Jimmie Norton fucks over donors
[quote name="skip"]https://www.reddit.com/r/shittykickstarters/comments/65iuei/comedian_jim_norton_stole_61k_of_crowd_funding/ [quote]9 months ago I made a post on this subreddit about comedian Jim Norton's crowd funding cartoon project "Chip Chipperson Animation", more than one year ago Mr Norton promised to make a cartoon, crowd sourced it with 61,389 USD raised, then process to ignore and silence all the inquiry about the project in the following months. One year after the crowd funding campaign Jim Norton still hasnt release any new episode that he promised, has actually made reverse progress by erasing the 2 poorly written/poorly made pilot episodes from his Youtube channel, thus from the internet To this sub's credit, my post from 9 months ago actually forced Jim out of hiding to address the ordeal with a condescending facebook post that can be seen from here. In the post he claimed he already released a few updates of the project on his radio show, which is behind a paywall, so to those of us without a SirusXM subscription can neither confirm there were updates nor listen to it. In the post he also said that he is "simply too lazy" to write out any explanation for the delays of the perks, he also claimed "EVERY perk will be delivered", which would be impossible as any perks thats above 1000$ would require the release of new episode(s). According to Jim he already had 5 episode written and tucked safely under his bed, but no new animation has been seen by anyone as of this point[/quote] Videos in the link. [quote]I do believe that facebook from 9 months ago was the last time he publicly mention this project, the saga of one millionaire turned e-begger continues...[/quote][/quote]
