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?

@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:24 PM)

Finally!

@  RedMenace : (21 July 2015 - 05:02 PM)

Woooo! The site's back up! Three cheers for Kef!

I put Marine in 11th place in my top 20 worst character in the Sonic Franchise. Yes, it's a video that i've made in french too. But if you want to see by curiosity....

 

I kinda pains me to see stuff like this in the Sonic fanbase.

 

I mean, yeah... Everyone hates something (it's human nature), but if you hate nearly everything in the series, there's almost no point in calling yourself a fan. It be like calling yourself a Disney fan when all you like is "The Lion King" and nothing else.

 

Fortunately, not all fans are like that. There are people who see the flaws, but have learned to deal with them and think up interesting ideas from them. Take Ian Flynn for example... He isn't a big fan of Marine the Raccoon (he finds her just as annoying as everyone else does), but he learned to tolerate her and have fun writing her in the comics. That's the sign of a true fan folks.

 

Then there are those who see potential in nearly every character, whether they were misused or misinterpreted. And from what I've seen on your list, most of these characters fall into these categories. They have plenty of imagination and personality behind them, but weren't fully realized yet. For me, this goes for nearly every character in the Sonic franchise; even the ones I personally dislike (i.e. Scratch & Grounder).

 

That said, I'm suprised you didn't add Sally or Tails to your list, seeing how they've become worse over the years.

She is meh.... but im glad she isnt around anymore

Most people either like or hate her.  Personally I.......am unfortunately in the same boat as VHS and haven't played the game yet. 

 

Just to give you an idea, in Sonic Rush Adventure (the only game we see her), Sonic, Tails and even Blaze can't stand her. At some point in the game, Blaze ask Marine to not follow them because she had enough of her!

What? There's character that i liked, and some that i hate. At least in my video i gave point of why i hate them, instead of just yelling ARGH, THEY SUCK! BLAH BLAH BLAH!

 

I also intented to make a top 10 best Sonic character, but i gave up because i wasn't able to decide who should be where in the list.

 

Forcing myself to like everyone is not making me a ''true fan'' or not. Also, what is that ''hate nearly everything''? I'm not a hater, nor intented to be.

I'm not saying you are. It's just that I've seen plenty of these types of lists out there and they give the wrong impressions to many viewers. Heck, I wouldn't be suprised if these sort of videos are the very reason why Sega's been reluctant in appealing to the older audience.

 

And I'm not saying you should "force yourself to like them." All I'm saying is "show some tolerance." It might be just me, but I'm not the type of person who outright hates certain things just because it isn't executed well. For example, I don't care for Scratch and Grounder in AoStH unlike everyone else, but I've grown used to them and managed to watch most episodes of the series. That way, I can analyze what works in the series and what doesn't work.

Come on, do you really think Sega wonder around youtube, looking for random fan video?

 

Look, if you can tolerate some of the worse character, then it's fine. But some character i hate and with good reason of it. If i make such video, it's to express myself, and importanly entertain those who will watch it. It's to share fun and not-so-fun stuff with other people and having fun while doing it. Having a good laugh here and/or there and making people happy about these moment.

 

I've made these video for fun, not to tell people they should hate or anything. Maybe i could give inspiration to other at the same time, just like watching other people video inspire me to make mine as well.

Some say that he knows 2 facts about ducks, and both of them are wrong. And that 61 years ago he accidentally introduced Her Majesty The Queen to a Greek racialist. All we know is, I'm going to the tower now to have my head cut off, and he is called The Stig.

I like how people are all stoked for this Dave Polsky guy being involved because of his credits of My Little Pony and South Park. Yet a quick look on IMDB reveals he has written just 6 episodes of Pony and his South Park credits are for two episodes, one in which he was a staff writer and the other credits him for "additional material" and both those episodes are from the first season. Beyond doing 2 episodes of The Cramp Twins and being one of seven writers who wrote Scary Movie 2 (passed from writer to writer in a desperate attempt to save it!), nothing else this guy has worked on I've even heard of. And considering I don't watch the Pony show, I wouldn't know if his episodes are decent or a total bag of wank.

 

Just because this guy has his name attached to a couple of succesful projects, doesn't mean he is any good himself.

"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

Honestly, I kind of hope this doesn't come to pass. When I hear MLP in conjunction with South Park, when in reference to a possible new Sonic cartoon, the thing that comes to my mind is not AoStH or SU, but rather all those painfully unfunny Sonic Shorts you find on You Tube.
