A college friend introduced me to Zero Punctuation, stuck around watching that for a while before deciding to sign up.

My friend sent me a link to a new webcomic he discovered. It was Critical Miss. I've been hooked to this site ever since.

Found ZP, liked it for the first two videos, discovered the forums, haven't watched a ZP episode since.

It might be my least favorite thing on this site, actually.
while it is nowhere near my least favourite thing on the site, this is pretty much also my story.

Zero Punctuation was being featured on X-Play so I came on and watched a couple of his videos. Started to check out the articles and other videos like MovieBob. Set up an account and started posting on forums and here we are now

A friend showed me ZP, so I did a marathon (About a year of ZP in a day or so) and started watching him every week. After a while I started clicking around on the site and found Unforgotten Realms and Unskippable. Now I watch almost every show on the site, reads a few columns a week and it's my primary source of gaming news. Also a huge fan of all things LRR, even the things not on this site.

Someone in whole different place in the internet posted a link to ZP. After watching tons of these videos i found out that there is more to escapist.

I was looking at the facebook page for Minecraft, since I was bored and couldn't play minecraft.
They posted the video for Yahtzee's Minecraft review at the top, it looked good, so I clicked it.
I thought, "Hey, this guy is awesome. Does he have any other videos?" and searched up Zero Punctuation.
Watched some other videos, and decided to check out the rest of the site.
Thank you Minecraft. :D

A friend introduced me to Unskippable and I loved it and decided to join. It wasn't until two weeks later did I decide to watch ZP and in october I finally decided to go pubclub.

Came here from google while looking for a game review.. came across the review by Shamus Young (have no idea what the game was anymore) and hung around reading the rest.

Some guy made a repeat thread and it made international news.

A friend gave me a homemade Unforgotten Realms DVD, I decided to check the link in the watermark. I think that's fairly unique ^^

An old show called Unforgotten Realms.

Sadly after it arrived here it started slowly going downhill. But than i stayed for ZP just like 90% of the community I imagine.

I was searching for another site called "The Escapist" when I stumbled onto this one with a Bing search.

That one had a focus on tabletop RPGs and culture instead of video games.
