OK so if I make fun of Mojave Music for making fun of Earthlight Ray for making fun of me does that ascend me directly to the Fourth Level of Internet Commentary (Post-Anti-Irony) or do I have to take it step by step???
Man we should all just be 100% perfectly happy and contented with our lives at all times, and never find anything wrong with anything anyone says ever.
That would solve all the problems in the world and we'd feel so great about ourselves if we did that.

well first you have to join Something Awful.
And you can take that opportunity to read that dangle rhombus thing.

is that an actual thing that exists or are you just cursing in Adventure Time-ese?
no but in seriousness I cannot name a single well-known LPer who's come out of Something Awful in the past three or four years. Most of the new big names have been either endemic to Youtube or from dedicated LP sites, or from reddit in the case of the Saving Progress group and such.
oh wait are the Game Grumps from SA? They're pretty popular.
i've seen the porn
if Northernlion has 20-odd novelty twitter accounts that grew out of one-off jokes he made, there being porn of two much more popular LPers does not surprise me in the slightest.
See the thing with raocow is that a lot of his older videos get way more views (proportionally) than his newer ones. Somewhere along the line he changed his style of commentary and the last time I watched anything new by him he seemed to mostly be bitching about slippery controls.
another problem is that he was one of the first to do the "wacky, stream-of-consciousness" style commentary, and that's been somewhat undermined by the hordes of people who try to do that now and fail at it.
At some point he started insisting on playing the games "correctly" (no save-stating) which tends to cut down on his random commentary, especially in difficult levels. Some people don't like this.
I personally still enjoy his videos aside from the occasional "this level is so freakin' hard I'm gonna chuck my controller across the room" one.
it's definitely made him way less interesting to watch. Coupled with his increasingly loud opinions about old games being "better", I just sort of lost interest.
on the other hand you've got DeceasedCrab who took that "zany" style of commentary through the roof and is now basically the equivalent of someone yelling "PURPLE MOUSTACHE WAFFLE CHECKER" repeatedly. So I guess there's no happy ending, really.

You agree with me imi; just you are tactful and don't always express your opinion, because sometimes you think it is not worth making trouble. :)
most things Socrates said were actually things that Plato said.
there are people who care about that, but I'm not one of them.
Something Awful LPs?
what is this, 2006?
I see.

You're generally watching it more for the commentary than the game.
