That might be because he specifically asked for Vlogs. Wink


Sarcasm not appreciated.

I was specifically noting that he specifically asked for vlogs, thereby disregarding the existence of the vast majority of creative works in the Slenderverse. Very Happy

No one recommended starting with Phantasm (at least the first one)

For shame people, for shame.

"These days"?

Trust me, I know I'm fighting a losing battle here, but if someone can come up with a reason to only watch vlogs and ignore blogs that can't be boiled down to ignorant classism or "I'm lazy", I'm all ears.

Otherwise, all I want you to do is admit your obvious bias.

 		No opinion should have to be forced upon a another person, in this case, blogs and vlogs are both appreciated differently for the time they consume and the different feel of story. Some things can be put in text easier than in video, and vice versa. Some people would rather read than watch, dome the other way round, and some like both.

Tl;Dr stop fighting.

This only makes me want to switch sides and defend blogs now. sigh

Honestly, I like blogs and vlogs equally but I can see where the majority of slender man tourists will prefer vlogs: less need for investment of imagination. Simple as that.

But that doesnt make them bad or wrong, it simply defines what they prefer, and that's alright. Forums like these should maybe espouse exactly that... the end result may be less trolling (like 99% of my posts) and more actual personal opinions and discussion.

I prefer Vlogs to Blogs because reading the stuff doesn't scare me the way the vlogs do.

I watch slendy stuff to be scared. Reading something creepy is all well and good, but it doesn't do it justice to imagine it in my head if I can "see it happen".

Is that a good enough argument? I've read a few blogs. They don't do as well, but if you wish, there could suddenly be a thread for Blogs too Razz

If you don't mind me asking, do you just not read horror novels either?

 		I wouldn't be opposed to a recommended blogs thread. As long as there is a rule against recommending your own blog (because that's totally something idiots like me would do)

 		back on topic. The dead are watching, The calling of me. These are prolly my favorites slenderman vlogs going on at the moment besides the big 3. And for vlogs that arent related to slenderman you should check out , Just Acquaintances, and Who is mr tom ( he recently starting doing the web series thing rather than just trying to do a kickstart for a movie.)

Dude, if it bothers you so much, why don't you make your own thread for reccomended blogs instead of clogging up this thread with a needless argument that's already been had many times before? As a moderator of these fine forums, shouldn't you be trying to discourage off topic discussion and fighting rather than bringing up a topic in a way that has clearly and consistently shown to cause both?

As for must watch vlogs, I'm would say that a newcomer to the Mythos should watch the big three and then branch out from there into the major vlogs. As for vlogs that I recommend that aren't absolutely necessary for those still learning the core concepts that the Mythos has been built upon, Osiris Chronicles, Tulpa Effect, My Dark Journal, This is the Monkey House, and Weeping Thorns all have their own very interesting takes on the traditional Slender Man story.
