'''A-Logging''' is a term used to describe the practice of those who follow Chris who wish to inflict harm upon him, often physical, and often for perceived "crimes" that Chris is "guilty" of. Those who follow this practice are known as '''A-Logs'''. A-Logs are the extreme opposite to [[white knight]]s; whereas white knights try to defend Chris from [[trolls]] and help him to improve his situation, A-Logs hold the belief that Chris is beneath contempt and deserving of whatever scorn and harm he is subjected to and then some. While once fashionable, it has become a view associated with people who wish to "trollshield" themselves, and therefore is looked down upon by Christorians. | '''A-Logging''' is a term used to describe the practice of those who follow Chris who wish to inflict harm upon him, often physical, and often for perceived "crimes" that Chris is "guilty" of.

Chris's discomfort for black people is arguably more from failing to understand social norms. Chris simply doesn't understand that one does not announce to the world one is discomforted by African-Americans; this is far from the outright ideology of white supremacy that your average neo-Nazi would have. Chris has no history of actually going out and lynching blacks or other minorities that discomfort him. Chris's notable offenses have been applying stereotypes to and picking on the black kids who defeated him in [[TCGs]] at the GAMe PLACe, as well as using "Jew" as a pejorative against [[Michael Snyder]], who Chris inaccurately thinks is Jewish, and taking a photo of a black woman and putting it on his Facebook without her permission. One of Chris's grievances, if you can call it that, is that non-white women don't fit his ideal vision of a [[sweetheart]], which he constantly fails to properly articulate; it is entirely possible for a non-racist white man to not be sexually attracted to non-white women. Chris has used the racial slur of "nigger" in a few of his means of communication, though he shows some degree of reservation where he uses this word. During the [[Lars Call]], Chris showed great apprehension towards using the word "nigga" and only did so when Lars gave him implicit permission. One of the most famous instances of Chris's use of the word "nigger" is in his video confronting [[Surfshack Tito]] on his trolling efforts.<ref>[[Chris Drops the N-Bomb#Video|On camera use of the word "nigger"]]</ref> In this video, Chris's racism is often found humorous as Tito is meant to be of Hawaiian descent. Moreover, Chris's usage of the word in [[Don't Trust Any Homos Over There]] is the result of it being an adaptation of a song from the racially-charged show ''[[Adult Swim|The Boondocks]]'', and pure laziness to change every racist part in the song to homophobic parts. When one examines Chris's use of the word, he does not show any understanding of the complexity, history, proper context, or underlying implications of the slur.<ref>[[Surfshack Tito E-mails|Chris's liberal use of "nigger"]]</ref> Once again, it is likely that Chris has been exposed to this word and chooses to repeat it blindly as he knows it that it is edgy and offensive to the colored. | ||

A-Logging is a term used to describe the practice of those who follow Chris who wish to inflict harm upon him, often physical, and often for perceived "crimes" that Chris is "guilty" of. Those who follow this practice are known as A-Logs. A-Logs are the extreme opposite to white knights; whereas white knights try to defend Chris from trolls and help him to improve his situation, A-Logs hold the belief that Chris is beneath contempt and deserving of whatever scorn and harm he is subjected to and then some. While once fashionable, it has become a view associated with people who wish to "trollshield" themselves, and therefore is looked down upon by Christorians.
The term originates from Anthony "A-Log" LoGatto, a YouTube commentator who is known for making what are often considered to be the worst commentaries ever made. He often goes on about how Chris is an awful person (and how he, A-Log, is better) who needs to have harm to be inflicted on him. However, A-Log is notorious for being known as "Chris-Chan 2.0" because of having several faults similar to Chris himself, whether it be his poorly-written erotic fanfiction (starring 6-inch fox ducks), his laughable college radio show, his awkward interviews at WolfDork.com, a leaked video of an awful stand-up routine he did, and much, much more. It was these practices that led to A-Log becoming a trolling subject himself, and the inspiration of this very term.
At one point, A-Log even received his own wiki called the "Logattopedia", which was relatively unpopular and very short-lived.
Motivations
There are a few motivations which are common in A-Logs, as they are the motivations behind the original A-Log's commentaries.
