    I'm going to miss you people when the Escapist shuts down.

    Well ho-lee shit. Been gone years now (my last post was 2013? Really? I am honestly shocked to see that), come back because a friend reminded me about Zero Punctuation and find that someone here remembers me? And thought I made good posts? I guess you always wonder if you've ever made an...

    PC is "Far Superior" to Next-Gen Consoles, Says Nvidia

    Really. The PR guy (call it what you want it's the same job) from a company that makes products that can only be used in PCs wants us to buy PCs instead of consoles? You shock me with your incredible news. Maybe next you will tell me that the marketing director of Kellogs thinks that...

    Save the Xbox!

    In the very unlikely scenario where I actually buy a next-gen console, in particular an Xbone I think I'll just wrap the Kinect in tin-foil. Even if they had a light that was supposed to blink on when it was on and off when it was I still wouldn't trust it. I'm not having a camera I can't...

    What is it with people and fanfiction?

    I've got a few original novels finished that you can buy from Amazon Kindle and another few on the way. I've also got a couple of hundred thousand words of fan-fiction you can peruse if you want. Oh and like a million words of stories I haven't finished editing yet. (Yes, I counted. I have over...

    I saw Graham Stark (LoadingReadyRun) on the bus

    Noddy Holder from Slade once came and talked to me in a guitar shop in Manchester. He said he thought the guitar I was trying had a good sound and I ended up buying it. My dad was there as well and since he's a massive Slade fan he was basically speechless. To be honest I was basically...

    Square Enix Exploits Western Gamers With Crazy DLC

    You stay classy there DVS. OT: Probably banking on the old favourite of no one actually paying attention to small transactions. A $19:99 game is expensive, a $6.99 is not, and what's the harm in just picking up that next outfit for only $2:99 It's classic marketing and retail. They've been...

    Community Spotlight : Daystar Clarion

    But of course. I remember how quickly other members who broke or break the rules on a regular basis get mod-hammered if they're incredibly popular among the user-base.

    Community Spotlight : Daystar Clarion

    Right. You've never gone into a thread, deliberately posted something that would derail it, and no one's reported it because 'it's Daystar, it's what he does.' And you've never ever talked about or praised your own ability to do it either.

    Community Spotlight : Daystar Clarion

    Because I recently re-read the forum rules and remembered the days when they used to be followed by and applied to everyone.

    If you were to hit the escapist above you, why?

    Because he won't hit back and I feel the need to beat someone into a bloody pulp. EDIT: I was talking to Taco, I won't hit the dragon

    Community Spotlight : Daystar Clarion

    So. We're praising a derailer precisely for his derailing? I take it that means that the forum rule on such no longer applies? '...attempts to derail a thread will be removed, as will your forum privileges.' But yeah, good to know. And Furburt was part of the Escapist's culture...

    Poll: Escapist meme thread? Escapist meme thread!

    Memes are the cesspit of the internet. So I guess we might as well start producing them.

    How important are Mods to you?

    I never have used them and I never will. So utterly unimportant at all.

    What is your (insert number here) step plan for World Domination.

    I'm the Great Mouse Detective, my job is making sure that none of you ever succeed. And I'm watching you Daystar. Not a corner of London is safe while Clarion is at large. There's no evil scheme he wouldn't concoct. No depravity he wouldn't commit. Who knows what dastardly scheme that villian...

    Who are you to your friends and fellow Escapees?

    They have. See, I knew. And I of course know both of you. One of you is the awesome leader of an awesome group filled with awesome people, the other is that person with the Rainbow Dash avatar who's pretty cool.
