Now It Is Nineteen Eighty-Four...

I woke up the other day, turned on my computer and saw the horror of this news article on the front page of Yahoo called "'What?' Confused 911 caller outs NYPD spying in NJ" (The link to the article is at the bottom of this post.) You may say that I'm misunderstanding this or blowing this out of proportion, but reading it and seeing the video brought me to tears. To think that our own Police force is spying on us, watching our every move, tracking our every location... it's maddening! I know that they were keeping track on Islamic "terrorists", but it'll soon become a lame excuse to keep track of everyone! They will search a room in an apartment, then the apartment itself, then the next building, then the street, then the whole city block! You might say that they need a reason to do this, but they will! Just give them enough time and they'll find a reason! Be a good one or bad one, they will find a reason!

The fact that Michael Bloomberg (Mayor of New York) and Jeffrey Chiesa (New Jersey Attorney General) defend these actions is insulting. To my understanding, this gives Cops the right to practically go to any house in any city or state to spy on anyone, so long as they are "searching for terrorists." The only reason these "superiors" are defending their police is to keep their upper-class, high profile political images from suffering an ego bruising! They don't want to look foolish to their people! They'll use, think of and take any excuse to save their hide!

I just don't get it. What did we do to deserve all this unnecessary surveillance? I know that it's for "the safety of the people", but in my opinion, this is starting to go too far. And soon, it'll get out of hand. It won't be "safety of the people" for long, it'll be "the CONTROL of the people"!

Where did we go wrong?

Declaration of Internet Freedom

Hello everyone!

Ford here, bringing you news about our Freedom over the internet!

Recently, a group of big name internet users have come up with a plan to counter the U.N.'s so-called "secret" passing of SOPA/PIPA. It's called the "Declaration of Internet Freedom" and it's gaining a lot of support! We, the users of the internet, the very people our government views as a "small minority" and not capable of making any sort of change in our world, must stand and fight against their new law! They say it's for security. They say it's for protection. I say? Too late, too bad! They waited too long and simply saw us as being no big deal. Now that the Internet is huge and very active, they want in on it. They want control.

And we're not going to let them have it!!

To sign the Declaration of Internet Freedom and support it, follow this link.

Gustavgr

I had a conversation with the owner of the 1944RP server. It seems that, without a doubt, he behaved like the "little kids" he hates when I simply, and calmly, asked if we could have a talk. There was a person on the server who was abusing his powers. So who better to go to, right? Well, I copy/pasted the whole Steam chat into this here Blogspot post...

10:01 AM - |1944RP| Oniell Ford 2.5: Hey Mr. Gustav. Could I talk to you for a bit?
10:01 AM - |1944RP| Gustavgr: no
10:01 AM - |1944RP| Gustavgr: you have nothing to say but complaining, bitching about a ban or unban or a bug or a loss
10:02 AM - |1944RP| Oniell Ford 2.5: All I was going to say was that Jesus has been "bending" the rules to his needs and punishing others for taking a similar course of action, but.... okay. I'm sorry.
10:03 AM - |1944RP| Gustavgr: well
10:03 AM - |1944RP| Gustavgr: that was bitching
10:03 AM - |1944RP| Gustavgr: and complaining
10:03 AM - |1944RP| Gustavgr: so fuck you
10:03 AM - |1944RP| Gustavgr: no offence
10:03 AM - |1944RP| Oniell Ford 2.5: I take offense

10:04 AM - |1944RP| Oniell Ford 2.5: Kid.

 Can you say "owned"?

P.S. He put his profile on "private" so I assume he's worried about people seeing a bit of his true nature.
P.P.S. Oh, look. He's spamming me with chat group invites into my own Steam fan group. If he has to do that, I guess he's too scared to actually make his profile public for everyone to see.

I am very sorry that you guys have to be subjected to it.

Also, here's a further example of his personality.

|1944RP| Gustavgr: Loooks like someone is mad :DDDD ur so mad you litle kid :DDD drop your balls dude, get a life :D little 9 years old kid, ur so mad XDDDD lol i owned you so hard cuz you are a little dicksucking kid :DD you little child :D
lolololllololl OWNED!!! YOU WONT BE ABLE TO REVENGE NOW ;D

Again, sorry friends.

The End of the Tank Universal Walkthrough

After two years, I've completed the TU Walkthrough. I apologize for the long wait. I mentioned in the last installment to the said Walkthrough that it is my final one. Some of you might be confused, so I'll explain. I did not mean for it to sound so dark and dramatic. What I meant is that TU was my last one. There won't be any more walkthroughs. Seeing how unsuccessful it was, I really don't see a reason to make more. And "Blood & Steel 2" may or may not happen.

However, this does not mean the end. With the TU Walkthrough finished, I'll be taking on much bigger projects! The tribute video, for instance, is almost done. Also, I'm going to be leading a massive project.... a new Garry's Mod game mode!

I'll see you all later! Thanks for reading this Blog and thank you so much for watching my YouTube channel!

American Censorship Day

Hello everyone.

Ford here, I just wanted to take the time out to talk to you all about a little thing called "SOPA" or the "Stop Online Piracy Act." It is not at all a good thing. I have read about this for some time and have concluded that this is NOT an improvement for our country. If anything, this is the closest thing to or first step towards, modern fascism. I cannot put this into words any better than the following video these protesters made. Please listen.

Status of current projects

Hello everyone.

Ford here, just wanting to give ya some news. It looks like I will have to postpone the "Blood & Steel" reboot. I remembered some other projects that I forgot about a while back, and will be finishing those first. They are the Tank Universal Walkthrough, which will come first, and the big tribute video to a dear friend of mine. The tribute video will be quite different from what I usually make. It'll be in the vein of the Gmod Idiot Box episodes, but will be shorter.

The TU Walkthrough will be finished up soon. I know I've been slackin' off on making them, and I feel bad. So, I will be pushing a lot aside to finish what I started. I can't reveal what the "Blood & Steel" reboot will be about, since I haven't finished the first draft of it yet. However, I have finished the central plot of the tribute video. Though I can't say much more about it, the video will feature a comical fight scene.

Other than the projects, I've been busy catching up with Team Fortress 2's updates. I'm also playing Fallout: New Vegas several times over as different characters (Example, Guns/Speech/Lockpick or Melee/Sneak/Lockpick) to experience the game in many more ways than one. I guess you can say, I'm doing this as research for the upcoming "Blood & Steel" story. ;)

Keep your eyes on this Blogspot and my YouTube channel. You'll see updates soon enough! Thanks!
