Idea!

Well, this site's popularity isn't exactly skyrocketing. Let's face it. due to my massive success with Rants With Schnicky (which sadly will not be returning in the near future), I came up with another idea. Say we make a special team of users (myself included) who will write rants and reviews of movies, books, and of course video games. We can take requests from users and advertise on other sites we go to. It would be fun, for one thing, a nice way to keep in touch with the site and the users, and of course an outlet to advertise the forum on. Whaddya guys think?

I support it.

Cool. by the way, the site looks a lot better now. Less emo and stuff.

I think that would be awesome!

No, seriously. It looked bad before because I couldn't see anything before and it was all black. A lot better now.

I have a rant about Sonic couples I posted on the SEGA forums a while back. Not sure if I should post it here or not.

Yeah, Schnicky, it's a good idea!

I want to see some rants!

Yikes, everyone wants Schnicky's rants. Not that that's a bad thing. ;). So, Zezzy, should we start recruiting ranters/reviewers?

I love rants, but I don't sign up for a lot of places and they're not always about Sonic.

Turn the site back. It looks like someone took Sonic 4 and turned it into a website. I just don't like the colors, the look and stuff. It reminds me of default settings. People might be scared away because we look so "all about Sonic".

I don't mean this in a rude way, but I already answered that.

Turn the site back.

There's a drop-down menu to change the skin back to its original design at the bottom of every page.

So, make The Sonic Community less Sonic? Makes sense.

No, Zez, just make it less of a Fanboy Bar. But actually, forget all that. Thanks for telling me about the drop down bar. I'm happy now.

I don't understand why you want to change it back. I mean, "Yay, let's sit around on an all black board where it's impossible to tell who is who and make me feel like my life is wasted because I'm sitting in a dark shadow of piercing death!".

Well, even now, we're more into the Community side of things than the Sonic side.

Also, Schnicky's rants raise morale and are good entertainment!

Please post it. Sonic couples is a worse idea than a square wheel.

Make it official! :)
Make a blog/forum and call it Blogs... or TSC reviews...
and have it linked to the news widget in the portal... you know, instead of the TSC updates. I mean, the portal is your homepage, it'd look good if you had sonic related content, and since it's a widget that (I think) works with RSS (not that it matters xP), it'll keep updating.
It would be fun. If the reviews are professionally written and all, this could also boost activity... ^^
ooh, and like real blogs you can allow guests to reply (not create new topics), but reply to already existing ones.
TSC would be more than just a forum :D

sorry, I've had internet outage the past few days. It seems like people like the idea though.

So if this is like a blog I like the idea as well. I am not a vet here but I'm sure this can help get new active members such as myself.

So, when should we start?
