I've been looking through the comments for the latest episode of ZP and I couldn't help but notice that everyone is heaping compliments and offerings to have Yahtzees babies. That got me to thinking would YOU, thats right YOU be here if ZP wasn't on the Escapist? I personally came here by following ZP links, but I post here not because this is a home for ZP but because sometimes people are wrong on the interent and we can't have that. So why are you here?

Of coruse I wouldn't, I came to this site for ZP for a bit of a laugh, but don't find them as funny anymore unfortunately.

Then I found these wonderful forums and found out that The Escapist was so much more than ZP.

So I'd stay, though I'd also cry fowl about ZP going.

Guilty as charged. Watched ZP, saw some interesting threads in the 'Latest Posts' part to the right of the video, then registered at the forums.

I came to the Escapist because of ZP, and I'm probably here because of him, but I don't know how things might have gone if I hadn't found him when I did.

Yes.

I've actually been coming to the Escapist (off and on, and I didn't join the forums until much later) since wayyy back in the day when they were just an online magazine and had that horizontal format with the images in the background. Good times.

I discovered the Escapists because of ZP, but it is everything else that the site has to offer that keeps me coming every other day.

Eh, I found the Escapist through ZP, but I have found many other lovely reasons to stay here since then. It has all worked out very well, really.

I found the Escapist because a friend showed me ZP and I stayed for the forums. So I wouldn't have found it normally. However, I would most likely have found the site through other means, so eventually yes, I would still be here, but it would have been later when I joined rather than sooner.

I must admit, I came here when I found the LBP review, and stayed here. I still prefer unskippable now though.

Gah... I hit no, because I read the topic question and not the poll question. I thought it was along the lines of "Would you have ever come to The Escapist in the first place?". I wouldn't have found the Escapist if a friend hadn't shown me ZP. Would I have come if I just was googling gaming magazines? Yes. Stayed even if ZP didn't exist? Yes. Things like Unskippable, and There will be Brawl are just as good. Then again, I'm a fan of MST3K and movies like the Departed and Boondock Saints.

Standard. Saw some ZPs, kept coming back because I agreed with his thoughts on Oblivion and Biosh*&k and eventually saw some forum threads listed on the sidebar which I couldn't resist.
