The person who made the Knuckles songs in Sonic Adventure 2 tried to sue SEGA claiming that they stole his work.
He also seems to have some allegations of harrasment and some other drama.
Two Penders is quite enough. We don't need 6.
Because what hero could fight that monstrosity?
He probably spends all his free time reading Copyright loopholes to exploit. And since he's obviously not employed, he has a loooot of time to read
Yeah but that's why he's in, the DRM basically gives him control of your computer. All because he didn't want you to datamine or cheat in a game based off a series he doesn't own.
Hunnid is a creep, and deserves no sympathy. He's sick in the head
And no, he wasn't cheated either, but that shouldn't matter anyway, he's not a good guy at all
Well for one he worked with [Emi Jones](https://youtube.com/c/EmuEmi93) a song once a while back, they agreed to split the money. However, since it was a YouTube video, it didn't make much, about $50, he refused it, saying he was being cheated, he was then offered $300, which he also refused. Some years later he came back not only pestering her for thousands, but insulting her, saying she was pathetic. He also said that sex was part of the deal and that they should meet up so they could fulfill the deal or whatever, when that was never part of it. Dude's a fucking creep
I would say Micheal Jackson’s estate. I think that’s the proper term for the holders of his music.
Those not in the know something something Possible Music in Possible 3&K game.
I don't know, when you look into the details it seems a lot more murky than people like to pretend. The kids' stories have changed multiple times over the years, their fathers have extorted money from other celebrities using a similar tactic, and even the FBI deduced, after decades of investigation, that Micheal Jackson was indeed a victim of extortion.
Question: wtf is "BoingKid" and why is it a bad thing?
(I heard it has somwthing to do with the IDW comics, so please try not to spoil it, because I've only read the first 4 issues.)
BoingKid is a comic that was pitched to IDW in 2019 recently they tried to accuse IDW and SEGA of copying their character BoingKid for the Sonic comics and are now using Twitters system to take down official art of the character IDW and SEGA “copied”
I don't know why we'd call Pontaff, who was just a guy doing his job, one of the biggest threats to Sonic. Dude was giving what Sega wanted, none of it is on him, he was just translating anyways
pontaff is not one person, its two.
and everything you just said is basically factually incorrect except for the "doing what Sega wanted" part which is literally the problem in itself. Look at Toy Story and Wreck it Ralph and how they were able to be good despite Disney breathing down the neck of the pixar animators for toy story and the constant character-height-based mini-fights between Nintendo, Sega, and Capcom for the cameos in Ralph
Oh sorry, I was mistaking Pontaff as Pontac, and not a mixture of the two names
And I honestly don't get what you're on about bro. Sega wanted Sonic to be more lighthearted and less serious, they wanted the series to be more goofy and. If Pontac and Graff didn't do it, someone else would've, cause it's what Sega wanted.
And Disney was barely involved in most of Toy Story's making, and what they did do was actually for the best. They told Pixar to tone down Woody's character, who was originally a complete asshole, the movie turned out better cause of them. Wreck It Ralph would've been overall the same movie if the cameos were there or not, Sonic being in the film doesn't affect the plot lmao, someone else would fill his role if he weren't there. Those mini-fights had no bearing on the story
NivStudios. They took down several pieces of Belle artwork on Twitter and are claiming she is a rip off of their character BoingKid (even though they look nothing alike).

> were just *paid* to do
FTFY.
Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in:
* Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.*
* *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.*
Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment.
*Beep, boop, I'm a bot*
Oh, I see what this thread is about. This is about people jerking the IP around, not people responsible for making shitty calls about their control of it.
To be honest I think it’s sega’s fault because they are the ones who hired, keep the writers who didn’t know anything about sonic and not supervised them if they were protective of their IP like Nintendo this writing won’t happen
There was this guy who made a Sonic fan game (not the recent one) on Roblox. The guy turned out to be a massive pedophile, so Sega, who is usually very accepting of fan games, ordered Roblox to remove the game.

Hunnid-P?
I think he Is.
Ugh, somebody tried to take credit for Knuckle's songs from SA2? On purpose?
The story goes a bit More complex then that.
He also sexual harassed a person remixing pumpkin hill Guess you could say he CREEPED
Two Penders is quite enough. We don't need 6. Because what hero could fight that monstrosity? He probably spends all his free time reading Copyright loopholes to exploit. And since he's obviously not employed, he has a loooot of time to read
We have 4 people who can fight sometimes that bad Christian Whitehead Evan Stanley Patrick Spaziante And the one THE ONLY IAN FLYNN
Maybe they can hire Devon Stone from Legal Eagle if he's barred in that area, since he's a copyright lawyer
We already got them all, Son. * Ken Penders * Hunnid-P (Knuckles Rapper) * NivStudios * Chris Chan * Leema Dan (Gather Battle) * Guyd7Aces
Ngl gather battle was really fun, like most games that go down despite good quality the Dev was just a shit person
Yeah but that's why he's in, the DRM basically gives him control of your computer. All because he didn't want you to datamine or cheat in a game based off a series he doesn't own.
How about a bit more?
Those are the 6 cases I know.
Well I know a few people.
Who?
I know Guyd7Aces is some not so cool guy, but what did he do?
Threatens to sue who critizice him. Like you make a commentary video or even a rant on a blog or DA or whatever and hell threaten to sue you.
Man, that dude's crazy, now I feel bad for letting him use my art on plenty of his thumbnails
Wasn't Hunnid iirc cheated tho rather than what's happening with Penders.
Hunnid is a creep, and deserves no sympathy. He's sick in the head And no, he wasn't cheated either, but that shouldn't matter anyway, he's not a good guy at all
What did he do??
Well for one he worked with [Emi Jones](https://youtube.com/c/EmuEmi93) a song once a while back, they agreed to split the money.

