I agree.
At the age of around 12, Bisqwit rounded up hundreds and hundreds of cheaters and had them all make fake and cheated video edits.
Whaat?

If I had seen that like 6 months ago I'd go insane, but now I can keep calm and just ignore it even though it's insanely annoying and a tiny bit hilarious at some parts because of the exaggeration.

There are two choices of path to choose: * Respond to the arguments of the site in an attempt to fix the misconceptions * Ignore the site because it's creators show no attempt to figure out how things really are I'll choose the latter. However, I'm thinking of writing something of history.

Yes. Only the fact that they claim we produce FCVEs shows that they got no clue and that they are plain stupid.

Oh god. That's so wrong that it's hilarious. What scares me the most is the time people use to write all this junk.

What scares me is how much time I have wasted in rewriting and rephrasing the WhyAndHow page and pages referring to it. Wasted, because some people still apparently read it like the Devil reads Bible, to quote a saw.

If you want more crap, go to the smb3 board on gamefaqs. Pages and pages of this. I think I'm just going to give up on it. Edit: Yay. I have 5 stars

Even if the games are cheated (which I'm sure they are not) I would still be watching the .avi's created from them. No matter what, cheated or real, the videos are still entertaining. And isn't that really what this site is about? Entertaining to watch and to create... I think it is. What about anybody else? -Ev PS Did anybody notice whether or not the site has an email addy from the owner? I don't think it should be taken as seriously if he's too chicken to add his email addy to receive criticism on his own work.
Love, Ev

If you need any reason not to concern yourselves with these people then this is it. I've seen posts on GameFaqs that compare what we do with rape and Osama bin Ladin and now this site compares Bisqwit with Hitler. If the day ever comes where you take video games seriously enough to make a comment like that, even if it's a joke, means you're priorities are serously messed up. And they call us "immoral" for "cheating." BTW, let's time it and see how long Bisqwit and Bob's post stay on their forums. And lordoftheflames, whoever that is.

i didnt make his list of known cheaters :( edit: i think its pretty awful that he would go to such lengths to try and relate Bisqwit to Hitler. I mean, aside from the obvious repetition in his 'facts', anyone could do that. Hitler believed that Jewish people weren't worthy of common decency. Reciprocal believed that emu-runners arent worthy of common decency. see how easy that was? Also, I dont see how he can say that we think competetive gamers are filth and should just give up. if anything, we want our movies categorized separately so that legit runners can still compete like they do. oh well. im done with it. this really wasnt worth my time.

And all your posts have just been deleted. What a suprise. And he even deleted air_devil's post for taking offense to the Hitler comments. This whole thing is just too funny. He accuses this site of brainwashing and propaganda yet there is so much more of that going on over there. Brilliant satire :-)
