Also, I have a separate vlog, and I'm not telling people that I'm the creator. And the reason is because if people know that I'm the creator, they won't bother watching it because they'll know that the creator is below the age of fifteen. And so far, the one where I don't have any appearance is doing much better than the one where I actually make an appearance. I'm not trying to make people anxious to know what it is, just trying to prove a point. I'll tell everyone that it's me soon.


That's a really interesting observation. It seems accurate, given the kind of attitude I'm sure we've all seen around forums dedicated to this kind of stuff - as well as among many series creators themselves.

I guess it's probably pretty obvious at this point that series created by younger people are met with a lot more skepticism right up front, but I haven't heard many people actually talk about the reasons behind this and why they could be harmful.

With the news of the Marble Hornets movie coming out, a lot of the creators and hardcore fans of the mythos seemed to have freaked out a bit... Mostly due to the anticipation of more and more "low-quality" (to put it nicely) series and fans hopping on the bandwagon once the movie premieres. We saw this kind of thing happen with the release of Slender, and I'm guessing we'll see it again with Slender: The Arrival.

It's an understandable fear. But I think everyone's going to have to accept it; there's nothing anyone can do to stop it, right? So, I think it'd be beneficial for everyone to try and keep a more open mind when it comes to younger series, and take the less-informed fans and rip-offs in stride.

I would have to say the vlogs that have no explanation for their names.

I think it works to the advantage, actually. I'll example my own series for this, "mmzavp" is the channel name. In reality, it stands for something that nobody will ever figure out. It doesn't need explaining because its just a detail unnecessary to advance the plot. We went by "One Bad Dream" instead as a name.

Or in my case, I came up with a reason for the title after, like, six months of shooting the damn thing.

On the topic of bad series, I once made a post that a proxy account was so bad that they might as well have used distorted PewDiePie footage with the chicken dance playing and calling the protagonist a chicken a la Tommy Wiseau... and some troll just turned it into a reality. I'm not sure how I feel about this.

I remember hating Apple Of Our Eye back when it was first coming out. I haven't really caught up with it since then, sadly.

I recommend catching up with it, even though it's dead at this point.
