The question about the Whiskey Media buyout that no one is asking

What's going to happen to batmanbatmanbatman.com? I've invested years of my life into consuming the content and participating in the rich and engaging community of that website, but now it seems like the Whiskey Media buyout has just left BatmanBatmanBatman behind in the dust. Now that I think about it, the site hasn't been updated since 2010! Do any of you guys know what the future holds for BatmanBatmanBatman?

lol

same thing as rivalvideogamewebsite.com, IT'S GOING DOWN.

What I would love to know is what the Giant Bomb and Tested staff think about the collateral damage they've done to the other sites by deciding to join CBS and BermanBrawn, but that's me dreaming, they've never been upfront with this kind of stuff. I bet they don't give a shit about Rorie... Sorry, I'm just sad about screened :( The Anime Vice community is starting to get paranoid. I bet that place will get shut down. I know no one here cares about that place but they have a very strong community that deserve to be taken into consideration.

they care for Rorie they have been friends with him for years. His blog post makes it sound that he did leave on his own accord. As jeff has said before...anime is for jerks.

Man, that really suck that they are just leaving batmanbatmanbatman.com like that. I wish them well in the future :(

Yup. Anime Vice people practically exist separately the way it is. I'm sure that community will just migrate elsewhere.

I'm a little slow with this stuff, but that means that when I have a hit, I really knock it out of the park!

You're an idiot if you think the GB/Tested editors are somehow behind this. Startups get sold off, that's just how internet business works. Don't blame Jeff/Ryan/Will/Norm for something Shelby Bonnie did.

And calling someone an idiot for asking a question really makes you look smart right?

Only kind of smart. If he threw in some racial slurs, insinuations about the posters mom, and some homophobic comments he would be considered the next Steve Hawking.

OH NO! WHAT EVER WILL YOU DO KNOW?!
