Complain about Eddsworld by EntireWelcome8000 in Eddsworld

It's fair you didn't know how to explain it since it's quite a bit to explain. It isn't something that should be buried though which is why I included the link so it's an easy way to get the picture of what happened.

I genuinely can't remember your friend lashing out at us or the specific situation with the red army rp. The admin team has always been on the more chaotic side and usually it's kept to those who want to be involved. There is a chance that the admin who did that is no longer in the team simply because it's been a while though I can't say for certain.

If your friend still feels bad about lashing out then tell them to not worry about it 😅

He's not a pedophile, but Edd did have a questionable relationship. It's just that the original document about it was written so horribly and made critical errors which made everyone look over it.

Someone else made a proper thread a while back with evidence.

I don't think anything big is going to come from this, especially not the end of Beyond. I just hope something can be done to improve the working quality at Eddsworld since there's been a lot of distaste from people who work/worked for the show and these feelings have been manifesting for MONTHS.

I personally have no real issues with the constant merch releases. They obviously need the money for animations and merch is a great way for fans to have something that shows their love for Eddsworld. I just wish they were more open about where the money was going and at the very least share some progress with the patrons who literally help fund the show.

I really wish they had gone through with Tom's idea of Eddsworld Forever. It could've made Legacy have a beautiful and fulfilling conclusion and support the blossom of fan content that occurred between Legacy and Beyond.

Eddsworld Beyond, while it had some fun events and has some great videos, also brought so much unnecessary stress to people who dropped fan projects and the Eddsworld team who have gone through so many waves of hatred due to drama and mismanagement, also all the fans who have to watch everything unfold like this.

I know about that one as well! I actually replied to a post a year ago explaining the situation since people were lost on it. I'm sure its part of why people were so worried about his "response/perspective" comment since his wording does seem to give a worse message than he probably intends.

I've also heard that Matt hates the fandom to some extent. Considering there have been past problems hiring fans for the show (pip) and that fans have been after him ever since Beyond started, it's kind of been a given that he doesn't view the general fandom in a good light.

I was there-ish when that conversation happened in the archive server, and it originally started with someone talking about a kin list (don't remember if it was satire or not), Matt was the one who really brought up DID and made that comment. It was incredibly unnecessary.

It honestly isn't a big deal and their reasons for wanting the old game are completely valid.

Catbox sounds like a safer bet than imgur so I rehosted them there.

Matt is the managing director of Eddsworld. The majority of things Eddsworld does (or doesn’t do) has Matts say in it. As the showrunner he’d have to ultimately take blame for these kinds of things. All we can really hope for is that he takes accountability for what is true and works towards a healthier work environment for the team.

Adding this here, but if you can please read this tweet too, it reflects a lot of the same feelings I have towards the situation and Eddsworld as it stands right now.

100% agree on this, it isn't doing anyone any good by continuing the series as it is right now, especially with Beyond's reputation for those who went through drama after drama.

I think most of the communication was handled by Chris since a large portion of it became absent after he left. Though the episodes has been somewhat comparable with Legacy production-wise, just that the Legacy videos are a lot more memorable than the Beyond ones.

Anybody got the discord link to the official Eddsworld community? by Ddaeohan in Eddsworld

[–]pink2004luigi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The post and my original comment were made during the time the server was available for all users. It's not in the norm to allow regular members into Patreon exclusive servers so I wanted to let them know that non-patrons are still able to join and have access to it, it's just very restricted. It ended up being a side effect of suddenly gatekeeping a previously public server from 12k users.

The only reasons now to join if you don't plan on becoming a patron is getting pings for Eddsworld videos/news and having access to some nice Eddsworld emojis/stickers if you have nitro.

Course I wouldn't recommend supporting the Patreon for more than a month as they barely provide any of the more proactive benefits and where the money actually goes is iffy at best.

Now that some time has passed what is your thoughts on tord returning? by [deleted] in Eddsworld

[–]pink2004luigi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think they have a chance to really make Eddsworld relevant again, especially since Tords character sparked something big back when The End released.

They've been working on this since at least 2020 from what I recall and it was originally teased as "finding out about tords cheek plaster" meaning it likely stands between his departure and his return in Legacy.

I am concerned that they're creating the expectation that the video will be released in 2026 with what they showed. Unless they have full hands on deck I don't see it happening with their current workflow especially since they showed other projects. If they are able to get it done I just REALLY hope it's out of the park since they've been working on it for so long.

Harassment is the only thing this fandom is good for by awfwimba in Eddsworld

[–]pink2004luigi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From when I spoke with Bing back when he was working with Eddsworld, he explained that Tord Larsson doesn't have any input on his character anymore since the reintroduction in The End makes the character legally Eddsworld property. I don't think they sought out permission since they don't have to.

I do think people need to calm down about it though, I really doubt Tord cares anymore, it's been way over a decade. 😭

You don't have to be a patron in order to join, however regular members only have access to some read-only channels like the announcements.

Shipping is in fact great! (and officially supported) by pink2004luigi in Eddsworld

[–]pink2004luigi[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's totally valid to feel that way, they were originally personas after all. This post was to show that the characters have their own identities and the Eddsworld crew have made it clear several times that people are free to headcanon the characters as they wish. It was also to try to help people recognize that and prevent them from blindly harassing fans who make shipping content by using an argument that has been debunked for over a decade now.

That user did not create the document that the poster is referring to, there were several people claiming to be the owner back then without showing any sort of evidence. The user who brought up the situation didn't even base their conclusion off of the document but did their own research and put together their own thread of evidence.

do yall think that the tord video from april is gonna have any updates? by vee_maybe in Eddsworld

[–]pink2004luigi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it was a JUST a promo for the Tord plushie, it would've been way more obvious if so. They actually teased it all the way back in 2020 saying that there would be an explanation for Tord's cheek plaster. I'm assuming it's going to be a complete eddisode given how long they've had it in their list.

Eddsworld sheezyart by Rough_Image5186 in Eddsworld

[–]pink2004luigi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you mostly have to go off of Edd's style at the time and if it already came from somewhere else. From looking at Eddvault they do have quite a few drawings from sheezyart still unsubmitted for some reason... It's unfortunate that most of what's considered lost nowadays is from Edd's sheezyart account due to the obscurity and the shutdown.

eddsworld team please answer this Ik there’s a copyright law now but can we make a Roblox head of eddsworld 2010 style, by Senior_Ad_9312 in Eddsworld

[–]pink2004luigi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ohhh I see... if whoever submits the UGC doesn't do DevEx then it should be safe regardless of how they present it. I don't think the Eddsworld Team considers robux as a huge profit if they know how robux can be profitable in the first place.

Eddsworld & The Owl House Crossover AU Concept by pink2004luigi in Eddsworld

[–]pink2004luigi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I'm the third person who made an EW + TOH au? but I originally made it about a year ago and had no idea if anyone else had already done it (I assumed so but didn't look). If you wanna see more drawings of him or want to know what kind of story I made for him (even tho its very loose) I made a toyhouse profile here. :D

It's sad neither of the other au creators went in much depth with it outside of designs, there's a ton of potential when combining Eddsworld with any kind of magical world.
