It appears we have made a ripple. Time for some EvE action, I've always wanted a good rivalry. I guess I'll have to settle for this guy though. ;)

Im not going to go through every point he made in his article, however I did find many of the things he wrote very amusing, such as saying flat out in his blog...
"As a serious note, I'd like to reiterate why I keep saying I'm an average mage. Modesty aside, I think I'm pretty decent, but I know I'm far from the best. I don't say this to avoid critique, I say this because I want people to know that the stuff I do in my videos is stuff they can do themselves. "
Excuses excuses Evertras. If you know your "pretty decent" then my comment shouldn't have bothered you.....or maybe you realize that you say all this shyt because its easier to appeal to the 90% of awful players out there, instead of the top 10% of players.
When, ever, in the history of anything I've ever said in my entire life, have I said I'm trying to appeal to the top players?
I state flat out that I'm an average mage making movies for the average player. Is there something bad about this? Does this bother you? Rub you the wrong way that I've succeeded in doing so?
Bad players learn from bad video's. Good players learn from good video's. Excellent players, however, analyze every video to its fullest, and then push themselves to the next limit to compete with the best.
Judging by your video's, forum posts, and this very very nice blog you wrote just for me, I think it's rather easy to see which of the three catagories you fall under, wouldn't you?

I really have no idea what the bejeezus you attempted to say there. Let's try this.
Category A: I am a bad player and I learn from bad videos
Category B: I am a good player and I learn from good videos
Category C: I am an excellent player and I analyze every video to its fullest
Hmm. "Judging by my videos", they analyze themselves and encourage others to analyze them so I suppose they fall under category C. "Judging by my forum posts", I like cats. As for the blog posts, that was just me thinking you were an idiot. So I guess C gets the most votes by your system, though I'd put myself under B anyway.
Make more posts imo, this is fun. :D

HortensiaDoesn't he get it? Your videos are highly rated because they are -helpful-! Very helpful, in fact, to new and inexperienced Magi. That was your target audience, and you never misrepresented yourself as doing anything other than that. *shrug* Some people...
