LOL, my point wasn't to watch it...or to not watch it really.

It was, they have the right to advertise too, and to be completely fair, GBTV might very well be a source that people use to 'see' if this game is worth it ...and/or it might have been the 'go to' for information back in early 1.0 days for some of the 1.0ers who quit who are now looking to make a comeback...so in both those cases, I can see some 'good' in it.

That said, GBTV needs to get every little factoid right, down to the very last detail. While they don't need to outright apologize for their lack of professionalism in the early 1.0 days, they need to make it clear, that they've changed and aren't simply riding the 'popularity bandwagon' and/or just hanging around in hopes that the game will fail again.

You can't insult the loyal fanbase of gamers who stuck with the game, and then expect them to not remember it. I actually won't be watching the show. But they have the right to advertise here. We also of course have the right to nicely say, we don't approve of their past behavior, tactics etc.

I will stick to the podcasts and websites I like, run by people who know what they are talking about and who were there playing the game, when it was supposedly 'garbage'. Because, well that's what I like and how I roll. Besides, I found good sources of game information that don't include GBTV...so why would I switch .

TL/DR: You don't find out who your true friends are until you are struggling and down and out. The people who support you and stick with you through thick and thin are the people you can trust, and keep close. Those who are only around when the going is good, typically aren't worth your time. GBTV is a 'fair weather friend'.
