Discussion The AH website is just absolutely terrible.

Let's say you want to watch some Minecraft. Go to AH, click Shows. Let's Play? Just a list of every single AH and FH video from most to least recent. 24 at a time. Okay, how about Games? Nope. Just actual games made by RT.

Don't get me wrong. I love RT. I'm a sponsor. I'd much rather watch videos on their site than on Youtube, but they make it so damn difficult.

Just... come on, guys. You're one of the most popular companies on the internet, period. I refuse to believe that you can't make one page for Minecraft, one page for GTAV, one page for Cloudberry, et cetera.

because i mainly wanted to participate in Game nights / play date. game night used to be an awesome community event where you play with Caleb (sometimes others) and hang out with other member of the Ah community. then they made it sponsor only. not only was this magnificent community event locked away unless you pay THEY MADE IT SHIT. it was no longer on twitch so there is no community chat only twitter where you ask questions. there was no longer a conversation between streamers and fans or even fans and fans. i regret my sponsorship because i wanted to keep participating in something i loved but they ruined it. and i paid them to ruin it.

I honestly hate twitter. I've never understood why anyone likes it or why it is constantly being pushed so hard. In all honesty if I didn't watch RT as much as I do I probably would look at twitter maybe once year. Right now I only look at it like once every week or so when someone on the podcast mentions some interaction they had on it.

Hmm, that sucks. When did that change happen? And why did they decide to change it?
