Arjen Van Dierten (20 September 1978 - 06 July 2009) was the self-appointed official archivist of Chris-chan's Youtube videos and other earlier material Mr. Chandler has made. Even the rarest of files managed to end up in Arjen's grasp.

Until recently, Chris blocked comments and ratings on his entries and deleted his videos at whim, forcing a patriot like Arjen to post mirrors of deleted CWC videos on YouTube with annotations for our lulz. Though some point around the end of 2008, Chris allowed comments, but he still always deletes his videos on a whim. The only time when Chris doesn't delete videos on a whim is when Chris makes a gay bashing video, he won't delete it just to show everyone his apology for making it was insincere.

Behind The Scenes

Preferring archiving to direct trolling, Arjen had stayed fairly far from Chris's wrath. He had been labeled many things, including a stalker, a historian, a hitman, and a "French" trap posing as a Dutch reporter. Most people agree, however, that AVD was simply a bitter man with a scathing sense of humor.

What is known for certain is that Arjen was strongly connected with the Miscreants.

Retirement

On the 14th of June, 2009, Arjen's final project, TheCWCvilleLibrary, received the final (at that point) 69 videos from his solo account. When Chris uploaded two new videos on that night, they went straight into the Library as opposed to his own account. AVD then changed the profile to read "The Pool is Closed," then explained the existence and purpose of the Library to both ED and /cwc/, lest anyone believe it was just yet another person trying to steal Arjen's thunder.

Over two weeks later, AVD posts what would be his final missive to the Internet and to Chris:

On the 6th of July at 12:21 AM Eastern Daylight Time, Arjen returned to Valhalla to drink with Clyde Cash and his little brother, Ryan, satisfied with the knowledge that The Curators will do a fine job protecting and adding to The Library.
