Hey, all. Didn't see a place to actually introduce myself all that well, as evidently you have to post first to kind of introduce yourself...kind of strikes me as a bit topsy-turvy, but whatever...I'm not here to talk forum design!
What I am here to talk about is someone I'm surprised wasn't brought up in these Lolcow forums sooner: Dozerfleet, aka David Stiefel. I was introduced to him from an episode of the F Plus Podcast, and since then I looked into the wiki where the readers got enough material to read from in about an hour...and then I realized they weren't kidding when they said there was enough to hold some kind of charity marathon if they were so inclined.
No, this was not a CWCki-esque wiki chronicling all the stuff he's said and done throughout the years, it's a Navaverse-esque wiki he threw together and is the sole contributor to, despite naming everything he does as a legitimate media company, and naming himself producer and founder. It's a titanic, overproduced leviathan and it's stuffed to the gills with his strongly Christian fundamentalist-flavored worldview.
There's something in here for everyone. Bizarre worldbuilding and convoluted universe creation? Yep. Childish understanding of the world crashed headlong into the realms of religion and politics, and yoked to an amateur understanding of an art medium? Yeah, and for the record, his forte is 3D art. Constant tinge of uncomfortable religious overtones to most of, if not all, his creations, not to mention using them to make his creations as transparent a mouthpiece of his skewed, ultraconservative viewpoints? Yeah, it's there. Serious delusions of grandeur and the belief that he's way bigger than he actually is? Do you even have to ask? Real-life drama and overblowing things in his life as well as categorizing them aggressively in the vain hopes that someone will care? Bingo.
I can't really do it justice, though most people well-versed in lolcows will probably find it a bit bland and broad. But when something this big and relatively well-traveled seems to go everywhere but a place wholly devoted to lolcows? That's an oversight I feel like I should correct.
