I got drawn in during March Mayhem a couple of years ago. Unlike the majority of my MMO community, I stuck around to see what was what here. Found Doomsday Arcade and ZP and have been here ever since...Don't hate me, I'm a Turbine fan...:)

I was actually following Rebecca (Mayes) for a bit until she told me her material would be featured on The Escapist. And so I followed, full of curiosity. In the months that passed, I discovered Unskippable, Apocalypse Lane and a few other series. But following, covering and supporting Rebecca (Mayes Muses) is my first priority here.

I did know Zero Punctuation before, but I never really connected with it. If I had to choose between staying or leaving, purely based on Zero Punctuation, I had packed my suitcase already. I know I'm going to get a beating for this.

I joined so that I could complain about some shitty article about textual references in Half Life 2.

I used to be a Channer, until one day I finally got fed up with the cancer that was killing /b/ and all the faggotry shenanigans that were going on.

I had heard several months earlier about the escapist and decided to migrate here.

I came when I saw ZP on X-Play, then saw a topic that interested me. I signed up and have been posting ever since.

I came here for ZP. And then, one day when I was really bored, I decided to check out the forums.
And you can see what happened after that day...

I was stalking around the boards for a while, until I finally mustered up the resolve to finally make an account. So, I guess the community (you guys) made me decide to join.

Like most, I was attracted her for Zero Punctuation after watching it on X-Play, then I saw the forums and the outstanding articles.

And I got tired of the GameSpot forums.

Stopped at the forums once, noticed they wren't idiots, said "Hey, that's nice", and left.

I found a new series on YouTube by a certain Yahtzee Croshaw. A bit later he put up a video saying he was moving to the Escapist for a series called Zero Punctuation. After simply coming to watch the videos for a while, I decided to penetrate the forums plant my seed here (Horrible sex joke intended).

Thus began the saga of Tellmeimaninja and his great quest.

[NOTE: I don't worship ZP. I simply think it's a bit funny, and I have too much spare time. Might as well watch it. Don't write me off as another ZP cultist.)
You cultist bastard.

I just watched the ZP videos thought they were funny. Noticed there was games I could play but I needed an account. So I made one. Realized there was a forum and it allll began. This was my terrorist post by the way enjoy it.

Came for the Zero Punctuation, stayed because the forums were actually civil.
