A thread to discuss My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the tie-in media.

I don't know WHAT the Hell happened (I blame shenanigans) but we're going to start from scratch. Post your feels for this awesome show again! Naow!

Ginger's an alright guy, but damn he tires you out with his hissy fits, demanding villain answers, and going on rants when not satisfied, which is almost all the time.

It's like he combines Innocently Insensitive with a bit of It's All About Me.

Honestly, I've found the easiest way to deal with Ginger when he gets in moods like that is to just let it happen... every time I try to help it just gets worse. I honestly think he wants to get upset and vent to some degree. He says he doesn't get like that at all in real life, or at least unrelated to media, so I dunno.

But yeah, he's a good guy... just a shame about that temper.

Ah Ginger. Haven't heard that name in a long while.

Going on a Dresden Files related rant about finding the villains one dimensional. Trying to explain only makes it worse, then he wonders why your abandoning him when you start to express frustration. SO it's a bit of a double standard.

Thanks, Syd! I haven't really drawn anything in the past few months, so I've been trying to flex my drawing muscles somewhat so I can get back in drawing-shape.

Also, glad that ya like MLP a ton, Danny!

Yeah, he's difficult to please. The whole reason why he got banned to begin with was because he threw a fit on the FOE thread about how half of Project Horizons didn't have any good villains.

I kind of wonder what he would think of Megatron and Tarantulas, come to think of it.

[down]Considering how competent those two are..... Wow.

..he'd find something minor about one little thing they did to rant about.

Yeah I know I go off sometimes, but he was a true master at that.

Yeah, he was a nice guy, it's just that he had a tendency to rant whenever something hit one of his Berserk Buttons, and didn't have much impulse control. Didn't help that whenever a plotline would go a way he didn't like, he'd sometimes take it a bit too personally; like it was written that way just to spite him or something.

And put WAY to much emphasis and weight on what others thought of something. Hating it when a lot of people liked or didn't like something he did.

Yeah I called it quits with him for the day before I said something I'd regret. I reminded him he was banned for a reason, and that he should be lucky some friends here keep in contact with him and try keeping up with his neurosis.

Speculate, panic, delve through every scrap of 'official' pony merch and news, enjoy the joy of the comics. And see just what kind of awesome fanworks come out over the break.

Well I'm working on an Achron inspired game for the IWBTG fangame contest. And in two days I'll be going on vacation.

Heh, I guess.

Random thought: Considering how ponies are responsible for the upkeep of their world, I'd like to see sea ponies be responsible for ocean currents.

I'd like to see sea ponies, period.

I'd also like to see a G4 Megan, but they've avoided humans up to this point.

I always hoped they'd Eqgify her for a cameo, but guess not. Would have been nice for MLP's 30th which they barely did a thing for. And it'd come full circle in the franchise as it started with a human going to a pony world and at that point a pony going to a human one. Ah well.
