Public DSMP Fandom Heads-Up: "Everywhere At The End Of Time"
I've heard Ranboo is going to be using music from "Everywhere At The End Of Time" by The Caretaker for his upcoming lore. So, I'd just like to give everyone a forewarning before we get there:
Do not talk about Ranboo or the Dream SMP in the comment sections of the videos of the album on Youtube. Do not do it.
Not only is this extremely annoying to those people outside the fandom who just wish to listen to and talk about the project itself (and given how big the dsmp fandom is, you will totally flood that comment section and make outsiders rightfully hate us), but you also need to be aware that doing so would be EXTREMELY DISRESPECTFUL considering the context of why this music was created.
"Everywhere At The End Of Time" is a project created by an artist over many years of painstaking research and work in order to attempt to describe the experience of losing your mind to dementia, and to raise awareness for diseases like alzheimer's that cause it. It's a very solemn, serious thing, and it needs to be treated as such. It's not something that should be taken and turned into a fandom thing.
Lots of people have lost loved ones to dementia, and some of them go to this video project to watch it, understand it better, and discuss their feelings and their grief with others in the comment section. How much would it suck, do you imagine, for them to go and find tons of kids rambling about their favorite twitch streamer?
I like Ranboo, he's super cool and so is his storytelling! I don't think there's anything wrong with him using the music in his streams (so long as he doesn't associate it with something evil). However, there will be something very wrong if the fans can't respect the project. If you want to comment on the videos, don't say anything about the Ranboo or the dream SMP, only talk about the project and the music itself.
I never ask this, but this is an important issue, so: Please share this message to the rest of the fandom. I don't care what methods you use, go ahead and repost this to other sites, with or without credit. I just want people to read this.
