Guys this is very important

Okay so I’m sure you’ve all heard of the quiet place project. Well if not I am going to tell you because it has stopped me from doing serious damage more than once. 

So part one, you’ve got the comfort spot 

This gem right here is where you can literally create a 100% anonymous username and just absolutely spill your guts. Then people can read it and give you advice, and it honestly is so helpful. Because the other people on it are in the same situations as you, and they understand. You can comment and give advice on other peoples posts too, and it’s just really great. 

Number 2 is the thoughts room. 

This little beauty is similar to the comfort spot. Except instead of posting your thoughts, you type them into the box and then when you press enter they disappear and turn into stars against the blue sky. There is a whole bunch of different languages to choose from at the start, so if English is not your first language then you can probably find it here. There is the most comforting music that plays in the background as well, which is so great. 

Next we got the quiet room 

Which is so good for panic related things because it silences all of your other tabs and when you make it full screen it talks to you very calmly and then literally forces you stop for just 30 seconds and do nothing and just breathe. 

Okay, so this is my actual favourite, it’s called the dawn room

The dawn room is so great for stopping you from self harming. It begins by telling you that its going to be alright, then it asks you to write something about someone you love. After that messages from other people, just like you, appear on the screen, one after the other, and the background slowly become brighter and happier. This page has genuinely stopped me from hurting myself more times than I can count. I’m not suggesting that it will work for everyone, but it is an absolute gem. 

Finally, there is a page called It will be okay

This page runs for about 5 minutes, and it is basically a typing simulator that tries to convince you that everything is going to be alright. It is very calming, and good for lonely times.

I can honestly say that this website has done me so so much good. I appreciate it with every bit of my being.

THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT, PLEASE READ. 

Warning: Please don’t listen to the audio if you are in any way uncomfortable with sexual things. This Audio was included as part of proof in a call out post I should’ve made a while ago.

I’m sure everyone knows the story of how I met Ultima. It’s quite a funny story actually, I insulted his teeth on a livestream and that led to us getting an interview arranged. Shortly after he interviewed me and Vade, we starting talking a decent amount. It was clear he wanted to date me, and I told him that that summer I just wanted to focus on my studies, but he insisted that we give each other a chance. So I agreed, and we started going out early August. There were a few things that made me uncomfortable in the relationship, but nothing that I thought was damning. He was very insistent that we sext, even when I repeatedly told him no. However I figured it was just a thing that happened in online relationships, since I had previously never had one, and went with it. Nevertheless, we dated for about a month until I fully realized that this wasn’t attractive to me, and that he as a person wasn’t attractive to me, and I tried to break up with him.

I’ll say now that I was definitely not sinless in this relationship, and didn’t stand up for myself in times that I should’ve. I let things happen that I shouldn’t have let happen, and for that I do apologize. I’m obviously not very experienced, and he took advantage of that. When I tried to break up with him, he said a lot of things that set off the Psychologist alarm bells in my head. He told me only he would ever treat me well, and that I would never find someone who would give even half the same kind of love of respect. I’ll find the exact quote: “The worst part of all of this is that YOU are the one who will be losing the most in this situation. I will move on and you will be the one who has a higher chance of regretting the decision to just let me go.”

He then said he would forgive me for this “mistake” if I just agreed to drop it and get back together with him. I insisted that this was my decision that I wanted to make and that was that. A few days later, he contacted me saying that he wanted to get back together. I declined. A few weeks later, he again insisted that we get back together, and that even if we didn’t he asked if he could fly up to my apartment in December and have sex. I again declined. By this point I was dating hawker, and specifically told him we were together. He again asked if we wanted to get back together. I told him quite forcefully that I was dating hawker, and insisted he stop asking.

He still asked occasionally, but it wasn’t until December that I really realized what was going on. Ultima sent me an audio. Remember, this is about 2 months after me and hawker started dating, and he was fully aware of this fact. He sent me an audio fantasizing about having sex with me, completely out of the blue. (AUDIO IS INCLUDED ABOVE). REMEMBER THIS WAS AFTER I HAD REJECTED HIM AND HE KNOWS IM GOING OUT WITH SOMEONE ELSE. It was around that same time I got some more information.

Jenn came to me and asked a question about Ultima. She told me what had happened (see her blog), and I immediately told him that both the audio and the fact that he did this to Jenn really made me uncomfortable, and I didn’t want to be in contact with him further.

A bit of time passed, and more inconsistencies started to pop up. Upon asking around, both Camila and others he had interviewed had a similar experience. Then, when I confronted him about him pestering other people to date him as well, he blatantly lied to me, saying that they were the ones who had pursued him. Then things began to unfurl, and I realized he had been manipulating and pestering almost every woman he had interviewed.

