I don't know. This is it, my beginning. I have an account at Gamespot, but I would feel lost for a while. Maybe Destructiod, I have an account there that I started when Giant Bomb was down one time. Who knows.  
 
 I probably would still read everything on Giant Bomb, just be unable to reply. I'm here but I'm not... weird.
 
Where would I write... or post... live in the moment?
 
You?

The tallest building in my area, so that I may jump off it.

I guess I'd just stick with g4 and IGN for news like I do now. Probably just keep posting blogs on my Examiner page, which I honestly need to do more anyway.

You can push the edge here. More so than the real world. Like a game, Giant Bomb has made my internet.

I'd probably end up wandering back over to Fark, since it's so easy to go through an entire day reading the stuff there.
 
That, and visit Gamespot a lot more than I do now.

Where would I go? Probably Screened. If that's gone, then Tested. If that's gone, then my blog which is updated fairly regularly. If that's gone then I'll go to RL.

Actually, I'd probably do this. Heck, it'd probably be good for me. Maybe I should start talking trash about the mods and see how long I last... Ooooh, touchy subject!

I like that idea... thought about that. Keep it Whiskey all the time. In truth though... I like video games more.

I do that. I've always liked the outdoors. I have field behind my house. The walk does me well.

Maybe 1up.  Thats a big maybe. Kotaku perhaps? I don't like either but if there's no GB, what other choice do I have?
 
Dude this question is a lot harder to answer than I thought :S

Personally I'd go to IGN.com. I prefer Giant Bomb to all other video game websites. Mostly because of the community aspect. IGN has two great podcasts, Three Red Lights (Xbox 360) and Game Scoop! (Gaming News). They also are probably the best for news.

I'd be using the Internet a lot less because I don't use any other websites as much as I do Giant Bomb. All the alternatives don't seem too great. Maybe NeoGAF, but that place moves way too fast.

So, this is more about  finding a place to flaunt your reactions to gaming related news? I'd probably opt for one of the bigger gaming blogs. I know, the blog posts themselves on Kotaku, Destructoid etc. are often calculating and sloppily written, but the community they attract, all the same, is something I could consider myself a member of unblushingly.

I doubt I would leave GiantBomb, and the only way I would actually leave is if the GB crew left. :)

I guess I wouldn't really do anything. I've slowed posting here to about .3 posts a day. I spend most of my time here watching quick looks and reading news, then going to Screened, then Tested, then coming back here. I guess if I was completely banned from Whiskey sites, that would end up being a good thing for me because I would have so much more time to waste on other things.

If I got IP banned I would use a Proxy. 
If that didn't work I would move houses to get a new IP.

There is a Dutch site called 'Insidegamer' which i frequent as well. 
It's pretty okay. 
I could live with that, but to be honest... i'd really miss GB!

   Please say you're joking...
 
For gaming news, I'd go to Kotaku (Which I do anyway, although it is good to see some news on GB) and as for foruming, I'd probably just stop foruming all together.

Come on. That's like saying, "What would you do if all cute puppies in the world died?" Well, I don't know, and it won't ever happen, so why worry about it. Go on Screened and ask Linkyshinks what he's doin'.

I've only been on here a little while but it's already my favourite forum. I guess if I was exiled I'd go on a journey to find some where similar, maybe one of the sites others have mentioned in this thread. As for outside, I try that regularly...it burns, it burrrrnnns!

I would probably go back to 1up.com. They don't have anyone there anymore that I like or respect their opinions, but some may grow on me if I gave them a chance and started to listen to their podcasts again.
