KNUCKLES CLAN REPRESENT

>>451278
Knux is shredded!
>>451280
Oh my!
>>451281
Cute butt!
>>451282
>Kisses from Sonic is fine though.
Cute and canon!
>>451286
Aww, he needs someone to wipe his tears away. Someone blue preferably!
>>451289
Shadow? More like Jerkdow
>>451290
Fucking hell
>>451292
So fancy!
>>451294
Hawt!

>>451298
>Good job, Shadow. Your jerkiness has helped these two get closer.
All according to keikaku!
>>451300
Va-va-voom!
>>451302
lmao
>>451304
Still, it's a nice place to end it

>>451306
>Knux is shredded!
I was not expecting the random six pack looking like ab armor.

>>451278
Knuckles SEXOOOOOOOOOOO

>>451275
I remember this.

>>451290
Knuckouge:
Come for the boobs
Stay for the domestic violence.

>>451304
Thanks, Conductor.

>>451322
wat
did I miss something?

>>451324
Christ. Sonic characters should never take off their gloves (or shoes), they certainly don't need those horrific looking paw pads on human hands.

>>451324
Heart!
Also, heart.

I don't know if schizo has been replying to himself this whole time or if others have taken the bait.

>>451330
What the fuck is up with Shadow looking at tails like that? He made everything worse.

>>451338
>>451338
>which is based on their other comic
Woops, nevermind, I thought it was based on Today's comic.

>>451335
The struggle of the desire to create and the desire to make shit you actually think is good...

>>451332
It's mostly him samefagging, but there are no doubt actual posters falling for it too. Really, the best way to deal with schizos is to either ignore them or trick them into making enough retarded posts in a vacuum then report them all so the mods are forced to delete them & ban them.

>Tikal: Evan Stanley
Welp, gotta say, she does a good Tikal.

Oh this thread won't last through the morning.

>>451377
And by this, I mean that.
>>451373

I'm surprised the Sonic x Violet images are still up, same with the Rouge pages.

>>451379
Every once in a while the janny seems to not be around only to come back in full force later.

>>451380
Hopefully it never comes back.
Also great thread, one of the most active ones in a while!

>>451381
Thanks. Thirstposter was a big help getting all the pages under the maximum filesize and for setting up The Archie Ride which I need to prepare for.

>>451379
Yeah, I was sure I'd be getting a warning for the Violet ones
>>451380
Speaking of, they don't seem to be deleting plus links anymore. Let's hope things stay that way
>>451382
No worries! I just sorted the images by size and then adjusted the quality slider until each came in under 4mb. Oh, and I'm up to page 6 of lettering that ABT redraw. Man, placing speech bubbles is way harder than it looks!

That one anon REALLY wants to talk/complain about the Frontiers DLC.

>>451387
I am not saying it would be out of place to talk about the lore it introduce, but it would be best to wait a couple of weeks or more so that all the shitposting get enough time to get digested before engaging.

Since people were asking, here's the link to the two megas I use for the comics, including Archie. They're in base64, but you can convert them at https://www.base64decode.org

Reposting pages from last thread to kill the current one faster? Huh.

>>451394
As the animals on the Flintstones say: It's a living. Or it would be if he didn't do it for free

>>451395
I can start a new thread soon.

>>451396
Cool!

LOL he actually instantly deleted the thread! I'll just do it again when the old thread gets to page 10.

Pretty sure only a mod can do that so either the janny has the mod on speed dial or it was the work of a mod that's been harassing us. And now they're saying that I'm the faker even though the thread is still archived on desuarchive.
https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/139722571

>>451398
This dude is the saltiest schizo/janny I've ever encountered on an imageboard. The fact that he's been at this for years is hilarious as it is sad
>>451399
I'm guessing it's a mod. Imagine sucking up to the mods for 2 years as a janny just to level up your do-it-for-free status.

>>451399
Yeah, sorry. I just assumed you were the schizo since it happened so quick and it coincided with him trying to spam the thread. But I'm not even surprised that it's our usual psycho mod/janny combo.

