No it won’t. Actually the best thing to happen to these sites is to get back to what they should be. Deadspin should be about sports. Gizmodo should be about tech and so on.

Why does what’s left of Gawker media need to rely on writing negative stories about people all the time? Page views? Are they Perez Hilton now? or TMZ?

Christ.

Nope, people aren’t reading Deadspin or Gizmodo for hot takes on Charles Johnson. Gawker was shuttered preciously because Univision determined it was a bigger liability than asset. There is no reason to think they want Gawker style posts on the other sites.

Archer being the worst is not fact, that is opinion. Leave Bakula out of the Gawker pissing matches. I am not going to mourn the loss of Gawker, they shit the bed when the refused to follow a court order - follow it, then dispute it in court. That was a major point in the case against Gawker by Hogan. Right now…

Honestly? I hope this is the sign of things to come.

I’d love to know what, exactly, you think this has to do with the first amendment. Last I checked, Univision wasn’t the government.

Nope. I don’t have to move over for criminals who are driving recklessly. I’m not breaking the law, you are. You’re putting people at risk, not me.

Too many of the people complaining that everyone should “get out of their way” are in situations where the right lane is going 5mph over, the left lane is going 10mph over, and they think they have some Satan-given right to go 15-20mph over the speed limit.

Yep, this right here... In my state, it’s kind of an unspoken thing that outside city limits you can legally go 5mph over the speed limit. Which, is wrong, but police seem to agree with it. The general rationale is that less than 5mph over, the ticket cost wouldn’t be worth their time and energy.

On the other hand, people don’t have a right to drive ONE mph over the speed limit. Not one. The left-hand lane is not the “laws don’t apply to me” lane, and people need to remember that too. If you are a criminal reckless driver, that’s not the responsiblility or problem of the law-abiding safe drivers around you.

They’re too busy looking for a solution to a problem that doesn’t exist.

Yeah, I always wondered what some people thought of that skin. Some of the alt skins are kinda cutting it close with this kind of stuff and I’m not sure if it was the best call on Blizzard’s part. Like, I know some people are bothered by Pharah’s Raindancer skins...

I was enthusiastic for this game at first, but once I saw that you had to pay full price, then get nickled-and-dimed to death just to get characters and monsters, I skipped this game completely.

This is an article that needed to be written. Competitive in Overwatch feels 180 degrees different from Quick Play. Going down in rank feels bad, like REALLY bad.

I had a game tonight where the other team won first round, we won second, so three of the opposing team left. Obviously we stomped the remaining players, but it feels terrible.

Like, you guys knew you were capable of winning. You steamrolled us first round. Why leave? So stupid.

You know how Overwatch is supposed to be all about rotating heroes as required during a match? I have found that having Ultimate status reset upon switching is a major turn-off. If you are doing your job well, you are often back up to 80% in no time on your ultimate and having to throw that away just sucks. What if…

It boggles my mind how badly Blizzard is fumbling their ranked modes lately. Starcraft 2's ladder is going through yet another iteration (“we’ll get it right this time guys, we swear”), the climb to Legend rank in Hearthstone is an exhausting grind beset from all sides by aggro decks exploiting the system, and Heroes…

Could Blizzard also nerf the range on the turret? I hate getting pinged, looking around then dying just so that the death cam can show that it was off some distance.

There’s a reason why the TF2 competitive scene does not allow stacking and why many competitive players are upset that the competitive mode in overwatch is going to allow it even though tournaments are already banning it.
