Is Warpaint Illisutrated worth the money?

[GoHuge]

It looks good but is it worth it?

[Hammock Parties]

Yes, especially for all the insider articles you get during training camp.

[ChiefsFire]

Yes, especially for all the insider articles you get during training camp.
amazing that you would say that...

Personally, the content isn't that bad, but the writing is horrific. As such, the writing only pisses me off. I don't need to pay someone to piss me off. Thousands in the metro piss me off for free.

[Hammock Parties]

Personally, the content isn't that bad, but the writing is horrific.

No it's not.

[JBucc]

It's not worth the free

[Gonzo]

How much is it?

[Fire Me Boy!]

No it's not.
OK. And I haven't worked as a writer for six years, even some experience as a SPORTS writer.

You're right, gochiefs. Nick Athan and <a href="http://chiefsplanet.com"><a href="http://chiefsplanet.com">WPI</a></a> are paragons of journalistic skill and integrity.

It doesn't take a genius to figure out Athan is in serious need of an editor.

[Skip Towne]

They've got a bunch of little dorks like GoChiefs over there. Does that answer your question.

[Hammock Parties]

I won't deny that the writing used to be horrific. I think it's improved considerably in the last few months.

I posted a WPI article here yesterday and no one even knew it.

I'm a subscriber. My reason is that the audio interviews in the locker room during the season are worth it to me. Some of them are cool and I can't find anything like that anywhere else.

It's such a great community that the people who work for it spend most of their time on chiefsplanet. I'd say you'd be a fool if you didn't subscribe AND make pay pal donation.

Since I've worked there we've had hundreds of guys renew their memberships. We have 3 who told me they didn't think it was worth it. It's getting better all the time. Right now there's an incredible promotion that includes a year subscription to Sports Illustrated for the same price. We're touting it as a great Father's day gift.
We get a bad rap because Nick has horrible grammar and he takes a lot of risks. Even if you hate his coverege, there's now enough other writers that you still get a great value. Quite honestly, I don't care for Nick's writing either. He knows.

Mike Nugent is our beat writer and he spends a lot of time at Arrowhead. Mike Campbell is our X's and O's and draft guy. He's very thorough.

Most of the Warpaint stuff is free, FWIW.

Send Phobia a PM over there and I'll set you up with 30 days free. Then you can tell me if it's worth it.

So a guy with "horrible grammar" decides to go into journalism. I have a little trouble with that.

[Eleazar]

Let's think about it, GoHuge, why would someone claim to have insider information?

The way I see it, Nick Athan puts "inside information" in an article because he wants you to feel all warm and toasty inside. You put that <a href="http://chiefsplanet.com">WPI</a> rag under your pillow at night, and the "inside information" fairy might come by and leave you a quarter. All they sold you is an "insider" piece of sh#t. Hey, if you want me to take a dump in a box and write "inside information" on it I will, I got spare time.

[Fire Me Boy!]

no its not

can we rename Chiefsplanet?...it should be "Employees of Warpaint Spam Chiefsplanet"

or at least create a sub-forum for all the "Nick is so great you should give him your money" posts...thanks

[Eleazar]

I don't care about the grammar. He could get an editor and not look like such a tool, true. The part I have issue with is that he parades around as someone with all these inside sources, like he's a fly on the wall at Arrowhead, but obviously is either reporting any degree of rumor or just plain making things up.

Thier New PoDcast thing they do is great. And its also free. Then again i was a fan of Mighty Mike when he used to do the pod casts at the coalition. That sight isnt a bad site, and i find myself visiting there more frequently when i wanna see whats going on with the Chiefs.

I wouldnt ever pay 99 bucks for that though.

If i wanna hear the lockerroom talk, i just listen to the post game show and hear gretz/dawson interviewing peeps 1 on 1.

I am by no means a Nick Athan Fan, but i am pretty sure he went into what he does becuase he is a Chiefs fan and found a way to make a little bit of cash. Good for him.


Out.

It bothers me Jack Harry has his own show. Satan had to have had his hand in that one.

[htismaqe]

Having been a scout.com member, here's my 2 cents:

If you're a college football fan that follows recruiting, the subscription is ABSOLUTELY worth the money.

But for the Chiefs? Nah. You can't get any insider info there that you can't find elsewhere...

[htismaqe]

does just being a paying member of scout.com get you the warpaint illustrated print mag, too... or is that extra?

I think that's extra, but I'm not sure. I've never gotten the WPI mag nor have I gotten the Hawkeynation mag either.

