Primer

This site is a compendium of my (IskatuMesk's) public content including my video media, written media, resources, and links to my few outlets.

First and foremost: my content is often highly politically incorrect. I make no effort to censor myself, conform to mainstream points of view or soften my opinions for publication. I use coarse and crude language in great abundance. If you are easily offended I highly recommend against pursuing any of my content. Viewer rearsore may occur.

Content on this site is not intended for children.

This site is a perpetual work-in-progress, and many sections are incomplete or remain to be added. There are no supplemental sites or platforms - this is the sole location which I post content and communicate with the public. Unless otherwise stated, all sections, including various Articles, are considered drafts and may not be accurate or peer-reviewed yet.

Along with my work, this site also features or benefits from contributions from a handful of other individuals. They are as follows.

ApexX, Starsworn, Gameproc's revival, and all content I produce therein is built with the eternal memory of my two beloved cats, Snowball and Smokey. Across countless productions, virtually all of my LP's up to 2021, one or both cats were repeating guests offering plenty of abstract commentary and silliness. The sole lights of my life and my only family their loss is immeasurably heavy and the world is forever darker in their absence.

This site makes use of game art assets, original concept pieces, renders, and fan art pieces, which are property of their respective owners. Content on this website is utilized under fair use for the explicit purposes of education and, especially, criticism.

The vast majority of the site's content is segregated onto sections in the right side menu. You may also consult the Content Index. No video content is available for DDL as of 2020.

History

Many years ago (around 2001ish), a site called AEN within the Starcraft modding scene hosted my works. After it was shut down WarGiant and I began to pursue the creation of an alternate site to host our content. Many sites and subdomains were created in this era, but few lived very long. GameProc was born, but did not live very long either, as I didn't know how to run a site and WG was both busy and not motivated enough to run anything independently. I'm a content producer, not a manager. Then, somehow, Lavarinth ate everything and hid away in his car trunk for years on end.

Fast forward to 2010. I began producing public video content for Starcraft 2 on youtube with the arrival of its beta. While I had produced sparse private and public content in the past, this was my first true venture into the very young world of Western commentary. After a year and a half or so of accruing a devoted following I had switched to producing Let's Plays, starting primarily with Darksiders 1. I eventually approached Lavarinth with the prospect of hosting the content on the FTP, as Youtube's limits, censorship, and streaming issues continually hurt both me and my viewers. It was not long before I made the full switch to the FTP.

Since then I presented content exclusively on a CC subforum, using a blog to mirror my updates in an easy to follow format for those without CC accounts or the desire to follow the thread. At the end of 2015 my content had grown large enough, and varied enough, that I felt it could benefit from a more devoted locale. I had previously launched HTML directories for certain content types, like League of Legends casts, and decided to merge those into a makeshift site Lavarinth had put together in the past. I had entered the dangerous and spectacular fedora-tipping world of Web Design. With my very first line of HTML I officially entered the ranks of the finest Western Games Industry programmers. I could take on the world. Or, make a more organized alternative to the LP thread, which I still keep up to date and synced until 2020 when I finally closed the subforum. Finally, GameProc as a name had a reason to exist other than to be just host to my files. It would present my content as an actual entity and name.

At the end of 2020, I was informed that Dreamhost told us we needed to remove all content from the website unprompted and completely out of the blue, allegedly breaking a 10+ year-old "unlimited" contract in which they had welcomed my content and activity with open arms so long as it was public. This devastating rugpull would kill my public content. In exchange, DrunkSwede opened up a semi-private FTP that featured all existing LP and Compilation content up to that point, and for the next 3 years my releases would be exclusive to that platform before it shut down in early 2024 due to hardware failure. Somewhere between 2020-2022 the Gameproc website began to break from php updates until it became completely uneditable in 2022. Normally, Lavarinth handled such issues as they had come up in the past. However, he was unwilling to investigate or even acknowledge the problem during the three years of the site's broken state and simply ghosted me. Finally, in Quarter 2 2025 I took it upon myself to perform the 15 minutes of work necessary to research and update the CMS of the website and the news posting system using community-made resources and restore functionality.

Gameproc now exists as a database and a memorial. No hosting solution for the content exists, so what you see here is text-only.

To me, Gameproc isn't about gathering popularity or reaching out to other people, much less "making a difference". It's about collecting all of my work in one space for myself and a few dedicated viewers.
