As in the case of [[YouTube]] and [[Wikipedia]], Chris really doesn't understand the point of the website; deviantART doesn't call itself an "art community" for no reason. Chris used deviantART only to post his works and fan art (without attribution, of course); deviantART ''would'' have made it relatively painless to truly interact with his "[[fans]]." Chris, however, thinks that "interaction" means ''he'' posts his original and true creations and ''others'' stay put. In other words, he thinks deviantART is a place to dump images, and the whole "community" aspect is just too grandiose to comprehend.
== True and Honest Fans ==
 
One of the big strengths of deviantART is that people can comment on the pictures, and allowing comments to be posted is one of the unwritten common-sense rules of the site. Having comments disabled or seeing a bunch of "Hidden by owner" entries is often a sign of an artist with community relations issues (read: "soon to be featured in [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]]"). Chris systematically disabled comments in all of his submissions, possibly because he knows that nothing good could come out of it, but also possibly because this is his idea of keeping in touch with his fans.

~Cwcipedia DA journal, on why the comments are disabled in all of Chris's pictures

deviantART is a large online art community where artists can host their artwork, and receive comments and critique from fellow artists and art appreciators. Being one of the most popular amateur art websites in the world, deviantART attracts the best and the worst of us. Especially the worst. In the trolling world, deviantART is notorious as a den for Sonic recolors, so it's no surprise that Chris became a member.

Chris's use of deviantART

As in the case of YouTube and Wikipedia, Chris really doesn't understand the point of the website, and all of the finer community aspects of the website flew right over his head. He regarded deviantART as a place to dump his images into, disabled comments, and completely disregarded all comments he received through his userpage. His stated goal was to "get in touch with choice Fan Artists", but with his usual attitude of "I post images, others listen", we have no idea how this would have worked. In other words, Chris operated just like many other Sonic recolorists who ended up in Encyclopedia Dramatica, only that he didn't even allow praising comments to be posted.

True and Honest Fans

In CWCipedia's Communities page, Chris listed SonichuFanclub as an officially sanctioned Sonichu dA community. All signs point out that the community is most certainly run by the True and Loyal Fanbase *winkwinknudgenudgesaynomore*.
