Talk:Sonic the Hedgehog
Known Sonicfag Lolcows
Recently, a whole lot of links to Sonic fucknuts has been removed from the article. That's a big change, and I really think it would be better to keep all the freaks in one place. Would do you guys think about bringing them back to the article? Or at least Alix Henriol. Removing a one-line mention of her? Fuck, she deserves her own article. --Gseed 15:54, 5 August 2011 (UTC)
- If you read the edit summary, you'll see that it was done to improve the relevance and quality of the section. There's no point just listing random jackoffs that think Rouge is hot or who draws terrible recolors, you could list half the users on GameFAGs on those grounds. I removed the descriptions of people who didn't have their own articles and hadn't done anything to distinguish themselves from your typical Sonicfag. Alix Henriol can be put back in, I didn't realize until after I made the edit that she ran Sonic Cult or whatever the hell it is, but I really don't think the other ones I removed are noteworthy enough to be included. Otherwise the article will be flooded with mentions of random people posted in an unfavorable light. Totensiediefurfag 17:03, 5 August 2011 (UTC)
- Yeah, sorry for letting it get that bad. I felt that some of these people deserved a mention in that section, yet I wanted people to know why they were there while trying not to flood it so bad. Shit like that was what I was trying to avoid from the get go, but did nothing to stop it(in fact I helped fuck it up). It wasn't so bad until others started adding a bunch of fantards that have barely done anything in the fanbase(ex. Nicochi, raveakidd,etc.). This is where I fucked up and also started doing the same shit as them adding people like Silver_hedgie. I didn't want to get into an edit war with anyone over the additions, so I just tried fixing them(apparently they don't know how to use the show preview button) while also trying to fill in red links. It obviously got out of hand. --HyperPeanut 21:08, 5 August 2011 (UTC)
- So what about taking all the not-so-notable Sonicfags and put them in a "Trolling" section on the bottom, while keeping those, that are really worth mentioning in the "Notable..." section? That way we can keep both the uber-lolcows, as well as "random jackoffs that think Rouge is hot". You can't deny their existence, and it could really be put to good use. --Gseed 08:29, 6 August 2011 (UTC)

- I remember that before ED was taken down, somebody mentioned that there should be a split subgroup from the Furfaggotry portal that contained every article related to Sonicfags known as a Sonictard/Sonicfag portal. Perhaps in the main article we could create a dropdown Sonicfag portal and link this article to there to keep this place from getting cluttered?--Robot_House
- I don't think that's big enough for its own portal. Category, maybe, but even that's a longshot. As for the trolling section idea, that doesn't really solve the problem. The idea of removing them from the article completely was to only list notables, because otherwise people will start adding links to everyone they don't like and this will be an exhibit B article before too long. HyperPeanut has confirmed that this is what happened the first time. I think that as a general rule, if they don't have their own article, they're not really worth mentioning. I'm not saying articles should be written on these people, mind you. If someone pumps out a crap article, it will just be deleted and we're back to square one. If there's ample substance and drama already in evidence, an article can be made, but if there isn't any drama, it's a crappy article.
tl;dr Portal idea won't fly with the admins, we should only list people notable enough to have their own article on ED. Totensiediefurfag 17:35, 6 August 2011 (UTC)
- The reason they where deleted I reckon, is because nobody wants to read about some shitty deviantart user who was mildly popular in mid-2007 and has been posted by some dumb-fuck stating "CHEK IT OUT I SAW THES ON DA INT3RN3T AND ITS A BUNCH OF FAGOTRY!!!!!11 OMG LOL CH3K IT OUT I CALAD IT FAGOTRY ISNT TAHT LULZY!11!!! WTF LOL". Do they now? - Another n00b 21:38, 6 August 2011 (UTC)
- Yeah, that pretty much sums it up. Totensiediefurfag 04:37, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
Missing pics
The first one was a photo from some expo maybe, with a 14-year-old dressed in white and blue (nothing overtly "Sonic") and a baseball cap, posing with two thumbs up and a giant gap between his teeth.
The second one was a guy in a piss-poor Sonic "costume", holding up to the camera a card that said "God messed up on this one".
Kudos to anyone who finds those and puts them back under Sonic the Hedgehog#The Fanbase section. --Gseed 07:17, 26 February 2012 (EST)

lol at the comment sections. Sconic has so many die-hard fans (probably all DeviantArt artists, if you know what I mean). --JuniusThaddeus 22:33, 29 July 2014 (EDT)
- "Does asking these kind of questions make you want to: Like, Subscribe, Thumbs Up, Retweet this video? LET’S FIND OUT!!!"
- I don't know who these people are, what they do for a living, or what the video is about, but I hate them already for that one line. Save the whales! Adoph-in Hitler needs an army! 00:48, 30 July 2014 (EDT)
- It's a joke. --JuniusThaddeus 09:20, 30 July 2014 (EDT)
- Considering that they only have 2 videos that break the 10,000 view mark, it's most likely not a joke. I'm not defending the series or anything, but they could be just a couple of attention whores trying to use controversy to their advantage.
- It's entirely fitting then that it is posted on a site based around drama. Excellent find. Save the whales! Adoph-in Hitler needs an army! 23:43, 30 July 2014 (EDT)

Blue Arms
Apparently changing Sonic's arm color is an "autistic trigger" of some kind which sets off the "sensory overloads" in autistic man-children... much in the same way you can enrage Lego-tards by calling them Legos instead of the "proper" Lego. As such, I will attempt to recolor every last pasty armed version of Sonic with blue armed versions... for no other reason than to cause epic levels of tard rage in Sonic fans! :D
