um okay thanks for the hostility. i started this thread to discuss the archives, as we had been doing until a few posts back. i was pointing out what i believed were flaws in the archives line big enough for me to take a stance against them, and then healthy discussion ensues with posters agreeing and disagreeing with me. you however just posted why you thought it was a dumb thread. Good job. I simply fail to see how voicing my opinion on a subject clearly on-topic with the theme of this board can be "pointless". If I started a thread about how my shoes don't fit quite right, then sure, by all means that may be validly accused as "the most pointless thread ever". But this is not that thread. Look around this board, look at every single thread. They all have other peoples' opinions. All threads fall under 1 of 2 categories: Facts or Opinions. Either "Soniuc X #40 is the last issue" or something, which is news, a fact, or "Reviews of Sonic X #40" which is a review, an opinion piece. Even the fact-categorized threads contain opinions though, when people comment on the initial, leading post. "Sonic X is cancxelled now, finally!" or "Sonic X is cancelled? oh darn". those are the type of responses to nearly every thread. Opinions. You emphasized your lack of compassion form others' opinions. That is odd, since you are a member of a forum, the whole point of such is to discuss and share opinions. Though odd, it is fine. I can understand you being a bit stubborn, saying "my opinions are mine and i value them", oh sure that's fine. But then there is simply no need for you to post saying that since YOU don't care about someone's opinions, the entire thread should be locked. It simply makes no sense. If you don't care what i think, that's perfectly fine. Just don't post at all on this particular thread then. and to shigamodo, i just used codswallop cuz it sounds funny

" myself Like them..& I don't care what others think of that"
see you could have just posted "I respectfully disagree, Comix750" and that would have been an adequate response/post. Instead you verbally flail around spouting why you don't care about my opinon, ANYONE's opinion for that matter. If you don't care about what others think, why post on a forum? forums are meant for people with similar tastes in pop culture and whatnot to discuss matters of said pop culture. I posted why i think the Archives are a bad idea hoping to spark discussion on said topic. What may i ask is wrong with that? should i have just posted "Let's talk about the Archives, but everyone must maintain an indifferent opinion of Archives because Legionfan44 doesn't care "what others think of that""? What the heck have you been posting about thus far if you don't care for others' opinions? how can you spark discussion and gain knowledge? Also, please do not clog up this thread with your no-doubt messily constructed replies. It is off topic, as were my last 2 posts but I felt i must respond to these allegations of my "pointless thread". Legionfan44, Shoot me off a PM instead or something if you want to further discuss this matter. I want to continue this discussion about the faults of the Archives line or why people DO like it. If, Legionfan44, you want to post elaborating why you DO like them, you are more than welcome to do so, I just don't want this thread to veer off topic. |

Legionfan44: Do you know how excessively DUMB it is to reply to a topic just to say you don't like said topic?
It doesn't even matter. You're not God, you can't tell people what they should and shouldn't post. If you can't handle the fact that people will talk about things that don't interest you, then just stay in your room playing video games all day. Then you'll never have to talk to anyone about anything ever again. I bet you'll be happier that way. |

now back on topic...
I just recently bought a few of the archives to see for myself. I must say that I like them. The include every story and even pinups and bumper stickers!!! Someone said they changed text to update to present stories(like changing Boomer to Rotor), but I havent noticed anything different yet(Boomer is still Boomer). Some would also complain about the size, so far I have had no trouble reading them and the size is convenient. I have no opinion on the recoloring; It doesnt matter to me. Also as a bonus, later archives include profiles, maps, and one has "How I make the covers" by Spaz. Overall these are great. 1. If you have no interest in the original comics and just want a cheap way to read old stories I would highly recommend these. 2. If you have the original comics, but want something to carry around that you dont care if it gets damaged, I recommend these. 3. If you are interested in collecting the comics, then go with that then see point 2. |

I think it was only in the "Sonic Firsts" and "Sonic: The Beginning" TPBs that they changed Boomer to Rotor (and fixed Sally's
colouring up, etc.)

i must say it's the size and recoloring that bugs me most. I flipped through one at Borders today and it was just not the same as the floppies.

Gift horse, mouth. Just be glad they're being reprinted at all. It's very time-consuming and expensive to track down comics from fifteen years ago.

an easier comparison would be early-90s (at least 15 years old) Valiant comics. You can easily find these for 25 cents each, whereas they originally sold for
about $2-3

He's just mad because the last time he ordered an adult meal a certain fan stuck a Sally figure it in.

I didn't mean "adult" in the pornographic sense, albeit that'd be friggin' awesome and I actually probably WOULD buy three.

Hence the "cheaper than Happy Meal" thing, the point is the price of JSR is cheaper than established price of Happy Meal, not that established price of Happy Meal is more than whatever you percieve the value of JSR to be. |