>>451400
Considering the state of /co/ and that we're the ones getting targeted is like an orphanage in Detroit getting closed down.
>>451401
I just don't think about it. What happens happens.
>>451402
No biggie.

The Sonic maid got deleted. Maybe best not to aggravate them or else they'll go crazy.

>>451401
At least we'll always have here. Our special friend wouldn't dare post anywhere he doesn't have his janny powers
>>451402
It was incredibly fast. I guess he was filling up the thread and waiting for that to happen
>>451403
>Considering the state of /co/ and that we're the ones getting targeted is like an orphanage in Detroit getting closed down.
Imagine if he put an ounce of the effort he puts into our threads into actually doing his job. 4chan's /co/ might stop looking like a crack house
>I just don't think about it. What happens happens.
Same. I just remove his posts from the archive and continue having fun in the threads
>>451404
And that's why I post crossdressing Knuckles in non-maid outfits!

>>451406
I'm still not sure how I got away with it. Clearly it's because neither of them were wearing maid outfits!

https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/139723839
Let's see how this goes.

https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/139724372
Here's the thread that one anon said was deleted before their post was deleted.

>>451409
I actually worry the mods won't let the Archie ride start until the aftermath story time reach page 10.

>>451410
I don't say anything anywhere because I don't want to give them ideas.

Thirstposter, just want to make sure that everything in the zips are in order. Not that I doubt you but I'll just be going through the folders as they're arranged. Also curious how the other series are arranged. Basically do I go on autopilot the entire time? Which is perfectly fine for me.

If all the Archie threads are going to hit bump limit that fast then maybe a side Unofficial thread will be necessary.

>>451418
Can we even do that?

>>451419
I don't know.

Well it looks like we've got a heap of new anons in the Archie thread. We also got 1,500 visitors to the website and 15,000 page views!
>>451413
Whoops, guess who slept through the thread? I guess spending the night lettering pages wasn't the best idea! Yeah, just go by the first numbers. I tried to keep the original numbering from the Thanks Ken Penders blog so we go decimal at some points. Have you got everything downloaded?
>>451414
Wow, haven't seen that in a long time!

>>451421
>Have you got everything downloaded?
I've got the Early Years downloaded. TBH I'm planning on downloading one part, posting all the comics, then deleting them or putting them on my dropbox.

Alright, some of our posts in the fancomic thread are getting deleted. Need to figure out what about them triggered the mod.

So talking about threads will get your post deleted.

>>451422
Fair enough, I'll keep them up until the end of the Archie Ride, then move them to the Internet archive
>>451424
He's so salty, we're not even criticizing anything!

>>451425
If the threads here could consistently get a good number of people I would be tempted to just stay here all the time. Imagine the 4chan thread activity without the schizos and mod abuse.

>>451426
I'd be 100% onboard with never setting foot in that cesspit ever again. Just think, we could talk about maid outfits, walruses and cleavage without getting banned!

>>451427
Funny thing is if the mod allowed the links to here to stay in those threads, I could do a better job of getting people to visit her more often and maybe just give up on 4chan altogether. He'd finally get his wish.

>>451428
Exactly. I do wonder if including the plus links in the OP is worth another shoot. I could try posting links again next thread

>>451429
I think it's kind of too late for that. The extra people we get from /sthg/ don't care about any of that. They did mostly behave though.

I think I like the idea of a side Unofficial Thread at all times, only making a new one when the other is close to archiving. Any new comics should still be linked in the OP so it'll be easier for others to find.

>>451430
Yeah, the extra posters were from /sthg/ but we did get thousands of lurkers if the website's stats are anything to go by
>>451431
That'd be nice. Let's hope our special friend doesn't get too shitty about it

>>451432
>Let's hope our special friend doesn't get too shitty about it
They've been so active the past 24 hours they're going to burn out if they keep it up at this rate.

>>451433
Yeah, usually they're up for around 30 hours and then are burned out for a few days. It's kinda interesting that we're technically torturing him just by having fun talking about a blue rat. Also, lol at them deleting the Chat Noir image, it wasn't even lewd!

