Okay, I get it, The Escapist was nominated for a Webby. That's great, but do you really need to bombard me with banners begging me to vote for you? It's annoying and, honestly, a little creepy. Do you have some issues to work out? Were you unpopular in High School? Did your college girlfriend call you "a little small" the first time you guys did it?

Seriously, maybe tone down the requests. It's a little needy.


Not shown: a preroll vote request, and a pop-up vote request during the video. "We've been nominated for a Webby" final ad tally: 8.
