New Feature: User Submitted Links
A few days ago, we hinted at a possibility of some new features around Camp Sonic – features which would help integrate our community deeper into the greater Sonic community. The first of those features which recently launched is none other than our “User Submitted Links“.
User Submitted Links is our way of allowing everyday viewers of Camp Sonic to share their discoveries far and wide, as well as our personal way of giving back to the Sonic Community. There are A LOT of awesome sites and resources out there that go by unseen do to the fact that it can be hard to break into the Sonic Community. With User Submitted Links we’re giving new faces a way to help promote their sites – while at the same time giving readers here a constant flow of enjoyable reading material & media.
It’s very simple. Anyone can Submit a Link (URL, Title, Short Description) which will immediately go into a moderation queue. Once approved, that link will wait in line to be shared with our viewers on every page of Camp Sonic for at least 24 hours.
This provides a wonderful new way to distribute Sonic & SEGA related content from around the web, and also allows webmasters who can’t afford advertising to easily promote interesting content on their sites. There is no link-back required, no registration, heck – we don’t even ask for an email address. The only thing we do ask is that you take care to only submit High Quality content which our readers will enjoy. You know, things like:
- Sonic related articles, links, videos, music, art.
- SEGA related articles, links, videos, etc.
- Please link to the specific article rather than a homepage.
- If linking to a Forum post, please use the specific post’s permalink.
- Anything else the SONIC community may find interesting!
On a final note, I hope that you’ll all keep an eye on the user submitted links as they roll in. You can find them in the right menu, currently under the “Recently Discussed” block. We’ll try to update it with awesome content every 2 hours or so, that way there’s always something new to see!

@Umiyuri: O yea opposite of blaze
THAT MAKES SENSE lol
@Chosenoneknuckles: I like both Archie and Sonic the Comic. PORKER LEWIS CAN’T LOSE~
@Umiyuri: Ah, so cool. XD What about Eggman’s name…either his similarity to an Egg or a Beatles reference. XD
@Chosenoneknuckles: I like both Archie and Sonic the Comic. PORKER LEWIS CAN’T LOSE~
Good to hear. ^-^
DAMN THAT JOHNNY LIGHTFOOT, WHY’D YOU HAVE TO GO AND DIE?!
@iNAUDiBLE: They say that the ‘Eggman’ name was a big problem in Western countries because of ‘I Am The Walrus’, which is why it changed to Dr Robotnik in most European and American countries. In Italy, it became Dr Zachary… which, oddly, is the name of a StC character.
@Chosenoneknuckles: Johnny died because nobody at Fleetway liked him any more. Johnny was dull, he’d always been dull and that was why he had to die, to paraphrase.
@Chosenoneknuckles: Johnny was awesome. Heh, I like Archie and all, but I have to give Fleetway props for being a bit more related to the games.
@Umiyuri: I sure do hope that you know that they were being sarcastic about that Johnny statement. :P Sounds like something they’d say about Tommy Turtle!
Dirty humes, always trying to keep him down!
You mean they actually got into trouble with copyright peeps due to that? Ah man. XD
@iNAUDiBLE: I was quoting Kitching, I think. I don’t know if he was being sarcastic or not, but he said it to the rest of the guys and it did result in killing him off.
From what I hear of Tommy Turtle, he’s supposed to be ‘that long lost friend everybody knew but just wasn’t brought up before’… LET’S KILL ‘IM! Fluffy?
“Rrrrrready!”
It just hit me. Fluffy the Werehog as Scooby Doo. He gets Sonic Snacks (AKA chilidogs).
@Umiyuri: Eh, it could go either way.
Yeah, I don’t even know what issue he first appeared in or if he had any crucial role…I think he was part of a gag comic in the first Sonic the Hedgehog issues…had a rocket powered skateboard. XD
AHAH~ Amy as Daphne, Tails as Velma, Vector as Fred, and Big as Shaggy!
*bursts out laughing*
AND EGGMAN WOULD’VE GOTTEN AWAY WITH IT TOO IF IT WEREN’T FOR THOSE MEDDLING KIDS AND THEIR WEREHOG.
The sonic names link isnt very good find a better one please.
*trying not to sound insulting*
I am baaaaaack!

I once dreamed on vacation that I was home and wanted to check here,but then I woke up in my tent..
Weird.
Just submitted some tiny strands of info [and possible art] about a possible new Unleashed character being revealed in its manga.
@dragonite: very much so.
Lucky your hols happened while the gaming universe went to sleep lol but theres always new stuff if you look hard enough.
I just go to the user submitted links! I’ll say it again, brilliant idea!
@Chosenoneknuckles: That sounds promising.

@Chosenoneknuckles: That sounds promising.
Which link is it?

http://www.gamepro.com/news.cfm?article_id=206429
oopps it is sonic (not camp sonic)
intresting,,,
funny that sonic began to have trouble when then started the whole ”roots” thing with heroes.
That game was decent and fun ,but lacked flow.
@Nano: I guess that’s a good sign.
By the way, since we’re well over E3 now, are there any big events before November?
@Jerbba:i dont know but what i heard is that sega is going to make more demos of sonic unleashed until the game is out.
Ayaaah, T. Ohtani’s MySpace?? I love it when the people who work on the games are crazy enough about them that they stick pictures of the characters all over their page…
Hey, HES CRAZY LIKE DAT!
SHOUT OUT TO TOHTANI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hmm since it didn’t seem to get accepted by the CampSonic User Links panel, now then I’ll post it here:
