Can someone knowledgable in the sport confirm if this design is now compliant with space for advertisers etc?

That was his "I had a heart attack but not really" pity fest scare last year. My guess is that was the day he realized he no longer had enough money to print and ship everyone's shit. IBS drama streamer being the only possible way out.

Crazy. That was about the same time he decided to change gears on who his friends were. You might be right.

If FROG were smart, he wouldn't pick this fight.

Actually, if he were REALLY smart, he'd drop the whole Eric July thing altogether, but I suppose we can only expect so much.

He's in too deep at this point. He's even gotten Shane and Malin to jump in the pool with him. I can only imagine EVS trying to all of a sudden decide to stop devoting his entire life to what Eric does. Majority of his viewers are probably people that hate Eric July at this point. Although I'm sure he'll be going after Yellow Flash in a few months when his comic comes out. So he'll have that.

This screen shot is a good representation of what this car will look like both on the track, and on screen. Cyberfrog looks like a tarp being sucked into the wheel well, the logo on both the hood and rear quarter panel are illegible at a distance. This means that normies (the majority of the viewing audience) will not know what the Polaris lime green Slowpoke Express is trying to advertise.
There is a reason why major media studios do not buy ad space on race cars; and there is a reason why auto makers, and parts providers do buy ad space on race cars... It's a total mystery why this is.
But that trailer for that girl book sure is awful, roight?

Why would it matter if the money from campaigns were made to do the trailer. He said from day 1 every cent it going into the rippaverse.

It doesn't matter, they're reaching at anything and everything to try and make Eric look bad because "Eric makes big money from mid books" is a weak motive to take a hard stance on. I personally think a live action trailer for a comic is little much and honestly thought it was a little cringe, but it means fuck all to me or the customers how much cash from campaigns went into it. If people get the products they paid for and on time, he could spend every other penny on hookers and blow for all I care. And if he's using the trailer to test the waters for potential live action deals, good for him, there's no reason he can't expand to other media of his own creation if he's putting his own money into it.
 
Camelot, if he qualifies and has a working car, will be driving an uncompetitive car destined for near last place at a minor-league ARCA race. Nobody will see the car unless camelot wrecks one of the race leaders.

ActMan, who made Az's Starfield pronoun rant go viral by shitting on it, has come around and had to admit he had a point. As had many others. Their audiences see this too. If the woke Marxists had been left to their own devices with no constant pushback they would have won. The gaslighting would have worked. Even the normie influencers are talking about this stuff now and a good amount of them are on the anti-woke side. The same article bomb attack they tried to use in GG1 has been completely ineffective this time. This is because we keep making noise.

Anecdotal and sample size of one, but. I have a co-worker who is an enormous LotR nerd, read the Simarillion and all of that shit. Naturally he saw Rings of Power and it was dogshit so he got mad and and went on YouTube, and discovered Nerdrotic. He now more openly calls out Hollywood bullshit in other IP's and frequently cites Gary's videos during those discussions. Previously this was a guy who just silently ate the goyslop and didn't complain.

These grifters do serve a purpose in my opinion, they make media literacy more accessible to normies.

Like Holy Nikocado and Orlin @FROG. Not only did you squander (Allegedly) campaigns you also might not have heirs in future.

It's not his fault. Poor kid never had a chance. That faggot @FROG probably molested him as a child.

I had no idea these Comics gate people produced so much milk.

From the Warski stream:
Kino Casino segment on EVS is supposedly coming. Warski is looking for the list of everyone EVS has fucked over.
Click to expand...
Should we try and compile our own list?

I don't know if EVS fucked over all these people, but off the top of my head the names of people who over the years have parted ways with EVS:

Doug Tennapel, Mike S Miller, Patrick T Parnell, Wenger, CamelMoon, Kelsey Shannon, Narwhal, Jeff from WorldClassBullshitters, and Ya Boi Zack.

There must be plenty more, right?

What's the story on Kelsey and Jeff? I always thought Kelsey was too chill and talented to be hanging around those guys, I'm glad he's at least out of there, but I also haven't heard much about him.

I didn't even realize WCBS was still going on but I looked at their channel and they get pretty good views still. What happened there?
 
I don't know if this is the proper place to post, but it is related to American comics and the artist supposedly became part of #Comicsgate.

Next month marks the 10 year anniversary of the old CBR Forums, which began in 1995, nuking their entire board because of this ugly ass Teen Titans New 52 cover (or something like this):
teen titans reboot cover.png
Former DC editor Janelle Asselin criticized this cover (Link) for sexualizing a teenage character and how this is problematic for a reader's first impressions. The backlash was swift. She was married to a man but now identifies as lesbian. The drama was quickly swept under the rug, and I'm sure WB/DC was working overtime to memory hole this. Even on liberal Reddit, a lot of users said that they had never heard of this drama.

What I hate is that the old CBR forums or whatever they used to be called have no archives that I know of, and decades of internet history was lost to time. The current forums are a dumpster fire as always and I believe they're now restricting registration.

A lot of women have used the incident to highlight misogyny within the American comics industry and why they're struggling now. Tons of male comic industry workers who criticzed Janelle or whatever still had jobs (unless their sexual harrassment stuff came to light, especially during #Metoo). What I find hilarious is that manga (aka Jap comics) is presumably an even more sexist industry, given how societial norms in Japan for women are far different than the empowered American female, yet they're extremely successful and have found a niche worldwide. Though this perhaps due to them having a variety of genres and not being dominated by capeshit like American comics (on top of weeb fever I guess).

Here's some of the Reddit discussion when this incident was brought to light again back in 2021 by a now deleted OP account:

I don't know if Kelsey has bad blood with EVS. He's doing a segment of Shane's Axcend comic too. But as far as I recall, he left the JACK show. I think they said it was something about not being able to promote. But they'd say you can't promote if you don't do the show.

Anyhow, Malin went on a bitch bender about it for weeks. Anna too I think. Seemed like whenever John could, he'd say something negative about Kelsey. And the reason why he couldn't promote is because he's never on the show.

But I think for the most part, Kelsey has his own show that he likes to do, and he seems to work a lot. Enough to where he would seem to just disappear for large periods of time. Probably to work on stuff.

Found a video where Kelsey talks about leaving the JACK show.

PTP kind of compiled a list a couple of months ago (and it's still missing so many):
