This reminds me of the time I said I disliked Yahtzee, Something Awful and trolls. The ultimate combination has finally arrived, who will ever stop it?
SA is made of trolls, it is in legion with EncyclopediaDramatica, 4chan, 12chan, all the bloody chans, and ebaumsworld so trusting it and taking it seriously isn't entirely advised on my part.

What?!
Something Awful MOCKED someone?!
ON MY INTERNETS?!?!
...seriously, I think there's just a bunch of people who are jealous that their hats aren't nearly as spiffy as Yahtzee's.
That really is a spiffy hat.

Or people that just hate the things he outlined in the article, which you probably ignored.The Rogue Wolf post=18.73035.786910 said:

I read the articles and feature content the same way AI read a newspaper, if it's interesting to me I click on it. I'm not a big SP reader, but I know it's there and I've given it a chance, and when I was studying game's journalism "The Escapist" came up on more than one occasion "Yahtzee" didn't once.
No doubt a lot of people are here for ZP and nothing else. That's fine, I only tune into the BBC for Dr. Who and A&E for Law & Order reruns. But The Escapist existed for quite some time before ZP and without it ZP wouldn't be anything. Chicken / Egg?
I guess the people on the SA forums only stop by for ZP, but what about everyone else?
I agree with the above poster. A lot of people seem to be forgetting or ignoring that Zero Punctuation is by far the biggest thing on the Escapist. Don't try to deny it, no other article of video on the Escapist, no matter how high quality (and the stuff here is pretty high quality), gets 40+ pages of discussion and manages to stay ahead of the current day's or even the current hour's article when the episode of ZP was posted literally months ago.
That actually reminds me of an essay I was going to write about how quality control is generally bad for sites on the internet... I really need to get on that, I think I could make it a good one.
Dice gaming is gone! Face it! Gone! Noone cares about Yahtzee although I have it in a box and never play it because I tried once but I lost the damn manual. C'mon in this day and age where we can waste our lives on the intertubes, why do we need games involving rolling die?
I admit i found this website from Zero Punctuation and only watdched them for a while until i kept seing the recent forum posts and being interested. I found a community of mature gamers who you could have a proper intelligent conversation with and later found interesting articles different from the norm.
Yahzee is the best thing that could have happened to this website if just to let people know of the rest of the great things here. Unforgotten realms is quoted more than Yahzee sometimes even so this article is just bitter.
