This community is so childish and entitled. I hope JP understands the kind of people that complain and vote no in the poll, and doesn't actually care about what they think. | ||

We get it, the first two seasons weren't great, but this one is. And really, the show does spend most of the time talking about MLG when there are tonnes of other events going on. Other than DH coverage since they had Thorzain on the show, every other event (save GSL) gets like 5 minutes. guess you completely missed on JP saying how improved NASL is this season and that everyone should watch it. of course MLG gets the most coverage. You know why? Its the only event all the hosts are actually at. Why did DH get a ton of coverage? Because Geoff and Thorzain were there! Most of the events, the hosts aren't even at and half of the time they didn't even see it. I wish people would think | ||

I'm claiming he is replaceable, which nothing you are saying refutes. Asking not to be criticized harshly on the internet is asking for special treatment. The best of the best get given all sorts of shit by the droves of anonymous trolls looking to rile people up. JP implying that he specifically should be less subject to it than others is silly. I'm not against JP at all. Day9, Tastless, Artosis, and even Husky have skills and talents that JP doesn't. That doesn't mean he's bad, its just means that he is easier to replace. As I've said repeatedly, I just think he's not in a position to threaten to quit just because people made him angry. Apparently this is hard to understand, but to clarify, I hold the opinion that JP's comments were out of line because he lacks any unique and irreplaceable talent, therefore threatening to quit is childish AND I love State of the Game, appreciate how much work JP and people like him put in for the community, and hope JP continues to be successful. In my opinion, his comments were counterproductive to his own personal career growth. Dude, wtf? State of the Game is not a news show. Nor is it a talk show. It's a show about a few friends chilling together, discussing certain topics because they all work in the same industry. And this buddy-flair is what makes SotG so good. It's not about how it could be more efficient or stuff. Great job guys, keep up the good work! | ||

You're fortunate to have JP, and other players and progaming representatives, involved in the community in a direct and personal manner. If you abuse that privilege, expect to be called out on it. If you want professional spokespeople, then enjoy your complete and total separation from every progaming figure in the industry, apart from extremely carefully worded announcements and press releases. oldie8 has no point. If he wants to be treated like a customer talking to an employee, then he'd better call up MLG's support services and talk to their help desk. You don't get to act like a whiny, spoiled brat to a person, and then start pretending that it's their job to be polite to you. Pretty funny that you think you know what i want, because you are actually completely wrong. I did not say in a single word that i WANT spokespeople instead of community figures, nor did i say i WANT to be treated as a customer. All im saying is that business works that way, people WILL contact your sonsors and they WILL contact your employer for stuff they dont like, and the players/casters/community figures have to learn how to deal with that, since telling the community to stop doing that doesn't work. But to make it clear to some people: I personally love watching sotg with JP on it,and telling people you like what you think they did wrong is not hating. I do not contact sponsors or anything like that and i dont support people that do so. Having an opinion on how audiences/communities are going to act is not the same as agreeing with what they do. | ||

I am an avid listener of the show since back in the beta, yet i have never posted comments in this thread, on twitter, or even reddit about the show. I can remember, when the show was audio only, with a very varied cast, and without regular air-time, and i just want to say i really apreciate all the improvements you have brought to the show, productionwise, and contentwise. I myself have worked with independent radio broadcasting, and i pay my deepest respect for the amount of no-budget unspripted quality airtime you put out there on a regular basis. The only critizism i have of the show is that the drama-seeking and uninformed loudness of reddit (and some people in this thread) through time has seized so much attention of the show, now to the point where you feel frustrated, and feel like taking the show off air... That would be a genuinely sad thing, if that were to be the case. I would much rather see a less interactive show, that deals more with whats going on in the game itself, and briefly covers the larger scale politics of esports (and doesnt deal at all with random drama in the community) than i would see it taken off the air... | ||
