I'm less into people shooting videos in their bedrooms. I'm over the meandering monologues in bedrooms.

I'd like to see a vlog/blog where the perspective of the protagonist is distorted; the protagonist is essentially the antagonist in their reality. Awake Alone Unafraid (or Reve and Revelations, I suppose) does the best job of this I think, at least of all the blog/vlogs I've been keeping up on.

I also like when multiple characters involved are used tastefully and simply such that we aren't scrambling to keep up or even comprehend. This is something else Awake Alone Unafraid does very well in regards to the Esse/Eridanos dynamic.

I'd also like to see a more... down to Earth series. We see all these people reacting to Slendy in their lives, but not in a particularly realistic manner. What about going to family? Police? How about their jobs and schooling? They can't simply hope to support themselves without a job, regardless of Slender. After all, out on the street = wide open for the generic Slendy. I'd love to see a vlog, particularly, where the series shows how the character tries to continue- how even their mundane portions of their lives are quickly becoming affected by Slender.

Also, new twists on the Slenderman mythos over all. I feel the general idea of him as a character is becoming a dead horse in terms of originality. I want to see new takes on the idea of Slender, himself.

I'd like to see him appear in, like, a VHS tape of a recorded children's show, just-you know-hangin' out in the background, complete with VHS distortion.

I know some people may hate me for this, but: More Blogs. It seems that everytime I get on here there's a new Vlog trailerhead posted. Now, I don't know if I am the only one who would like this or not, but for you neigh-sayers, I'll state my reasons.

First off, I can't get on an actual PC most of the time, so I can't watch youtube videos. When I do, it's usually at someone else's house. I usually have to use a DSi. Now I know this may not pertain to most people, so I will shut up about it. Now, some people may agree with me that reading is better than watching in some cases. This brings me to my second point: Imagination. Words can do terrible things that images can't. The first time I heard of Slendy was through a creepy story my friend showed me. I was scared of Trees for a week, and then I decided to look him up, and read the "gateway" blog, Just Another Fool. I've been stuck on the Slenderverse ever since. Also, take Dreams In Darkness for example. That scared the living HELL out of me, and it was a blog.

Some of the Slenderverse's most famous characters come from blogs, as well, like Zeke Strahm, Avalesca, Maduin, or Lucien Drage.

All I'm saying is that it seems nowadays that people resort to video series' first when it comes to Slendy, and some more blogs would be nice.

Had to say there are some monologues long plus boring.

I am not going to get much support on this, but more text narration. It's better then a monoluge and most naration this way takes at most 30 seconds. Problems with it though are that you can get detached from the charecter. It won't be much trouble though because good writers, which every decent vlog has one of know how to develop charecters.

Something I'd like to see less of in the community is, when a new video is posted they tell us in the link slendy is going to show up.

I think it ruins the surprise of slendy, even if it's just where's Waldo some times.
And on that note, more where's Waldo.

But considering the vlog I make, I shouldn't be talking.

I know of a series that actually does a children's show. Is the VHS more important or is the slendy in the back of a children's show more important to you?

Bad submit button making Deep Angry Ground have double posting.

How about Slenderman in 1980 right around first video cameras.

Could the new texting be some way the people to communicate there.