[Hammock Parties]

does just being a paying member of scout.com get you the warpaint illustrated print mag, too... or is that extra?

I believe it's included.

[Skip Towne]

I wonder who spelled illustrated for Nick?

[CHIEF4EVER]

Why in the hell would someone pay money to see someone misspell words?

[Nzoner]

I won't pay(unless you count my internet)for any football related info.As for post locker room talk I rarely listen unless it's a night game because as soon as the Chiefs are over I'm more interested in watching another game.Besides,I'll get plenty of soundbites on the news etc. the entire next week.

[Hammock Parties]

Why in the hell would someone pay money to see someone misspell words?

Sir...I assure you there are no mispelled words under my watch.

[Mile High Mania]

I do think it includes the Chronicles of GoChiefs... a weekly rant.

I came on stronger than I intended in my last post on this thread. It read like a commercial.

Here's the straight poop on Warpaint coming straight from Phil - no fluff, no buzz-words, no promotions.

Did Warpaint suck for a long time? It absolutely did. The first guy who will stand up and tell you that is Nick Athan. That is not inside information and I'm not charging for it.

Is Warpaint under new management? Yes it is. Has new management made positive changes. Yes they have. Is Warpaint the best thing ever? Probably not. I promise you this, though; whatever you thought of Warpaint 6 months ago - forget it. That organization is dead.

Warpaint has 5 prongs:
1. Magazine
2. Podcast
3. Sports blog
4. Message Community
5. Chiefs Charity advocate

In answer to a previous question (thanks for the shout-out NJ), Warpaint staff are encouraged to post on ChiefsPlanet because ChiefsPlanet is a great site. Warpaint competes with ChiefsPlanet in only one of the above - the message board and even then our message board is culturally very different. We don't compete. We don't want to compete. AustinChief doesn't want to compete with Warpaint either.


We have more content for offseason Chiefs news than any other media outlet in town. That's a fact.

So, to answer the original question: Is Warpaint worth the money? For a lot of people it is, especially those who have some disposable income. If you are comfortable spending $5 on a cup of coffee or $280 on an authentic Chiefs jersey then Warpaint is worth the money for you. If you're a QT coffee drinker, come by and check out the free stuff with no obligation to buy. Check out the latest podcast - it's my first appearance and I'm pretty sure I sucked. Feel free to make fun of me.

at least that didn't sound like a commercial....uh.....we get it....really...

can Chiefsplanet get one free premium membership for all the free advertising we provide?

[Hammock Parties]

Phil pretty much nailed it. There is a lot of free content that's enjoyable to read. I can't wait to see Warpaint's coverage during training camp. If it's as good as it was during mini-camp, it's going to be outstanding, and well worth the subscription. Mike & Mike do a great job.

[Monkeylook4food]

Only if the Kansas City Star agrees to give you a free subsciption for all the advertising ChiefsPlanet provides for them.

[Monkeylook4food]

As further evidence of the Warpaint improvement, we have a new writer. What's the point?

The point is that Nick used to receive a lot of hate mail from a guy last year. The guy trashed Nick and Warpaint every chance he got. He was justified.

Now he write for us. He sent an email last week praising the site and offering to provide his journalism training to benefit our readers.

My opinion of you has gone completely south as well. I think it is the company you are keeping. Hey, Phil, we all know you are there (how could we help but know it) if we wanted to come over to your POS site we would. But we don't so how about giving us a break with your constant spam. OK? You thought legions of posters would follow you to ass<a href="http://chiefsplanet.com">WPI</a> but it didn't happen. I guess you aren't as important as you thought you were.

The thing I like most about it is the beat writer's are making an honest effort at press conferences to ask football questions...not "how does it feel to be in KC Herm" questions but X's and O's...interesting stuff that I believe a lot of the demographic around here is interested in. I like that there is an outlet trying to prvoide a service for fans of the game of football. The message board community has a ways to go. Its a pretty slow process changing a culture but it gets better with time. Just a few of my thoughts...

I understand a lot of the backlash coming from this place...CP is a tough crowd and there are a lot of clashing personalities. I think if you look at WPI at face value it is a group of people who are not perfect but love the Chiefs and want to provide an outlet for information better than it is done right now...if anything from a football fan's perspective. There is a lot of work to do but there have also been great strides. I like being a small part of it.

How do you figure you are well liked? Getting your ass stomped by woman who doesn't post much encourages you? You're quite a stupid little f*cker aren't you?