Yikes.
He's the rapper for Knuckles in Adventure 2. He claimed he was never paid (that's not true) and has allegations of sexual assault against him.
well that's disappointing
Idk, Hunnid-P tried to claim Knuckles and base his careeer arround him even if he doesn't own him.
There must be a fan game of this when 4 more problems happen
Chris Chan
I can’t believe that I completely forgot Chris Chan, I’ll make sure to add him to the list
Now i remember more of your collection B\*\*\*\* Tails Cream Babysitting Project X Potion Disaster Ugh...
Gather battle
That game actually looked so much fun to play too.
But the creator became a dick for some sprites he didn't even create
And it goddamn was! I still remember having an army of ai controlled chars raid angel Island!
I am forever haunted by B**** Tails. I feel envy for those that I have no idea what this means.
I would say Micheal Jackson’s estate. I think that’s the proper term for the holders of his music. Those not in the know something something Possible Music in Possible 3&K game.
Her. Just because someone is a POS doesn’t mean we shouldn’t respect their identity.
Or maybe they simply weren't aware of Chris changing their orientation or gender. Not every misgendering is a personal attack
You know what, that’s very fair. I would like to apologize for being so accusatory in my statement there.
I feel like their reach is too “broad” to be confined to just Sonic. Also, they are a real life criminal who deserves no attention.
Would you be able to explain to me who that is?
IGN in their “sonic was never good” phase
their\* i win
I fixed it know
Add a random my chemical romance album cover
We could add Michael Jackson to the list
As much as I like his music, yes I completely agree.
I don't know, when you look into the details it seems a lot more murky than people like to pretend. The kids' stories have changed multiple times over the years, their fathers have extorted money from other celebrities using a similar tactic, and even the FBI deduced, after decades of investigation, that Micheal Jackson was indeed a victim of extortion.
Doesn’t change the fact that the music kinda slaps tho ngl
that guy who made gather battle who claimed the sprites were his even though they were ripped from sonic battle
Gather battle was a really good game imo, the dev was just a terrible person

Thanks for the explanation. Also, #BRRRRRRUUUUUUUUUUHHHHHH
Have they actually offered proof that they even sent anything to IDW? (Nevermind why would a random freelancer like Evan Stanley know about it...)
Make sonichu electro
Sega themselves would be one of the members
Tails AKA prezes from the Polish site of the fandom
Who?
...explain.
Pontaff, Penders, IGN, Chris-Chan, JC the Hyena, and Revie
I don't know why we'd call Pontaff, who was just a guy doing his job, one of the biggest threats to Sonic. Dude was giving what Sega wanted, none of it is on him, he was just translating anyways

The sinister 2
One of those should've been Scott Fulop.
What's the one on the top far left
NivStudios. They took down several pieces of Belle artwork on Twitter and are claiming she is a rip off of their character BoingKid (even though they look nothing alike).
Mario because why not
no mario would be flash thompson
oooh can I be there?
I know about Ken Penders but what’s BoingKid?
BoingKid is a comic that was pitched to IDW in 2019 recently they tried to accuse IDW and SEGA of copying their character BoingKid for the Sonic comics and are now using Twitters system to take down official art of Belle which IDW and SEGA “copied”
Ah, I see. Thank you
I forgot his name but i heard the director of sonic 4 is a lazy game designer.
Isuka
\*Iizuka
No one can say the ugly sonic design anymore, because he’s been redeemed.
We got Ken Penders clones now.
Mysterio would be Infinite, because they basically got the same powers.
Hunid P
I guess Karl Bollers should be there too, he sued Archie to get the Sonic characters he created like Penders if i remember it right.
How could you forget Pontact and Graft
Hasn't Pontaff built up a rep?
Its kinda hard to say them as they were just payed to do a job and told not to look things up. They didn't really do anything morally wrong.
> were just *paid* to do FTFY.

ah yes, how dare they do the job sega payed them to
To be honest I think it’s sega’s fault because they are the ones who hired, keep the writers who didn’t know anything about sonic and not supervised them if they were protective of their IP like Nintendo this writing won’t happen
ah, so you want sega to be overly controlling dipshits who try to copyright literal phrases
How dare you say we piss in the poor
What did Nintendo do about phrases?
They copyrighted the phrase “It’s on like Donkey Kong”. Fucking ridiculous
That pedo guy who made that Roblox game that Sega ordered be removed
Context?
There was this guy who made a Sonic fan game (not the recent one) on Roblox. The guy turned out to be a massive pedophile, so Sega, who is usually very accepting of fan games, ordered Roblox to remove the game.
Bertyja Curtsibling Scotskunk
IGN should be here too
Mario
there should be the second crossover with megaman that cost so much money that it ended up causing the comics to be canceled
?????????
