 		Sorry Fallen, but I have to slightly agree with Eldest here. Slendy has started to do much less than he originally did. I read Just Another Fool and Dreams In Darkness before I saw Marble Hornets, and in both of them, Slendy was more "violent" per se. But it was the parts where he wasn't violent that got your blood pumping. He just stood there watching, and you knew that at anytime if he wanted to, he could attack. The suspense really slayed me. And even in Marble Hornets he's more violent. He killed some people.

Most recently, in everymanHYBRID, he killed Alex, close to the way that the old stories say: garbage bags and all.

My opinion is that proxies should serve as messengers, as long as they don't have powers, and if they do have powers, then they bring a message through a more violent/supernatural(TribeTwelve Observer Mind Control for example) way.

And Slendy should really seem more like the main threat, the tentacled impale-you-on-a-tree humanoid abomination that we know and love.

 		Oh...I agree that slendy needs more action, definitely... for instance I would like to see slendy actually using his tentacles to DO something...in fact I do have a couple of somewhat violent sequences planned involving slendy.
I just don't want him to be nothing BUT violent xD

Yes! That's exactly what I mean. The tension comes from the threat of violence, not the violence itself (something modern horror movies seem to have forgotten). The key to a good Slender-series is balance. There has to be tension and payoff, a release of tension that draws people further in. The amount of each varies from series to series, but in my experience the payoff aspect is a little underdone.

[Also I wasn't aware of Slendy killing Alex. I haven't watched EMH in a while.]

now you've clarified that, yeah...that's a good idea xD I thought you were originally just saying "Oh yeah slendy should just go around killing people because lol why not"
nah, that's more of what I had in mind xD

 		What would you like to see in future Slender Media?
I know there was a topic for this months ago, but I really don't feel like indulging in some good old fashioned necroing. So, to the meat of the topic.

Vlog viewers, what would you like to see in future Vlogs? What new ideas would you like to see? What ideas seem cliched and tired?

Same to you, blog readers. How should blogs pan pan out? What should they do to stay fresh?

 		Hmm....I wouldn't mind seeing a series featuring a family and how they deal with Slendy from the parent's perspective. Maybe they have teenager children? Mind you, I've only just started checking out blogs, so there's probably one somewhere....

Slendy fiction is pretty diverse and most of the series I've read the creators have spun their own take on it, so there's not really much more I think I can ask.

It's not necroing when it's only halfway down page 2.

Merging.

 		Hi, i'm new in the forum, but i have been reading upon it for some time. I'm also, making a series. It starts off as a slender vlog and a review show, but in all reality is a creepypasta vlog with some review aspects to it. It's a horror/ comedy. The comedy stems from the human characters themselves. I don't really want to go into details of it, but i want to know whats would be cliche to do? i could say it includes Slenderman, Jeff the killer, The rake, and more. it does have the proxies aspects, child kidnapping aspects and some other aspect that i don't want to discuss.

 		I'm confused... are you trying avoid cliche's or make sure you do them?

Anyway... a couple things you might want to read:

The Slender Cliches thread:

and the forum rules regarding creators:

 		thanks for the other two links, technically the series is on outline phase of it. So whenever I created the series, which maybe end of the year or the start. You can promptly erase my post.

with camera view you would like to see? Normal POV or a cinematic view.
