I had someone tell me I was stupid for promoting for Racketboy at a convention when there are much better sites out there. It just happens. Though the guy that said we were salivating over sealed games, that makes me laugh.

To be honest, I stopped writing main page articles for a while because I started getting threats in my inbox daily from them.


who the fuck threatens someone over an article on a gaming website?

Sadly Im not. Ack has read several of them, and received some himself, I got several death threats for this site in the past. Heck, I forwarded one of the last ones I got to Noise, he couldnt believe it.

It just goes to prove the internet dickwad theory.

:o are you kidding me? Now I want to write some articles and get death threats myself. :lol:

You know, as long as they reside in the same country as you, you can call the police on them. Even if they weren't serious, I would do it, cause there's nothing more fucked up than making death threats (specially for something like that)

how can i contact this guy? i want the 4 minutes of my life back. If i wanted someone to read Racketboy to me, I could ask my mom. This guy made no good points, and it just sounds like a bunch of BS to try to get some internet attention

I just can't even fathom DEATH THREATS. What opinion could possibly be so controversial as to incite death threats on a video game website? I mean what could the death threats even be over?

Was someone insanely pissed off because Racketboy said he preferred Marvel vs Capcom over Marvel vs Capcom 2 or something?

You gotta post one of those death threats, I just can't even believe it. You can remove names and whatnot if you have to.

You know, I heard the guys who did Dark Age of Camelot, received a lot of death threats every time the changed the PVP balance of their class...

They are on another email account. Ill see if I still have them later. I know I still have some of the "douchebag" ones, I dont know if I still have the death threats. I think I just 86ed them and kept going.