Justifications for trolling Chris
Some would argue that it is sinister and just plain wrong to mock a mentally deficient person such as Chris. As a result, some people justify trolling him by arguing that he is, in fact, a bad person who "deserves" to be trolled. One common argument is that "Chris gives autistics a bad name." Others will appeal to his debatable racism, homophobia, or sexism as excuses to troll Chris. By establishing that Chris is a bad person, it seems to justify that Chris not only deserves the treatment he currently receives, but also deserves physical and/or psychological harm inflicted on him.
It was notable that Chris had done quite a lot of horrible deeds in his life, be it cursing his former potential sweetheart Megan Schroeder for trolling him (which of course, she obviously didn't) or running over Michael Snyder with his car. This motivated the A-Loggers to ironically wish him death and curse him back.
Trollshielding
Often times, A-Logs do so to "trollshield" or avoid becoming troll victims as well. These people tend to have many traits in common with Chris--they too are autistic, still live at home beyond an appropriate age, are unemployed and/or are living off welfare, have trouble with romance, or are fixated on childish things. Some perhaps even have more faults than Chris. However, A-Logs will argue that they are "at least not like Chris" and are fervent in their urge to troll Chris so people don't troll them themselves. Often times, as in the case of the original A-Log this backfires and they find themselves becoming the subject of trolls.
Arguments against A-Logs
While Chris is far from perfect, there are those who believe that he is not exactly deserving of harm or extreme abuse that A-Logs would call for. This is reminiscent of the divided opinions in regards to BlueSpike and his style of trolling, with many disapproving of his extreme methods, but some who want a return to those more sadistic times.
Chris is not Hitler
The CWCki is not trying to justify Chris's actions over the years, but what A-Logs need to understand is Chris is not an utterly despicable person guilty of "crimes" that must be punished. Hitler was responsible for the death of nearly 11 million civilians during World War II.[1] Chris is just a gullible idiot who spends his time mass debating, finding new sweethearts, rambling about blue arms, and playing vidya. While he is quite prone to rage and has a noted tendency to dish out death threats, it is generally understood that Chris is incompetent at actually carrying them out. There are only a few notable events in Sonichu and CWCville where Chris's fictional actions are violent. Also, A-Logs tend to turn to the October 2011 GAMe PLACe incident to try and portray Chris as a truly violent individual. More likely than not, Chris's actions on that day were the result of his mother's influence, non-existent driving skills, and sheer blind panic rather than outright malevolence.[2][3] Likewise, Chris's macing of an employee and vandalizing Sonic Boom displays while banned from GameStop stemmed from his overreaction towards a simple design change, rather than an actual craving for causing a felony.
There's no legal defense over attacking Chris for real
Perhaps the best reason against A-Logging is the legal liability (i.e. being charged and possibly convicted of stalking, terroristic threats, assault, or any other possible charges that could be filed against someone). Whatever feelings you may have against Chris, there is no legal defense for taking the law into your own hands and subsequently ending up with a possible life-altering felony conviction. In addition to this, the charm of watching him is his eternal rage over a nonexistant enemy. Committing actual violence would only legitimize Chris's victim complex.
Chris's beliefs are simply ignorant, not supremacist
While his views on race and homosexuality are politically incorrect, they hardly seem to suggest Chris is an amoral monster. Chris's discomfort for black people is arguably more from failing to understand social norms. Chris simply doesn't understand that one does not announce to the world one is discomforted by African-Americans; this is far from the outright ideology of white supremacy that your average neo-Nazi would have. Chris has no history of actually going out and lynching blacks or other minorities that discomfort him. Chris's notable offenses have been applying stereotypes to and picking on the black kids who defeated him in TCGs at the GAMe PLACe, as well as using "Jew" as a pejorative against Michael Snyder, who Chris inaccurately thinks is Jewish, and taking a photo of a black woman and putting it on his Facebook without her permission. One of Chris's grievances, if you can call it that, is that non-white women don't fit his ideal vision of a sweetheart, which he constantly fails to properly articulate; it is entirely possible for a non-racist white man to not be sexually attracted to non-white women. Chris has used the racial slur of "nigger" in a few of his means of communication, though he shows some degree of reservation where he uses this word. During the Lars Call, Chris showed great apprehension towards using the word "nigga" and only did so when Lars gave him implicit permission. One of the most famous instances of Chris's use of the word "nigger" is in his video confronting Surfshack Tito on his trolling efforts.[4] In this video, Chris's racism is often found humorous as Tito is meant to be of Hawaiian descent. Moreover, Chris's usage of the word in Don't Trust Any Homos Over There is the result of it being an adaptation of a song from the racially-charged show The Boondocks, and pure laziness to change every racist part in the song to homophobic parts. When one examines Chris's use of the word, he does not show any understanding of the complexity, history, proper context, or underlying implications of the slur.[5] Once again, it is likely that Chris has been exposed to this word and chooses to repeat it blindly as he knows it that it is edgy and offensive to the colored.
