Does the word "frostbite" mean anything to you? Because that's what you get if you stay out in those conditions for longer than a few minutes. Btw, in case you didn't know, it can take several HOURS to film just one scene and that's when it's done by professionals.


Yes it does, actually. And frostbite can be easily overcome by - gasp - wearing warm clothing to prevent the cold from having too much of an effect on the skin. All they'd have to do is wear warmer clothing in the entry.

Again, it was a damned suggestion. If you don't like the suggestion, I'm more than thrilled that you let me know, as "boldly" as you did. But to harp on it because you didn't like it that much is ridiculous.

Personally, I feel like a rain entry would be cool, but obviously the conditions wouldn't account for that. Still, as beforementioned, it would be cool, and if they could, they should.

The fact that I have to word it in a way that doesn't get you pissy is stupid, and I won't do that. I'd say you should get over the fact that I made a suggestion.

I'm all for that "getting along" thing, by the way. I did just come here to suggest something after all; It's not hard to respond to something without coming off as a douche. Douchery (for the most part) is what the Rage Thread is for.

It's still dangerous for even you. You can stop with your idiotic schemes to get the entry out. They are not risking life and limb for you or anyone else. Just deal with it.

Maybe I'm missing something here, but I usually spend 5 months every year below freezing, and it's normal for me to walk for 3 consecutive hours almost every day in January, when it's about 5-10° Fahrenheit. If I recall correctly, the weather forecast in Alabama talks about 30-40° Fahrenheit.

Zarggg, is it OK to express oneself like that?

The funny part is, we are "dealing with it". I think you need to look up what a "suggestion" is, because that's something that you obviously don't get. Again, you're acting like we're making them do stuff, when all we're actually doing is suggesting things that could be a possibility, whether you consider them to be or not.

They're not "idiotic schemes", and unlike some of the impatient people on some of these threads, I don't mind waiting another month or more for the entry to come out, if need be. Because Marble Hornets isn't the only web series/series in general that I watch. I have plenty of other things to keep me occupied.

I was noting the long time since the last entry, and suggesting a way around the weather, be it necessarily "intelligent" in your eyes or not.

That's all. Drop it.

To everyone bitching at me because I pointed out just how fucking stupid a suggestion of "just film it in the rain" is in this situation. The rain that is falling IS FREEZING RAIN. It will fuck up equipment, the roads, and anyone caught out side in it. So STFU.

To each their own, I guess.

If I may make a suggestion, certain people need to take a step back from their computers before making a big deal over something that, A, is trivial and stupid, and B, should not be taken as personally as it did.

This is the internet.
God forbid we have our own points to make.

EDIT: To whom it may concern, I got you a gift. Open it.

Damn dude, lighten up on the teenage angst. You've obviously got some anger issues you need to sort out. Because in the real world, there's actual morons all over the place. God forbid somebody makes a suggestion that you do not agree with. I understand and agree with it not being possible, but you don't need to chew people out about it. They weren't whining and saying "omg dude film in the rain ffs!"

You should take a socializing course, because the way you're expressing your views just makes you look like an arrogant ass, and with no foundation to be one. That or you're just a sociopath.


On topic of MH itself, I'm getting stoked to see what happens next, and completely understand the delays. Would like to point out that I do agree with the whole "don't post on Twitter until the Entry is in editing phases". Not that I'm bitching about the length of time it takes for them to release an entry (hell, take a year if thats how long it takes to whip up a really good entry) but I do feel mislead, and it kinda takes me out of the "real world" experience.

Just a suggestion for the MH gang, if they ever happen to read this. I think it helps with the immersion and makes it seem... less fictitious if it feels like it's more in "real time".

To each their own though, of course. I'll wait as long as it takes them to get entries done, and appreciate the time they put into it Cool

THANK YOU!
Was that so hard!?
Agreeing and disagreeing.
Not losing your head over a suggestion.
Thank you.

Interesting.

On that note, I'll stop taking up MH's Twitter thread with responses to someone that obviously has a thick skull. Any other posts I make will be made regarding the Twitter. Ya know. What this thread is for?

I see some people here are experiencing PMS.

And once again I thought there was a new tweet. Is it too hard to post on the rage thread? : (