Mod is back and just deleted a bunch of posts.

>>451443
I suspect he'll be like this for weeks since we're storytiming Archie. He had a massive meltdown about people making threads for the second Sonic movie when it came out, to the point where he autosaged threads and got in trouble. I used to get off-topic warnings about posting links to the website a while back. Can't remember why he was salty about that though

Things I learned today:
1. Never post a Sonic Frontiers comic.
2. Abandon thread and hope they migrate to an IDW thread.

>>451446
>>451447
There's a reason I've long since stopped mentioning Frontiers or Amy in the threads despite being a massive Sonamyfag and as someone who actually likes Frontiers. It's just not worth dealing with the turbo schizo.

Sad thing is you can't even mention anything even VAGUELY related to Frontiers without him having a meltdown. Sage? Has a massive fucking bitchfit over how she "ruined" Eggman if you do. The End? Spergs like a motherfucker. Kocos/Ancients? A meltdown almost as large as when he shits himself over Sage. Amy/Sonic/the Sonamy stuff? Thread will be completely and utterly derailed without any hope of recovery.

He's basically Ashfag 2.0., but unlike Ashfag who you can ignore and avoid so long as you don't mention one specific character, this faggot makes it so an entire topic of discourse is irradiated.

>>451447
Cool animation, btw.

Three issues worked out better than four and it feels like less people from /sthg/ showed up so it's a little busier than our usual Unofficial threads but not crazy busy like the last two threads.

>>451452
Less issues means that the archie ride will last longer, though.

>>451455
Not necessarily a bad thing and we can have an Unofficial thread on the side.

>>451452
Yeah it's good that the thread wasn't instantly at bump limit when I checked it out today. Three issues from four was a good idea.

Also what it up with anything to do with Rotor getting deleted? Just because of that one anon that has him as his husbando? He seems pretty damn harmless but his posts are just instantly deleted by some janny. IMO I think his love of Rotor is kinda cute honestly.

>>451459
Not just that but anyone posts Rotor will get their image deleted. We've even had actual fancomic pages with him deleted. I even had pages deleted when I had my name on. The mod is just using it as an excuse to delete them for some reason. And Rotor-anon says he hasn't done anything to get his stuff deleted on sight. So I think it's only because he thirsts for Rotor and it makes the janny/mod uncomfortable.

>>451446
I try to effortpost about the comic to get things back on topic but some anons will just not shut up about it. It's a shame since there's a lot about Frontiers I want to compare with the comics
>>451452
Yeah, I missed the thread but was still able to post in the end
>>451459
Some /co/ janny/mod has a hateboner for Rotor-bro. It's ostensibly for "ban evasion" but he's always able to post on the other boards without issue. It's as the Conductor said, either his love for the walrus makes the janny uncomfortable, or Rotor-bro's unintentionally done something to wound their ego. I always respond to Rotor-bro, even though it sometimes gets my posts deleted. I never get any warnings for it though, since I'm not breaking any rules
>>451461
That's our salty mod for you, no fun allowed means no fun allowed! One of the reasons I respond to multiple posts at the same time is so I can smuggle slightly off topic content past our special friend. I also try and relate it back to Sonic, and mention 'comics' and 'cartoons.' It doesn't always work though

>>451461
You can appeal? This is a perfect time to go over everything the mod has been doing and posting links to examples of stuff getting unfairly removed. You can point out how the ban is excessive as well. You should definitely go all out but be professional about it.

wtf did the archie thread just get sent to the shadow realm?

>>451464
Yeah it did. That shit fucking sucks

>>451461
>>451463
Seconding this. If you could also mention these threads got deleted, that'd be great:
https://boards.4channel.org/co/thread/139784839
https://boards.4channel.org/co/thread/139784899
>>451464
Two threads did

>>451467
Just got a temporary block for both /co/ AND all boards. He is 100% defending IDWkun/Pixy - hell, the fact he immediately identified what the overall issue was before telling us "lul, you have another thread" speaks volumes.

We are never getting rid of this schizo janny. Not until ABIB fucks off and dies, or someone else on the staff removes him.

