How can I improve upon my Slender Man ARG?

Yes, I am aware I posted my series before and that it's generally frowned upon here, but I'm sick of this self-advertising crap. I have already been receiving tips from a pretty popular Slenderman series called Darkharvest00, and I want tips from y'all, the actual people that view the Slender Man series'.

Here's my channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/goomba771

Now, I know I'm most likely attracting trolls, especially people who still hold grudges towards me from the Slender Nation, and I honestly don't care what you have to say if you're trolling, however, if you'd like to give me advice that isn't "Kill yourself" or "Just stop", I'll be open minded about what you have to say, please be honest.

Now I haven't seen your series, but general advice for an arg, make puzzles that have decent rewards. What I have done is make locked files, and put the password somewhere in the video. The file itself would hold a hefty amount of backstory and references to things, possibly introducing new characters and foreshadowing future videos. Viewers that want to have the deep story will be dedicated Enough to find this. and after that, people usually post the answer or the file so that lazy latecomers won't have any trouble.

This is pretty smart.

Why did you make your own facebook group?

Chris Hammarberg aka the main character from Darkharvest00 actually suggested this to me, it's mainly for my fans that actually want to interact and stuff.

Well first off, I can't tell when your actual series begins because it seems like there are unrelated videos on your channel (boo). What video starts the series?

I just sat and watched a bunch of your videos from where I (assume?) the actual Slenderman stuff starts, and I honestly have no freaking clue what's going on. Maybe you should try making it so people can hear you (and not ear-splitting distortion. My god, man.) more than .9% of the time?

Also, I like your trampoline.

It's not "frowned upon." It's expressly forbidden.

Perhaps the reason you have grudges hanging over from other boards is because you can't respect the rules of the boards you visit.

If you want a proper trailhead send me an apology, and a proper request, and I will post it for you.

Oh, and it might be a good idea to include the requested apology for your bought of sock-puppeteering from earlier this month. I have a long memory.
