How do you think the anons that made the original backrooms posts feel?

Imagine that your creative works are viewed by hundreds of millions and generate huge amounts of money, yet you benefit nothing.

There isn't even a way of telling anyone it's your idea or getting any sort of validation, notoriety or accreditation for your ideas. The backrooms movie is hitting projections of ~ $150 million in the box office yet the anons that posted the original image and made up the backstory are probably impoverished neets. They don't even get a free ticket to see their ideas on the big screen.

Honestly, if that happened to me, I would go crazy.

It’s a literal POST. The thing I am doing right now. The thing you did with the OP.

What “creative work”? The 2 minute idea and 5 minute write up? How much recognition or compensation do you fucking expect to receive from this amazing contribution?

I might be the reason a few minecraft features are the way they are due to being one of the first people talking to notch when the game was being made. back when you could just e-mail the guy. gravel, flint, bows and arrows. I discussed doing the soundtrack with him but prioritized other stuff in my life.

I had a crypto wallet with a very large amount of monero in it from when it was near worthless. it will never be recovered.

not exactly the same kind of thing but somewhat similar in the missed potential and the sense of loss. for me it's just "oops, oh well" and I look forward.

It's what happens when you anonymously post ideas on the internet.

I've been calling people chuds since junior high in the 80s. I also coined Brudi in the /deutsch/ threads. Most significantly, I went to college with Shane Carruth and showed him The Jetty after we talked about 12 Monkeys and he didn't know it was a remake. I'm fairly certain his second film was inspired by a conversation we had about Soviet experiments in mind control, in particular an experiment where two people were dreaming lucidly and communicating with each other via tapping out POW code on each other's hands, then one hypnotized the other, or rather thought he did, but he was the one who was in fact hypnotized into thinking he had achieved the hypnosis.

This isn't the same but I'm fairly certain I started the resurgence of calling people here esl. I heard someone call someone that in 2008. I started using it here because I realized the browns were never going to admit where they were from. Calling them all europoors stopped working because more indians and south americans were getting cheap phones and internet. Just straight up calling them esl worked and I kept using it on multiple boards. I recall a thread on /tv/ with a mad frog image asking what was wrong with being esl and I knew we had them. Shit is hilarious.

I came up with an idea for a horror movie featuring badly taxidermied animals coming back to life. I don't care if someone "steals" the idea. I can only hope that someone picks it up and turns it into a halfway decent horror movie.

Making movies takes a shit ton of effort and it might end up being bad anyway. I don't have the drive or skill to pursue it. I just want to see horrible looking animals terrorize some humans.

>>219115436
We didn't think up the whole backrooms lore, we were just shitposting and created the spark which led to that. If you go looking back through history, you will find that many of the most famous movies/shows/comics/etc are very derivative of something older that lacked the right kind of refinement to make it world famous. The people see that stuff as kids, they see how it could be better, and then when they grow up they go and do it. That is sort of the history of art, at least in the context of the modern era.
>>
That it's not very original and that you have to actually do something with an idea for it to be worth something.
Slipping into dimensions/voids has been a "thing" forever".
Next time a "chosen" one book/movie comes out, try suing.
Kane has made hours of content out of this. Reminds me of Marble Hornets. Started their youtube found footage series 10 days after the og image post.

Oh your a writer? Show me the pages.
Ideas are a dime a dozen. Make something out of it or shut up.

Also that person only replied to the image. So it's even muddier than that.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_xJUQxE9tY

Is it this scene? I only saw Evil Dead 2 once a long time ago. And sure, maybe people dipped their toes in the idea, but I don't think anyone's made a full length movie featuring the taxidermied animals as the main thing. There's something unsettling in the look of these badly stuffed animals, I feel like there's untapped potential for horror in it.
>>
I created or helped co-create the term "Myspacing" back in 2005 when I was 13. People would ask me what I was doing on AIM or on whatever and I would say I was "Myspacing" if I was on Myspace doing something. My friends would say something like "lol myspacing, that's a good one". Within about a year I saw other people start to say it and eventually it became a known term on the internet.

it's just a generic idea, dude. not that it's not creative, but acting like you're entitled to compensation for writing like 5 sentences that became the kernel of an idea for movies and games and shit is silly. if that guy was so confident in the idea, he should've actually used it to make something other than a shitpost

It's funny to me how people like to downplay shit like this, when you know for a fact that if one of their posts had become popular and important without them receiving any benefit, you know they'd be pissed. Yeah, sure, it was "just a post," but the guy came up with an idea, and conveyed it so saliently among a sea of other posts, that it effectively spawned not even a widely shared and retold tale, but really kicked off a whole subgenre of horror. Like the guy who is directing the movie has basically formed his entire CAREER around that post.

