When was that? Depending on when it was, it might have been a DNS issue. Those should be gone now.

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 10:10 PM)

on*

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 10:10 PM)

Red said he couldnt get one

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 11:25 AM)

Also I still have to figure out how to set up our e-mail accounts on the new host.

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 08:19 AM)

As soon as I figure out how to restore it. Sorry, I know I said it'd be done by now, but I didn't expect to have to put up with this DNS crap and other issues that popped up.

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

So when's the black theme coming back??

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

"Should"

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 07:27 AM)

That DNS took longer to propagate properly than I thought it would. *Now* we should be back for good, though.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:48 PM)

Or it might be because Bluehost *finally* got around to that server wipe (one week after we'd asked for it) and that wiped out our DNS settings. I'm not sure which and I don't really care. In any case, we've severed our last ties with Bluehost, so this will not happen again.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:08 PM)

Looks like Bluehost yanked our DNS since our hosting account expired. That's why the site went down a while ago. But as you can see, it's fixed now.

@  Misk : (23 July 2015 - 04:55 PM)

No, they do not.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 04:27 AM)

The goggles do nothing?

@  Misk : (22 July 2015 - 05:50 PM)

My eyes.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 12:24 PM)

Looks like forum uploads might have been broken since last night. That should be fixed now too.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 01:33 AM)

Heh, whoops! Server went down for a few mins when I borked the config. Looks like it's back up now.

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 09:09 PM)

It looked like a napkin

@  ILOVEVHS : (21 July 2015 - 09:04 PM)

Fan-fuckin-tastic.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:25 PM)

As for the beaver picture while the forum was down, I think Tim drew it. On a napkin.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:24 PM)

No kiddin' about that "Finally!", Shadow. I am *so mad* at Bluehost for never responding to our support ticket. I submitted it early Friday morning and they *still* haven't answered it!

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 06:37 PM)

Maybe he did that himself

Inhibitor: Indeed.

I also find it odd that all the Sonic characters could breath in space while Chris had to wear a space suit.


Overall, I have never wanted a character to die so badly before I met Chris.


The only episodes I found worth watching were the ones with the Chaotix in it. They were hilarious. And I heard the ones with Perfect Chaos were pretty good too.

Probably because those episodes already had grounded characters and story. The monstrosity you see throughout the show is what 4Kids made, and mainly why its torture.

Wow.

I can't believe I was once a fan of the series. But after watching SatAM and SU, it made me realize just how crappy Sonic X really was (by "crappy", I mean the 4kids dub). After watching the Japanese version though, I was surprised to see just how decent the show really was. But yes, it still had its share of flaws.

This is part of the reason I hate Sonic X.
Sonic X had some good ideas, but they never went anywhere. Plus I hate how the character's were written.
Sonic became laid-back and lazy.
Tails was boring.
Knuckles became really stupid.
Amy became a craze insane fangirl, who everyone was afraid of making mad.

Dr. Eggman became a joke. It was hard to take him serious as a villain.
And then there was Chris who seemed to be the star of the show.

I'm gonna jump on the anti-Chris bandwagon and say he was perhaps one of the reasons I hated the show the most. But he wasn't the only reason. Most of the characters annoyed the hell out of me. Amy, tails, the professor, etc. I honestly LIKED Knuckles having Atem's voice! It just sounded so funny whenever he confronted one of the characters! To me Sonic was kinda........lacking in personality, but believe me he was much more tolerable than most of the other characters. Eggman was only mildly threatening at best.

It was nice that the show tried to follow the Sonic Adventure series story lines, but honestly, the annoying characters, terrible dialog and mildly poor writing kept me away from the show.

The reason why I had to quote that line is because......I mean seriously! What has Eggman been trying to do this past bagillion years? Blow Sonic to bits! Now all of the sudden he doesn't want to leave a scratch on anyone? Whats he gonna do to Sonic then? Have a pillow fight to the death?

Exactly.

If they're gonna make a TV show based off of Sonic, Sega should have had at least make it entertaining to watch.

Instead, we got a joke of a show that could have been good had it actually tried.

I think what makes this even more ironic and laughable is the fact Sega of Japan gave this show its full seal of approval, and yet animated shows that Sega hated like Sonic Satam and Sonic Underground made by DIC were actually a much more entertaining and quality product to look at.

Don't get me wrong, Sonic Underground is indeed a very bad show, but it is still better one made IMO than Sonic X.

Oh don't worry, I'm sure 4Kids would have loved to make a pillow fight between Sonic and Eggman.

I swear, how do those incompetent buffoons stay in business? They've butchered and warped every animated show they could get their hands on, and yet they're still kicking.

Why is no one demanding this company be held responsible for its crimes of degradation to animated shows? If I had made an animated tv show that was really cool and then see 4Kids butcher and rape it, I'd have taken them to court and sue them big time.

Wow, that is bad. I hated Chris too, but the thought of wanting him dead in the show never crossed my mind. Of course, if I had watched every episode of his pathetic performance, I'd probably be thinking that too.

Just curious, did you feel the same way about Sera in Sonic OVA?

I never thought you'd stoop that low. xD.png Personally though, she wasn't as bad as Amy, but still very irritating. And I know I'm not the only one who has this question, why does she have a tail?!?

I really have no idea. It too baffled me.

One idea I had that is very off the wall and very sick I should add was the fact her Dad actually slept with a Mobian cat, thus having a human child with cat ears and a tail. *shudders* Man, just writing that sent chills up my spine. Of course, that explanation is the least likely, but at the time that was the only that sadly made sense.

But realistically, the reason why for I do believe Sara has these bizarre accessories after doing some research about it is the fact its a common fad in Japanese anime, known as cat girls. I actually find this really stupid since there's no point to it. It doesn't make the anime girls any more attractive or interesting.

Thats for sure. Was everybody a furry in the 90s or something? Were these 'cat girls' so fascinating they had to be everywhere? Its like besides SatAM, SEGA could never make a decent female character. Amy, Blaze, Sara, Marine....the list goes on and on and they're all terrible. sleep.gif

So true.

While I did find a few of the Sonic gals from the other 3 Sonic shows were decent, most of them were not.
