Hi all, Sorry it has taken me so long to return to these forums. I do have some valid excuses and some not, however none that are worth putting you all through.

Just wanted to highlight something that has happened to me over the last week.

As you may be aware, I have a Youtube channel that has been up for about 4 years,

http://www.youtube.com/user/lovetoinflate

I have not been actively uploading anything for about 2 years as my living situation does not make it easy to set everything up , film, edit and upload more videos.

Recently my latest video, ‘Superman Body Inflation’ which has been posted for over a year, has been reviewed by a number of cable TV shows and media outlets. Most recently and by far the most ‘effective’ (nearly 1 million views to date) has been a review by the internet shock jock, Ray William Johnson.

In this episode he is blunt, rude and crass regarding my video, however, please don’t become offended on my behalf. This is his thing. He has to continue to ramp up his diatribes in order to keep the pre-puberty masses tuning in from week to week rather than Goggling ‘One Direction’ photos.

I’m serious when I say, I’m not insulted by either this or any other reviews of my work. I do not upload these to seek wider community acceptance of the inflation community. I upload them for the teens and adults that have always thought they were alone in their inflation thoughts. That felt alone and more isolated as these seemingly irrational thought and scenes play over in their heads. I, for one, felt a huge relief and comfort in discovering others out there with my same feelings. I also have to sincerely thank my mate blowup_boy for his support, inflated hugs and words of support. Without him, I’m not sure what I would be doing.

For every 100 insulting comments, there are a few that are respectful and curious. I try to answer them with humour and respect and I usually get a nice reply thanking me for my reply. Then there are others where I simply want to show the wider community we inflationists can have a laugh at ourselves once and a while.

So, in conclusion, please don’t feel threatened by this coverage. I feel that any coverage brings the opportunity to widen our community and introduce new people and ideas to our ranks and makes us all a little less isolated.

What does everyone else think?

Regards Lovetoinflate

Luvtoinflate,

I'm so glad you are taking this so well! But I feel like you're always the target of these bullshit "exposés" that other media outlets conduct. I remember that stupid story on G4's Attack of the Show on inflation that featured numerous clips of you inflating in a Superman suit. I think those were from your previous YouTube account. It still gets me that they claimed that PVC and rubber were the same thing..fucking dumbasses. But back to the videos (mainly those on YouTube), there are quite a few that feature a male doing suit inflation (myself included), yet it always seems like most, if not all the hate is targeted towards your channel and vids. The fuck is that all about? I still think your videos are great, and I would like to see some more in the future (especially that rubber suit/zentai combination....always my favorite).

Anyone worth the life they're given steers clear of RWJ anyway. He appeals to the lowest form of humor.

Are you surprised? Ray William is one of the biggest douchebags on youtube :) iJustine aka iWhore takes the first-place though, then sexphil or whatever he is called (gets sick just by thinking of him). They will do anything for good ratings, views and money.

Just ignore the haters. Haters are mostly insecure young kids or people who never grew up in their heads. And now that RWJ got your video I bet you will get thousands of RWJ fanboys flaming your video.

Do what you like to do in life, and never care what others thinks of it.

I rather be special and stand out then be a sheep.

It's Ray William Johnson. The guy is a hack so I wouldn't and am glad to see you are taking it the way you are.

Those of you who volunteered to be injected with praying mantis DNA, I've got some good news and some bad news. Bad news is we're postponing those tests indefinitely. Good news is we've got a much better test for you: fighting an army of mantis men.

I dunno, personally I thought he could have been worse. Honestly my first reaction was "Really? Isn't that an old video? Reached the bottom of the barrel this week, ya?"

Thanks for the words of encouragement, however I dont regret anything. If you read through the youtube comments and scroll past the 'texting' based comments like LOL and OMFG..... there are some very respectful and curious comments from people about me and our community. Which I try to answer the best I can.

But, beyond all, are some of the private message I get from users saying they always liked inflation in movies but never realised there was a community of us out there.

I know this question is a double sided sword, but, does anyone have any ideas on how our little community could grow bigger? (pun intended).

This may sound strange but I think basic exposure. Like you said, you have received some messages where people expressed they didn't know something like this even existed so it at least perked the interest level a little bit.

That's the only idea I have on that subject though.

This is really funny! My son, though he doesn't know what i do, does know i've made videos of a certain nature (not in detail - i needed to say something to prevent him bursting in unexpectedly but i've told him nothing more than that) watches that channel and has specifically said to me how embarrassed he'd be if any of mine appeared on it.

I think this is fine - almost any publicity is good publicity and he was actually quite good about it in a way. Also, anything which gets you more views is good in my book. Congratulations, in fact!
