Talk:Silver the Hedgehog/Archive 1

message: It appears that Silver was under the sub-heading. Neutral/Anti-heroes of the Sonic the Hedgehog series characters. How does anyone know he's neutral or anti? By what I've heard, that he's trying to stop Sonic from doing something that could potentially kill someone, he appears to be good. Or at least unknown. UnDeRsCoRe 16:02, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

message: Who put that up there? Although they do share a resemblance, Silver would have to be Black and Red because that's Black Doom's bloodline trait.
Actually, forget the bloodline trait. I just remembered something from Biology that could dispel that. - Mystic — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.191.20.77 (talk • contribs)

message: Think abute it if he was Shadow he woud be has fast has Sonic — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.54.98.159 (talk • contribs) 
yeh but some people say Shadow can only run as fast as Sonic because of his shoes, and as Silver is wearing different shoes........ it could be him — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.77.110.239 (talk • contribs) 
That depends on who says it, in Sonic X theres a few times when Sonic and Shadow are racing and Shadow is running and keeping up just fine — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.54.97.195 (talk • contribs) 
That would be true if Silver was debuting in Sonic X, but he's in the Sonic games, not Sonic X, so Shadow being as fast as Sonic without his jet shoes is still unknown. It's best to say that Shadow still has super speed without the shoes, but wouldn't be as fast as Sonic. - Mystic — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.191.20.77 (talk • contribs) 
But in Sonic Rivals Silver is as fast as Sonic and Shadow. MindWraith 04:00, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: It's true. People do think that. This has only arisen because of the christian morals of how magic, black arts, etc are "morally wrong" or to be blatant: evil. Again, I doubt Harry Potter is an evil Satan Worshiper (not that Satanists are "evil". I've met some nice ones before) who wants to make everyone non-christian. Should I mention he celebrates Christmas in every book and the fact that he's fictional?! UnDeRsCoRe 02:44, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, it's true, Christianity hates the occult, because the occult does not come from God.  And, everything that is not from God is the property of Satan.  There isn't really any middle ground.  --Luigifan 19:25, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

text: XD  Oh, UnDeRsCoRe, you're cracking me up!!!!  Anyway, I've heard that "Iblis" is the Muslim name for Satan.  Of course, that's an overstatement when applied to this Iblis.  --Luigifan 03:02, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

text: Well, if you ask me, Sega trying to aim at a more "mature" level, by incorparating religion into them. Or they could just be trying to implement religion into young children's eyes. Or it could just all be coincidental and have no meaning behind it. UnDeRsCoRe 02:15, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  The meaning of Iblis 

message: I think what they mean by "young" or "immature" is that Silver probably has a somewhat innocent view of the world of good and evil; he`s probably a little naive and simplified when it comes to judging between good and evil. He might be the honorable type that, while being near-humorlessly serious like Shadow, will probably be honest, noble and concerned about the greater good like Sonic. A middle point between their personalities, if you will. Just a thought.--Crossfire 7 09:22, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Silver`s personality 

message: I can't find the interview on IGN, but I'm 99 percent sure that it WASN'T Yuji Naka who stated Silver was white, because he left Sonic Team way before anything about Silver was even REVEALED. Could someone put up a link to the interview? 007kz 04:36, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

message: I gotta know, where are you people getting this stuff? Barely any information on Silver has been released, and some of the stuff here is just... premature!

replies: text: Blaze said, "You're so naive, Silver... But, I've always liked that about you.", before she faded away...  And, as for Sonic, Amy, and Elise, I think Sonic liked the fact that Elise wasn't perpetually chasing after him (sort of like the way that he liked Blaze in Sonic Rush... well, it's probably a good thing that Silver doesn't know about that.)  --Luigifan 20:41, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

So far, we can cite that he will be in the final battle, as well as playable in the levels.  I know what he looks like, due to information from the game tester, but we can't exactly cite that.

replies: text: According to this article, and the talk pages an links therein, there needs to be unity within the article as well as to use what better fits with the article.

replies: text: Well, I live in Canada and I'll tell you, both "Color" and "Colour" are genearally both excepted as proper and correct. But, I personnally don't use "colour" because I think it's derived from the more or less, Canadian French language. In accordance with what you said, this article is viewed world-wide meaning we should probably use the version of the word that is used the most in all english speaking countries.

thread_title:  Needs to be cleaned up. 

message: The page has recently been hit by a vandal, who appears to be a Silver and Shadow fangirl.  So far, this vandal has made two attempts to incorporate his/her "Flames the Hedgehog" character into the article's Personality section as a love interest for Silver, only to get reverted each time (the first time by yours truly.)  I do not want to relive anything like that "Angel the Cat" episode (which was a Tails fangirl trying to impose her fictional relationship on Wikipedia,) so let's try to nip this in the bud quickly.  (For the record, I've created a fan character who is in love with Tails, but I know better than to go harping on and on about her on a site like Wikipedia.)  --Luigifan 00:03, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Flames?!?

message: Yes, it's another of my "alternate theme song" topics.  The song "How To Save a Life" by The Fray seems to have a very similar theme to "Dreams of an Absolution", the actual theme song for Silver in Sonic the Hedgehog 2006.  Seriously, just look at their respective refrains:
"How to Save a Life" refrain 
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend 
Somewhere along in the bitterness 
And I would have stayed up with you tonight 
Had I known how to save a life 
"Dreams of an Absolution" refrain 
And every night I will save your life 
And every night I will be with you 
And every night I still lie awake 
And I dream of an absolution 
Basically two different ways of saying the same thing, if you ask me.  :p  The lyrics of the verses converge a little bit, with "How to Save a Life" referring more to a spiritual death while "Dreams of an Absolution" refers to physical death, but both are all about the grief of losing a close friend.  So, yeah, both songs are very similar, and they both work well as a theme song for Silver.  If you've heard both songs, be sure to chime in and let me know if you agree or not!  --Luigifan 19:30, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
