He's everywhere now. So, I'm a long time user of Gaiaonline. And, guess what they just got.

That's right, a marble Hornets Item.
Here instead of the MH forum because, well, it seemed to fit more.

Not everyone finds that site, erm...Good. I being one of those who used to go on it, and grew out of it.

I got roped into part of their SCAS. And you can't deny the size of their user base.

No I can't. But hey're known for bastardizing other things. The SCP has an interesting asticle on them and the phenomenom.

I think the exposure's awesome, but... Troy and them are getting compensated for their idea, right?

Why should they be? The slenderman, and marble hornets, mythos has becoming something far larger than only their world.

Because technically they created the Masked Man, which is what the item looks like.

GAIA WHY? NO. It was bad enough when they rolled out the LOLcat items. -_-
And yes, Troy and the MH team should be getting monetary compensation for this. Why. Because it's not a Slenderman item, its a Masky mask. Masky is not part of the original Slenderman myth, he's an original character created by the MH team FOR MH ONLY.
I would seriously count this as theft.

They've ripped off countless other things, what makes this, really, any different. They just name them different things so they can't be sued.
The MH gang won't see a dime from this, I can be certain. Sorry :/
I only go on Gaia, now, as a meet up with my cosplay group.
