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

@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:25 PM)

Say, who made the cute picture of Beaver Chief?

Keep in mind I'm new to forums but I been thinking about this since after Sally's supposed "death" on issue 225. Have you ever wonder if Sally really died in issue 47? So I thought up my predictions after her death.
1. Sonic would probably feel deppressed and bothered by Sally's death and the events followed it, but eventually he'll eventually overcome his grief.
2. Mina and Elias probably won't exist because Sally made contact with other freedom fighters after the endgame saga along with Mina's prototype and Elias would replace Sally's inheritance to the throne.
3. Sonic would possibbly pair up with Amy.( Sonally fans agonizing about this statement while Sonamy cheering with glee)
That's all I can think of and feel free to make your own aftermath of Sally's death on issue 47.
P.S. I don't hate Sally Acorn, I just thought of it and want to express it.
Also another thing to add is that possibly Karl Bollers's creations and storylines would probably won't exist.

Hmmm...

You make alot of interesting points here. Mina and Elias probably wouldn't have been introduced into the series.

Still, I think the better question is, what would have happened if Ben Hurst actually wrote for the comic instead of Ken Penders during that time?

If sally died........
1. Id shoot mahself. She is the only one of the group who actually dished smartalecky remarks back at sonic, therefore, favorite char.
2. Amy would go after sonic, no doubt.
3. Sonic would die a little on the inside.

Who knows. Maybe follow the SatAM show faithfully with his own quirks adding to the comic.

Don't quote me on this, but waaaaaay back (like 6 years or so) I was told that Ben was once offered to write what would of been season 3 for the comic, maybe as little side stories in the main comic or perhaps Archie would of done a mini/maxi-series. However, the pay offer was too small and Ben had hopes of getting season 3 animated, so he turned it down.

"The Devil Inside is the new scam from director William Something Something. The movie stars actors and was edited on a computer. Somewhere. This movie is the latest film in a series of very low budget films designed to look like real movies! And be released in theaters to make a quick buck via a horribly off kilter budget to profit ratio that the general public seem to be stupidly unaware of! These films use to be called 'direct to video' but now they are called 'first run features'. These films then vanish from the theaters, like a rapist leaving the scene of a crime." - Mike Stoklasa of RedLetterMedia

Update:
4. Ian Flynn might not be the writer of the Archie Sonic comics when he fan at the time, quit reading the comics since Sally was gone, or got into it after the Endgame saga, though this is speculation.

Sadly, I don't see that happening.

While I would like to have a new writer since Ian has clearly wore out his welcome here, I doubt it will ever happen.

I didn't mean that Ian would leave the comics right now. This is just would happen if the fans didn't intervene Sally's death. No offense.

Yea, you're right about that.

But unfortunately, I don't see the fans intervening like before.

They're mostly into SegaSonic now to even care.

Sad really.

If Sally died way back in 47....I don't think the comic would have lived so long.

All and all, maybe that would have been better than we got now.

I don't know...

This whole Archie series has become one big mess as of late.

Well, to be honest, it's been a mess for years now.

But it really seemed to go off the tracks after issue 200.

It's like Ian decided to really try some bizarre experiments from that point.

A little, but Sega's the one who had things changed so Sally was alive in the end, NOT fan letters or anything like that. Give credit where credit is due, don't blame fans for "not saving her again" when they didn't really do it the first time.

As much as I would like to think the fans made Penders change his mind, I know deep down it wasn't.

It was Sega. They demanded she live through End Game.

No way do I see Sega demanding this again.

They couldn't care less about Sally now.

I know it is disheartening, I try not to lose hope but it is difficult. If he really has killed Sally off I think Ian should leave the comic book and be replaced with someone who would bring Sally back, and we fans should really push that if needed. I know people had said I have gone too far(that is mostly what I get when I speak out on Ian's board) when I say that, but I think Ian has gone too far if he has killed off Sally. Yes, I know Sally is just a cartoon character but still.

The thing Ian seems to forget, or doesn't care about, is the fact Sally is part of this comic's foundation.

Yes, it is Sonic's comic, and he is the main star, but she is one of the cogs that the series runs on.

And while it is true this move was tried once before by Ken Penders, at least to his credit, he did try to give her a respectful sendoff.

Ian on the other hand, I think she'll be just another cannon fodder casualty to him.

"Oh, Sally died? Oh well, too bad, so sad."
:stirthepot:

Now, of course, I could be mistaken about this. Maybe Ian will make it so the others are deeply affected by it and shows the tragedy it could become.

But the way he handled Sally in Other-M just makes think otherwise.

Let's face it, this is a guy who doesn't really respect the characters he kills off.

As much as I hated Tommy Turtle in the comic, he didn't even give that guy a proper goodbye.

The attitude was, "Yea, thanks for saving the day, Tommy. Wonder what's on TV now?"

The only one that he maybe did somewhat respectful was Locke, but even then there was no memorial service, not much of Knuckles mentioning his deceased father, or even showing a place of tribute."

I mean, c'mon, Ian! Knuckles lost his father. That's not something he can just have a few angst moments and then move on as if it still doesn't affect him.

Anyway, back to original topic point.

If I thought the fans demanding Ian lose his job for his incompetent writing would do any good, I would have sent a letter after 225.

But I know Archie. They don't give a crap about what the fans think.

The only language they understand is money. Make them lose enough profits, and maybe then they'll get the hint.

Tell that to Ian's fanbase because they would defend defend his job to the end and some of the older ones would go to the extremes though not all would think like that.
