If you lose a ship in EVE it's gone, no free respawn once you walk back to your body. Diablo 2 is the only other game that offered anything like this. Why haven't other games caught on?
This story recieved quite a bit of air time, compare that to the how much time they could have gotten if they'd advertised for the show during say... the superbowl.

Tell that to our ???-overlords when they come and kill of a few thousand of us accidentally.
It is just good practice to link to a archived page, especially if using it as a resource to make a point (so the point is not lost in editting, however prudent the editting).

I wrote for GameSpy's now-defunct 3DActionPlanet.com a while back. We only did editorials and demo reviews, leaving the finals for GameSpy's parent site. The job did not provide economic security, but it was a lot of fun. That being said, we were shut down because of the lack of direct editorial control and oversight. Now everything is run through GameSpy.com and the reviews are all pretty sensationalist.

Vandalism is a very real problem. Are you a troll?
I do concede that they do tend to improve over time, but that said, getting modded in a thread on /. tends to get them vandalized.
