I don't think this was meant to be disrespectful to the fans, think of it as a warning.

Okay, so it's obvious that Glenn still has the youtube accounts of Tachyon, 10033 and OpAphid. I think he did a quick little tweak to show us that he is still here, and I think to show us that he is still dedicated to this thing. If it's a conclusive farewell, I blame the Creators. This has been in their hands for a months and all we get is awkward silence on the matter. At this point, at least these profile updates are a reminder that someone out there cares about OpAphid and might be able to do something about it!

So if you are going to be mad, bitter, angry and annoyed... direct it at the right place. No more silence Creators, we ALL deserve better than this.

I have to say that I'm pretty "meh" about the whole thing. I just wish we'd hear from them one way or another as to what is going on. If Op is truly dead, then at least have the courtesy to tell us so, not just leave us twisting in the wind...

I agree. I'm pretty pissed, but not at Glenn. I'm pissed at the Creators. And you can all read my very lengthy opinion in trainer's thread in the Concerns and Complaints section.

I'm depressed now. I'm going to eat chocolate.

I cannot take credit for the thread. It is Apo's. I just added the info I picked up from the radio show and a new link.

Aaaaaugh I was so excited when the CiW thing was going on because I though the videos were SO cool (especially the first one) and the whole thing with Frank was interesting, then *poof* Cassie went away.

So I stayed away from the ARGs because the Cassie thing seriously bummed me out. I kept hearing about OPAphid but I didn't bother getting into her videos or Tachyon's until right before Tachyon outed Gemma as working for the Order. Man, those were awesome videos. So then I was all "EEE OMG TACHYON IS AWESOME" and of course so was OPAphid and now I really really miss their videos.

Really really.

I think the Creators have a great story and great characters with Bree, Daniel, Jonas, and (now) Alex. But Glenn makes videos that make me go "!!!!! DUUUUUUUUUDE THAT'S EFFIN' COOL" after I watch them. They're awesome. And I really don't want a profile update to be the last we hear from OPAphid, Tachyon, and Brother. They deserve more than that, and we do too.

/end speech

Plus I miss Tachyon's theme music. :p

If Glenn still controls these accounts, it may just be his only way of saying "I'm sorry, guys, but it's over." I'm sure that there are lawyers advising him not to say anything at all, just as there are lawyers advising The Creators to not say anything at all, and this may be all he could manage without any serious legal ramifications. If anyone is to blame for the death of this ARG, it's the lawyers.

Well, I don't care what happened, I'm not riding someone's cock so I'll say it. I don't care who agrees and who doesn't. The CiW lines on the account is a blatant twist of a knife, as someone else puts it. If he's so great, he wouldn't slap his fans in the face and he wouldn't antagonize the rest who were burned by those very lines in the beginning. I don't care who is ultimately at fault, but that was immature...and I'll not stand by and continuously be blinded by things someone once did that were good if their present behavior behooves it. Not classy, San Diego. Flaming of me to commence in 3, 2, 1...

I'll buffer you some. It was very well said.

Glenn was a human being he made a mistake, he is now dealing with the consequences of that mistake. Right now the lawyers have taken over. The creators are silent because they have been advised to be silent not that they dont care. If I were Glenn's lawyer and found out he had done anything related to LG15, I wouldn't be very happy. I am sure he left the messages if the creators did not. Hacking into 3 accounts simultaniously is unlikely.
Glenn may care for the fans, or he may just be bitter because he still thinks he did nothing wrong.

Please check the blame you throw. Ive said it once ive said it again Glenn is the only one to hold the blame for what he did. What he did, wether you think it wrong or not, started this. He did not have to be involved in questionable behavior but he did it anyway welcomeing those consequences.

If he did do this out of spite. Then you can see that he is indeed a man not some demigod who is to be worshiped. It seems almost fanatical at times. His videos were good, I enjoyed watching them but I keep in mind that no one is perfect and fanaticism serves no one.

I am still an outsider in this. I came after OpAphid petered out on its own and I was here for the Glenn post explosion. I may be completely wrong but I will stand by my opinion.

Everyone, lets remember, the topic of this thread is profile updates. Please, let's not turn this into another thread to try Glenn and the Creators without any facts.

That being said,

Wow! Interesting find, Kelly! Hmmmmmm......

I'd like to mirror Luminous and advise everyone that the point of this thread is to talk about the updates in the profiles and nothing else. All this blame talk has been hashed out over and over again and serves no purpose whatsoever. Especially since those casting the blame know nothing more than anyone else (no matter what they'd like to believe.) Let's keep the discussion on topic please and stop casting stones.

Look I did save you the flames Kasdeja.

I did read luminous' statement, since I have that ability, didn't really need it rehashed. Much of my previous post is refering to the purpose of the update which I belive is part of the debate here. If you read your own post it seems you are no more on topic. I'll gladly take the blame for this tangent if it is the end of it.

Look, if people want to blindly cast stones at the creators then don't get miffed if some of us see actions as actions. No stones cast by me, but if Glenn made the update then what is updated IS his and such. So, that's the jist, not everyone is interested in dredging the I love Glenn/I hate Glenn debate.

End of this leg of discussion.

seeing for the past little while we've been trying to find out if there is any more activity anywheres else on the net with profiles that are linked to opaphid characters, I'm going to say this discussion was long done before the re-hashin of it.

So...honestly...and go hunting with us. Please.

Hi, everyone!

Here's a helpful reminder that everyone should check the Rules and Regulations that cover posting in this area of the forum. This game-related discussion topic is about recent OpAphid character profile updates. I do not point at anyone here in particular when I post this reminder, except perhaps people like Luminous and Luv2Luvem, who have also posted similar reminders to remain on topic.

Thanks!
