I know it hasn't been a week since I shut my channel down, I was talking to some close friends of mine, about what I did, and why, and we talked about the whole deal, and I have come to realize, that I fucked up.

I can also hear it now. I TOLD YOU SO, I FUCKING TOLD YOU, lol, your right, you are exactly right, and I was a dumb fuck from the beginning.

I can't really make any excuses to why I shut my channel down, I could say that it was because I had a lot of stress, and my mind was overloaded with a lot of things, other projects that were non gaming, and offline stuff. I just wasn't thinking.

Plus I think I pushed myself to do reviews way to hard. It was suppose to be fun, and not a priority. Hell I had 15 review scripts done, and all I needed to do was record footage, and throw it together. Why I did that, I don't know, it was stupid, really fucking stupid.

So, I owe everyone an apology, pure and simple, I mean I had close to 3700 subscribers, and I threw that all away. That took 3 years to get. I know a lot of people are pissed off, and hate my guts right now, and I totally agree, if I was in your shoes I would feel the same way.

I have been debating the day or so, on what I am going to do. I could just leave it at this, and move on, or I can create another new account, and start from scratch, and start all over again. I know some will want that, and I know some will hate that, I haven't come to a 100% conclusion on this yet.

If I do come back, of course I am going to have to make a video similar to this blog, for those that don't follow me on Facebook, and all the gaming forums/sites I post at, and I am not expecting all to forgive me, I am only human, and we all make mistakes, and this time I made a real stupid one."

As for my old reviews and videos, before anyone asks, those are gone, completely gone. I didn't save them for backups, so it will be a completely fresh start. As for when I will release videos. It will be when I see fit, it might be every week, every 2 weeks, maybe a couple a week, it all depends. I want to make it fun again, that is the point of this, having fun.

That is, if I decide to create a new account. I need to think about this.

Once again, I apologize for this dumb fuck move. I don't expect everyone to forgive.

Thanks,

Heavy Metal Gamer

    It's ok. Everyone makes mistakes, especially when under pressure and stress. I'm sure that your fans will forgive you and continue to follow you. I guess all you can do is dust yourself off and learn from this. I'm willing to wait for a new review if it means that you have to take longer to make one. People make mistakes, and others should realize that. At least you admitted that you messed up. Just go on from there. Thanks for entertaining me with your videos, and I'll keep watching them when you come back.

    Believe it or not, you're not the first person to do something crazy when you were stressed out. Shit happens.

    Something to keep in mind is that you'll always have a handful of people who disagree with whatever you put out. As long as your fans outnumbers the haters it's still worth doing. Take anything negative you hear as a recommendation. If you can make something of it, do so. Otherwise just feel like your work simply doesn't fit their taste. Of course if you're not having fun doing any of that, it probably is time to either stop or change.

    Anywho, no hate on this end. It's your stuff and you're free to do whatever you want with it. If you find a way to enjoy doing something again, I'll be there to watch it once it goes up here. I always enjoyed your video reviews and LPs. If not, good luck on your future endeavors and all that offline stress stuff.
