Right...
And the fact that they removed the video and all related comments from both youtube and DSTV websites and deleted comments from their facebook page says what exactly?
See my middle finger? Suck it.
Bunch of tardy asses. The show is a 2 bit piece of shit, actually the show is an insult to gaming and the culture behind it.
If you don't appreciate gaming..would you please fuck off.
They shot themselves in the foot with that "small minority" remark. It just proves how unsincere that apology was, and that it was only done to quiet the masses, which didnt work.
Could not have said it better myself :)!Quote:

To improve, to become better in every way possible so that the 'competition' is left so far in the dust they have no choice but to shape up in kind or shit the eff out.
Lol, the original video article was on 4 different sites already with people pissed off about it, include FB and you have way more than a minority ...... what idiots.
LIES! I wouldve been broke otherwise :DQuote:
“The Verge is sorry to read that some viewers were upset by the light-hearted nature of one of our thirteen reports from rAge 2011. As an official media partner of of[sic] the expo, we covered every single angle of the event, including running a joint stand with the organisers, NAG. The detailed nature of our reports and strong all-round presence should indicate a healthy respect for gaming culture and the people who participate in it. Vuzu is an entertainment channel and we think humour is an important aspect of that, so hopefully the small number of viewers unhappy with the LAN report will see the lighter side of things.”
