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 and poorly drawn furry porn, so it's no surprise that Chris became a member.
Chris's deviantART accounts
- Sonichu — Established 28 December 2005 and banned in early September 2008, presumably for yiff porn.
- SonichuSite — Established 19 September 2008. Permabanned for a kinda nebulously defined failure, likely the blatant pornography from Sonichu #7. In his next account's Journal, Chris said he has no idea why he was banned. Reading comprehension is apparently not part of the most prestigious reaches of American education.
- Cwcipedia — Used while the CWCipedia was down. The account was opened 9 August 2009 and closed on the 28th for evasion of the previous ban and posting erotic artwork featuring underage characters (which is to say, Rosechu's washing machine pic from Episode #20 — it was actually deleted before the account was banned completely).
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 on 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.
