f*ck YOU EBAUM! You make millions per-f*cking-month, and you send a kid $250 for an animation that probably made 5,000 already? GOD DAMNIT I HATE THAT GUY!

yeah I read that on ABS last night, sad story.

Wow. Those two sites contradict each other so hard... I... I just don't know who to believe anymore! Oh, wait. The one who isn't an evil bastard. Duh.

Eric Bauman is an *sshole. That fact is proved again and again.

Gee what a surprise. Everyone always claims they will sue Ebaum but somehow they never do. Funny how that happens.

Aren't whe all secretly jealous of Eric? I know I'm!

That's too bad. I was really hoping that Ebaums would finally be seen by everyone for the criminal he is.

That kid is such a dumbass, he knew what he was getting into, and sold out for $250? Jesus christ. Somebody make a Scientology flash, send it to them, and let the Church of Scientology sue them back to the stone age already.

eBaum whould be raped anally with a crowbar

lol money

well if u read the article the you would know he put a lot of work into it and his family is very poor. 250 dollars + winning the 1000 flash of the year prize is a lot of money, especially to him. ebaums still sucks my trucks tho :(

D:>

Alan backer also won the contest? apart from the 250$, he got 1000$! o_o... I still condone his actions. he sold his soul to the devil!

Jealous of Eric Bauman? Dude, check the comments on newgrounds.com on that flash made for the song that plays in this YTMND site. Some guy said his sister took his virignity and Eric had a needle dick. Jealous? No.

D:

Backstabbing piece of sh*t....

The guy who made the Flash was an *sshole anyways. Good cause, but an *sshole.

That assclown bauman will never learn...

I don't think any of you can accuse this Alanh guy of anything-- none of you would refuse that money, why would you expect someone in his condition to refuse it?

The guy who made the Flash was an *sshole anyways. Good cause, but an *sshole.

i honestly doubt he actually said that quote. if he didn't, thats a MAJOR VOILATION OF US LAW.

>:(

Conflicted... on one hand, someone really should've sued him. On the other hand I would've done the same... conflictions...

that "best flash of the year" thing was rigged, he made sure alan won so he could pay him and shut him up

hmm...

Two because no one gives an actual reasonable answer.

That f*cker. I made a Phoenix Wright video for when the lawsuit was going to go through... Now it seems it's all gone to waste... =/ Alan needed to stick that 20,000 up Bauman's *ss and took him to court to blow the sh*t out of Ebaumsworld... Instead, he has just become the object of a lot of hatred as far as I can tell. I hope that 20,000 gives him nothing but sour grapes! >=/

lol JaybeemanT, ebaum doesnt make millions per f*cking month, it's just an advertisment site. He lives in a $150,000 house, which is absolutely nothing to be proud of.

f*ck that kid and f*ck eric bauman

http://alanbecker.deviantart.com/ Hey f*ggot Way to sell out to ebaumsworld. Expect a 4chan invasion.

looks like mr bauman needs another lesson

f*ck

f*cking slut!

I figure that giving this site a 5 is the same as giving eBaum and that kid a 1. That just pisses me off. How'd they get an eBaum-is-so-wonderful quote out of him, anyway? Funny also that it includes him reversing his story and saying eBaum *did* contact him beforehand...

I knew this was going to happen. But someday... someday...

leave it to me to screw up my own comment (I ment I disaprove or "abhore " Alan's actions) sorry about that.. :s

God damnit... I was in the process of making this exact YTMND... except "Unfunny Truth" style... and have everything... meh, whatever. I guess I'll curb that project for now. Anyway, 5 stars because this YTMND had to be made.

Poor Alan. Its a great flash though. At least anyone with half a brain can see through ebaums scheme.

f*ck Ebaum! The rich f*cker makes 1/4 of a million dollars a year, and he strings that poor kid around with money!

hey you know, if I was that kid, I would gladly take that $1250 for an animation I would originally not make any money for.

Everyone wants money, but screw Ebaums world.

What an *sshole.

Man, I really wish I could shoot him!

wow...THAT...was....a cheap and very cruel move by Eric. what a bastard...i can't believe he can get away of this

1.2k monies, or Legendary internet hero status.

i would like to add that now Eric is legally safe since he has proof that Alan sold his flash to ebaumsworld...if i read that right o.O

alanbecker.deviantart.com

f*ggot

That poor kid never had a choice, he could take the money and be shamed or take nothing and get nothing. He probably couldn't afford to presue the case further, so it was money or nothing. Chances are Bauman knew this and banked on it. f*cker, now that poor kids feels like sh*t for taking the only option availible to him.

i hope ebaum chokes

"Aren't whe all secretly jealous of Eric? I know I'm!" Same. Even if his site does use pretty sh*tty tactics for getting money and hits, I have to admit I wouldn't mind having his job.

http://www.xanga.com/noogai3 This just in. It seems like alan will be using the money to buy drugs and sell them to first graders.

I am disgusted. At least the kid could have asked for more than 250 dollars.

I'm willing to bet that most of the kids commenting about "that kid" backstabbing; would do the EXACT same thing, If presented with the chance.

http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/316541 Latest news, he's giving the money back.

Integrity = $250 Ouch! I feel sorry for Alan the most. Hell hath no fury like the Internets scorn! Bitch!

NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I'd sell my animation for 250 bucks, let alone 1000. then again I have no morals and ethics, and think ebaums hate sites are ghey and a waste of time and a space.

How all got fixed with $250? LOL. Alan, you motherf*cking idiot. Also, Erics.

I've just read the thingey that says that Alan tryed to gave back the money and things about demanding eBaum...whatever, f*ck it.

MIND YOUR OWN f*ckING BUSINESS.

I read on albinoblacksheep that he returned the cheque and posted an appology.

it sucks that this happend to him but he should have known this could happen. who would do business with someone like ebaum who is hated on whole the internet. (ps. don't look at the bad grammar)

Isn't this exactly what every artist wants for their work? Credit and payment? I fail to see how he's a "backstaber" for actually getting paid for something he made rather than being straight up robbed as per the usual ebaum strat.

Because Ebaums makes thousands off his animation and he gets a mere pittance.

It's his work. Let him do what he wants. Geeze.

f*ck you, eBaum.

read again foolios

If eBaum hadn't been threatened with a lawsuit, they would never have paid Alan

Don't see why any of you are mad at Alan. He apologized and has returned the money (or tried to). Geez, cut the kid some slack.

what successful artists have made it big on ebaumsworld?

damnit

Godammit, Alan you could have shut them down for good!

Dude...war...now...please

I'd take 1250 too... Who cares what people would say.

http://newgrounds.com/portal/view/316541 he states that "I'm demanding eBaum to take off my work and my quote, and I am giving back the $250. sorry for being a backstabber."

There needs to be a class-action lawsuit or something.

everyone steals, it's the way the world is. you think ebaum is bad? what about the millions of mega companies around the world that steal millions and millions every month. stop being little f*cking babies. 1'd for caring about this.

That guy got duped, big time. http://ohnoeswereallgoingtodie.ytmnd.com/

he'll get his. God will have fun bringing judgement on eric. he'll lock him in a cage wtih rabid, starving chinchillas, then let him loose to the gayest prisoners on earth.

I too have had content stolen by Ebaums (Interactive Buddy), and did nothing about it. This kid on the other hand at least extorted $1250 from them, which is at least something. So don't harass him for "selling out"--he did far more than they ever will. (Yes this was a copy+paste from me message on his DA page)

"they" --> "you" (typo)

The balance of power must shift away from bauman...

f*ck all the people saying f*ck that kid. I come a very poor family myself and I know that if someone offered me 250 for my hard labor I would undoubtedly take it. Try living on the hard side of life then come bitch you rich bastards.

Alan Becker had no other choice at that point, and eBaums forced his hand illegally. Don't get angry at Alan.

I hope none of you complaining about ebaums are wearing Nikes:http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/page/news/2005/06/23

that's a load of sh*t. Their contract is worded so it appears as if they contacted him prior to them posting it . He was sent the $250 and the contract in the mail and was like wtf? They also sent him a further $1000 for "Animation of the Year 2006" in the middle of June.

Listen - I talked to the owner of ABS last night - Alan returned the check and recanted. This "Animation of the Year" award was a fake award (how can it be best of the year when it's only June ?) - Alan Becker did the right thing - he has integrity. Also, if you read the eBaum statement carefully, it does NOT say Alan gave them permission, just that they had contacted him. (that "contact" was actually to tell eBaum to take it OFF their site ! See their deception ?)

he probably backed out cuz he had an illegal version of flash =p

OMFG. I want to beat the sh*t out of that f*cking dumbass. We came SO close. f*ck ALAN.

f*ck ebaums

Don't be ashamed, boy! Take the money and run! Far far away from here, cause these bloodthirsty punks are eyein' you up. O_O

I would have taken the money and then sued Ebaum for stealing the flash and extorting me.

I'd take the money too.

link plz?

Oh, alan. bastard.

^actually, I'm not angry at alan... he was used by ebaum and should not be hated.

wtf...$250? Cheap bastards.

Would have gotten a sh*t load more money if he sued him. F*ck ebaum

God damnit Ebaums...ANYBODY UP FOR INTARNET WAR 2?!

dude, wheres the rest of his explination!?

oh for f*cks sake charlieboy yes everybody steals but that poor bastard ebaums makes MILLIONS every month for basically COPYING and PASTEING material on his website! its f*cking wrong and somebody needs to take him DOWN!

http://ebaumforums.ytmnd.com/

to do: -send ebaum "unfunny truth of scientology -watch his *ss get sued

I love this song.

f*cking sh*t

http://upload.ebaumsworld.com/ can't you ruin his sh*t with something like this?

haha u got that from albinoblacksheep.com best =]

this deeply disturbed me to hear from ab. thank you for posting it here.

Compliments from your friendly neighborhood upvoter!

I think us YTMNDers should go down to his mansion, steal his mom's address and bang her.

Damn, we lose again.

"expect a 4chan invasion" Dude. I can say, on behalf of /b/, that 4chan doesn't give a flying f*ck.

Don't blame Alan! It's not his fault f*cking ebaum tricked him. Ebaum is scum, but Alan Becker needs our support and encouragement so he can make a better Flash, have Bauman steal it, and then sue the pants off him.

f*ck ebaum
