Where were you before the Escapist?

[awsome117]

Halo Wars forum. Interesting place, sad the game sucked.

 

[IamQ]

The WoW forums. Looking back, I don't miss them at all.

 

[Harlemura]

Twitter was probably the closest thing to a forum before here.
Just hours of scanning through Stephen Fry's gargantuan amount of tweets for funnies.

 

[AvsJoe]

I was without forum between Newgrounds (4 years ago) and the Escapist (last year). Most of my Internetting was on Facebook, IMDB, NHL.com, YouTube, and various web-comics.

 

[scoHish]

Youtube and the occasional lurk on /b/... both chock-full of intellectuals of my caliber.


Edit: Oh yeah, and IMDb.

 

[FallenTraveler]

My mothers womb...

then my glorious birth occurred, as for forums, this is the first ive really frequented.

DELETED

 

[Mrsoupcup]

4chan/Anonymous websites. (Ebaums World as an example) Don't ask guys, you really, really, really don't want to know.

 

[Marter]

I was on GameFAQs before. Still visit for a couple of the boards.

 

[Mrsoupcup]

This is the first forum I've ever been a member of, and I've got to say, I rather like it here.

Lucky you, stay here and never leave. Take it from me, the internet can be a hate machine. (The Escapist is one of the safest sites you can go on)

 

[Elephant Walker19]

Remember that in scene in 2001 when the caveman breaks the skeleton with a bone then uses it as a weapon? That was me.

Then i discovered gamefaqs.

Then i heard about moviebob and yahtzee and came here.

 

[Mrsoupcup]

occasional lurk on /b/...

Good, take it from a fellow /b/tard, you wanna lurk MOAR before posting. Makes you fit in more, and will make posting a much easier thing to do.

 

[MikailCaboose]

I wasn't a part of a forum before this. This was pretty much my first forum. *sheepish grin*

 

[The87Italians]

Before the Escapist, I was a frequent at the Bungie.net Flood forums. That was until I left my account logged in, and an asshole friend of mine started posting some things that ended up getting me a perma-ban. A few months later, I end up here. Don't worry, I log out of my account whenever I'm done now so that kind of stuff never happens again.

 

[bak00777]

mmo-champion that was before i quit WoW, thank god i did. I still have the urge to go on the site everynow and then, but im afraid that if i do, ill get sucked back in.

 

[Thunderhorse31]

GameFAQs, and that cesspool that must not be named.

Don't judge me, I grew up alright?!?

You came from 4chan too did ya? Well it's alright you will recover, with time.

 

[no oneder]

Nah, this is actually my first forum.

I joined instantly for Zero Punctuation. But I wouldn't have joined if the main page hadn't called me a stranger.

 

[steampunk42]

there was a "before the escapist"?....actually i did not belong to a previous community....unless you count Kingdom of Loathing

 

[Nossy]

I didn't do forums before the Escapist. I was just a drunk, lonely man staring down the barrel of my .44

But now have some meaning in my life. Thank you Escapist.
