BRO I WILL CRY BC YOUR PFP MADE MY DAY LOOK AT THE LITTLE SILVER I NEED TO PROTECT HIIIMMM OMGGGGGGGGG
PFFFFT THANK YOU!
I've actually been meaning to share this with my Tumblr for the unaware!
This little Silver actually has some lore!
His name is "Silbor" and his creation was through drawme, a site let that's you share anonymous drawings!
Originally used to just mess with FerretFresh on Twitter
However when scrolling through my TL I kept coming across more and more people asking for anonymous drawings, and at some point decided I wanted to hit every single one, using the phrase
" Get Silbored "
(there's a ton more of these btw lmao)
I thought this was just a meaningless prank. I assumed it would give a quick laugh and then be forgotten about
But oh I was SO unprepared
That next morning I woke up to find that a public case was opened in a group effort to figure out who the "anonymous Silborer" was, with the first guess being me!
This made sense, I had left many hints, liking A LOT of the Silbor tweets, doodles in recent artwork, I knew I couldn't keep this up any longer.
So a couple hours later I made a public announcement confessing to being the one behind Silbor! People laughed, I had some fun discussions, and that's where the story should end.
here's where the amazing stuff happens.
First off, I didn't Silbor only my fellow mutuals, I did it to anyone I could find and more importantly, I Silbored some far larger creators that I freaking ADORED
so you can only begin to imagine my shock when I check and find that artists I have admired for a couple years at this point had actually begun to follow me
and it's really weird to say it now as I kinda considered myself friends with alot of them now.
Eventually, I see my follower count rise, and begin to tweet about it ofc, and to my surprise I got ALOT of support.
Soon I tweeted out that if I hit 1k, I'll change my pfp to Silbor...
And that is how a goofy throwaway meme had me thrown into the sonic community spotlight for a hot minute, made me connections with huge creators, and took me from 600 followers to 1k+ overnight.
And as promised I changed all my pfps to Silbor!
This goofy idea has actually grown into a full on AU, lovingly named the "Sobic AU"
and so far, the cast is made up of
Sobic, Shabow, Silbor, Bouges, Aby, Baze, Tikol, Knockles, Baos!
And yes, MANY shit-post have been created through this
(sorry for such a long answer, I just wanted an excuse to talk but this thing lmao)