[Mr. Flopnuts]

I edit all their stuff and do some writing for the magazine and website.



I say good for you. I don't know jack shit about the site except for the lack of action on the boards. I like Phil, always have. I'm sure it's improved. I'm just not prepared to pay to find out how much.

[morphius]

GoChiefs is laboring under the impression he is well liked. I guess he chooses to ignore the results of the recent "popularity contest" in which he got f*cking killed. He fits Asswpi perfectly.
And even with all of your 100 post threads and super high post count you couldn't even win. Hell, you only got passed piss ass little me because some noobs thought it would be funny to run the poll and thought it was funny to mock you.

Of course I'm just going off what they told me...

Thank you for reminding me that you have an account. I'm going to ban you and your IP right now. We can't afford to have your kind hanging around.
Ban me? But how will I know if you did it? Will you send me an email?

FTR I didn't do that to MOCK Skip. I simply wanted to see if I could sell a bunch of N00bs that Skips insults were really forms of affection and acceptance. I figured everyone knew. I like Skip, and his 100 post threads. I recognize his schtick for what it is. (That sounds kind of gross.) So yeah, it was a game for me. I was bored. But Skip would have been nominated whether I did it or not. And I think the entertainment value he provides no matter what side of the fence your on, is worthy of contention for the crown.

[thepascalblaze]

[jspchief]

I get the magazine, but not the "inside" web content. The magazine is basically fluff, but what can you expect from a monthly publication? It's certainly not going to compete with other outlets in regards to actual "news". Personally, I don't think the magazine is worth it, but I'm more of an Xs & Os guy than a fluff guy, so it really doesn't scratch my itch. I could see where it would appeal to some people though.

In terms of writing, it has improved with gochiefs' editing, but still needs work. There may not be as many spelling errors, but some of the writing still doesn't flow well. Considering the cost of the publication, I would expect better in that regard.

As for the insider stuff, I wouldn't consider it "worth it" simply because I don't feel Athan has any credibility. Anytime WPI seems to have a scoop that no one else has, it ends up being false. It was never more evident than when Gretz wrote an article flaming the credibility of the "official news outlet of the Chiefs". And even assuming they do have legit scoops, I can wait the extra 30 minutes for it to hit the rest of the internet.

So to answer the question, It's not worth it IMO. You may find that it is worth it.

[KChiefs1]

I don't care about the grammar. He could get an editor and not look like such a tool, true. The part I have issue with is that he parades around as someone with all these inside sources, like he's a fly on the wall at Arrowhead, but obviously is either reporting any degree of rumor or just plain making things up.

This is the part I have a problem with too. He says he has "inside sources" but then always fails to report breaking news until after Adam Teicher does. I've never seen that site break a story...they just throw a lot of crap against the wall to have one stick & then you have him bragging saying he said it was going to happen all along. It's a joke!

[Eleazar]

You jackass. No one cares about how many posts a thread has. <a href="http://chiefsplanet.com"><a href="http://chiefsplanet.com">WPI</a></a> doesn't need or want you.

But they recruited me. How do you like them apples?

One internet message board recruited you to post on theirs instead of another. There's something to hang your hat on.

[unlurking]

Since I've worked there we've had hundreds of guys renew their memberships. We have 3 who told me they didn't think it was worth it. It's getting better all the time. Right now there's an incredible promotion that includes a year subscription to Sports Illustrated for the same price. We're touting it as a great Father's day gift.
We get a bad rap because Nick has horrible grammar and he takes a lot of risks. Even if you hate his coverege, there's now enough other writers that you still get a great value. Quite honestly, I don't care for Nick's writing either. He knows.

Mike Nugent is our beat writer and he spends a lot of time at Arrowhead. Mike Campbell is our X's and O's and draft guy. He's very thorough.

Most of the Warpaint stuff is free, FWIW.

Send Phobia a PM over there and I'll set you up with 30 days free. Then you can tell me if it's worth it.

If there really are a bunch of improvements, and things really are becoming worth the $$$, you should offer a free 30-day trial to EVERYONE, not just one of GCs alter-egos.

[Demonpenz]

i can see warpaint taking off then everyone thinking it's the best thing since sliced bread. It's the same thing as a bar when it starts. People are alike "That place is a shithole i would never go there" But when it starts getting busy you have to track your ass over there to see what kind of beaver is hanging out.

[Demonpenz]

go ahead and cancel my 30 day free membership it's not worth the money

[JBucc]

Done.I want a lifetime free trial. After that's over I'll tell you if i think it's worth it.