In regards to his homophobia, while his reasons are ill-informed at best, not to mention that he has had no known positive experiences with homosexual men, or at least those he perceives to be, Bob is the likely source of Chris's dislike of homosexuals. Remember that Chris has had very little friendly interaction with anyone, never mind true homosexuals.[6][7] In short, Chris is not the Westboro Baptist Church--he doesn't go around picketing the funerals of dead gays, nor is he head of a power-lobbying group against LGBT individuals in Washington. He's just a redneck who's too indoctrinated by his parents and unused to minorities, or the concept of people being different to him, to know better.
Chris just cannot get a job
Some A-Logs contend that Chris is a bad person because he "steals" taxpayer money. What is almost always overlooked by A-Logs who make this claim is that it wasn't Chris who applied for social security disability; it was Bob who applied for Chris and it was he who convinced Chris that he would make more off of disability than working at a minimum wage job. Realistically, Chris didn't have any say in the matter because Bob held all the purse strings when it came to Chris having food, shelter and clothing.
So why doesn’t Chris get off his “lazy butt and earn his keep”? Well, because there are a couple of very difficult barriers that stand in his way that many A-Loggers simply don’t take into consideration.
First, there is the bureaucratic red tape and regulations involved in someone who is on disability working full-time. Ironically, it isn't Chris sitting around playing video games day after day receiving a government check that would likely get him in trouble for disability fraud, it would be working full-time at a minimum wage job while still getting a disability check that would get him in trouble.
Second, there is the issue of Chris's lack of preparation in independent living skills as well as his lack of coaching in finding a job and being able to keep it. Moreover, given Chris’s rather infamous reputation by people who have documented every unsavory aspect of his life, it would be more likely than not by taking someone working in human services or in the employment field (that has extremely strong networking and connections) and a job coach (on a long-term basis) to convince a skeptical employer to give Chris a realistic chance at successfully finding and keeping a job. In addition, given Chris's rap sheet, even under ideal circumstances Chris's chances at decent employment may be slim at best. Chris has been convicted for the events of 28 October 2011 and 26 December 2014, which may deter potential employers, regardless of his ability to perform to tasks they set him. While it may sound attractive to the uninformed to "kick his ass" when it comes to Chris working, in reality there are deep-seated issues that go way beyond the expertise of a few trolls, and no amount of A-Logging can change this.
Chris is just an idiot
Chris is not mentally retarded as defined by medical standards. His IQ is within normal range. What trips him up is his lack of "street smarts" or common sense. He actually believed that an attractive celebrity was interested in him sexually and that he was talking to her. He still insists that he's had many sweethearts, all very attractive women, and doesn't find it curious that they suddenly just die. He is an easy mark, not a criminal mastermind.
Most people can avoid the trolls
Chris does share traits with a lot of people, and some of these traits are quite disturbing and embarrassing. It's a fair assumption that a lot of people who are following Chris's antics are unemployed gamer losers, for example. A lot of people have seen Chris and uttered in their minds "Finally, here's someone who's far more pathetic than I am!".
But these traits, in itself, don't make you trollable. They may make you subject to ridicule, but it's an altogether different matter how you respond to that ridicule. You may give the people who laugh at you a mature response--laugh along with them at your own admitted faults, or just let the unwarranted criticism be what it is. Trolls certainly aren't interested in productive debate.
Or you can be like Chris and get BLANGRY at every traitorous troll under lucricities, which is exactly what they want.
Most people can recognize and try to cope with their own faults. Chris cannot.
