That was a pretty easy survery, Macman, besides the fact of trying to remember what the site was about haha.

haha thanks for filling it out,

you don't think the site seems like a good way to reach outside audiences? (or did you get 1 - 5 backwards xD)

Ack! I probably did. Apologies for that but yeah I do think it is a good way to reach outside audiences. It was actually a really neat site to navigate around. The FB stuff had me more confused then the actually site which I found funny.

Tried to take it but the website it links to takes me off the internet, so it's kind of not worth the bother. I dunno why some websites do that. Sorry :gova:

Seriously guys, why all the pony hate? We're supposed to good naturedly troll them.


I dunno, raging at like every pony pic that comes up seems a bit, childish, there's no reason for this amount of rage.

It's a meh show, with the appeal mainly coming from the fact that it's humor style is directly lifted from the cartoons of the late 90s which a lot of us grew up. It's issue is from what i saw, that it doesn't have a high enough concentration of quality jokes, though it did have some pretty good pay-offs. I can understand the appeal given the fact that it's humor style is all but gone, but I'd prefer to just rewatch dexter's lab or something honestly.


Also: Irony, me and xonar just talked about how terrible japan's legal and political systems are a day or so ago.






Friendship defeated.

Has anyone ever met a brony that had a single defining personality trait other than "lol im a brony deal wit it"

serious question
Yes.

Several.

Like seriously so many lol.

But as a person who doesn't like bronies, I should have every right to hate something; I hate carrots. but does that mean people who like carrots are going to lock me up, throw me in their basement and spoonfeed me carrots?

I would hope not.
You're hating a group of people and you're expecting them not to show their interest when there are literally TONS of ways they can show it on the internet (the **** ton of reaction images they have)

I think you're going to lose here :|.

My biggest (and I guess really only) gripe with bronies is the extent to which they change how they act because of the show. That's kind of vague so I'm gunna ramble on for a bit on what I mean.

I've got no problem with liking a show. I've got no problem with absolutely loving a show. I don't even have a problem with you wanting other people to know you love that show. But it should be a passive thing, something that comes up organically. Take my avatar right now. I love the **** out of digimon tamers. Everything about it. Loved it in 4th grade and I love it now. And given the chance, I'd go on and on and on about how ****in great the show is.

But I don't.

Because other people don't care. Not only do they not care, but my forcing the topic onto it is going to make them actually dislike the show. And that's not cool, since as I've established, its ****in great and there is no reason to dislike it in the world. But with bronies, it takes over EVERYTHING. It changes how you present yourself, how you speak, how you react, how you act in general. Take the phrase 'everypony'. There is literally no reason to use this outside of drawing attention to the fact that you like MLP. And odds are, your avatar is already doing that.

So this bronie finds himself in an environment that is clearly not one that wants to be talking about ponies, but he's so utterly saturated in its culture that he can't not bring it up. Or chooses not to, whatever. It doesn't really matter since it doesn't change the fact that its all over the place and really has no reason to be.


4am is not the ideal time for these kinds of posts.

tl;dr: I have no problem with liking MLP but you should be able to use enough restraint to not force it on other people who are tired of seeing it. Its just gunna make them mad.

Are all bronies really like that, though? Maybe it's just because of the fact that I only really frequently go through Dgames and a few Disco Room threads, but most of the ones I've talked to outside of a MLP thread aren't really like that most of the time. (Saying "everypony", "mane" instead of main, "brohoof", etc.) That is, unless MLP is brought up, in which case, it'd be like me bringing up Digimon Tamers to you.

I need to watch Digimon Tamers through fully. I really really need to lol. I loved the first few episodes I got to watch before marching band last year... ;-;.

That was just my example, but generally if someone has a MLP avatar you can expect to see MLP images or references in next to every post.

I see what you did there

God but I remember when 99% of DGames misused WIFOM though. I think of it as the Dark Ages.

Be warned, the glory hole in the end stall leads to Rockin's bedroom/feeding chamber

Also in all seriousness I want to congratulate tonberry on the best first post I have ever seen

In other news: Godfather PM now created for my set up

*that hype*
Am I the only person who just knocks out role PMs in a day? The only time I haven't was the role PMs for my FF4 setup (Strarted them in march, finished yesterday. Designed, balanced, and ironed out 6 games along the way)

It's mainly because mine has a decent bit of flavour to it.
I don't imagine the rest will take very long and that one only took like 20 minutes, so depending on time I'll probably have them done sunday.

No you're not. I usually have fairly flavorful PMs and spend a lot of time to make them pretty, but I usually have all of them done soon enough.

People just lack diligence.

Joey, the ones that aren't obsessively bad posters don't want to be identified with Bad Wolf and his ilk. As such, they don't let you know. Every one I've ever seen that has used the word "bronie" has been annoying as ****.

every season of digimon after the first 2 are automatically terrible
Mac, I don't know if I've ever seen anyone so wrong about anything before in my life.

Alternate post: Mac, I like you, and Imma let you finish, but the third season was the greatest Digimon season of ALL TIME.

I remember being refreshed by Digimon's darkness of tone/events and ambitious storytelling but that was when I was a stupid kid that didn't know better and I also lost interest around season three. Won't bother tarnishing those memories.
