Then why are you posting here?

Read above and go watching something worth your time.

Probably, but they aren't wasting their time complaining about it.

To express their opinion, most likely.

Or to waste our time reading them complaining that they have wasted their time.

Why are you so buttmad though?

Look, I'll say it nice and comprehensible for you.

It's too similar to MH but branching too far off at the same time, leaving the dedicated vlog viewers kind of pissed off that someone has blatantly copied the series that started all of this and messed it up. It doesn't even matter if I think it's messed up, but most others here probably will have the same opinion. What I and many other people here on UF would like to see is original ideas that go outside the box. We don't want to see concepts as well as camera angles that are from the same seed as Marble Hornets, pseudo attempting to re-ignite the magic
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
BUT THIS TIME WITH FEMALES WOW
.

The name was barely even changed, Porcelain Spiders? That's the closest thing I've ever seen to a well thought out but plagiarist attempt at making a vlog.

This is why I think I've wasted my time, because I already saw it.

 		3 things.

1. Gender Reversal on MH...stupid idea and executed terribly

2. Tails...I swear, you are some way in some way related to the project because. No one but the creator would think this is good.

3. The only thing even remotely well done about this series is the transition from Slenderman being in the side mirror in #7 and then disappearing. It still wasn't that good.

 		What is absolutely ridiculous is the fact that this series is getting the attention that it is. We've seen all of this before. Nothing is different. It's literally genderbent MarbleHorents. Why are people treating this like it's something that's so great, when it's just riding on the coattails of the first Slendervlog ever made?

I think it's terrible, I just thought I should reiterate what I just said

Well it being the "best," is certainly debatable. I mean, it is automatically the most original, I'll give it that, but compared to many other vlogs, it is very...sugarcoated? I don't know how to put it. It is more like watching a movie than anything else, it doesn't feel real, they hardly interact with the fan base, and it is a lot more like a TV show than an ARG. TT or DH seem much more, real. I don't know if you can even compare MarbleHornets to TT because of how damn different they are.

Well that's getting into technicalities, the main point is that it has been done before. You said yourself you can agree it is the most original as it is the original. If it already exists, why do we need to see it again with chicks instead of dudes?

 		Yeah, I had hope for this series at entry 3 or something. I thought they were going to seriously diverge from this path. I thought it was going to either follow the MH base story, but quickly change in the same universe, or...

Have slenderman show up when he doesn't in one of the earlier entries. They'd realize that by poking fun at slenderman, and taking him as a joke, they'd experience his real terror or something like that. Now it's just stupid as shit, and I honestly don't care about it. I'm giving it until entry 15, and if nothing changes, I'm calling it quits Mad

But even if that were the case you were hoping it would diverge into a Marble Hornets AND EMH ripoff at the same time, and that would have just made me cry.

 		seriously if you dont like it then get out of here, no one cares or is asking your opinion, Im so sure people somewhere agree with you, but this is obviously not the place, so... Also, you might want to check what Plagiarism is before accusing somebody of doing it. Dude, even a quick wikipedia read would do, its not gonna take you a long time.
They couldnt have stressed this enough IT IS A REMAKE. All this nonsense about "lolz theyre copying MH!!!1" is just really dumb considering thats kind of what a remake is??? yeah, buddy.
And the "why is it different if its with chicks" thing is also unnecessary. Do you see everyone complaining about how most slenderseries have a higher percentage of makes than females? Not really. So you dont really have a reason to be judging it based on that statement, its completely useless and escapes the point of your own argument from the begining
