Poll: Would you leave the Escapist if Zero Punctuation was discontinued ?

[ThreeKneeNick]

I'd still come for MovieBob and Lisa Foiles, and the news and that stuff.

 

[weker]

since bob's new series and Extra Credit I plan to use the escapist more.
I have grown tired of ZP negative video personality where plenty of his points are petty to me.

 

[dday4you]

mmmh pancakes

 

[MiracleOfSound]

I come here for the forum, not for ZP.

ZP is a bonus.

 

[DarkShadow144]

I wouldn't leave, I would be sad, but I wouldn't leave here just because one series was droped

 

[Guffe]

Great show and creds to mr. Croshaw and Escapistmagazine for his show and it's really great but the site is also so much more even if he is the one who has introduced many to this place according to various polls on this site.

 

[Imbechile]

No. I came here because of ZP, but I wouldn't leave.
The community here is great and there are other things to do on this site.

 

[RedBeta22]

Short answer: No. Long answer - Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

If you had asked me 3 years ago when I had first found The Escapist the I probably would have said yes. But since then The Escapist has grown into so much more then just the home of ZP. There is the LoadingReadyRun crew, Movie Bob, Lisa's Top 5, and all the other great Video content. And you've got Critical Miss, as well as the weekly Escapist articles.

There is so much awesome here that while I would definitely miss Zero Punctuation, I would still regularly visit the Escapist. It's proud position at the top of my Bookmarks bar isn't going anywhere.

 

[Esspytood]

no, there's still movie bob.

and if he left...

...

then yeah, probably.

 

[elcamino41383]

No, I wouldn't. But it'd sure be one less thing for me to enjoy on the site.

 

[Dethpixie]

I joined for Extra Credits so.... Pancakes!!!!!!!

 

[Addendum_Forthcoming]

I think more non-Escapist care about Yahtzee than forum active Escapists ... I mean you take Yahtzee's DC Universe review. 191 comments.

You take the show Extra Credits with it's 'Achievements' discussion. 263(?) comments.

Thats a big difference, yet it seems more lag is generated when Yahtzee posts a new vid. So I think if Yahtzee disappeared, I highly doubt the bulk of the Escapist (Edit forumers would disappear with him

 

[MorteSphere]

I'd be more pissed off if Extra Credits was kicked off. But then I still have The Big Picture.

 

[Jabberwock xeno]

No.

ZP is the hook, but extra credits, moviebob, and the great community keeps you here.

 

[Lionsfan1986]

ZP was the reason I first went on the Escapist. Then I discovered Extra Creadit (I know I can't spell good). Then The Big Picture, if ZP was gone then I would just watch the other two, but I am a bit obsessive compulsive and that would be a huge hole in my Wednesdays.

 

[Okysho]

while it's true ZP got me here, it's actually the big picture, EC and LRR that keeps me

 

[Justanothergamer300]

ZP got me here but if he left I'll still have a ball watching Escape to the movies and Extra Credits

 

[Kermi]

Most of the Escapists articles are an enjoyable read, and I quite like Extra Credits. I used to watch everything but as the forum community has grown progressively more retarded as the site has grown in popularity I seldom linger here anymore.

I drop by for ZP, Extra Punctuation, Extra Credits and sometimes I see what Lisa Foiles is up to this week. When the weekly email drops telling me about this week's news stories I'll read whichever ones seem particularly interesting but I'm not the content whore I used to be.

So no, I guess I wouldn't leave if Zero Punctuation disappeared, but I'd be coming to the site less.

 

[Aesthetical Quietus]

Came here for ZP and found others that interested me. However, ZP is the thing that keeps me coming back each week. If ZP wasn't here I would end up doing the others in marathons. [Checking it once every few months and watching all the new ones].
