Correct me if im wrong, but after a lil' research I came to realise that next year, Sonic the comic online will be 20-freakin'-years old! Gosh! Putting things into view like that is crazy, meaning this online community will be 20 years old!!
I joined this forum back in feb 2004, and tried to be a consistant (...ish) member for the first few years. You think this community will always be here. Till the end of all time. That I could...ya'know, jump back in and see how people are at any time. Over those years I drifted away, came back around 2010, left again, returned in 2015, drifted away again and the process was a repeat. I took this place for granted, and it is one of my biggest regrets ever letting myself drift away. I was 14 when I joined...im now nearly 34.
I made some wonderful friends here, which I also let drift away. I dont think anyone will remember me...but as nostalgia brought me back, I checked my inbox and my reaction was "woah!! I forgot how much I used to talk to these people!!"
Running down memory lane, I found old messages from members such as Calisto (about doing joint-artwork for a spin-off comic from the next member I will name), Weapon1project (formerly Ronson - the script writer to the "Phoenix project"), Super Sonic (talking about car's and driving your dads Honda Accord!), Dave (about random sillyness), Mambo-Cat (about learning to drive, working in Asda and other things), Spudiator (about motorbikes!), Chaos Controller (about being invited to be in a "south park" style group photo - god I wish I still had that), Baxter (who wrote me a Poem!!!), SSC2 and more!!!!
Looking back I realised...man, id grown up with these people...they accepted me in a time when I was an un-diagnosed autistic pain in the butt. And now, having steered my life back into a more positive place, back doing artwork and 2d hand drawn animation (in a Don Bluth crossed with Anime style), this place made me realise that....STC-O was home. I am homesick right now. I wonder where you all are, how you are all doing...and I wish I could speak to you guys again...but I wouldnt even know where to begin.
This brings me onto the point. STC-O will be 20 years old just next year....and it seems SUCH A SHAME that nobody will be here to celebrate it. Maybe im wrong; hell I hope im wrong, and that word gets out and many old members decided to log in...for old times sake, and for but one moment, we can take ourselfs back, to the good old days.
Hoping you are all well, and bless each and every one of you. Thanks for the memorys.
