[QUOTE=Hullu V3;40057377]I really can't see how it can be bad to tell how much they paid for it.
This is basically what would've happened:
"Hey, how much they paid you"
"They paid me 500$"
"Wow, good on ye!".
End of fucking story.[/QUOTE]
Hey you guessed how much they paid me! You are still a disrespectful asshole. Go back to your mom's basement.

Yours are not art, yours are shit. They are the same thing every time you post videos of them. Sure they were great to watch at first but 189 videos later its still cardboard tubes stuck to a dirty wall in your moms front room.
They paid him $500, end of. Now get back in your little Rube hole you cunt :)

I'm disrespectful? What are you then? Reincarnation of Jesus Christ and Leonardo DaVincis bastard child? No, you're disrespectful. You're shitting all over your could have been audience/subscribers over something utterly simple and normal.
If I get banned, It is just a case of nothing more than shitty mob mentality.
I was not rude nor condescending to anyone at first.
I did not cast the first stone.
Ya'll did.
And Act like I'M the bad guy.
I politely stated I did not want to let people know how much I made
Then everyone gang raped me.
[QUOTE=Apollyphelion;40057010]And I think it is fucking rude to ask someone how much they got paid. Do you ask people if they bought their clothes at Wal-Mart?
In this thread: People who don't respect privacy.
Get the fuck out of this thread.
Honestly, I have WAYY better rubes than the one they bought.
I have 189 of them. So it was puzzling to me why they bought this one.
I don't think I'm a celebrity, I think you just know fuck all about this art form.
Get the fuck out of this thread and never look back, Jack.[/QUOTE]
So it's true.
It's actually a cultural difference when talking about wages/pay, so mind that there are people from not America here. For example in Finland it's normal to ask how much you get paid and it's not a big deal, but I've heard it's a big deal somewhere, people may find it rude.
So don't get pissed if they ask it on internet. Mind that Hullu is from Finland too and it's pretty normal to ask what you get paid.
Is this guy for real? I mean wow, really? How can you not realize that everyone is against you and you should stop digging that hole before you end up in bloody china!?

No, it's because you're a cunt and decided to respond like a cunt. Stop being such a cunt.

That is not a proper rebuttal, and I will inform you why:
What you are saying is: Halo 3 is not art because it is too similar to Halo 2
So if you take away all your insults,
that is the nugget of your argument.

hey look, now he's flaming people! -reported-

Someone was a cunt to me first.
I was NEVER cunty in the beginning. Go look at the beginning of the thread. The history is there.
So I should've taken all the dickery up my ass like a good girl?
Is that what you are saying?#Seriously go look at the thread, and tell me who fired the first shot.
[QUOTE=Apollyphelion;40057398]This is a very good machine,
although there is an edit
So not QUITE as impressive as it makes it out to be
but still very good.
However you can't really compare this to what I do
It is in a different 'class'
In the same way there are different scales of Model Trains.[/QUOTE]
Someone should give this guy the title "King of Rube Goldberg Machines".

top quality rubes
right because yours are A++ grade

I've seen a lot of your threads and they're literally all just like this one.
You used to be nice and I respected your hobby but now you're just acting like you are a champ of rubes... nope
[QUOTE=Apollyphelion;40057155]Hey, thanks for a real question!
Okay, the criteria for a GOOD rube Goldberg are as follows:
No editing. Doesn't matter if your machine is three minutes long. If it has edits, It is less impressive than a machine that is shorter, but has no edits
Quality of Camera work (You can have the best Rube ever, but if you can't film all the details, it might as well not exist- This is not to be confused with the quality of the camera itself--Just because something has high production value does not mean it is better than something with low production value. I wish I had a better camera- Unfortunately some people confuse production value to production quality. Which is like saying Justin Bieber's Cd is better than Kurt Cobain's demo tape because more money was spent on it.
One has to consider the supplies and scale of the machine. OK-Go's Rube for instance, has a price tag on it of 1000's...so you can't really compare theirs to mine. Of course theirs is flashier and more exciting in ways...they spent shit loads of money and had shit loads of space. One must judge the machine in the context of other similar production values. OK.Go had a pretty damn good machine, although I prefer smaller scale ones. I'd never compare mine to theirs, but I would compare mine to Pitagora Suichi.
Quality of interaction between objects and complexity, and movement. Rubes are essentially music for the eyes, to look good, they require unique movements, such as arcs, sprials, bounces, usually a combination of the three. There is no difference between a tire rolling and a spool rolling, it is what you make it do. An inherently bad rube is when people use marbles to take the place of dominoes. Dominoes are about creating variety through repetition, where rubes are solely about variety.
Longer is not necessarily better. The Rube must be judges on how interesting itself is. Der Lauf Der Dinge is a 30 minute slong rube (with 3 edits, so technically 3 10 minute rubes) however some parts are boring. You can have a 30 second rube jam packed with intricacies, which would make it better than a 2 minute rube jammed packed with molasses.
So these are GENERAL rules for this art form. Art definitely has some sort of unspoken guidelines, but the beauty is sometimes people figure out how to break them.
Now if you scour youtube (which is mainly responsible for the resurgence of this art form), you will see plenty of talent. Also, plenty of shit that doesn't even come close to the video japan bought. And I never said I was THE BEST, however, go do your research, oh and check out my 189 rubes and THEN start talkin' shit. I'll respect it more for sure.[/QUOTE]
and your fit none of these because they are rehashed as fuck
yes you never said the best but "You wouldn't know anything about top-quality rubes though, so stop being dishonest."
Yeah because you making these makes you way Superior in opinion than us.
btw you can spend 0$ and still have an extreme hour long RGM. ESPECIALLY if you recycle/have the friends to/ live near a scrap yard.
The thing is, if you said in your first post how much you got paid, people would cheer for you.
Like "Way to go man!"
Cause people here are supportive like a group.
Its about you, not the money.

'Look man, you're only argument for it not being art, is that it is not art.
Which makes it a really poor opinion on the matter.
I'm genuinely curious on why it isn't
HONESTLY
I want to be proven wrong
Being proven wrong is better than being proven right
However, you have said nothing convincing
[QUOTE=D3vils Buddy;40057496]You really must live in your own little bubble of self-love. What you do is not art.[/QUOTE]
Now now, don't take it that far. Dude may be a big ass, but don't disrespect the art for it.
