Gaming Front Network - Blog: How the WTF & Funny Moments series all started. by LoneStarGamer

I just wanted to let everyone know about how the WTF & Funny Moments series all started. It was crazy how it all started in the beginning, all I wanted to do was to make a montage that showed everyone how many problems were in Halo 3, such as sniping another player in the head without he or she dying and other issues, such as sticking someone with a plasma grenade to witness it explode in the distance without killing the other player. I intended on making a video about these issues without realizing that it was mostly due to lag and that there were no problems with the game. So then first I used the footage that I had and then some footage that I got from friends off my friends list, then I asked around for a little more footage to have enough which then became the first WTF & Funny Moments video montage. After I released the video onto Youtube with the intention to spread the word about the so called "problems" that plagued Halo 3, it was immediately taken into the wrong direction which then made it an instant success and then from there I got many messages left and right on sources such as Youtube, XBL, and Bungie.net from people who wanted to submit their footage for the next WTF & Funny Moments video montage and then from there the footage has never stopped rolling in which then made the idea into a popular series! So about a few days later after releasing the video, I realized that there were never any problems with Halo 3 and that those issues only happened due to lag, so then I went into the same direction of how my viewers viewed my video which was that the video was only showing funny and unique moments that happen to people in Halo 3 on a daily basis and so then I turned the idea into something that has became very popular and that I am very proud of. But of course the other reason why I started making these type of videos was due to the reason that I was inspired by this individual that went by the name "Mini Waz." He started to make videos with the same concept before me, so of course I am not the original idealist when it comes to this creative idea. He did not inspire me intentionally, I only followed. That is the reason why he got the recon armor and I did not which I am completely okay with. But I am not okay with the fact that he's a jerk and haves a large ego because of what he's accomplished, I told him this story which should have made him really happy for inspiring me, but when I got his reply, he completely ignored everything that I said and then told me that he had to go and play with his friends on Halo 3. I mean what a f***ing asshole right?! He couldn't even say your welcome or anything that would have made a decent reply to what I said to him. He doesn't even interact with his fans like I do, every time I get a messages on any source such as XBL, Youtube and Bungie.net, I always reply with a different response and not a copied response like he does. Well that is pretty much it, I hope that I successfully explained how the series all started and became what it is today. Sorry for making this so long, I just wanted everyone to know this and that way you all can know how it all started. -JET
