Camp Sonic Discussion Guidelines Updated

I’m not real big on ‘rules’.  For me at least, they never seem to always work, and quite often there are exceptions that can make things real complicated (take the US Tax Code for example).

Alas, some rules are needed, and it’s about that time we set some boundaries for the discussions here at Camp Sonic.  We’ll keep it short and sweet, but at the same time, try to carve out some easy ways to promote valuable discussion here at the Camp.

So, without taking any more of your time:

Comment Deleted / Not Showing?

  • Don’t tell us what post you are. If you’re first, we’ll know.  Promise. Otherwise, if you write “First!111!!!one!” and end up being 12th, you just look like a fool, and end up taking up room with two comments (the second being your recovery comment letting us know that you were not first… which again, we already knew).
  • Be intelligent. No, you don’t need to be a college graduate to post here — heck, even an elementary student can get by… but we do ask that you do your best to sound intelligent when you speak.  We are looking for valuable discussion here, which is difficult to come by when we cant reed wut ur sayin. k?
  • Be respectful.  You don’t need to always agree with others to be respectful, we just ask that you stray away from personal attacks.  Also, respect the fact that we are a blog with viewers from both sexes of all ages.  I won’t lecture you on a potty mouth here, but if you’re going to be crude, please do it elsewhere.
  • Wait!!!?!?! I followed all of those rules, but my comment still isn’t showing!  What’s going on? To help reduce spam on Camp Sonic, we’ve taken measures that prevent some comments from being shown without being approved first by a moderator.  Some things that will trigger a comment being held for moderation include having 2+ links in a comment, or posting a naughty word in a comment.

How to get Insta-Banned

  • Be malicious!
  • Spam!
  • Steal something from us (under which case we’ll file a DMCA complaint if need be)!

It’s real simple folks, and I don’t think we’ll have too much of a problem with any of the rules (we hardly do at this point anyways).  If you’ve got questions, or concerns, let us know.  If you think you’re interested in a moderation position, check out our Jobs page.

    @David Leggett:
    I just read your reply. You mistook what i meant. i meant for example, if you are 10, you should type normally with a few errors. if your 13, you should use good grammar.

    Old comment(…they should type like their age…)

    Your reply(…won’t make them reveal their age…)(mis-understanding)

    Also, how do i make smileys?

    @Xeternalstar: Also yur right about the Wii graphics

    If anybody played Sonic Rush/Rush Adventure and seen the cutscenes, the graphics are the same as the Sonic Unleashed Wii scans

    IMO not good 1st of all i liked Rush Adventure WAY better and 2nd of all not alot of CG action in the DS games

    So looking at SU for the Wii, you can expect unique graphics but (lets face it) nowhere NEAR CLOSE to XBOX 360 GRAPHICS

    AND ANOTHER THING I’M A NINTENDO FAN ALL DA WAY

    I PLAY GAMES FOR THE GAMES, NOT GRAPHICS

    BUT LETS FACE IT THE WII HAS LAME GRAPHICS!!!!!!!!

    ALSO……….(Sonic ZOOMS in.)

    Sonic: WHOA! SLOW DOWN!

    (Takes a deep breath.)

    ok, sry i’m back again. THANKS SONIC!

    comments?

    i think they are badniks, anyway welcome to campsonic jrdude
    how come nobody welcomed me when i first posted on the chao importance thing? if you look at the wii scans you can actually imagine what sonic will look like in the wii version, i think he looks very good in fact you guys remember those old 360 pictures in africa, im starting to think those were actually wii pictures cause they dont look as good as the new 360 pics, i think the wii could handle those graphics and more, have you guys seen the no more heroes for wii screens, they look like 360 graphics to me so ya, and the 360 pictures are not the best graphics for that console i mean seriously if they made a secret rings for 360 and released screens of it people would be fighting over wether the wii could handle those graphics, just cause a game is for 360 doesnt mean the wii version of said game cant compete with those graphics i hope you understand what i mean…the wii version could have “all the polygons and stuff” from the 360 version sheesh. JUST BECAUSE A GAME IS FOR 360 DOESNT MEAN ITS GRAPHICS ARE GODLIKE!!!!!!!!!!!! *calms down**takes a deep breath* that what im trying to point out people, deal with it. so what do you guys think about what im saying? ow my fingers are cramping from all that typing owowowowowowowow! all better. whoa KC cross calm down! =cD opinions please

    I pretty much agree with everything said here- the good ideas, bad ideas, all in pertaining to the new rules.

    But I do have another question people here have failed to ask regarding Unleashed:

    Will Sega include new information on games past Sonic and the Black Knight in Unleashed?

    I don’t know about coloration for those Chao, but the explanation for the blurriness was because it was from one of the Wii Scans posted in the NP Article.

    I was looking more into the shape, I even paused the movie when they zoomed, went back to the full image without Zoom, and they still look like Chao to me. But, they could be a Number of things. So for right now, I guess it’s just rumors and speculation on whether the chao will even make an apperance. If nothing else, we at least have the Chao is the Dark Brotherhood to look forward too =D
