[SOCIAL][META] Please dont give yourselves sole credit...
Cloverfield ARG would be nothing without ALL OF US..

I just wanted to personally take the time out to say one thing in here, and then ill vanish. THE CLOVERFIELD ARG IS AS BIG AND AWESOME AS IT IS BECAUSE OF EVERYONE. THERE IS NO ONE SINGLE PERSON THAT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR MAKING IT A HUGE HIT, SO PLEASE, IF YOU ARE HOSTING A 1-18-08 RELATED WEBSITE, DO NOT ACT LIKE YOU DESERVE ALL OF THE CREDIT. IT PISSES OFF ALL OF THE OTHER FANS WHO ARENT AS COOL AS YOU PRESUME TO BE.

Now, i wont mention any names or particular websites (and by no means do i mean UF, i LOVE this website, and you guys openly aknowledge the fact that EVERYONE contributes to making the experience what it has become!! NOR am i referring to CFC, cuz that website is also ALL about group contribution. Just like UF, they aknowledge the person that found the information, and they show mad love to each and every one of the Cloverfield fans out there who take the time out of their day to come on and try to contribute.), but i will just say that there are certain hosts out there who are developing a rather LARGE head, and seem to think that each and every one of us owe HIM praise for all the hard work that HE DID on his own in making this what it is. I am sorry for going off on this rant, but i checked out youtube earlier in the week, and some of the videos that certain hosts have made, have little blurbs attached basically telling us that we should all thank him for the hard work he has put in from the beginning of this ARG, giving absolutely NO credit to the people that made his website popular at all. It just burns me personally when i see somebody taking credit for the work that THOUSANDS (or at least hundreds) of people have done to constantly take this ARE to the next level. So i will end my rant with that, but please, EVERYONE that contributed deserves credit where credit is due, and it just burns me when i see something like this happen. It de-values the work that we all do on a daily basis searching the ends of the freakin earth just to find something new to add to the pot.

Thank you for listening everyone.

Moved to Social / OT / Humor. - E

And i would have posted this in the OT section, but i really just wanted alot of people to read this, so they know that there is in fact somebody out there who is taking credit for ALL of the work that EVERYONE has done. An inflated ego is the ugliest thing man has ever developed.
I made a previous attempt at posting a similar message on the website that belongs to said host, but almot instantaneously, my post was deleted because the host did not want people to see what was said about him. Come to think of it, every single time someone had something to say to this guy that was along the lines of, hey, give me some credit for my find!, or hey, could you change this please, its getting kind of old., he just deletes the message, and moves on. Anytime someone has something to say to him, he pretty much just ignores us, deletes our post, and continues to do his arrogant thing. I know this seems like petty bitching, but to be honest, the entire population of his website is pretty sick and tired of his shit, and the only reason that they all go there is because it is a place for everyone to talk to each other. This may be suicide for me, but i have the cojones to speak up, and let people know that hes being a douchebag, and im doing it on a website that he cant delete the message from. So once again, thanks for listening, and im sorry to seem like im some butt-hurt little kid or something, but when it gets to a certain point, somebody just has to tell the dude that hes a gigantic douche bag, and he needs to check hisself real quick before he loses all of his precious traffic and realizes that he isn't SHIT without the god damn FANS.
--n its not like im being all 007 about who im talking about. This freakin jerkoff knows who he is. And so does the majority of the people who will read this. Just do the math.
..peace.

hmmm well at first i thought i knew who you were talking about... but i just checked his site and he gives credit where credit is due, heck he even bolds their name and puts a little star next to it, quite frankly i think you might be a little bitter... dennis has been what i think of as the center of our little community. now i know i should stay out of this but i dont want dennis to think were ALL thinking that or dont appriciate his time and effort he has put twards the ARG. I for one cant stress enough my appreciation twards him. Its people like him who have kept this whole thing going, especially though the dry spells. i could go on but i dont want to speak on dennis behalf. so, i think i've hit the bases i wanted to hit, so now, time for sleep.

Thanks for your support, but I don't think he is talking about me...

Do you have enough cojones to tell the name of the website?

No dude. Dennis is THE MAN. Cloverfield clues and UF are by far my favorite websites. And im sorry if i just went off and sounded like an asshole myself, i really just wanted to post the message somewhere that the host could not delete it, and im sorry if im makin other people mad by doing that...please feel free to delete this thread guys. I already feel bad for makin this a topic and attracting alot of attention where it really is NOT needed, i just wanted people to read, and one person in particular to read it and realize that he needs to check hisself and try being the humble person that he was in the beginning, that actually works WITH a team, rather than claiming that he IS the team. Im sorry if i dont outright say a name, or website, but to be honest, no matter how tired i am of this stuff, i still want to be able to go n talk to my friends, and this guy is the type of person that would ban me for life just for speaking my mind. Its kind of a raw deal, and like i said, im sorry for subjecting everyone to this crap, i just knew that if i posted my message in here, it would get read by him, and also would get read by other members of his website. So if this does nothing else, maybe it will give other people the mind to speak up and let him know that hes bein a dick.

n my WHOLE POINT btw, is that EVERYONE needs to get credit where credit is due for all the good work that they do for this game. Anyone who is an awesome team player, which is just about EVERYONE, should not take offense in any way shape or form, because this message is being posted on behalf of EVERYONE that does good work for this ARG. NOW, I KNOW I AM NOT SPEAKING ON BEHALF OF EVERYONE, dont get me wrong, i would never presume to ever speak on the behalf of people that i dont know, or on behalf of people who are not likeminded, so please do not turn up your noses at me, thinking that i would ever in a million years put words into ANYBODYs mouths when it comes to something like this. I know its serious topic, and i hope that im coming across as treating it as such.

Just drop a name, brother.

It's the internet.
The internet was made for starting shit with no real life repercussions.

I disagree with this post. Half of the people here have done squat.
The other half though, props. Some more than others, but props.
