The reason Newgrounds has such an appeal is that it's a place where anyone can upload their material. However, unlike Youtube, the community on Newgrounds is small enough that people can actually get recognition on Newgrounds, and gain some sort of a following. From there, they have fans and people that know them and want to see their work, so the appeal of Newgrounds is lost, and they're ready to move onto a bigger audience and a bigger opportunity for making money; Youtube.

To be fair there's much of that not just against Egoraptor but against lots of people. There are people with nothing better to do than to latch on to some particular user(s) just to stalk them around and trash talk them.

you know, i remember when he was here, people were hating him for being popular, calling him shitty and overrated
overrated? maybe that was true, but shitty? fuck no i love watching his stuff his animation is awesome.

but yeah, we seem to have this idea that the content creators owe us something, and that if something is popular it automatically makes it bad, we're toxic and to be honest we're really douchey a lot of the time. arin don't owe us shit, and i'm not saying money wasn't /a/ reason for him leaving us, but think about it, if we hadn't pissed him off so much, he'd probably still release the occasional animation over here, he wouldn't badmouth us occasionally on game grumps and here's a thought, maybe he wouldn't have left.

so basically, instead of putting all the blame on youtube money, we should look at ourselves as well, because it really is our fault, at least in part.

Why did you bring up stats?
Because the person who made this thread is obsessed with Egoraptor.

But you said Egoraptor wouldn't care about being a stat whore, what does OP's obsession have to do with Egoraptor's stats?

It's a shame that some of the more active and vocal members of Newgrounds tend to be asshats.

Plus, Egoraptor is also working a lot on Game Grumps, which is something I couldn't think should be shown on NG.

You are so weird.
And how can you be a powerful enemy? I'm pretty sure you'll leave Newgrounds in less than a week like most new users.

Because he has more fans than anyone on the entire website and the thing is, he realized that no matter what he did, people would love him and no one would be able to surpass his popularity on this website. Yeah, I'm pretty mad about this too.

There is no possible way that Egoraptor said that he hates me. There is no evidence of a PM that was send to you made by Egoraptor. In fact, Egoraptor barely goes on Newgrounds nowadays. He's just making videos on his Game Grumps show. Also, how the hell does he even know you?

they call me the co-creator of Game Grumplings in some circles, but I wouldn't expect a baby newbaby baby like you to know that ! You thought i wouldn't have proof that egoraptor hates you but here it is!