If you've never seen it then you're not paying attention. In fact, Nick broke the Jerome Woods story and sourced Rhonda Moss on the 17th of last month.

I know the guy has missed a lot. You have every right to feel the way you do. Everything has changed at Warpaint.

It's probably not in the Romper Room because a member of this site asked a legitimate question and I'm busy debunking old news. If you don't want to accept that Warpaint is improved, that's fine with me. Don't go there. No problem. It's not like we're asking anybody to leave ChiefsPlanet.

OK, Phil. So hook me up with that 4-week trial. I'm not going to bash anything that I haven't read in three months.

I'll give it a fair go, and I will report what I think, good or bad.

FTR, I don't have the disposable income -- especially while I'm trying to buy a house, ****ing down payments, deposits on utilities, moving, etc.

The only quality on 610 or 810 is Petro, but if there's breaking news, Then R. Moss or Todd Lebo or somebody will be down at Arrowhead to cover the crap. Maybe I don't have the need to be the first to know when something breaks. An hour or two later is usually fine with me.

I can't vouch for the podcast (because I haven't listened yet), but "FREE" is not always worth it.

As a regular reviewer of movies for the past six years, I can say with some authority that I have hours upon hours of time spent in a theater that I want back. Did you see Stealth? What about Corky Romano? That was easy -- four hours of my life that were NOT worth the "FREE".

Again, not saying the podcast isn't worth it -- just saying there ARE some things that aren't worth free.

If one were to think about it and remove the Nick Athan hate from the equasion, there's very little difference between Warpaint and the KC Star. We both have several writers. We both cover the Chiefs heavily. Each organization has a message board.

The major differences are that they have a big budget, they're much more well known, we charge a fee for our magazine and subscriber services, and we do a few other things to enhance our coverage.

The Star takes a lot of flack sometimes, but they constantly win awards, and have two of the best sports columnists in the country in Posnanski and Whitlock.

The Star does a good job for the most part. I wasn't trying to compare ourselves to them in the sense that we're fabulous columnists. There's no doubt that we're amateurs and they're professionals. We're striving to reach their exposure level and professionalism. I strongly believe that internet based blog coverage is the future and that eventually the sports writers for the Star will be seeking jobs from sites such as ours. I would submit Knight Ridder's financial woes as proof of that.

Before the Star showed up I had to read stone tablets.

[Monkeylook4food]

When the owner has no credibility, why should I look any further? Oh, and also, the Star has been around for 126 years.

To recap, in no way do I think Warpaint is comparable to the KC Star in terms of history, budget, or exposure. Their sportswriters are certainly more experienced and more qualified than anybody we have on staff.

I'm comparing Warpaint and the Star because Warpaint produces Chiefs related articles. The Star does as well. Warpaint has a message board. The Star does as well. But articles from the Star are perfectly acceptable here whereas Warpaint articles are met with disdain and bitterness. It's a double standard. I think it has a whole lot to do with Nick Athan. A lot of people hate Nick just like they hate Whitlock (but for different reasons). When you hate Whitlock, do you take your ire out on Joe Posnaski?

There's a whole lot of talent on staff at Warpaint. If you dismiss Warpaint as a viable source of Chiefs information due to your disdain for Nick Athan you're doing yourself a disservice. If you dislike Athan's work, DON'T READ HIM. There's plenty of content at Warpaint that does not contain Nick's byline.

[Monkeylook4food]

Yes

Gochiefs is a young guy. He's done some stupid stuff over the years. He's growing up. He's a talented kid. He's building a resume at Warpaint and when he's ready to move on to a well paying editor gig at a large publication I'll write him a glowing reference.... which he'll then edit to make it sound good.

Does that answer your question?

No, I think I'll go on. I strongly dislike Kevin Keitzman but I still listen to 810. I think that's the analogy you're looking for.

Yeah, right. I'm senile because I point out there is about 180 degrees of difference between <a href="http://chiefsplanet.com">WPI</a> and the Kansas City Star. It is a whole lot easier to find differences than it is similarities. But don't let that stop your drivel.

Skip, wth has gotten into you lately?

Are you trying to alienate yourself?

Whoops, I think you missed the point there. You really are losing it, Skip. You used to be much smarter. You need to go get a checkup, buddy.

[go bo]

i got a checkup and i'm still as dumb as i was before...

That made me laugh out loud. ROFL

I get smarter every day. You are just too dull to realize it.

