This week on Sonicdom Tabloids: New Racoon Causes Wank!

You know something? Everytime Sonicdom complains about new characters, I roll my eyes and yawn. Don't they get sick fighting about the same goddamn thing over and over again? But yeah. SEGA's been adding new characters since their first game on the Genesis. TOUGH PATOOTIE.

I don't get the whole Cream ripoff thing either. When I first saw her, Cream didn't come to my head until people whined about it. 'Cause yeah, small character + big baby eyes + cute exterior + big smile = Cream. ZOMG DUZ DAT MEAN CHARMY COPIED CREAM!?!111/! (Yes, I know Charmy was created first. I'm just using an example) People already assume she's Blaze's new buddy. Jumping to conclusions much? She could be a thief for all I care. Also, we don't know a THING about the racoon's personality. Remember the last several years where Blaze and Silver were written as Shadow ripoffs before their release? OH HO HO HO were they ever wrong. (Especially on Silver!) Complain about something new to SEGA plz.

Finally, the fangirls and BNFs who claim SEGA "stolen" their precious recolors and plan to sue. "OMG SHEZ A RACCOON. SO IS MINE. I'VE BEEN PLAGERIZED!111" "ZOMG MY CHARRIES BROWN AND SO'S SHE I HATE YOU SEGA YOU COPIED MEEEEEE". Um, STFU?

I only have one Sonic character and he's a computer. :P When I entered levels like Mad Matrix in ShtH, did you see ME waving my arms in fury because "ZOMG THEYRE USING COMPUTERZ THEY RIPPED OFF P.A.N.D.O.R.A!!!11!11" Thought so.

Geez. I swear that Sonicdom is still stuck in the Middle Ages. And of course, still makes me reach for aspirin.

Here, have a shiny Maria icon for your efforts.

By the way, you wouldn't happen to have a picture of this new character, would you?

man i know just what you mean. I saw her and thought "omg cute!" then immediatly afterwards "oh sigh, people are going to start complaining arnt they?" I almost, ALMOST thought people maybe wouldn't complain because complaining about new characters is so overdone... guess not!

Thankyou. Though at least this time I managed to avoid most of the wank on my usual Sonic forums. I don't want the headache and annoyance kaythx.

*sigh* I keep mellow on things. But when I get smacked in even the LEAST dramatic places, it's... arg. It's irritating.

Hee hee! Maybe I can try making that myself. <3333

I think it's...kind of ironic that I want to jump on the bandwagon with everyone here and agree with you over the endless wank and annoyance?

Isn't that anti-wank in the highest degree? *SHOT* I'll just shut up now; I'm confusing myself here.

Personally, she's look adorably spunky and mischievous. I don't mind the absolute plethora of new characters we keep getting; I just hope Sega doesn't forget the ones we already have. Decent Knuckles backstory plz.

And EEEE Kronk icon = LOVE

I can never understand why they're always so SURPRISED that there's a new character. I'm only surprised when there isn't!

And then the saaaame argument comes up and it suddenly turns the topic into 17 pages of "WHY DEY MAKE NU CHARACTER" "SHE LOOKS LIKE BLAH BLAH BLAH" "I LIEK HER" "OMG Y SHE LAAAAME!" "DIS WHY I NO LIKE HER" "I GIVE HER CHANCE" and it's all very boring and repetitive because it's all based on a single piece of character art =/

The same argument. Every time. This is why I'm not bothering with the fandom anymore =P

Hahaha! Exactly. XD

They remind me of the people who are shocked that Sonic slash exists. Err... yeah! It does! :DDD I want to hit my outdated fandom sometime.

Welcome to Puri's Cuddle Circle, Sonicdom Wank-Free and Fangirling-Full. ♥

Pfft! Where there is fandom, there is slash, that's inevitable! It's not my thing, but I accept that others like it. Whiney internet fellows ain't gonna change it.

The Cuddle Circle is awesome beans, tis free of sillitude and the like!

Whaaaaat? That raccoon girl I saw fanart for when I was browing dA's top favorites the other day; she's actually an official character? o_o I had no idea! I didn't go in for a closer look, so I assumed she was another fan character. I wasn't expecting it, because the last few character additions (Blaze, Silver, Shadow) have been a little on the darker side, so seeing a cute little one with pigtails all of a sudden is now throwing me for a loop! XD

I can't believe people are passing such harsh judgement on her already! ;_; Does anyone even know her name yet? I feel really bad for her, and I know nothing about her yet!

Although... although I kinda hope she's not Blaze's sidekick like Cream was, 'cause I thought it was neat seeing Cream with Blaze like Tails with Sonic! However, I'd like to see her as a playable character :D And better still, give her Charmy as a lackey, and have the two-player co-op a la Sonic 2/3/etc! XD

I'm not a particularly involved StH fan, especially when it comes to SEGA!Sonic, so I'm unfamiliar with the furore that accompanies new characters. Is it bad?

Basically, SEGA tends to release a new character for the latest game. Sometimes exclusive--sometimes not. Basically fanbrats grow sharp fangs and complain about the Sonic series having too many characters. When it was big in the first place! XD (If you count Robotnik's Badniks such as Caterkiller and such. XDDD!)

Best to be on the outside. Only the brave dare to tread Sonicdom, especially SEGAverse. @.@;;;

Since typing that I went on a shufti around the SEGA!Sonic fandom. Whoo-wee, them be some mighty vicious fanbrats. And I thought SatAM-ers could be bad - at least they can spell and (usually) construct a coherent argument for why [insert petty issue of the week] stinks.

It's... yeek. Now they're complaining because of the AoStH boxset? Why? Because the series sucks? Lack of DVD extras?

Nope. They're throwing an apocalypse over painting errors. Um... exsqueeze me? Nothing like a little paint and whiteout can do if it bothers ya so much? Sheesh, they should be glad they have DVDs at all. :P

Bleeeeeegh. That's why I'm branching my horizons. Part of the fandom life, I guess. Here's Bunnie to cheer ya up, darlin'. ;D

(Do you have AIM or maybe MSN? I'd love to chat sometime. ^^)

I have a possum character and a wolf character. When SEGA comes out with a possum or a wolf, I WILL WHINE SOOOO MUCH.

SOOOOOO MUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCH.

You know the only similarity between Cream and the girl is? The fur thing around the eyes. That's like it. I honestly don't see any other comparisons. She looks outgoing and adventurous, someone who'd try to race against Sonic no matter what the odds are. She also looks a bit feisty, like a raccoon would.
