Okay so I’ve been lurking around the Jitters blog for awhile, but the recent 500 dollar Twilight kickstarter has finally spurred me to try and explain to some of Jitters fans why some people hate the man, but before I begin let me just say this, I don’t hate Jitters, I don’t love Jitters, with that said allow me to begin.Reason number 1: This is honestly what made me stop being a huge fan of Jitters in the first place, you young fans may not know this but when Jitters was first doing his Derpy voice the third set of lines got posted to Equestria Daily, where Jitters came under some major criticism, some said his Derpy sucked, others cried Overrated, where Jitters comes in is how he responded to this, as he said in his response “I am not butthurt, just upset” problem with that being is that when you are upset enough to post a rant about hate, I can consider that to be butthurt, but the kicker came when Sephisto removed the post and replaced it with Jitters’s little rant while chastising those who spoke their mind.
Reason number 2: The point I’m making here is one I constantly hear from friends, whovians in fact, they claim that Jitters’s interpratation of a Discorded doctor takes an interesting concept, but fails to truly capitalize on it, and honestly… I see their points, always say the art is good, but the story is the problem here, first off the Discorded Doctor kind of confuses me, he seems to switch from playing being DIscorded straight and then being really happy to see Jack, happy enough to jump around, this seems like something an undiscorded Doctor would do honestly.
The sad part about Discord Whooves however is how things seem to drop at a whim, remember the big thing about a murderer in the Discord Whooves verse? I do and I’m still really confused as to what happened to it, did the killer get caught is he still out there? if the killer wasn’t caught then what the hell is he doing?, but I digress. Some people do feel like the Discord Whooves blog is a reason to hate Jitters, childish? Yes, but I can see those people’s angle on the matter, when something with so much potential disappoints them people tend to blame the artist.
That being said let’s move on to my last point
Reason number 3: Now I can’t say I haven’t done this before, hell I do it often but Jitters’s condescending attitude towards haters can really turn some people off to him as a person.
I can relate this to many other people, for instance there’s this user on Youtube known as DSP, he is way different from Jitters in that he also bullies fans, however they both put on a rather condescending demeanor when retorting to haters, DSP has said they are mental, idiots even, while Jitters does things abit differently, say someone might forget his new gender and call him female, he will attack them for that small line of text even if it was a mistake, hell his fans may even attack that person.
All in all Jitters just doesn’t handle haters very well, and if you are reading this Jitters I need to tell you this…. Ignore haters, just do what you do, responding with bold text and all caps makes you seem like an asshole to people who don’t know you yet, people who might’ve become awesome friends to you, first impressions are everything Jitters, please just keep that in mind next time you see hate mail in your inbox, hell even a generic, “Thank you for your input” would do wonders in dealing with haters.

I thought I recognized the name wiisnake so I did some digging. It turns out that it’s the same prick who prevented me from sleeping that one time.
