PLEASE NOTE THE CREATOR HAS MOVED ON FROM TOUHOU AND NO LONGER WISHES TO DISCUSS IT OR HIS VIDEOS
ANYONE WHO IGNORES THIS WILL BE ADDED TO A TALLY


/////Those of you who want to watch the video, start reading here\\\\\


So for those of you with a brain, please read the following FAQ before you comment, (although most of them are technically more 'comments and responses' than 'questions and answers'

1. Q: You pronounced one/multiple character(s) name wrong in this scene.
A: I speak English and these names are Japanese and complicated, big f**king whoop I said it wrong.

2. Q: Can I point out you pronounced the name wrong?
A: No, once a video is uploaded I can't make any changes to it so you're only going to annoy me, furthermore about 5 other people will likely point out the same thing which only makes things worse.

3. Q: You spelt a word wrong.
A: Again, once a video is submitted it can't be altered, telling me this now is not helping.

4. Q: You pronounced a Japanese word/terminology wrong.
A. If I said it, it is because I was trying to please the fanbase, but screw it they ain't worth it anymore. Again, I speak English not Japanese, and Japanese is complicated to pronounce.

5. Q. What's the name of the song at *describe scene here*?
A. Read the credits genius.

6. Why were your Touhou Parodies taken down?
A: Because I was trying to focus on my university work and I was sick of people complaining about the above mentioned questions. Worst of all they weren't people who hated it, they were people who actually liked it but didn't feel like mentioning that right away and wanted to 'help' me (Navi style).
Logically if you upload something to the internet, you upload it for the world to see and you have to accept that some people can react in a way that bothers you. I was unable to accept that under the stress at the time so I took it down until I was finished with university, got rid of the stress and ready to accept that responsibility again.

7. This character was portrayed inaccurately.
A. This is the stupidest comment of all. Touhou project is about 80% fandom and 20% cannon, most portrayals you see are based on a fan's perception of the character, so frankly there is no 'right way' of showing the charather. If you want to argue about this then you must be new.

8. Does the fact you have become a brony reflect your annoyance over the Touhou Project fanbase?
A. No, and I'm annoyed people would assume this. The reason I'm annoyed at the fanbase is because of how the fans are acting, MLP:FIM has nothing to do with it. Yes I have taken an interest in the series because it is new to me, but I have known touhou for 2 years now, it does start to tire after a while and if it wasn't this series i would get into then it would be a different one.

9. Will you make more Touhou Project parodies in future?
A. No never
I have lost the love i had for the series and the passion to make these videos so i shall never make another touhou video ever again.

10. Why do your videos have mistakes in them? Why aren't they perfect in every way?
A. Because I am not professional, I'm just some dumb kid who hasn't even got a job yet.

11. Q: Why can't your videos be more like TV? Episodes are made quickly and at high quality?
A. Because TV has hundreds of people working on it and they are paid for it, my videos are made by one person who makes them for fun and is not paid for it. Please learn this applies to most videos made on the internet.

12: I am new and have never heard of Touhou Project before, please explain it to me.
A: No, go learn about the seires yourself, that's what I did, here's a good starting point: the Touhou wiki en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Touhou_…

13: The 98 series of Touhou Project is really good, you should look it up and probably do parodies of it.
A: I don't care for the 98 series and never will, I'd rather not spend all this time to learn about yet another Touhou series. I took an interest at one point so I could please the first few people who asked this, but someone did it in a way so annoying, it killed my interest in it.

14: Technically you shouldn't hate the 98 series if that's how you feel, just the fans who made you hate it.
A: Don't tell me how to think, I don't tell you how to think.
I repeat, I never cared about the pre-series to begin with, the only reason I took any interest in that series at all is because I wanted to please the fans, and now I've learnt that isn't worth it.

15: Q: I have PM'd you a Touhou Parody I have made, can you watch it for me and tell me what you think?
A: I wouldn't do that if I were you. Loads of people do the same and a lot of them are asking for reassurance because the video is bad, I've tried to refrain myself for lashing out at people who do this but I don't know how much longer I can hold it in, I may let it out on you.

