R.I.P: The legacy video maker. (1st November 2007 - 19th December 2019) Press F to pay respects. (Also, click "Read more")
~Upload schedule of my final legacy videos~ 19/12/2019 - I get sent to the PL logo
20/12/2019 - Five Nights at Freddy’s - 6 AM scene in GoAnimate/Vyond
21/12/2019 - Penelope and Sally in front of me
28/12/2019 - My first PM + FG video
29/12/2019 - Matilda's adventure inside my mouth (was originally 27th, but delayed due to an error)
1/1/2020 - New Year’s Day Party 2016! (Yep. It’s 4 years late, but I don’t care.)
5/1/2020 - A strange inversion video that’s not Caleb’s/All Chibi actions (no notification)
12/1/2020 - MJ’s Memes (A compilation containing the best parts of my old movie, which is an utter mess. Still liked it and it’d be a shame if I wasted these clips...)
15/1/2020 - A video about exploration into someone’s mouth, but who could it be?!
22/1/2020 - What appears to be my last GoAnimate video before the Vyond update (will be shortened to reduce padding, but will upload the uncut version as unlisted.)
26/1/2020 - Fluttergirl Series - The Mirror (special edition by me)
29/1/2020 - The world through the eyes of MJ :P
30/1/2020 - The mystery of the centuries-old Fluttergirl
31/1/2020 - ??? (The final legacy chapter (semi-indefinitely), relating to an arch-nemesis. This will end the legacy experience with a bang and will be premiered.)
Note that all these videos were made before the legacy’s retirement and the mystery one was created and finished 16th December at 2:30 AM. Yep. I sacrificed a good night’s sleep just to finish that last video. That’s how dedicated I am.
I’ll try to use the new video maker, but video production made with this site will be significantly slowed. I have a life outside of GoAnimate, and we all grow up. Everyone's leaving because of this change.
Also, I have a confession to make… I actually have autism, or ASD. Yep. I actually had it my entire life. It’s quite light, but it's true. My doctor believed I was diagnosed with autism when I was born (I think?), and he said that I wouldn't ever be able to speak in real life. Clearly not true because I can speak clearly but I'm kinda anxious which the words I need to use...
I know I say “scrubs” frequently and a few people complained about that, so I made a meme version of that video as a way of saying, “I’m sorry”. That shows that I can take criticism, even if it looks like I may be a bit snappy at times. I truly hate old voice alerts as you can tell, because I made a grounding video based off them. That isn’t necessary to alert such a thing, and I sometimes keep it as a meme in my head. Besides, almost every time it's used, the voice isn't even an old version. If it sounds the same as the previous instance of the voice then it shouldn't be considered old, right? Brendan Barney's old videos are a prime example, but no offence to him.
And, I'll be honest when I- er- Brian made that video on GoAnimate haters, it was secretly a rant on GoAnimate-styled rants, yet I see comments saying that I bashed someone’s opinion or if someone simply said “agreed”. You should know that I will not be making any GoAnimate-styled rants on my channel at all, unless they are purely random or for a pure demonstration. Besides, Brian never abused anyone's opinion at all, and I won’t either! It was mainly a test to see what comments may appear from people that may not have watched the video before, or a “generic rant simulator”, if you will. Even Brian himself said that the GoAni community is very manipulative and a few comments on that video prove this statement. You're all still awesome, by the way.
That just shows that even the most talented creators can have autism and still take criticism when it’s due. And yet, some evil people still use “autistic” as an insult, probably for people who are considered “stupid”.
I know that the GoAnimate community can be quite toxic, but… it’s better than Fortnite, that’s for sure! Those overused name templates such as “AwesomeGoAnimator // MJ, the Spirit IsCutie”, “Fluttergirl&Matilda336 MJtheSpirit909” and “MJtheSpiritYes LotteryBoyNo”, they're only used because the community thinks that they look cool, but in reality they’re just another one of those black sheep in the field. I’m not saying you should stop using that username if you are doing so, but please understand my thoughts on the overused username terms. Once one person starts doing something, everyone else will start plagiarising it by putting “inspired” in the description and it gets more views, even if you make a copy like everyone else to tell people to stop copying it and it’s even animated better… what the fudge?!
I don’t go down that road because I have a creative mind that isn’t all about the endless grounding videos. The reason of a grounding is to punish someone for their unethical actions that may be considered negative on the victim experiencing it. You can’t just get expelled for 13 years just for talking in class! That doesn’t make any sense…
I’ll probably make another video with the Vyond Studio that will explain my future… Don’t worry, all my GoAnimate/Vyond videos will remain on this channel as an archive of how great GoAnimate/Vyond USED to be before the staff took down almost their entire site. (Yes, I will switch back to free trials. It’s not worth giving them any more money, to be honest.)
(And in case you scrolled to the bottom quickly, I say it again, yes, I have autism and I had it all this time. Yet I was able to take criticism and respond to people, re-introduce parts that my fans loved and be fully original (for the most part). I know GoAnimate is crap, but it's a kinda crap that I have affection for... until the legacy's retirement, of course. Later.)
