I thought we were going to stop doing this. If Matt reopened the old wounds himself, that'd be one thing, but all I see is ACStrife egging him on even though (AFAIK) nobody really wants him to anymore.

[MattSullivan]

Know what Furrykef. You're right. Of course AC is egging me. I'm just going along with it :] Or, I was. I feel I've made my point. ( though it's been kind of ignored so AC and others can poke the beehive to see what kind of reaction they/you can get. I'm not biting. I'm just gonna....go awaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy....................................

Anywho, I'm satisfied anyway. I wanted to know a few things I didn't know about and I got em. Not much more can be said here that we don't already know about. So lets move onto other things.

NOW! My idea of a reboot of the series you know for kicks and giggles I really am a fan of the Mobius is Earth. I think it would be really interesting to see the ruins of New York for example, or another major city called another name or the like. I'm kinda torn between the chaos emeralds playing a role as a part in the reboot also. I mean in the games they always seem to rear their heads. And call me crazy I would love to know more about the dragon population too on Mobius. You know why Robotnik was siphoning power from the dragons, and what purpose it would serve.

Course I'm doing some wishful thinking, but don't we all now?

Believe me. I'm the King of wishful thinking. I'm still hope for a Theatrical Sonic SatAM Movie (or any other kind of Cinematic Sonic Movie)!

But a Reboot SatAM Show would be Awesome, too! It could be something like a "Ultimate SatAM". The ruins of New York could be called Megaopolis.
... and a revamped Version of Dulcy could be very interesting...

Yes the dragons I dunno if I liked em fat and quadriped. I was thinking biped like the rest of the mobians that are around. I think of them as a warrior race, very traditional in their ways.

WOAH, this place has drastically changed since I was here. Such a commendable job on the redesign. Its refreshing to see a new coat of paint on a site that hasnt been updated in half a decade. Awesome work!

Now, you're probably all wondering what compelled me to comb through the outskirts of FUS after all this time. For one, passive curiosity since its been well over a year when I last visited this place. Two, I noticed that my name has been brought up a couple times on here from a random google search. Its how discovered how this place was still active cause on occasion, I will search my name to see if anyone has finally dropped the whole “Green Eye” controversy I stired up 2 years ago. Yeah, hard to believe its been that long, but people still tend dwell on the subject even though its irrelevant.

So Matt, great to see that youre still interested in Sonic and I can understand why youre reluctant to even continue. If you still plan on pursuing a pitch or anything else to get SatAM off the ground again, kudos to you dude. While I still hold a high appreciation for SatAM, the passion for it has gradually diminished ever since I completed that 1 minute segment of my fan film. Sure, it was still debased and harshly criticized, but to me, it was closure and enabled me to finally move on. Its why I havent been frequent in the fan base in the past year. Not only that, the Archie Comics have trekked on territory that felt offensive. Not cause of the whole Mecha Sally story arc, but how convoluted the writing has become. It came to the point where I just stopped caring about Sonic in general and sold all my merchandise and collectables. Never in my life did I think Id ever sell my rare and elusive Sally plushie, but I honestly think it was for the best. When an obsession consumes you to the point where it clouds your judgement, thats when you need to acknowledge that you have a problem and Im glad I did a couples months shy of turning 30.

Reflecting on my past antics and drama I instigated over the years, made me realize how much of a bitter, delusional fanboy I was degenerating into. The fact that I was constantly hunting for praise was a sign of how insecure I was at the time. So last year, I made a bold decision and completely disconnected myself from Sonic and fanbases in general. By that, I mean that I deterred my communication and interaction with other fans in order to protect myself and become more mentally stable.

This sorda leads into the whole Brony craze I was inadvertently coaxed into. it was strange how my departure from Sonic opened up a new world for me to explore and I became so infatuated with this new My Little Pony reboot. The animation, the sight gags, clever writing, well developed characters. This became the NEW SatAM for me. For once in over a decade, I actually found myself waking up early on saturdays anxiously awaiting for a new episode to air. Now while I am heavily invested in the show, youll notice that I have NEVER posted on any Pony related forum, site or chat room. I have remained independent from the online community in fear that I might repeat the same mistakes I did with the Sonic fanbase. The only time Ive actually interacted with Bronies, was during meet ups I attended. Let me tell you, these people are probably the most endearing and genuine people Ive ever had the pleasure of hanging out with. The message of love and tolerance extends on deeper levels as they support and care about their friends. Its an environment that I truly needed and it really helped my self-steem.

As for my employment? I went back to my true passion. Designing promotions and advertisements for local indie bands while still actively seeking full time work. Like someone mentioned, the economy is shit so you gotta take whats available.

Anyway guys, I just wanted to shed some light on a few things and bring everyone up to speed on how my life has been.
FYI, I really enjoyed every aspect of Sonic Generations. Sega really is getting back on track again.

Ohhhhhhhh boy.

Nice to see you return Kuta, you may not remember me, I was that one guy who wouldn't send hate messages and comments on your videos at youtube, lol. But welcome to herd anyhow. *brohoof*



You hear that AC? Looks like we got another brony here.

Yeah... thanks for stopping by with a life update, but we aren't playing this game anymore with you on FUS, not again. Bye bye.

Alright, I don't quite remember the things Kuta did that was so damaging, but couldn't we just give him a little chance like we did with MA-X? Or can I at least get a quick reminder of why he's to be avoided at all costs?

[acstrife]

Yes it would also appear I am too late. My attention was diverted.

Oh, well, and this is as far as the discussion will go (please) - it's all water-under-the-bridge-hakuna-matata as far as I am concerned with Rich. I'm just very proud of where FUS has traveled in the short time myself and Paul have owner her, and the last thing I want to do now is let it slide back to the not-so good times with old faces that always (ALWAYS) cause, directly and or indirectly, her to slide. I can see how it seems a tad unfair, Inhibitor, but I'm only getting rid of a possible problem before it possibly appears. I appreciate you speaking out like you did; I'm always happy to answer comments and concerns from out lil' community.

As for Max? I was barely involved with that bit of the past so it can't be my call (or vote, or whatever) one way or the other.

[acstrife]

Anywho, now that all that is behind us lets get back to the topic.

Oh I forgot to mention I think the old ruins of New York if memory serves is dubbed Old megalopolis. I think thats the right name for it.

What do you all think?

Sounds interesting. But the first thing that comes to my mind is "You maniacs! You blew it all up!"
