Alright. Other B3tans are gonna hate me for this, but I have to agree with a lot of stuff this guy is saying. Rob isn't THAT funny. He's a bit screwed in the head. Why does he do stuff like 'crack my knuckles'? It's just random, not funny, not fun. His flash skills aren't amazing, and he isn't that funny either. I like some of the stuff he does (Hey, Hey, 16k, Conzentration, Cursor Love Bunny, Patrick Moore plays the Xylophone etc etc) but considering he does ALOT of stuff, that isn't that much. Yes, he is a genius for spawning b3ta.com but it isn't his stuff that makes it a great site. In general: he is good, but I think the review is an honest one, and one that is in most parts correct. Let the 'me bashing' begin...

Now, this is my personal opinion. I think Rob is a great guy, b3ta.com is a great place and bits of b3ta.co.uk are great. Other bits... are best left alone.

Now, go ahead and flame me, feel free to. But it's just my opinion. I'd rather hear a good counter arguement than people just saying 'COCK OFF!'.

Oh, and A) this isn't a thread waste and B) No, this is better than thread jacking

# I don't think all fo Rob's stuff is amazing
but I do find some of it hilarious.
But the thing is the guys review is so stupid. For example:
"I didn't like the first female or shemale, so i can't see why he'd bother making more", when the simple fact is he made more because it was amazingly popular.

# well, the guy who wrote the review didn't know that did he?
although i do see your point, i just think you should see his point of view.

When I first saw his quizzes, I made a choice not to do them. Why? Quite frankly, they're a bit disturbing.

# hmm
I think that's not really the point.
What my interpretation of the stuff is that it's deliberately low-fi and off-the-wall, especially if you contrast with the ConZENtration game, which is very slick "corporate" Flash work. I think that "GhostDude" thought that b3ta.co.uk was an attempt at a US-style "humor site", which it's not. Why does everything have to be obviously funny anyway?(*looks at "Friends" and shudders*)
right, I'll shut up now,
