If the escapist was gone forever, what site would you go to?

[MelasZepheos_v1legacy]

I would just go back to...

Well actually, it wouldn't make that much of a difference to me, now I think about it.

 

[Tharwen]

I would go back to the crap-comment-land they call YouTube and cry.
Then make a video about me crying.

And then watch as you're publicly called a fag and a pussy in the comments section, while two anonymous YouTubers argue about whether or not God exists.

Does no-one else imagine the following image when they see the word "YouTuber"?

Spoiler

Not bad for 5 minutes on GIMP, if I say so myself.

 

[Snarky Username]

Sometimes I hang around the Emuparadise.com forums. They're kind of dead though

 

[Triaed]

I would also go forever

 

[SenseOfTumour]

Yeah, I sense I'd be back at Gamefaqs, and being eternally disappointed when I try to start an interesting thread (imho anyway), and finding just answers like 'yes' 'no' or 'go back to x, fanboy!'

 

[JWAN]

Yeah I might stick around on youtube, the comments have improved a lot since the new layout and rating system.

because the nubs cant figure out how to work it lol

give it a month

True enough, with that description they decided to hide more more people will be trolling video posters because they can't find the info.

OT: Yeah I'd probably be going to somethingawful.com, while they charge 10 bucks once to get in they don't do what say the Escapist is doing and separating their community with a exclusive title and separate forum just for them. While I understand it's to support the site its also ridiculous to not see that separating your community is a bad move, to me it seems like giving reason for these people to act like bastards or people to act like bastards to them. Much like the halo in TF2 gets many nasty comments at you, or modders replacing the halo with a big sign that says "Fag".

I'd actually get around to playing all these new video games instead of talking about them with other people!

 

[Anticitizen_Two]

I know it wouldn't be IGN. I actively avoid ever going on that site.

 

[Blanks]

I'd probably spend more time on the SpoonyExperiment forums or the TGWTG blogs

 

[Spaghetti]

I...don't know. This is the first forum I've been on so I'd probably prowl around looking for another equally friendly/flame retardant one.

 

[Sightless Wisdom]

I have no fucking clue. Honestly this place is great, it's the best internet forum I have ever come across and while that may not say much, I have to say I love this community.

 

[Blatherscythe]

Might check 4chan out or might create a facebook account (or another chatsite). Hey you said the escapist was gone, I'd be desperate.

 

[gamefreakbsp]

If you are talking about a strictly forum website, I am going to start frequenting Something Awfual anyway, so I would go there.

 

[xXAsherahXx]

I would probably drift towards PSP forums. I wouldn't enjoy posting nearly as much as I do on the Escapist, but at least I could keep better tabs with the hacking community.

 

[Guitar Gamer]

I'd somehow contact some escapists I know otherwise and we'd make our own forum!

Just like the escapist but..............less funded

 

[Fritzvalt]

This is the only real forum I post on, so I'd probably bum around 1up more.

 

[Klarinette]

In terms of internet communities, I wouldn't really bother, except for the couple that I'm involved in on LiveJournal (SHUT UP!!). Just websites in general... Facebook would probably have 100% reign again. Ugh.
