Any chance of negotiating a compromise before people start ignoring one another?

ignoring seems a lot more passive aggressive than it should be.

Rarity's been consistently great, I mean the personality I can take or leave but Tabitha's voicework combined with some of the animations they give her are excellent.

Rarity's always awesome, so that's a given.

Unlikely. They aren't breaking any actual rules so they can't be stopped, and they apparently think its funny(it's not, but if it were, at this point it'd be like beating a dead pony) so they're probably not gonna stop themselves anytime soon. So I'll just do what I do else where, ignore and/or mute(which on this site is known as ignore).

That said I will miss the occasional human/cos play pony pics. Course if i really want I can look at their post anytime even if they are ignored so no real loss.

 

[Pandaman]

yeah kaks, twilights episode was fantastic, i've always loved her but sadly there arent 5 slots between #1 and #2. ponies end up with rank 4/5 despite being awesome.

 

[ZealousD]

DEATH TO PONY LISTS

Spike is best character anyway.

 

[ahoyhoy]

Hate for AJ is hate for Amyrica.

Also, don't know how the hell Cheez could hate Dai's old avatar. Or maybe he's just pissed Dash never pulled off a perfect Harrison Ford face.

1. Twilight, Fluttershy, RBD, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Apple Jack
2. Luna, Celestia, Spike

99999999. Trixie, British kid, snips and snails

I think Rarity has become a bit too much of a caricature for my tastes when she is not the focus. But that's just the character itself, the work with her is unmatched.

Put Trixie on tier 3 and I'm behind this list.

 

[Pandaman]

i think snails is atleast a rank above snips.

 

[Uchip]

I bet it was you who tagged me, wasn't it?

I hope not - ignoring someone on an internet forum, especially over something so petty, is staggeringly childish.

objecting to quasi-bestiality is childish?

 

[CHEEZMO™]

Putting someone on ignore over it is.

 

[Uchip]

Putting someone on ignore over it is.

only if you were buddies prior

 

[Pandaman]

claims of bestiality kind of require us to ignore that the characters are sentient marshmellows shaped like ponies.

even if it would qualify under the label of bestiality, none of the negative connotations attached to actual bestiality would carry over.

 

[CHEEZMO™]

Well I'm just against people using the ignore function in general, so *shrug*

thats why i used "quasi"
theyre sentient in the way that Mr Ed is

 

[ahoyhoy]

If you agreed with panda's above statement you have to be for the usage of he ignore function. Otherwise they should be allowed to complain all they want since they have no other recourse that doesn't involv abandoning thread.

 

[CHEEZMO™]

If you agreed with panda's above statement

Which?

 

[Pandaman]

thats why i used "quasi"

if the quasi negates anything negative about bestiality, what exactly is your objection to it?

theyre sentient in the way that Mr Ed is

in the sense that the character being portrayed doesn't exist and should be differentiated from actual living animals, yes.

And I always loved this scene. Rarity going into bed, Rarity's frustration as she pulls the blanket, followed up by Applejack's "Ah ain't budgin'!"

 

[Pandaman]

Well no, they always have the option of not complaining.
i'm weirded the fuck out by pony anthro with fingers[like slugbox stuff] and the cosplay can be iffy at times, but i opt to just deal with it.

 

[Uchip]

if the quasi negates anything negative about bestiality, what exactly is your objection to it?

the objection being that the show is designed as an innocent childrens cartoon and people are rubbing their dirty nutsacks all over it.

its not that theres something morally wrong with sex between equally intelligent creatures, its just that you're portraying something innocent and without human female physical attributes in sexual situations, which is just a tad disturbing.

so why say 'quasi-bestiality' at all then? You seem perfectly capable of explaining the specifics of your objection without using an inaccurate and loaded term. plus the addition of the quasi- just makes it certain you would have had to explain in more detail eventually. Why not just say this [whats quoted above] the first time?

and without human female physical attributes in sexual situations, which is just a tad disturbing.

a requirement for 'human female physical attributes' hasn't ever stopped anyone before.

 

[Uchip]

so why say 'quasi-bestiality' at all then?

because they are physically (and sometimes mentally) horse
and its even worse when you add the pedophilic element into it

is this a justification? i dont even

Anyone else officially confused now?

Who doesn't enjoy shipping CheeriBelle?

 

[ZealousD]

Panda, as one of the few people on Earth with a complete lack of libido, you basically have no right to enter into any sort of conversation about sexual relations.

Or is he the only one allowed to?

 

[Pandaman]

but the problem with bestiality isn't that its a horse, its that a horse is incapable of consent and that any sexual interaction is necessarily abusive because of that.

marshmellow ponies dont have that problem.

and its even worse when you add the pedophilic element into it

the what?!

No, its a dismissal. Your point is either wrong or much too broad to be meaningful.

not feeling a need to take part doesnt mean its not interesting, plus im still somewhat of a romantic.

 

[AdawgDaFAB]

Damnit, you beat me to it!

 

[ZealousD]

No no, it's the way I said it.

 

[ZealousD]

Being a "romantic" and wanting some "bow-chicka-bow-wow" are different things.

As the man with no sex drive, you completely lack the context and experience the rest of us do. It would be like the person who's never had a driver's license telling somebody else how to drive. That person might read about driving in a book, but experience is the best teacher.

Sex is ultimately a process driven by emotion. You can't understand it unless you understand the emotion.

 

[ahoyhoy]

Eh, that's like saying people should "deal with" people screaming/heckling the screen at a movie theater. If people think something is annoying, you can't wholly disallow them from complaining (so long as they aren't whining alla Dog & Pony).

 

[Pancakes]

So...uh...ponies.

There's a My Little Pony episode in there somewhere.

I really don't see how that comparison works, on GAF you aren't paying for a service that is being disturbed and your complaining is not necessary to inform the ushers of the disturbance.

the environments are also vastly different and i would never accept that in a venue of discussion some people should be expected to be silent solely because their opinions are unpopular. We dont even do that for the 9/11 crazies.

Stop posting this sick disgusting shit.

Did we just have that last page entirely devoted to forum drama? Yeesh. I declare THAT to be the worst page ever.

I thought it was pretty fun actually. Bizarre circular arguments aside.

 

[ahoyhoy]

Nothing wrong with clearing the air every once and a while. Especially since its an essential part of of the Pony GAF cycle.

But indeed: on with the ponies!

 

[Pandaman]

yea i enjoyed it too.

although now my backspace key is acting up.

Every keystroke matters more than ever now.

Now for something completely different: don't think I ever showed Pony GAF my license plate

That's the second best license plate I've ever seen.
