Escapist getting better?

[KiruTheMant]

Has anyone else noticed the Ad's around the escapist have been changing,and this time its gone from small bits to full on removal of other ad's.Look around refresh the page a few times,its a sign that maybe the Escapist is becoming a more wealthy site,meaning less dependance on the other sites with money,because the escapist is now advertising itself.

Who thinks this is a good thing,and who else believes its linked to the premium membership?

Umm sorry I don't look at ads, I'm what some people call elitist.

As for the ads they are just going through cycles, there will be a big ad around the bend just wait and see.

 

[Marter]

I rarely go anywhere except the forums/videos, so I don't see very many ads (or don't pay enough attention to them). The ads I do see are not all that bad though.

 

[SnootyEnglishman]

The publishers club is certainly helping but the ad's will always be there they're just in a cycle between big game releases.

Yeah, In the last couple of days Ive really enjoyed the Escapist, the people & the basement has been cleaned.

Life is good.

I'm not an employee of the company, so I couldn't make a conclusive assessment one way or another. And not based solely on suppositions which are themselves based on personal ad-viewing experiences.

Right now they're advertising themselves, but plenty of times I'll see a shampoo advert or some such.

 

[tetron]

Yeah lately I have been seeing mostly escapist ads, the one for doraleous and associates made me chuckle. And even when they do get ads they're usually for new/upcoming games which is cool.

 

[Sightless Wisdom]

I use Adblock for Chrome, I wouldn't notice if the ads did change because I don't have any. I actually thought this thread might be about the average post quality improving, because that I have noticed lately.

If I remember correctly, isn't it a rule to never speak of the basement except to those allowed to enter? Than again I'm not very active

OT I never really notice ads.

OT I never really notice ads, as I have adblock.

Only a select few people have access to the basement - It is not allowed to discuss what is behind the basement, But we can acknowledge the existance of the basement.

And its an evil evil[/I] place.

Also, Dont use an Adblock - Or dont broadcast you've got it - It voilates the rules of the escapist.

Thanks for the tip, never really used that thing anyways. Kept crashing the browser.

Is it Make me kill my family evil? Or more like kill an entire country with a nuke evil. I am a really curious person.

Curiosity killed many a curious Escapist. Be warned, You will find out what is in the basement the second before you die.

Why are the selected few not killed off from whatever it is? Do they have an aura or barrier?

We are all insane enough to cope with the horror. And make absalutely no sense when asked what is contained inside the magic treedoor.

NOW NO MORE QUESTIONS ABOUT THE BASEMENT, OR WE SHALL UNLEASH THE GIRAFFE OF CANTERBURY[/B]

I just wanted to know if you were allowed to speak of the basement. Also you don't know about the Giraffe of Canterbury? For shame.

 

[gigastrike]

I actually consider the Escapist to be going into a dark age, but that's probably because Unforgotten Realms, There Will be Brawl, and Doomsday Arcade all ended their series, leaving Zero Punctuation as the only remaining show that I actually care about.

Publishers club, so no ads. Well worth it, like the HD streams also.
