Love! True love! 
After 21 years, the popular gaming/web content company RoosterTeeth is closing it's doors. I know this certainly off-topic, but was curious if anyone else enjoyed them throughout the years. I know for me there was a good chunk of my life that was coming home from school, watching RT/Achievement Hunter, and fiddling around in WinDinkEdit. Good times.

Unfortunately for me Rooster Teeth was bad longer than it was good, given I discovered them in 2009 and stopped watching them due to a drastic drop in quality in 2015. But it is sad to see a part of classic internet culture die. Will Stamper, Newgrounds legend, is a homeless meth-addicted hobo now too. Eventually no one will remember when the internet wasn't a corporate encroachment on your life.

I was over a decade younger when Monty Oum released the RWBY trailers and that's what got me into even being aware of Rooster Teeth in the first place. Unfortunately, after Monty's passing, RWBY seemed to just go downhill.. I can't say I ever got in anything else Rooster Teeth were producing, so I don't particularly care one way or another about them shutting down.