16: Q. Did anyone notice the 'Cave Craft' music playing in the background when Sikieiki says 'your all going to hell'?
A. Yes, loads of people did. I'm annoyed people point this out, it adds nothing to the joke and its only there because it was in the original video that I took the line from, I havn't even played 'Cave Craft' and am very annoyed no one point out the Arfenhouse reference, especially since I grew up loving Arfenhouse.

17: Q. Why do you make non-Touhou videos?
A: Because I want to and I'm allowed to, I made them before I made Touhou related videos so I can continue to do so.

18: Q. Is Flandre really Rumia is disguise?
A. No, I was talking out my ass to make fun of the people who actually believe that theory, I assumed people were smart enough to pick up on the subtly, hence the line 'Far-Fetched'.

(I'll be honest, I cringed writing those questions)

\\\\\Those of you who want to watch the video, stop reading here/////


And now, here are some questions that aren't annoying or obnoxious, but I will answer because they are asked a lot and the point of this FAQ to to prevent frequently asked questions:
1. Q: Why did you let your loyal fans who don't care about these nitpicky problem suffer by denying them the videos they love so much?
A: I apologise to the real fans who suffered from this, but I was unable to deal with it at the time and this was the best option. They are back now and I hope that makes you feel better. I hope you will continue to support me and if you don't because of this then I understand.

2. Can I request a sketch?
A: No, i do not want to talk abut anything to do with touhou

3. Can the sketch I request involve my OC?
A: No. these are parodies of the characters of Touhou Project, not a fanfic.

4. Can you make a 'Touhou Sketches: *charather's name* Edition'?
A: No. the Flandre Scarlet Edition was a one-off.
(Note: people have actually got the message and have stopped asking me this, but I'll include it here just in case)

5. Q: How come you won't make any more 'character edition' sketches?
A: Because I always intended it to be a one-timer thing, I didn't expect people to request more characters, especially since I figured people would know how many characters this series has and how long it would take to do a video on each.

6: Q. What's your walfas DNA?
A: It comes in 2 parts so I can have facefuzz and glass at the same time:
3.39:beats:100:8:253:297:209:22:21:0:0:110:0:3E1600
3.39:beats:100:0:240:0:0:0:128:54:0:1:0:3E1600

7. Q. I included your OC in a video I made, does that make you happy?
A: First of all that's an 'author avatar' of myself, not an OC. It's not a superpowered elf on  a mission to save his girlfriend from the evil rumia, its just a visual repetition of myself for meta-humour and self-mockery. Secondly, not anymore. I love it when I inspire fan tributes because of the effort people put into it, but since copying and pasting the DNA is easy, everyone does it to the point where some people think it's the only way to pay tribute to me.
If you want to make fanworks that will make me happy, then so a parody of my parodies, draw a picture, I don't care if you think you have bad drawing skills, at least you put the effort in, that alone will make me happy. But please, enough with adding my wlafas-self to your videos already.

8. Q. Can I make my own Touhou Sketches?
A: Yes, I won't stop you.

9. Q: I really like how you voice some of the characters, can you do some voices for my video?
A: Yes, but weather I'll do it or how fast you receive it varies on how busy I am when asked this.

10: Q: There is a spelling mistake in the title/description/search tags/annotations, can I point this out?
A: Yes, pointing out these mistakes is fine because they can be corrected and can be done very quickly, it's just when it's in the video itself it can't be changed.

And for some fun to prevent stress, I shall make a tally of all the people who didn't read the FAQ and made these comments anyway to make them look stupid.
(I got the idea from :iconmlp-is-crap:)

People who commented without reading this FAQ:
IIIIIIIIIIIIIII = 16

People who tried to justify themselves:
I = 1

Strangers who attempted to talk about touhou with beats0me even after he asked them not to:
6 = IIIIII

Please give us a way to watch de Flandre edition. I don't want to talk about it or anything, I just want to watch it, because there is no way to watch it left in the Internet. Just upload a mp4 file and link it or something... :/
