I actually had that thought after viewing this. I would hope that was his real reason for doing it, maybe even a counter-act after what the Fine Bros did. If so, he could protect any future publishing on his end (and maybe the general CreepyPasta population as well).

If not, he wouldn't be just screwing over a lot of people, but even the ones he's worked closely with like Mr. CreepyPasta, who has been a heavy influence on his publicity.
