out on the internet for all to see?

Chrono68 · 3 months

Wow what a jackass. He talked about himself the entire time.

Nechronic420 · 3 months

I feel bad for him, because he's trying to talk about his kid, but you're like, no let's not talk about your kid.

[deleted] · 3 months

Privacy: Meaningless to you (besides your own name of course which makes you look like a sad hypocrite.)

Truly amazes how sick some people are just to get a little bit of attention.

hotpeppersauce · 3 months

Without causing offence, he sounds kinda 'slow' the way he's responding to questions...

DoomGuardian · 3 months

Why do you keep saying I see

retroxity · 3 months

I know the guy seems like a jerk but I just find a small lack in class for posting a private conversation like this.

ubelblatt · 3 months

I really don't understand the point of this. From the messages you seem to be at least polite towards him and then you post your conversation to reddit making fun of the guy? To what end? The guy made a bad decision and was a real dick but you certainly can't say he hasn't paid for it.

The guy isn't evil he is just a dick. This feels like the equivalent of a middle schooler pretending they like someone just to make fun of them later. It really paints you in a bad light and makes you look like a mean person. If you don't like him then just decline his friend request - what does this accomplish?

CosmicBard · 3 months

Anybody with me on blackfaxing and pizzaing his game store to death?

cygonsilent · 3 months

this is dumb, the guy is an idiot but do we need to resort to conspiring against him and for what reason, leave this fucking douche alone. this is what you look like to me"we should crucify him some more because he is a bad person and doing and saying mean things to him is OK" TLDR-Fuck him and Fuck You

CatOfCattington · 3 months

Excuse me Mrs. Darling, I bought myself and all my cats passes to E3 before I knew that I wasn't allowed to bring them in. Could you help me smuggle them in, please? There's only about 20 or so, all fluffy and stuff, and I told them that Sir. GabeN is announcing Half Life 3, lol dum cats.

Let me know what you think. It better be yes, too, because Paul gave me all your personal info, haha!