[Monkeylook4food]

Yeah but Skip takes pride in not having seen a doctor in forever. If his personality is changing it could be an indicator of problems. A man his age needs to have periodic checkups. I'm seriously worried for him.

[go bo]

Ok, there's been a lot of bullshit in this thread... but, this is just ridiculous.

On a side note, every day I laugh more at how much more pathetic Skip gets. Hey Skip, I don't think you need pot for your temporary self-induced senility anymore... it would seem you're driving full bore into the real thing. We'll be sure to put your final count of 100 post threads on your tombstone.unhhh, can i have what skip doesn't use?

How exactly do I have a credibility problem in regards to the Chiefs? ROFL

All my writing has been column-style, anyway. Or research-based. I've written one web article and it was well received over here.

[go bo]

If there were a problem, it would show up in my speech and my writing skills. I'm still correcting your f*ck ups so I don't see it. Remember "impliments"?

i also think it was rather well received, but i don't quite remember...

Hey, GoChiefs, could you post that, I missed it.

Dude, I misspell about 30 words a year. That's probably about .001%. I found a mistake of yours a couple days ago but I didn't post about it. I'm not nearly that bored and lonely.

[go bo]

Remember "impliments"?actually, personality changes don't necessarily have anything to do with speech and writing skills, unless one becomes so depressed as to be virtually autistic or the like...

and i rather enjoyed impliments...

not quite skinbra quality, but points for originality...

Hey, GoChiefs, could you post that, I missed it.yeah, please...

i'd like to read it again...

You know, I'd say something like that too if I had nothing but wanted to retaliate. Show me my mistake. I showed you yours.

[Chiefnj]

Hey, GoChiefs, could you post that, I missed it.

Do a search of "My impressions of mini camp while slobbering over Nick and Phil's Penises."

[Monkeylook4food]

I'd show you your mistake but I really could care less dude. It's not important that I prove you are imperfect.

[stevieray]

comma between nothing and but?

[Skip Towne]

comma between nothing and but?
Nope.

[go bo]

comma between nothing and but?nah, only old school writers still use commas in places like that, but my kids and neices and nephews all say i overuse commas and that i should leave more of them out when i post...

[Skip Towne]

comma between nothing and but?
You know, I really don't like to argue but with you guys it is child's play.

[go bo]

I'd show you your mistake but I really could care less dude. It's not important that I prove you are imperfect.wait a minute, i was just starting to get into the "i'll show you mine if you'll show me yours" routine, but then i realized it was l'll show you yours but you won't show mine...

this is all too confusing for an old goat...

oh wait, skip isn't confused...

[stevieray]

You know, I really don't like to argue but with you guys it is child's play.


argue?

It was a question.

[Bob Dole]

I know of at least one fabulous columnist that writes for <a href="http://chiefsplanet.com">WPI</a>.

Shameless. Absolutely shameless.

Does she fall for it?

That's harsh

[go bo]

for it will lead you...

no questions please...

Shameless. Absolutely shameless.

Does she fall for it?by all accounts, yes... :D :D :D

[go bo]

i;ve got to go make another drink...

caryy on...

[Bob Dole]

Gochiefs is a young guy. He's done some stupid stuff over the years. He's growing up. He's a talented kid. He's building a resume at Warpaint and when he's ready to move on to a well paying editor gig at a large publication I'll write him a glowing reference.... which he'll then edit to make it sound good.

He's also really good to wipe your feet on.

[Skip Towne]

nah, only old school writers still use commas in places like that, but my kids and neices and nephews all say i overuse commas and that i should leave more of them out when i post...
I used to overuse, commas, but, I don't, anymore.

[Bob Dole]

In parting, Bob Dole would like to share that he just pissed his full name on the driveway.

Carry on.

[Skip Towne]

HA, hahahahahahahahha. You have quite a fertile brain.

Seriously. Bob Dole left last season's Dallas game with the soles of his shoes looking like new.

[Monkeylook4food]

All this discussion about Warpaint and nobody has mentioned our Ty Law subforum. We rock.

[Hammock Parties]

The funny thing about all this is I don't really like WPI's boards in the least. I rarely post over there, and most of the time it's just a copy of something I post over here.

[Skip Towne]

Hello - commatard on the loose.,
Just one mention of tards and you magically appear. Coincidence, I think not.

[|Zach|]

Ha.

[Hammock Parties]

Ha.

This sentence is a fragment. It's clear why you don't write for us.

I thought it was a good time to break that out since you're the one that showed me that little trick.

Look it up dipshit, it is more than one incident occuring at the same time.