I didn’t want to make this post to be a vindictive bitch, or to throw him under the bus or anything. I just really wanted to warn people about what type of person he actually is. By all means, if you like his content, watch his content, but don’t think for a second that he is the person he says he is.

I honestly was fooled by his nice guy approach. When Vade and a few more friends told me that he was doing some really questionable things, I defended him. Even now, I’m still feeling a little bad for doing this. But I also got into this mess by not saying what I needed to say when I needed to say it, so I’m going to do that now.

If you are a woman that he’s interviewed and he asks you out, think very carefully about if you want to say yes. Don’t let him pester you, and don’t let him get his way. If he sends you explicit pictures, block him and report him. 

This is also hopefully to show him not to do this in the future. I’m sincerely not trying to ruin his life, and I’m pretty torn up about doing this, but it needs to be done. 

And as a lot of you might’ve guessed, I was working with and a friend to Steph while she was in this ordeal with Ultima. You must understand that before we even interviewed him, Steph and I had a strong opinion of Ultima and of reaction-based channels in general. He didn’t ask for our permission to react to our content in the first place and so, before our interview, we obviously had a vaguely negative opinion of him, albeit him seeming like a nice enough guy. We interviewed him and I, the next day, had to go off for my charity trip to Mexico and, upon getting home, I learn of what’s been going on. I’d be lying if I said Steph sounded at all happy while it was going on. As a friend it was kind of hard to watch as everything kinda unfolded. See whenever I spoke to Steph about him, she would have the same kind of opinion, a one of “Oh, he IS a nice guy, I just ugh why does he want to date me.” And slowly but surely, she started coming closer to him because Steph does, and would freely admit to having a caregiver complex, which I believe full well Ultima manipulated and abused during his time with her.

I say it’s hard to watch this happen because it was clear she never felt okay sharing much of it with me and while I understand, relationships should always be private, I wasn’t aware they were even dating for a good while after they’d started. It made me, I’ll admit, very worried about her. Steph was in a state by the end where she was in a relationship that she was both uncomfortable and unhappy in, but couldn’t leave because, Ultima had her under his thumb, at least he thought, until Uncle Max and I gave Steph a firm faggotry ceasing talk, and hence Starhawk emerged. They’re a lot happier now, we all are, but Ultima, as you’ll see, didn’t change.

What happened next was, well, a mixture of hilarious and terrifying. His EPIC REACTION to the breakup was a scary one, to say the worst. He didn’t keep his cool, he didn’t handle it in a mature and responsible manner. And thereafter we clearly stated, Steph is dating Hawker, and she doesn’t like you, he never, fucking, learned. It’s for that reason I’d say anyone who is approached by him, or is a friend to anyone who might be approached by him, take everything he says with a grain of salt and don’t trust him. I learned that the hard way, and so did my friends, but that doesn’t mean anyone else has to.

I really didn’t want to believe. I wanted to listen and read with my own eyes before believing it, but he really is THAT disrespectful. Like seriously didn’t want to believe my eyes. Ultima has been really disrespectful to a lot of my friends which I can’t stand.

I honestly felt the need to unsubscribe I can’t support someone that acts this way, or that treats other people tje way he does. I’m completly disgusted and legitimately bothered by all this information. And of course I will raise awareness by rebloging this, it has to stop.

Well time to reveal my history here…
I’ve met Ultima in one of his videos. I commented in one of them to be specific.

Well I was happy that a Youtuber noticed me and all. Then we started to chat on skype. Well everything was good and all until he started talking “adult things” to me. That was last year. I was 18 that moment. I’m 19 now.

I was confused by a Youtube would talk such things to me but I told him to not fo that. Time passed and he asked me to go out and I told him the same thing @starbotdubs said. I just want to finish my education and studies and be professional. But kept insisting about it and he even told me about how much he loved talking about sex and all…

Well around August, I tried to talk to him and find out why he was talking such dirty things to me and he just ignored me and blocked me from skype. Then I remembered that he was on my twitter as a follower, and then I remembeted that I had a picture of myself in bikiny when I was participating as a model back on 2014. Then I went fast posible and erased it, so he can’t see it or… (I don’t know if I was late).

Anyway I’ve tried to message him on twitter and he got mad at me and said this:
“I don’t care anymore, just don’t talk to me”
“I wanted to be with you, but you’re never online or scared of me”

I’ve said the last thing to him and it was:

“Listen to me, let’s pretend that we never existed for each other or anything of that”

“You’re just like all the other men, only wanting sex, not love. You should be ashamed of yourself”
“You were only using me for your sex crap and I’m not into that, So get lost.”

