Elliot Wilson is one of the reasons why we got to this point. dude is a super-sellout.

and most of yall in here criticizing complex are the same ones giving them hits. I wouldn't even know about that website if yall weren't always posting links to their site.

So whatchu gonna do about it besides give them promo?

shyt,dude is all talk.

And can't handle ANY criticism is the whole irony:russ:

I use to do the music blogging myself and isn't "too hard" to get one up and running.

:yeshrug:The resources are all there, just need to realize how time consuming it is and what you're willing to put into it.

:yeshrug:But this is The Booth dudes here are gonna shoot the breeze about it, rather than be about it.

He means well, I'm just trying to remind him (shyt all of us) that they ball is in our court on this issue...regardless of how many sites come an steal our content/memes and shyt, it's on us to get together and make this more than what it is. Spending more time talking about what they do and who they aren't hiring doesn't do shyt. Creating content and becoming more than a haven for "fukkery" would go a long way.

So what would it take all the mods and users pooling money and resources ?

I don't have the answers Sway.

:yeshrug:

But just to throw shyt against the wall, you start with taking what we already have/do and organizing it. From the :hamster: era on til now, this nucleus of posters have been responsible for a lot of slangs, memes and quality content that usually ends up being utilized elsewhere. Being that I don't fukk with them like that, what's really the main draw for Complex? The editorials? We got some dope writers here. Industry people pay attention to the site, we could be getting some interviews.

:yeshrug::yeshrug::yeshrug::yeshrug:

I dunno breh I just think it would be better to compete than complain.

As far as the money, I say we hit up Martin Shkreli as an investor :lolbron:

Also consider reblogging money cat on tumblr.
