Aw thanks. I try. ;) This divide in the Sonic fandom really depresses me. All the bashing and the "my Sonic canon eats your Sonic canon" crap is just pointless. Sure I have my preferences, but so does everyone else. People should just learn to be respect that. And personally, it pleases me greatly that my favorite childhood obsession is still alive and kickin', unlike so many of my other fandoms that have died and been forgotten over the years.
Re: #3 - When someone mentions Sonic, I have to speak.