>>451468
Same. Probably because I posted
https://arch.b4k.co/vg/thread/414233664/#414242537
where he outs himself as a janny

>>451461
Both GR8 and all the board-slecific rules are just excuses that the staff can use to slap you with lengthy bans for any arbitrary reason that suits them. I'm most likely going to be eating two bans for calling them out in the Ride thread just now.

Funny thing is, since I spend most of my time in the weeks now at a campus with its own network their bans won't even fucking matter long-term - I won't be able to follow the storytimes or image dumps (since the place refuses to open images in most cases) but I can post just fine.

>>451469
The fact that 4chan has become a place where free speech is suppressed almost on the level of Spacebattles or SV is fucking depressing. This is what happens when powertripping tyrants are allowed to run wild with nobody to keep them in check.

At this point, even fucking Tumblr is less cancerous now.

>>451469
I lived, bitch!
>>451470
That's so odd. A least you can read the archived threads on the ride website
>>451471
It's a fucking dump and I've given up on posting there (aside from our threads of course, there's no way I'm letting them win)

>>451471
>>451472
There was a Tumblr post that really resonated with me - it was basically just stating that we should absolutely stop pussyfooting around or trying to 'sanitize' our dialogue when dealing with shitty people or shitty opinions. It was basically saying "we should absolutely bring back telling these people to fuck off or kill themselves for having terrible takes online instead of trying to be nice to even the scummiest of people" and was throwing shade at all the bullshit where you literally can't say any no-no words to anyone anymore without being permabanned from almost all platforms.

And it hit me that if this exact same post were made on 4chan today to call out our staff, the jannies, and all of the schizos they're implicitly defending with their inaction, it would be banned faster than you could blink. That's when it truly hit me that 4chan was irreversibly fucked when fucking Tumblr was advocating for more free speech than we ever have in two decades.

I will say that we would be better off just being here. But like I said before, the turnout just isn't there. Unless we get a whole lot of lurkers that I'm not aware of. I just pay attention to the posts we get.

>>451475
People are content with their normal and won't readily change - I should know, I'm like that a lot IRL and even though I'm aware of it, it's still difficult to break. I didn't even start out liking coming here, but I think repeat bans over bullshit forcing me to start posting here instead actually helped break me from the belief that I need to use 4chan as my primary means of interacting with these threads.

So unless something similar happens to most of the others, these threads will always remain very slow and empty compared to the 4chan ones.

So many deleted posts today. At least we can read them on the website, which is one of the reasons I made it in the first place. Can't moderate independent websites!
>>451473
It can't be saved without firm leadership that's involved with the community and that's never going to happen. I totally agree about gatekeeping. We need to just tell people they're not welcome if they're going to be distruptive
>>451475
I'd rather post here, but I'll stick around for any threads on 4chan. I've given up posting in non-ride threads though
>>451476
If he is IDWkun, then someone needs to contact the mods on IRC when he's asleep. He never deletes posts between 4am and 9am

>>451477
It's a shame. I have tabs for both 4chan and here open at all times. I have the Sonic threads pinned on 4chan and check to see if there are new posts here often. The best thing about this place is the freedom (within reason). So wonderful being able to post comics and not worry about someone deleting them for nearly no reason.
>>451478
I know what I want to do but I need to figure out when I can do it. New thread but do I wait until the old thread hits bump limit or even longer until it just about archives.

>>451477
I get banned relatively often (but not today, eat shit janny!) so I'm used to interacting here. I used to think 4chan was the best place to interact anonymously with people but it's becoming increasingly not worth it. I don't even recognize 4chan anymore, and you're here forever only works if the 4chan you knew still exists. Honestly, the lack of anything for the 20th anniversary really drove that point home for me.
>>451479
They're making up the rules as they go along so it's hard to advise. I say start the next storytime in the current thread, and then move onto a new thread once it gets near page 10. Ultimately, they can't go much further than they already are, so if we can adapt to this, we win. We just passed 190k posts in these threads, which is 190k losses for our special friend

This whole ordeal sucks but I guess we need to just deal with it and change accordly.

