If the Escapist had a motto?

[Ace of Spades]

"Were everyone has an IQ of over 150, proven by several online tests"

The typo in the word 'where' makes this post quite entertaining

I rather like Extra Credits' motto: "Because Games Matter." But since we aren't just about games, and most of the contributors to the Escapist have a penchant toward believing games and movies are art, maybe something a bit more broad would be better. I'm not going to take the time to think one up, though, because I think being hell-bent on having a motto means that probably whatever you're selling can't stand up on its own without some stupid catchphrase.

"We are Sex-Bob-Bomb and we are ..." no that wouldn't work.

"The Escapist, where the flame-topics have their own forum"

"NeonBob isn't actually radioactive, Swollen Goat didn't steal your sandwich and TheNamlessGuy isn't a typo"

I love you!

Really?! What a coincidence, I love me too!

OT: "If you can't tell if someone's being sarcastic, we totally don't want you here"

"Get out by coming in"

 

[DownloaderOfTheMonth]

"Everyone Here Hates X Subject But Won't Shut Up About It"

or

"Negative-Land"

I mean - the conversations are interesting and some of the topics really thought-provoking, but CHRIST the majority of people on here are whiny and hateful.

Didn't this topic already get posted?

Join us for the free circle-jerk about how much better we are than every other site

That has my vote. It does get annoying.

Well, who can blame you? Those eyes, that laugh...*sigh*

Will you marry me?

I would, but Australia is just so far behind in terms of gay rights.

Also, your motto? Almost NOONE here gets sarcasm. I'm a very misunderstood Goat.

Dammit, now I'm getting paranoid and confused about whether you are using sarcasm or not. Well play, my good man.

Whether you are here to watch videos, or passing through on your way to forums, welcome. Welcome to the Escapist.

Home of Zero Punctuation, and stuff.

Bit insulting to everyone else who contributes to the site, dontcha think?

But so true. I guss that about 30% of people here found this site through Yahtzee's videos. Other things are good or even great (D&A, GKQ, Unskippable), but not even quite as popular.

I agree, I'll admit that my first experience with the Escapist was through Zero Punctuation, even though its not my favorite series on the site anymore (Extra Credits).

Maybe you shouldn't be so negative

Tell me about it. I, too, am a very misunderstood goat.

If the Escapist had a motto

It does.

"The Escapist: We have Issues"

You probably should have looked if there was before making an entire thread assuming it doesn't...

Odd. I don't recall seeing an official motto. Link or location?