>>219117281
That's actually kind of different in a more egregious way.
The thread that spawned SCP was a group of anons but none of them wanted to commit to making an actual website to archive good shit (like fucking everyone on here).
Only when a redditor who was lurking there ended up being the one to first make the site and invite contributions. But he still largely despised the 4chan users. He knew it would be a money maker down the line, he just mined anons for good stories and after enough time and entries he booted them all out and filled it with tumblr and redditors who produced shit content.

Now only the 4chan entries have any monetary value and everything after was purged or ignored. Proving once again anons are the best writers/ideas guys.

Especially when you account for the fact that most of the world (85%) doesn't speak English, or use the western internet in English, or even if they do don't use websites anymore but apps like twitter/facebook or whatever, and that of those that do most lurk, and of those that lurk only use the sites once every few weeks or less, you're left with a staggeringly small number.
I bet the resulting millennial internet space is like less than 10,000 people.
And if you further filter the people who are creative and make content then it's probably only a few hundred at most.

muh creative idea
there are fucking shit tonnes of ideas out there. most people can't execute, have no money, are retarded, are generally competent. it is hard to make an idea a reality, that's why they get shit.

The "horror element", by which I assume you mean the monsters and the fact that you can't escape, are literally secondary and wouldn't exist without the framework of LE HECKIN EMPTY OFFICE BUILDING which is what zoomers are really afraid of. No one's gonna watch this dumpster fire for the CGI monster jump scares or because they're invested in the fate of the characters.

I didn't make the backrooms post, but I made other posts here on 4chan that snowballed into money makers.

It's weird because I feel pride that what I made took off, but no one will ever believe me if I say 'oh yeah, I made that anonymous post,' so you can't feel too much pride. What's more disheartening is when your actually good ideas get ignored, but some dumb shitpost becomes eternal copy/pasta.

How is that this shithole of a site is somehow the biggest creator of internet culture? And it's even worse with the younger generations, I don't clutch my pearls over clavicule or whatever his name is, but it's weird seeing the trends that teenagers are following get birthed here several years earlier.

Shit, time hasn't moved normally since 2012. It's so fucking depressing to look back and realize that what I consider a "new" version of minecraft came out in 2013 and time feels like it has barely moved an inch. It just feels like everything is getting slowly shittier, uglier, and personal freedom is just way less important to people. The mindset of the 2000s that people should be able to do what they want if it's not physically harming another person just doesn't exist.

FTFY
It is of course a curious thing that every non-capitalist society always embraced totalitarian dictatorships and murdered millions of their own citizens in brutal purges as well as famines born of the failures of collectivism and "planned" economic and argicultural programs
Very, very curious indeed

>Imagine using "no clip" in a scary story and you're being serious about it.
I think you overestimate how much effort went into the original post. Most of these posts are just bite sized hypotheticals that explore one or two spoopy concepts. The intended audience is literally just other anons, not a publisher.

You dumb autist.

"Slop" is the last true major cultural influence 4chan had on the internet and that's also not the newest term. Not saying it's the last time but the age where like 80% of memes and lingo came from here are long gone.

At this point 4chan uses more foregin slang/memes than homegrown ones. incel and nigger Twitter, twitch and overall zoomer tiktok babble like "yapping" "aura farming" "mogging" is more prevalent now than ever.

>>219116058
you would be astounded at how much pull 4chan somehow still has on modern-day internet culture (and therefore modern culture as a whole by extension, at least for Gen Z / Gen Alpha). I used to think it was bullshit drummed up by anons who thought they were cool for posting on le epic 4chinz and then I saw "based" get catapulted from 4chan to reddit and now it's just a word everyone uses and I believe it now.
>>
Well it looks like we're all being self-masturbatory here so in that spirit I made this for a shitpost on /v/ circe 2012ish, which helped kick off the "shrek is love" meme. No I do not give a shit it's just funny how much it spiraled from there
>>
>>219115436
This isnt the first time this has happened
S2 of rick and morty and everything everywhere all at once was outlined by anons on tv

cocaine bear was also a meme from the internet
snakes on a plane i think started as an online joke but i could be wrong on that one

hollywood is infamous for stealing ideas and jokes

Twitter is arguably more influential than 4chan nowadays but for some reason 4chan seems specifically good at propagating new terms whereas twitter seems better at propagating trends/conversation topics

I don't hate them though. As I said, they're players among others, I just want to see the game end once and for all. I don't care about fitting in.

the only remotely noteworthy thing Ive ever done here was writing a faux screenplay type shitpost about incels. i wrote it in like five minutes in a haze of weed smoke and forgot about it after it got a couple replies. then like three days later I see it on fucking /ck/ and /pol/ and other boards. was circulating for a while here as well. what pisses me off is that it wasnt even close to my best work