He said:
“Very well, It was not nice meeting you. Bye”

And he blocked me from there. In that instant I blocked him from there as well and from my G+ account. He deleted my comments from his videos and I unsubbed from him. Whenever I’ve heard about him in a Undertale video, I insanely start screaming of anger of what he did to me.

I didn’t warned this to @jakei95 or @camilaart cause I was scared if they said I was crazy or anything. And because they are/were friends with him. I was scared of making two of my favorite UT artists hate me for it… So yeah… Looks like he’s like that to every woman he encountered.

So please… If you’re a woman and if he talks to you, be careful. Just try to be mature enough to talk to a person like him.

I’m really sorry for all of this…

An Important PSA

invertedfate:

Sigh. I really did not want to have to resort to this, but this has been a problem in the fandom overall for far too long. What is this problem? Music theft.

Some of you may know that I have repeatedly asked people NOT to upload my songs to youtube, yet despite this, it is a recurring problem, and I am not alone. My fellow composers LucasPucas, Jimmythebassist, Jamangar, ZacharyChang, among others, repeatedly have their songs taken without consent by Youtubers such as Herobrine TV, Yeah, Outershift Chara, TheYazzer, TylerNess, Horse Burgers YT, Oka C-Fox, FreddyGaming CH, CrazyArtPhoenix, The DVLPR, and others. I will add to this list as needed.

Allow me to make one thing clear: None of us are okay with this. I speak with these composers on a regular basis, both in the IF and Storyshift Discords, and we are all sick of this.

You may think it is harmless. You may even think this is exposure for our work, but here’s the thing: these people are getting traffic and subscribers for content they did not create, and sometimes they don’t even credit! Or worse yet, rename the tracks and try to parade them as works for AUs the original composers do not even like.

Even worse, they ignore blatant requests not to take our content. For example, my Soundcloud profile states, and I quote:

“**IMPORTANT**: People have been uploading my songs to their youtube
accounts without my permission. Please do not do this. I know a lot of
my stuff isn’t up there yet, but I do plan to bring it over in time. If
you want to use my songs for any reason, I’d like credit, and asking
permission is preferred.“

Never mind all the descriptions where I also reiterate that I do not want reuploads. Because the fact of the matter is, reuploads take traffic away from the original creator, and when people don’t link back or hide the credit under lengthy descriptions, it leads people to believe that the uploader is the composer, when all they did was lazily take someone else’s work and slap it into a video editor.

I will take a moment to note that Umbra Extensions is actually one of the few music channels on Youtube that not only asks permission, but does his best to give credit where due. If more people were like Umbra Extensions, I would not be making this post.

But the actual focus of my PSA is TheYazzer, who has not only taken a great deal of my Inverted Fate music and that of others, but he has monetized it. See for yourself:

But you wanna know the kicker? I had actually commented and asked him to remove the video…

image

And for a while, it seemed like he did… only for him to put it back up behind my back. Others have noticed this, and commented accordingly. Some friends have provided screencaps here and here, in case the uploader decides to “hide the evidence,” as it were. I would link the video itself, but since this chap decided he could make money off of my work, I don’t want to give him more fodder.

I have submitted a copyright claim, and I will continue to do this for any videos that take my content without consent. However, the fact that I even have to go this far represents a huge problem in the Undertale music community. Musicians are not being treated with the respect they deserve.People assume that they can just snatch music, slap it together as a video compilation, and reap the spoils.

This has to stop. I doubt it will, but if spreading this message can make even the slightest difference, then I am sure as hell gonna try. So please, if you enjoy our music, please reblog. It will help us all out tremendously.

Thank you for your time. Your regularly scheduled IF content will return shortly

PS. I am still okay with use of my music in fandubs if credit is given. It is the shameless stealing that I do not allow.

Hey, can I ask y’all a question?

theundergames:

So, Colors left her laptop at school and can’t host the UnderGames this week.

I was considering hosting it myself, and having @shinydiamondblog cohost. It would be more boring than usual, and we wouldn’t have the recording afterward or… really, most sorts of records. I’d still post updates every round, but not as well or in the same way as Colors.

So, should I go with this plan or just not do UG this week?

(If Shiny doesn’t want to play, we can get someone else)

–Omega

I’m off this weekend. I could probably do it.

@lunarcassiopeia, this is a message from the mod of this blog. I know you’re going through a lot at the moment, and you have been for a long time now. I can see you have a plan for how to deal with things, and I’m so glad there might be an opportunity for things to get better for you, but I still want to say this: you’re loved. By the people who have sent you messages, by the people who have tried to help, by the person who offered to take you in, by everyone who sees your posts and are worried, and by me. We love you, and we’ll be here for you, no matter what ends up happening, because you deserve it. You deserve love.
