MCM London
I will not be attending MCM London this weekend. I probably should've posted that earlier. Blah. I don't know if I'll be attending in the spring again either. I would love to do so, but the airplane expenses are just so astronomical I don't know if I will be able to do so. I'm still paying for when I attended last year...

Activity
Sorry my activity here on DA has been so lag lately. I don't know what it is but I just don't have the energy to work on much anymore outside my two regular jobs.

About Groups
I don't like joining groups, so please don't suggest I join any.

Also, If you're part of one of those "promote artists" or "art everything" general groups, please stop recommending everything I post. I really don't want the attention. They're probably spam bots, but on the off chance they're not... please leave me alone and stop recommending my stuff every time I post. I don't want my art in your groups, so stop asking.

On the Election
Please vote. Even if you hate the candidates, or think your vote won't matter... just please vote. This is going to be a very important election and when people tell me they're not gonna vote, it just bothers me so much. I don't care if you're conservative, liberal, green party, whatever... just... vote please.

KAG
Seems a lot of people still don't know what KAG is, even though I've made several videos, journals, and even some fanart. KAG is a 2-D sidescrolling tower defense game. It's FREE and is cross platform (Mac, PC, Linux). There are 2 game modes: Capture the Flag and Death Battle (with a 3rd Zombie rush mode unlocked for people who buy the game). There are a ton of dedicated servers already up and running and anyone can join them, free or premium. It's a lot of fun and... dudes... it's FREE. What more could you want?

Livestream
I've been thinking about doing another livestream for a while now. I've been very out of touch with my fans, but I'm hesetant to jump right back into doing full blown livestream sessions. The last time I did one (almost a year ago now) I got trolled really bad. It was so much that I wasn't able to block them faster than they were joining up and spamming my chat box. That's discouraged me from trying again because... what's the point? Why bother trying to interact with your fans if you're just gonna get trolled for it? I've thought about disabling chat, or making it members only but... I dunno.

If anyone has any suggestions I'm open to it. I need to get back into making art more regularly but I'm noticing I'm becoming less and less interested in doing so out of fear of failure.

That's about it.

FYI I would troll the shit out of your livestream if it were convenient for me. You're a low talent hack manchild that should have given up the first time people called you out on being an insufferable douche.

I'm copy pasting your name and comment to anyone who defends such comments as 'critique'. Also, you likely will be banned soon. Good day.

I've seen all the debates to try and become well-informed of the election. I can't vote, yet but I wanna know what's going on. I do agree that people should vote. It's an incredible priority that some countries still don't have, and our founding fathers would have wanted us to vote.

Learn to enjoy the trolls
play with them
have fun

they can't hurt you, so why not take advantage of it?

I'd suggest you listen to Wreckless Media Radio [link] and Red Bar Radio [link] for inspiration on how to deal with them
Both shows are run by trolls, but are funny (and at times even insightful) enough to keep you listening, and so you can slowly build-up some thicker skin

even so trolls are just a pain that gets old. like when someone has a witty comment or a question, it flies by in a second or two. and for a serious stream, they flood it with hate, disgusting content, and unmentionable links.

well, if they post so fast you can't react to them, then he does not have to reply to them

I do think that everyone should vote, but let's face it, there's no right choice
Both the Democrats and Republicans are corrupt pawns of the American corporations that are currently attempting to strip the people of the world of their civil rights, and the American election system is built in such a manner that any attempt at supporting a third party will only result in you giving more power to the same two parties

America is boned!
