Our video archives explained

Our video archives explainedOver the last few days I have noticed a large number of people asking about how to see all of our archived videos, so I figured it would be a good idea to explain it for the benefit of our newer viewers. We are currently on Season 3. That entire season is up for download. Seasons One and Two are in what we call a "rolling archive". If you go to our videos section, and click on previous seasons you will see 6 different episodes from Seasons One and Two. They are up for a week, and then on each Tuesday, replaced by the next 6 episodes.

We do this to help alleviate the immense bandwidth incurred from people trying to download all 49 episodes at once, and to make sure that everyone can get the newest episodes as quickly as possible.

So there you go.

It would also be a good idea to mention that the previous seasons are available at different sites, and if people would take the time to go to the First Stop Forum you can find a list of sites where you should be able to find the other videos.

You should also add that the entirety of seasons one and two become available for download for sponsors.

Unfortunately, I think you just changed the rules. All people will ask now is, "Where's the rest of the rolling archive?" or "why is t3h archive rolling if it's in a computer LOLZ!"

Not to mention the total retards who don't even read the news articles.

Is there any way we can keep these comments meaningful or at least useful? I mean, there's really not much point in saying, "Yeah, I agree." or "If the stupid n00bs would look in the forum this is already stated."
Here's the useful information provided so far:
"It would also be a good idea to mention that the previous seasons are available at different sites, and if people would take the time to go to the First Stop Forum you can find a list of sites where you should be able to find the other videos."
"You should also add that the entirety of seasons one and two become available for download for sponsors."

I feel stupid now... Well, not really, cause I never asked.... But to have to be explained something that is listed somewhere on here cause I know I've read it maybe in the FAQs or something is idiotic... Do we not have anything better to do then to annoy the RVB gods with out petty mortal lameness??? Hmmm... I'll ponder this one in silence, for I'm sure my lack of knowledge has angered the wise ones.

perhaps we could create a machine that would burn this information into users retnas whenever they clicked on the previous seasons?

Being a sponsor is cool. Give RT money. And give a little extra for beer.
