You can change ANYTHING on the escapist, so what would you change?

[TingaWinga]

This is a hypothetical question about your opinions on this site.

I'd change the lineup less people using yahtzee's style of videos (yes I know he didn't invent it or own it) but they already have that and need more styles and need to add some gameplay footage people from somewhere.

Oh I'd also get rid of moviebob as I dislike him with a passion

What would you change?

 

[Catchy Slogan]

The fact that all these awesome competitions/ games are, for the most part, US only. Occasionaly they add in Canada.

I understand there is not much The Escapist can do about that, but that doesn't make it suck any less.

 

[Jonluw]

I would want for controversial topics to be allowed; despite of the flame they create.

Just out of curiosity, why do you dislike Moviebob? I like him because he may be...forward with his opinions, but at least he has a vast knowledge of what he's talking about to back himself up.

Personally, I'd change two things about the way posts are done on the forums. Firstly, I'd make it to where you have to have at least fifty posts before you can post a thread. This would all but eliminate the spambots who join and start new threads. Secondly, I'd make it to where once you hit that fifty post mark, you no longer need to do a captcha. I mean really, I have over 2000 posts. Why the hell do I need to keep doing captchas? I think at this point it's safe to say I'm not a spambot.

Mm, i would want daily (or weekly to be more realistic) yahtzee podcasts.
Wouldn't mind daily Zero Punctuation either...

That's pretty much what I was going to say. Either make them available to everyone or don't have them at all!!

 

[TheYellowCellPhone]

CAPTCHAs: Removed when you have 300 posts or PubClub.

 

[Earthmonger]

I want Russ Pitts to get back on the Beat, out there actually interviewing people again. With a camera. I miss that.

 

[JourneyThroughHell]

Get rid of Extra Credi- OH WAIT.

Yeah, this site can stay the way it is for now.

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

Extra Credits is already gone now.

So, the number one wish is done with.

I'd like John Funk to come back!

 

[YouEatLard]

I miss the animated content and the video of D&D play. Much of that was really good.

Honestly, I'd just like to see more. Yahtzee, MovieBob, Extra credit, Tales from the Table, and the Loading Ready Run guys are all great. The Escapist podcast was a nice touch as well. It wouldn't have to be from or like these, but more would be great.

Beyond the above, great job all around on the site.

Spoiler: Oh no I didn't...

All users with Pony avatars are suspended untill they change it

 

[no oneder]

Spoiler: Oh no I didn't...

All user's with Pony avatars are suspended untill they change it

Yep, that.

And also get rid of captchas.

 

[Redingold]

Spoiler: Oh no I didn't...

All users with Pony avatars are suspended untill they change it

Spoiler: Oh yes you di-id

Does that even apply to my avatar? You'd only know that it was pony based if you were already into ponies.

I was just going to say that. I'd like to see some available for people in the UK as well.

 

[Claptrap]

This, And captchas.

Seriously, It's like the escapist doesn't trust us or something.

 

[dancinginfernal]

I change their Luck attribute from 3 to 10 so they immediately win the lottery and can afford actually doing video interviews, paying everyone, and bring back a few old series.

 

[blah_ducks]

Ehh, try to make sure everyone gets paid on time. Maybe bring back ENN.

 

[fatal2704]

Get rid of Jim sterling, and bring back PGG and Top Five with Lisa Foiles.

I think he'd want to jump out a window if he had to do that. Looking at myself and how much I procrastinate, I'd just about be able to stick weekly.

I don't think I've been registered on the site long enough to say anything, however, I do agree with these guys:

The fact that all these awesome competitions/ games are, for the most part, US only. Occasionaly they add in Canada.

I swear that, from lurking on the forums for a while, a lot of people are from the UK or outside the US. Then again, of course, that is just a mere portion of the members!
