Technical Background

Spexfox has interesting technical abilities in that he can visualize programming and hacking but never has the fucking patience to follow through learning the hacking skills he covets so dearly. His last "project" was a custom Sonic the Hedgehog 2 enemy named Slotter Rabbit that was a good idea but never came to fruition due to his own laziness. Here are some of his ideas he came up with that he'll probably never do:

• Slotter Rabbit (Now "Slotter Ribbit")
• Michael Jackson's Sonic 3
• Music-Based Combat Engine
• PHP Web App that Converts Images to Music based on color and shape

Sonic Retro Podcast

Spexfox was one of the hosts on the Sonic Retro Podcast featured Bi-Weekly on Sonic Retro's main page. His role in the podcast was being the only furry host, writing for the main page blog, and managing the podcast with the community (in other words, PR). He also did most of the editing of each podcast recording.

Membership

At first it was assumed that Spexfox was a fairly new member to the Sonic Retro community. However, after a short while, it was realized that he was previously known as the member "∞∞?" on Simon Wai's Sonic 2 Beta Page and Sonic Cult. A few days later, it was also realized that he was the member "Gyro the Fox" at an ever earlier date on Simon Wai's Sonic 2 Beta Page. After Tweaker merged both of these old accounts, Spexfox's join date was pushed all the way back to January 2nd, 2004. Previous to these user names, Spexfox also went by the names "MilesTailsPrower" on Sonic Fan Games HQ as well as "Metalo the Hedgehog" and "Gyro the Fox" (again).

For a while, Spexfox was part of the site staff, but quit of his own accord. Unfortunately, Scarred Sun and Tweaker had forgotten to remove his administrative rights. When Spexfox remembered this he posted the following on the Sonic Retro blog:
