'''ThunderPX''', sometimes known simply as Thunder, first joined the Sonic community on 18 April, 2002. Only having had access to the internet for two months, he had no idea to behave on forums and was your typical n00b. After the move to SSonicNET, he spelled his name with capitals and behaved more. He got wound up in the RP and sprite comic scenes and soon made a comic website together with [[FlashTHD]], [[I leoj gnik]] and [[HPZ Fanatic]] (later known as Benmc), called [[ComiChaos]]. This website was moderately popular although it didn't really serve it's purpose and people used the off-topic forums more. After the crash at Digibase, all files were lost, and most of the staff scrambled ([[FlashTHD]] went to work at [[Jonny's Place]] fulltime, [[I leoj gnik]] disappeared for 18 months). He then continued solo on a few sprite comics before stopping these and becoming a lurker for a while. Later on he attempted to create new projects such as [[SuperSonic Community Melee]], but these efforts were fruitless. He left [[Sonic Retro]] in 2006 shortly after its creation from [[Sonic Classic]] and [[Sonic Hot Dimensions|SHD]]. He is currently an admin for the popular [[Jonny's Place]] website, and also writes novels and composes music as well.

Revision as of 12:59, 8 November 2006

ThunderPX is a fairly average scener, who, as of November 2006, has not had any lasting impact on the community. He first joined Sonic Classic (then Sonic 2 BETA) on April 18, 2002, asking about the broken link to the beta ROM image. He continued to post afterwards, behaving like a typical idiot (as he had no idea to behave at the time.) In 2003, he participated in various roleplays and created a sprite comic (called "The Hog Files"), which led to the creation of a sprite comic website called ComiChaos with the help of several others. This website became fairly popular before it disbanded after a database crash at host site Digibase.

After that, Thunder continued his existing sprite comic series before cancelling it in favor of making something better. After another sprite comic attempt, this time based around the roleplay characters created by himself and I leoj gnik, he decided that sprite comics were not the best format for creativity. He continued roleplays in Sonic Classic's Recreation Room forum with others, although traffic was declining fast. He fought to keep it alive, in vain, as the Recreation Room was deleted in 2005.

Meanwhile, the website Jonny's Place, maintained by Jonny Axehandle was going for a revamp after a failed attempt to fuse with ComiChaos. After said incident, Thunder refused to have anything to do with the website until he was offered a staff position in the last phase of the revamp. He accepted, putting his grudge with Jonny aside.

In 2005, he created what may possibly have been his most popular project, SuperSonic Community Melee. As it was a game where sceners could have a part, everyone rushed to join in. However, to everyone's disappointment, the project was cancelled after Thunder decided that his programming skills would not do the project justice, and he could not find anyone else to continue the programming aspect of the game.

Currently, he is working on Jonny's Place, as well as incorporating his old roleplays into a series of novels known as the Anthrology. Apart from that, he is working on several video game concepts with Jonny Axehandle.
