*edit - Why are people getting so angry at this when PA are clearly making fun of Kickstarter scams (of which there have been plenty)? Are you so annoyed with PA simply existing that you'll just ignore the content and context of the comic for the sake of making jabs at it?
The Banner Saga is the only Kickstarter I've donated to, really looking forward to it, especially th free multiplayer that's slated for this summer. Unfortunately, yeah, statistcially at least a few of these games that are getting funded will likely never see the light of day (not talking about the Double Fine/Wasteland 2 success stories).
Yep. I've become convinced over the years that GAF has a chunk of users who's sole purpose on these boards is to hijack every thread about Penny Arcade -regardless of the content - and just talk shit about it. I actually find it pretty amusing now since it happens like clockwork every time.

Ok, this first page is ridiculous. Context people.
For the last week or two, Penny Arcade has been linking and pimping out a number of different Kickstarter campaigns. They're Kickstarter supporters, people. Just read through their last couple of posts.
Then this week, an actual Kickstarter scam comes out. So they make fun of it. Just that scam, and the type of people who unfortunately fall for them.
It's... painful to read GAF at times.
