Now, as you've all stated loud and clear: he obviously aint good with criticism, so could yall perhaps tone it down a bit with all the criticism?

Not trying to start an argument or anything but that's kind of why we're here, to provide our thoughts on the series as well as speculate and whatnot. It was a new start up so of course it was going to get a lot of criticism and if he thought it wouldn't then he obviously wasn't even ready to begin making a series.

This is the internet, we're all assholes on some level so if you're catering to an internet audience you're subject to said assholes. That goes to all creators, I don't know one series that hasn't been called a "rip-off" or was claimed to have "terrible editing" or something along those lines. If you're not ready for people to literally tear your series apart piece by piece and analyze it so thoroughly it would make your head spin, and then post exactly what they think about it (ESPECIALLY on uF), you're not ready to be making a series. Criticism does happen, nothing you can do but ignore it or incorporate it, throwing a temper tantrum accomplishes none of this and makes you look silly on the internet (Which we all know is a fate worse than death Rolling Eyes

Duly noted: Everyone on the internet is an asshole and it's not your fault and he is not tough enough to make a slenderman vlog. Got it. He seems to agree on all accounts (except he seems to think it's your fault you're assholes?) and stopped making his vlog. To me, that seems like a good time to cut him some slack. Or does that go against the asshole rule?

Well, there is no "asshole rule", just the fact that everyone on the internet has the capability to be an asshole. I for one am not going to take jabs at this creator anymore because I really don't care that much. But do realize that if he didn't take down those videos, he would have received A LOT more criticism than the very light things posted in this thread. Go ahead and look at the PorcelainSpiders thread (which I did contribute to in a nasty way I will admit, but that just further proves my point) because it is a prime example of people who can take the WORST type of criticism and still make their series even though the majority of us still believe that particular series is a MH shot for shot rip-off (even though it's apparently not but still I just don't really care about the "differences", I really just can't be bothered sorry...). If a gender-swapped MH spinoff can take that kind of heat and keep going, why can't this guy keep going or at least claim in a nicer way that he agrees with the criticism. You either agree with the critics or say "fuck all of you" and keep making the series, he can't just stand in the middle and be all sad and claim it's our fault that a creator stopped what they were doing (which is what he did). He can't have his cake and eat it too.
