All I do all day is make cartoons in various programs. Comedic animations, parodies of movies and video games. EGO FI.

An apology to the fans who were offended by the last post

Posted by Bobert-Rob - October 11th, 2008


Sorry bout that, guys. Really. I didn't mean to make you fans feel insignificant with that post, I just set my personal expectations of myself too high. I mean, look at "Half Beard" and "Not-The-FFXII". Those two did awesome and I miss that. I'm not at the level of recognition I wish I was and I'm frustrated every time I'm reminded of that fact.

Still, though, I shouldn't have taken it out on you guys. So again, my apologies. You guys are awesome and I want you to know that. I just suck sometimes. I hope to make it up to you guys soon with a fully animated preview of the scene I'm working on from episode 6. I'll probably do that next week so I can make a front page post about it. You know, one that isn't stupid. But for now, I gotta get back to updating my website.

Later.

*achoo*

Everyone gotta rant sometime ;)

I just wish I had something HAPPY to rant about once in awhile, heh.

I'm very offended :)
Upset I am!

SORRY ABOUT THAT.
:(((((((((((((((((((((((
*takes it super seriously*

dont worry about it we all go through a rough patch now and then just dont give up you have to many people looking up to you like ME!!

I'll do my best to keep moving forward.

hate how people get upset over ranting.. oh well

It happens.

I read your previous post yesterday and I was just coming to comment on it. My comment was gonna say: "You made a fool of yourself". But since you apologized, I'm not gonna say that. Wait...

Well, I did, so if you still want to, you're more than welcome to. Rob does dumb shit sometimes. Hell, half of the cartoons I put myself in are proof of that, heh. Blah blah blah.

No worries, we all have our problems. but in all seriousness your stuff is Defiantly some of the funniest shit Ive ever watched. keep it up. ^_^

I thought it was pretty funny.

Heinous Anus Zone That is. I actually thought it would get front page.

But hey we all gotta rant. I do it a lot too actually. Any dang way hope evrything goes as planned.

Ditto.

you live in america and u write stuff on the internet if people are offended by that then they can just get away by one click. you have nothing to apologize about

Meh, some fans took it as a "HE SEES US AS WORTHLESS, BLAH", and I wanted to clear the air about that. I don't want to come across as ungrateful is all.

u dun have to apoligise >=( u have all the rights to bitch about us >=(((((( lol and the heinous anus zone its awesome, maybe u should wait a little more, who knows, maybe it will be in frontpage later :o, keep the good work

I doubt it, if it hasn't already it won't. But it's cool, really. I just needed to put my news section on my website so I can complain on there. You know, where hardly anyone will read it. Yes, yes indeed.

their's only 13 year olds and adult porn watchers on newgrounds they don't care about original content..

amen to the last post :( I used to be pretty into Newgrounds for a while but its just full of stupid shit now, the admins are letting idiots run wild and quality work like yours is getting marginalized. Honestly the only reason I come here is to check when you or a very small handful of others release something new.

My advice, which granted I'm an anonymous person on the internet, is to put yourself out there to a broader community than just Newgrounds. Shop around to some of the other commercial sites or advertisers, maybe some kind of art company would be interested in your stuff, who knows.

I know that's easier said than done, but your work really is quality. I hope you get the success you deserve.

It'll happen eventually. I still like the freedom I get here, but it is a little annoying when I make something I'm proud of and it's more or less ignored. It happens, though. Just gotta suck it up and try again sometimes.

i know how u felt,but now everything is allright?^^
do u have now blue hair?it looks great^^

Nope, not at all. That's a drawing based on how I looked in highschool, actually. Something like that.

Oh, and yeah, everything's decent now, I think. I unno.

sneeze

*napkin*

That's not true!
You have alot more than 10 fans.
Just look at the number of comments!

Make me.

You sure didn't offend me. You're just being honest. When you put a lot of work into something it's makes perfect sense to feel that way. Anywayz, I should add you to my favorites so I can check your stuff more. Some bug on my account or something hinders me from adding authors at the moment. Regardless, I'll keep an eye out.

Hey, I've been a big fan of your series. I love every single episode. And I understand that something you work hard on isn't appreciated as much as you'd expect it to be. I'm an artist myself, working solely with pen and paper (and that's not an understatement or whatever... I literally draw with a pen and paper). And everytime I complete an epic masterpiece (in my mind), I feel underappreciated. I also administrate a server on an online game (look for Tremulous) and I feel like my presence is insignificant. And wow... I'm totally using this space to rant about myself.
Anyway, I appreciate the flashes. And it sucks that your flash was unexpectingly delayed. I know I'd love it if you continued to work on it. I'll try posting a new picture... eventually.

It can be tough sometimes, I guess. Persist and you may make it. Of course, maybe you won't... maybe I won't. That's reality, nothing's guaranteed. Gotta at least make the effort, because you can't feel bad about it if you tried, right? Right.

*cough*

We Still Love You Rob.

Damn!

Rob, if you want more exposure for your work, you really should post it wherever possible, you post your stuff on youtube, deviantart, and newgrounds, right? Well, i have on suggestion that may help!

post your videos on: <a href="http://www.revver.com">http://www.revver.com</a>

Basicly, it's like youtube, but you get paid for your videos with ad revenue, 50% goes to you, 50% goes to revver. But befor i start sounding like an advertisement, I should probly mention that it has bugs, mainly with the video uploader and payment system. Also, if you use copywritten music, your video wont be accepted (unless it a parody, so not the final fantasy will do fine :)). So far I made only 8 bucks, but that's because my videos utterly blow. However you have a chance, your animations are great, and can quite possibly be featured on the front page!

But remember, revver is way less popular then youtube, that means less competition, but less viewers. but viewers are viewers, and money is money, take as much as you can! I really suggest you at least check it out. And try to put your videos wherever possible, the more exposure the better!

Meh, I might. Putting animations on too many sites'll eat up more time, so I won't jump on it right away. Perhaps later, though.
