You misinterpreted what I mean. There are trolls who think Sonic the Hedgehog appeals mostly to those with autism thus regard the majority of the fandom to it. I also notice they think bronies like that as well on Ponychan and other chat boards.

What I was getting at is that there are mostly those who think little of the Sonic fandom in general that Sonic would perhaps never be taken seriously as a video game celebrity outside his fandom. Some who see Mario with rose tinted glasses, or perhaps enjoy Call of Duty, League of Legends, Witcher, Grand Theft Auto or whatever burly leading game and just see us Sonic fans as childish or man-children who like to play games IGN gives bad reviews for. While this isn't the case they often pick on us for having Sonic OCs or point out Chris-Chan or SammyClassicSonicFan as examples when some of us grew up with Sonic and are mature fans. Okay!
