Hello!

Post by pastellrain »

I'm new here, and wow, I'm really glad I'm not the only one who hasn't forgotten about Chao!

I recently got back into this Chao raising after a long break from Sonic Games.

After all this time, I still can't believe there are no new Chao games. I've almost been sure that within the 5 years I've been gone, they had to have made a new Chao game, right? Wrong... they didn't. :herocry:

I keep wondering why though... Chao were a huge hit. They were the absolute most interesting and complex virtual pets I have ever gotten the pleasure to raise. Really, they are amazing.

My dream game would probably be a reboot of SA2B for the Nintendo 3DS. Either that, or a new game with new material, and an upgraded Chao game.

So, does anyone want to talk? :herocool:

I have a bunch of favorite Chao...

I have Candy, my shiny pink Hero Chao. I also like Makoto who is just a plain white Chao, but she's been with me since 2009. I plan on making her a Chaos Chao in her next life. I also have a Hatsune Miku Chao. (Seriously, Hero Swim/Swim. It looks like her doesn't it?)

And RIP Buddy, the Chao who died from corrupt data.

Hi!! I'm new here, and I figured it would be good to introduce myself, as is common courtesy on forums(I think. Most forums have intro posts). I might not be around very much, as my obsessions, tend to sway from one to the other, but I'm happy to be here! I hope things work out well!

Hello everyone! I've spent so many hours on this website over the past eight years, reading and memorizing data about chao and being fascinated by the sheer number of different types, but it is only today I've made an account on the forums. I suppose it's just never occurred to me that I could actually, you know, talk to people on here.

Anyways, contrary to my anticipation, these forums seem surprisingly not-dead, so I plan to stick around for awhile. :darkcool:

Welcome to Chao Island!
I too was once a long time lurker on the main site, and it took me a substantial amount of time to 1, realize there were forums, and 2, realize I could actually sign up and talk with users.
Glad you think this place is active enough, even though many users nowa'days call it pretty dead (sadly enough.)

That's too bad. Perhaps it's to do with the decline in the popularity of chao and of Sonic in general, but hopefully those of us who remained interested will keep things like this going.

Hello, friends! I know this post hasn't been replied to for quite some time, but I still figure I'd introduce myself.

My name's Rachel - most folks just tend to call me Rach. I'm 20 years old and I've been a fan of Chao for just about as long as I can remember. I saw Steam had the Sonic Adventure games and, for nostalgia's sake, I just had to get them and raise some more Chao! I'm getting back into raising the little creatures, and this time, I'll be breeding an all-S Chao, and making a Chaos Chao. Never managed it before, but I'm older and wiser now. Probably.

I'm also a recreational pilot, and am currently studying for my commercial licence, so that's exciting too. I have a passion for flying; there's honestly nothing quite like it!

That is just about all I can come up with about myself. :thinking:

Welcome! This site is pretty good for Chao info, though the people in the Non-Chao Island section probably mostly haven't touched Chao in forever. I know I haven't in several years! Still, you'll find everything you need and the Chao section still has regulars that are around to help.

I'm Flame, though I go by Nietona in most places because it's been forever since I've used "Flame". I study sociology, so I don't know anything about flying, really.

Still, an aviator? That's pretty interesting! I've never imagined what it would be like to be a pilot. Is there any reason you went for this particular career choice to begin with?

It's lovely to meet you, Flame/Nietona! Heh, that's alright - it's still good to at least be a part of a Chao forum, even when there are few people who still take care of Chao. Six-year-old me would be very happy right now. :chaohappy:

Oh yes! It's absolutely amazing. It's honestly the best feeling in the world, when you level off at your altitude and you can look down at the world below, along with your maps and charts to plot where you are. It really puts life on the ground in perspective - everything looks so much smaller. You leave all of your stresses and worries on the ground when you start flying your aircraft~

I originally wanted to be a pilot when I was about four, and I got on my first plane. Something along the lines of "I'm going to fly this one day!!"
Still not up to multi-engine planes yet, but I'll be there (hopefully) soon! Then, I'll be able to tackle the big jets.

I think sociology must be pretty interesting! Do you enjoy the subject?

I'm The Thunder, a 2D Game Artist. With an ambition to design my own video game one day, you can imagine that I play video games.

Strangely enough, the fan game Sonic World with all those characters and such is what motivated me to return to Chao raising after years since acquiring three Chaos Chao. I now have 24, using two GameCube memory cards, and intend to turn 22 of them into permanent Chaos Chao. Feel free to ask me about my Chao collection shared with my brother. Maybe some day, I'll film myself Chao raising and put it online so you could see how I roll with it.

Peace out, guys! I'll see you around the forum.

What's up, fellow Chao and/or Sonic fans! I love video games, my family, and collecting Littlest Pet Shops (I know it's embarrassing). My favorite game franchises are Sonic, NiGHTS, Metroid, Ratchet and Clank, Animal Crossing, Kirby, and Smash Bros.. I like making Chao that look like other SEGA characters, I'm in the progress of making a Chao that looks like Jackle from NiGHTS into Dreams ( a orange two-tone neutral flying power with evil eyes and an evil mouth).

Chao Island, I've known this site forever and lurked on occasion. Life's made it too hard for me to indulge in my hobbies, played a lot of video games back in the day and was more involved with communities. You won't see me here often, I registered to find out about prototype Chao stuff. If you got any hand it over and nobody gets hurt!
