... wouldn't have met some alright people, admittedly (like the OP!). However, it wouldn't leave much impact on my life if it did not exist. Although, one member has been helpful in speaking to me in a non-judgemental way, I don't know many people like that, even my parents aren't like that. That has probably made the biggest impact, as I now at least think a little before deciding to stick shit up my nose (even though I let myself down a couple days ago). Other than that though, I'd probably just use a different forum.
If not for the Escapist I...

I would know very little about gaming, and not have experienced some of the greatest series of all times. And I also wouldn't be aware of the hilarity here, both in the forums and in the videos. I also wouldn't be a Doctor Who fan (not yet, at least), and I would suffer more emotional pain than I have.
...wouldn't have wasted 140 hours in Oblivion (although, that's not nearly as bad as some people on here).
...wouldn't have gone to GameX or New York Comic Con.
...wouldn't have a constant supply of awesome video content to watch.
There's more but those stick out.

Well, I'd have done a lot less laughing over the last couple of years. That counts for a lot more than some people might think.
Well, I certainly would not be here. I probably would be bored doing things that aren't that fun.
...Wouldn't have ever bought:
Half-Life 1, 2, and episodes,
L4D,
InFamous,
Portal,
TF2,
Amnesia: The Dark Descent,
and Psychonauts.
Also, would never have watched ZP.

I'd be spending more time on Kongregate
Wouldn't be a part of an online community because I'm against social networking sites like Fbook and Twit.
Would get more reading done, lol
Would have forgotten about Loading Ready Run, which is the saddest of all!!

Are you expecting me to say that the escapist saved my life? That without it I'd be a junkie strung out on heroine? That everyday after my miserable job I got home shoot up and do crack off the breasts of a cheap crack whore? Is that what you want me to say?
..I wouldn't have been able to post that without getting weird looks.
...I never would've found and lost what little bit of my free time I still have on Tvtropes.
..Wouldn't have heard of about Minecraft.

Would feel more isolated.
Would have never considered anime.
Would have a quarter of the knowledge I have right now about video games and nerd culture. (I was a nerd before but now I'm the one everyone asks about anything geeky)
Would have countless hours of nothing to do.
Would have a lot more time to do thing I should be doing.
Would never have admitted some things to anyone.
Would probably less social in real life, as my opinions seem to count around here, where they don't in life.
Would not be so tolerant of curse words (Thanks for that ZP lol)
I could go on, but I'll end with saying I love escapist

Probably would not have good forum to go to since I've always had bad experiences with forums in the past which heavily discouraged from ever going on them again until I found the escapist.
...would've found some other website to waste my precious time on instead.
Seriously though, I might not have developed my new found hatred for fandom in all it's forms.

This site featured largely in a re-assessment of what I wanted from life, and a resulting change of perspective that makes me almost unrecognizable.
(This happened long before my join date for this account though, heh.)
So, were it not for the Escapist, I would likely be a completely different person.
