Depends what bands you like really, I chose Avenged because they have alot of cool titles and also sound pretty sweet.

Nice sig

Does anyone happen to know why I'm on post moderation? It's not because of that pic, is it? It happened today between 16:00 and 18:30 CET...

Agreed! But it should be transparent

Here is the transparent version. It's pretty sloppily done, but it works considering how small it is.

I just thought of something. That Menlo guy on Youtube uploads episodes of MLP about 5-7 days after it actually airs, probably because he wants good quality (it still isn't that good), but that means when season 2 starts, those who don't have The Hub will not see the episode when it airs. I do have the Hub so I was wondering if you guys wanted me to post my reaction as I watched it, like a summary or notable moments, of course without spoiling it.

Anyway, we'll cross that bridge when we get there.

Hmmm yeh. Boomerang's currently showing the episodes from the first season over here, but I dunno how long after season two starts on the Hub it'll be before we see episodes over here.

I'm happy to wait the extra week or so, *twitch.*

And why was that thread locked? Like you said, we were only replying to comments about ponies, we didn't bring it up. And I don't think that guy should have said "Like religion and sexual orientation LOL!" I don't think that lol was called for. I just got in a big fight with my friend about religion and sexual orientation, and he was a close friend. Sigh. Anyway, my brother looked through my computer history while I was gone at that party I was talking about the other day, apparently. He found your fan fic, CoffeeGrunt, and figured I wrote it so he emailed it to his friends. I honestly don't know how to react right now.

Wow. I missed out on a lot. How'd that happen! I don't quite understand what went wrong in the zombie thread either, but it was WAY off topic.

CG, I was waiting for the moment to post the "Zombie Ponies" quote from Pinkie, you beat me to it

Eh, he must be jelly.

Also I dunno why people bring Pony discussion into other threads. It actually annoys me too, and judging by the locked thread, it annoys the mods as well.

We have our corner. I only posted that relevant Zombie Ponies vid after Xplosys said someone should zombify a pony. Then everyone started posting comments ranging from "I don't get it with these ponies" to "Coffee has an equine fetish."

I honestly hate to 'go there' but I think there's some prejudice. The users of this forum get mad at us for talking about ponies but we didn't bring it up, we are more the happy to keep our own niche and leave them be. But we have a right to pony related signatures and avatars, and when someone comments and starts a discussion on ponies should we not be allowed to chime in?

Only just noticed your post, sorry.

I just saw the moment and thought of Pinkie. Zombie ponies ftw. Also the thread fell off-topic as soon as the OP's photoshop..."skills" were thrown into doubt. It hit ponies when Xplosys posted, then I replied. Then suddenly everyone hatin' on the pony.

I agree. That's my point I've been leveeing from the start.

I don't see any difference between us and...Star Trek fans. People are allowed all the Star Trek avatars and signature banners they like. But then, it's inherent that other people who haven't watched the show won't understand why people like it.

I'm happy to keep it to this thread. If somebody outside the thread mentions ponies, or jokes towards my liking. I post a reaction pic or mention it then. I don't walk into threads, spam ponies, tell everyone to watch the show then leave. And neither does anybody else here.

Due to the Love and Tolerance Protocol, all arguments against ponies on other threads must be met with this exact response:

How far is too far?

I feel this is definitely far over the boundary at least:


Also buying pony toys...yeh, I'll give that a miss too.

And drawing that picture of the sniper pony was the result of a fairly weird conversation plus extreme boredom.

We can all agree that the following is NOT too far:

-watching the show
-talking about the show
-enjoying the show
-artwork of the show
-being somewhat effected by the cuteness

But like you pointed out, completely in love with the show and dressing up as a pony is way too far

Oh Grunt, you so silly!

Is this going too far? It's mascot costumes, therefore not as bad.

I saw that image while looking for the other one, but the res was too big for embedding on here imo.

There's one image of a guy dressed as a unicorn that's always used against bronies, but I couldn't find it. I think it pre-dates FiM.

Gotta admit, on rare occasions something like that at ComicCon is actually genius.
