How did you stumble onto The Escapist? For me I googled MoH Airborne review and I noticed a cartoon thumbnail so I clicked on it and I was witness to my first Zero Punctuation video. I probably watched the video 5 times laughing my ass of each time. Then I forgot about it til Nov of last year when I set up my account.
THIS. This is the exact same reason I found the Escapist, and I was watching Zero Punctuation videos before I even set up an account. MOH Airborne, its mediocrity brought me here, so I guess I have EA to thank for making me love this community. lol

I googled "Dragon Age Origins review" and found Zero Puncutation. Been on almost every day since...

One of the early Zero punctuation videos was linked on my wow guild forum.

Don't these threads never end.

I stumbled onto it in an enchanted forest while riding a giant bunny and thinking of an appropriate ointment for my ravenous llama-like leopard of doom.

I'd love to see a poll on this thread, only two options though: "Zero Punctuation" and "Not Zero Punctuation". Who wants to guess which would win?

Zero Punctuation for me too.

Someone pointed me to Zero Punctuation, I laughed my ass off, and watched and rewatched those episodes over and over for weeks. Then I started exploring the rest of the site. I still like ZP but it's not my favourite part of the site anymore.

I credit the Escapist for getting me interested in video games again after years of disinterest.

If you're just gonna bash the thread why comment at all?

I knew of the site a long time ago. I've been an internet forum nomad since the 90's. I'd occasionally see links to the escapist over at mmorpg.com- but chose to avoid this place due to what I perceived as draconian forum moderation.

The escapist is my last stop on a long list of dead/dying forums as I wander this series of tubes.

I saw it mentioned here [http://www.pastemagazine.com/blogs/lists/2008/11/top-5-video-game-websites-for-perspicacious-gamers.html] on the Paste Magazine website. I came to the site to read the features and watch videos for almost two years before I finally joined.

A friend got me hooked onto Zero Punctuation and another friend introduced me to Doomsday Arcade. After that I became curious and checked out the rest of the site on my own.