The Hall of A-Logging Shame
In this section, the CWCki has compiled several comments (and plenty more to come) from A-Loggers on YouTube and elsewhere.
| “ | Obviously you've never heard of what he calls other people who are autistic, and that he calls people with Aspergers(such as myself) "fakers". he doesn't deserve some, he deserves everything for giving us a bad name. The trolls are also doing what they do to him for a good reason. it's not about the autism to them, but more of that he's a moron who is evil reincarnate and deserves to go back to hell. I don't believe you know what all CWC has done to us on youtube. | ” |
| GamerXZ0, in a YouTube comment on an original upload of an A-Log video. | ||
| “ | 29 years ago today, satan was born and molded into the fucktardian PENIS we know & despise today! Should i ever see him i'm gonna destroy him worse than new jack did to mass transit! | ” |
| ISLAVERDE29, another YouTube comment on an older A-Log video. | ||
| “ | Hooray he's dead. Now he'lll be spending his eternity in hell while I go piss on his grave. | ” |
| mxc82, again, another YouTube comment on one of A-Log's older videos, referring to Bob's death. | ||
| “ | Mostly because I was hoping the video would end with him getting shot dead. by the Ruckersville police. You can imagine how disappointed I am to find him still alive and kicking when the video is over. | ” |
| CKO92 on YouTube, reacting over the Lego High School video. | ||
| “ | You fucking brony piece of shit, go kill yourself. If i was your mother i would have an abortion. | ” |
| randomletters on the Lego High School video. | ||
| “ | Chris Chan u are the single worst human being who ever live. If it wasn't for u fellow autistics and Sonic OC creators like me would be respected by the world. What you have done is unforgivable. I hope Barb dies and you spend the last minutes of your life crying about how your a pathetic failure fuck you | ” |
| OfficialSteroidHedgy, in a comment in Chris's YouTube account. | ||
| “ | I hope you are ashamed that a retarded autistic person (just like yourself) killed 20 innocent kids....all autistic people should be wiped from the earth and aborted before birth since you are all evil i wish the worst fates that heaven and hell can bring upon you and all the other autistic pieces of shit like you | ” |
| RealReplyGirl4Ever, in a comment in Chris's YouTube account- comparing Chris to a man who shot up an elementary school, saying that all autistics should be wiped from our planet, and advocating genocide. | ||
| “ | Guess whose house burned down today. CHRIS-CHAN! | ” |
| Bad Webcomics Wiki, gloating on their Facebook Page about Chris's house burning down. | ||
| “ | HAHAHAHAHA | ” |
| A response by the Bad Webcomics Wiki when a troll calls them out for the above. | ||
| “ | Sadly, yes. | ” |
| Another post from the Bad Webcomics Wiki's Facebook Page, when told that Chris survived the fire. | ||
| “ | Words cannot adequately describe my utterly all-encompassing hatred and disgust for the grotesque entity that is Christian Weston Chandler. You Christian, are a shamelessly gruesome, inhuman monster. Everything you do and say only adds to your, almost incomprehensibly massive, list of atrocities. Were I to load up http://www.sonichu.com or some other Chris-Chan-related news source and saw that you finally died a death which properly corresponded to what you've inflicted upon this world, it would be the happiest day of my life.
Happiest. Day. Of. My. Life. |

| ephewe, on I Love You, Catherine. | ||
| “ | Listen, you fat, autistic piece of shit. I've tolerated you so far because you're going to be my new neighbor, but this is the last straw. You traipse around your yard carrying blow up dolls and singing awkwardly, not to mention I can constantly hear you screaming at your mother. I am serious considering finishing cleaning this lot and selling this property to someone better equipped to handle someone like you. I was well within the city ordinances with this controlled brush burn. Also, if I see any other videos of me on my lot portraying me in a negative light, I will take up a libel suit with you. | ” |
| Mac Slims, trying much too hard to pretend to be Chris's neighbor. | ||
| “ | God I fucking hate this piece of shit. I hope he dies. | ” |
| JAZZ HANDS, on the GameStop assault video. | ||
| “ | Why the fuck is he still alive!?
God, I mean, the guy looks ridiculous, he is also racist and an anti-social idiot that attacks people for no reason, and now he's a fucking burglar!? What's next, he will become the next Hitler? |
” |
| Rafael Gutierrez, on the GameStop assault video. | ||
| “ | Yes people, THIS is the person Chris's trolls have been whiteknighting and pussing out on trolling because hes "had enough done to him" seriously, give me a break, this guy is an asshole and deserves anything that happens to him because its his OWN DAMN FAULT | ” |
| TheMojoCorps, on the GameStop assault video. | ||
| “ | shut up you fatass faggot. go jump off a cliff and die. | ” |
