imo keep that junk indoors, or at least don't mix it with the real news. Don't pretend it's the 1st of april every day

World crisis is affecting peoples' brains lately, to the point of refusing fun:

"Oh, wait: joke - does not compute..."

If I want senseless entertainment and can't play wow, I'll go to level99comic - if I'm here however, it means I want to catch up on news, and not have to sort thru which have a dot and which don't first.

Although I was thrown back a few times when you started this, I think they are funny and love some of the comments people make in general about them since you still get people not knowing whether they are true or not....I say keep them coming and continue to confuse the masses.

Instead of attempting to create humorous articles, the writing staff should devote more attention to removing grammatical and spelling errors from the factual content. Over the past several months I have noted a marked decline in the quality of the articles. In additional to the aforementioned grammatical and spelling problems, the articles also frequently have repeated sentences. Often it appears that the author has posted the article without even a cursory attempt at proofreading.

Tom’s Hardware has been a valuable resource of information. One of the problems created by the entertainment articles is their pollution of the search engine space. Prior to the introduction of the weekend comedy articles I could assume that a search engine hit that linked to Tom’s Hardware would provide useful information; however, as more non-factual articles appear on Tom’s Hardware (especially those related to popular search terms) the value of the search hits diminishes.

I would have to agree with the majority of people commenting, this site has lost a lot of its appeal, and the jokes only worsen it. As much as I am all for innovation and change Tom's really needs to go back to what it was a few short years ago, with Second Take, Spotlight, and delivering what every PC Enthusiast wants to know about their hardware. The spelling errors being so plentiful in the articles is a sign of very very poor writing, I expect to see some of that in the comments section, but not in the articles. And also, please please, shut down toms games if you have no intention of bringing it back as it used to be, flash games = LAME! especially when the flash games on that site are lame even when only competing against flash games. If Toms wants respect, then Toms needs to go back to the way it was before Best of Media started messing with things. I know I am not the only person that feels this way.