>>451480
When that thread hits page 10 I'm going to redo today's Archie comics. If it survives then I'll continue posting new Archie pages. I can manage doing a continuous Archie thread and keep going until it hits bump limit. But again my concern is when I make a new thread because the old one hits bump limit, do I just keep waiting until it hits page 10? Or do I keep posting in the old thread right up until it hits page 10 and then start a new thread?

>>451482
who knows, hope we can sort it out.

>>451483
The only clear cut solution is start an Archie thread, let it die, then not make another thread until it's time for the next one. If people want to talk about Sonic then they'll have to come here. I just don't think many people will. Also, hard to link to here for those that want to know because those get deleted.

So I SEEM to have somehow avoided eating a double fucking whammy of a ban courtesy of ABIB and IDWkun - as in, both temporary blocks were revoked before they could conclude so it apparently didn't go through. Meaning either another upper-ranking mod like ABIB intervened and told him and our schizo to stop being utter nonces, or ABIB realized how obvious it would make his involvement seem if a bunch of people simultaneously got banned after calling him and IDWkun out + him literally showing he's aware of our situation by directly acknowledging our multiple threads, so he pulled out from banning us.

Either way, I'm counting this as a win.

>>451476
The one silver lining is that ABIB gives up extremely easily to active resistance, so it's entirely possible that he might give up on defending him if enough people complain and take it up with the staff about his bullshit. Unlikely, but still.

>>451482
Yeah, this is a tricky one. It's easy enough to fill up an Archie thread and start a new thread a few hours later, but then we're back in the same position we were in today. My suggestion is we have one thread up all the time, and when one archives, we do a single issue in the new thread but do the full storytime at the usual time. I could potentially make a new thread if you're not around, but I'd restorytime the last issue you did so you can still do the proper storytime

>>451479
>>451480
I didnt want to say this in 4chan but cant we help slide the thread faster into page 10 ?
Have some anons bump the bottom threads until the sonic one is finally at the bottom ?

>>451478
>He never deletes posts between 4am and 9am
Which timezone ?

>Error: You are temporarily blocked from posting for violating /co/ 1 - Off-Topic, Comics/Cartoons Only.
This block will expire in 5 minutes.
Well, I guess it was bound to happen. I wonder what will happen next.

>>451484
If I want to talk about Sonic I'll jdut go on /v/ and start a new "AI Sonics" thread then post abominations for however long it takes me to get it out of my system or get new inspiration. That or make a powerlevel thread and watch the posts roll in.

>>451484
We could do that, but I'd rather we had a 24/7 presence there since that annoys him so much. I'd obviously prefer to talk here though
>>451486
Yeah, I got two temporary blocks, but no one banned me. I guess there was too much scrutiny
>>451488
I hope so too, but it's just a symptom of the larger organizational rot within 4chan. Ultimately site culture (and long-term viability!) is defined by the approach to moderation
>>451489
We could, but then we'd be playing into their games

>>451484
Its funny how they are literally forcing us to make a general thread.

I'm actually bothered by that anon that keeps siding with the mods like we're spamming.
>hey, maybe you shouldn't breathe so much, just hold your breath because the mod doesn't like you taking in oxygen

>>451495
>im-fucking-plying that's not our special friend rejoicing as we are forced to eat shit

>>451490
EST. I did the calculations here >>450897 based on 4chan time. Looks like it's actually 5am to 9am, but he's usually in bed by 1am
>>451491
Welcome to the club!
>>451494
It's all so they can force us to post in /sthg/ instead of having comfy threads
>>451495
That's probably the one thing that genuinely annoyed me today. I expect this attitude from our special friend, but not from fellow anons

>>451496
Yeah that's what I'm thinking. Nothing like getting victory lapped after the judges look the other way or high five the steroid user.

>>451495
Probably because he's the fucking janny/mod I'm sure of it.

>>451496
Actually that's a good point, he does sometimes sockpuppet as a less schizo persona

Two of the posts replying to this got deleted
https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/139777837/#q139786664
I am now 100% sure its the schizo janny
