I'm still debating whether I should buy that. Probably will, if just to send up to my niece (who does like ponies, but I don't believe she's sold on the show so much as just liking to play with her large Rarity doll).

Besides, I'd love a boxset. Really, who wouldn't? And if buying this en masse convinces Shout! to reconsider, I'd do my part.
Shout isn't interested in reconsidering. They think that assorted episodes on single DVDs is the best plan for a little girls show, and a Blu-ray season boxset would make it a brony show. And they bought the rights to a little girls show, not a brony show. They will release a little girls show until the demand for it dries up. They have no interest in releasing a brony show. If we wanted to see the release of a brony show, we should've put our money on the line and bought the rights before they did.

If we're interested in shoring up support for their release of a little girls show so that it survives longer (which might not be the best plan from a brony standpoint), Shout is willing to take our money. But they don't have any system in place to tell them who the money came from, because they don't care. We can all preorder the DVD from Amazon.com in the hopes of making a statement, but we could all just be soccer moms. Everybody uses Amazon nowadays.


Although I should say that I still haven't cancelled my DVD preorder, because I'm a fool.

I remember when Panda posted a comic of a dude kissing Twilight. In a bed.

You sick fucks wouldn't even blink at that shit now.

What has happened to you all.

Community does things to a thread.

Also I'm pretty sure that was him as a pony kissing Twilight, which is a whole 'nother level of creepy.

A lot of us realized that this material being propagated out on the 'nets wouldn't actually harm our ability to enjoy the show like we thought it would.

Also this. I still think that pic is creepy; for different reasons than the above Twilight pic.

True. This might just be (almost certainly is) a geek hierarchy thing, but the panda comic was a wee bit too wish fulfillment for my tastes.

Being a pervert is something most internet denizens learn to cope with at some point or another. Having to escape something so bad you insert yourself into pony world? Whole other kettle of fish. Not to say, of course, that those snap judgments are justified, only that that is what my highly unreliable gut reaction is to those things.

Ponies making headlines in Finland!
Aamulehti, Finland's second-biggest daily newspaper, published an article on the brony phenomenon and last weekend's pony meetup in it's Friday supplement, Valo.

The headline reads:

Smack the Pony
Bronies: Grown men sucked into the world of My Little Pony. The result is a community with a big heart.

It's a nice little article and quite positive, emphasising the brony community as the main reason so many adults are attracted to the show.

Love and tolerance. It's in the thread title.

So, any nice ideas for the next community thread OP?

I think a translation is in order, if you'd be willing to do it. We would be delighted to read it, and you'd be able to submit it to EqD!
 
4chan apparently now has a /pony/ board.

I'm honestly expecting them to pull a /fur/, though, where they lure all the interested parties into one place and then ban anyone who ever posted in it.

Just finished episode 13 last night. Only watched one because I was pretty tired. It was the one with the race. It was a good one. I do like both Rainbow and Apple Jack so it was cool to see an episode focused just on them. Also Pinkie Pie was funny up in the hot air balloon booth. I also liked how they were playing dirty and using all types of shenanigans to fuck each other up. It sorta flowed like an old Bugs Bunny cartoon. Good episode all around. Also, Rainbows voice is awesome. How it has that little rasp to it and crack.

Well, I was looking more for suggestions for the OP itself.

An avant-garde collection of images, .WAV files, and paragraphs written in assorted dead languages that when examined by the untrained eye on a Tuesday in a particularly steamy July through a basin of pickled beets that have been blessed by a Catholic Cardinal preaches the joys and benefits of watching a show made for little girls.

Ooops, too risky it seems. Message is gone :p
Once you put something on the Internet, you can't really unput it.

I'm really glad you're enjoying it, at least those 17 votes I got you were worth something. :)

So when we do hit 20,000 posts with this thread, will it be the first PonyGAF thread to die of natural causes? Didn't all the other ones get shut down before hitting the limit?

As for what we need in the OP, hmm, well I can't think of much except for some of the customs and rules we've built up in these threads. Like "Don't link to full episodes.", "Don't feed the parasprites." and of course how and where to find the PonyGAF IRC and such. It would be great to highlight some of the PonyGAF fan creations for the show, and of course Belle Eve. I'm sure we have a few things from this thread we want to carry over as examples.

As for name, I'm partial to "My Little Pony FiM Community |OT2| The fun has been DOUBLED!" But my avatar might show my particular bias in that case.

someone points out that this is 9 days before the 1 year anniversary of 4chan banning mlp.
