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

All of the usual forum rules apply. In addition, please remember that the thread is discussing a kids' show, and it's primarily focused on the work itself, not the fanfic — in particular, we don't want to see lewdness creeping in.

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!

but i'm not the only one who can't believe Hasbro actually copyrights the term "brony" now am I?

Legally, that's not possible. There's probably a mixup somewhere.

Here's a question. What form of government would Equestria have if the princesses had been gone for the last 1000 years?

There's absolutely no reason for anyone to copyright that word.

Unless Hasbro just wants to make more money off us.

[up][up][up] Equestria might be a republic, or something. Possibly a Triumvirate, with all three leaders working together.

By charging us to use the term? Sheesh, good luck with that.

What I thought you said might been a more interesting question.

What would ponies be like if Sunbutt and Moonbutt ended up destroying each other?

No princesses left. The unicorns in large shifts can manage the sun and moon, but it needs to be constant.

I think the "brony copyright" is just a silly rumor someone started because Hasbro is sometimes (often?) seen as Teh Big Bad Evil Soulless Power-Mad Corporation.

Dark- well, the reason I asked is for a fan fic where NM shoots Celestia right before being banished to the moon. Celestia dies a few months later, so Equestria is left without a princess. Trying to think how things would diverge from there.

Isn't that "Hasbro copyrighting the word 'brony'" rumor pretty old?

Not to mention that I've only heard about it from like one source, and that one is pretty questionable.

That reminds me, I saw some article somewhere that claimed to have done a survey of Rule34 sites which determined that Twilight Sparkle is the 2nd most rule 34'd character of all time.

\#1 is Chun Li from Street Fighter No idea how accurate it was, though. They could very well have stacked it to emphasize the OHNOES THE INTERNET MADE PORN OF A KIDS SHOW factor.

Remember when Nintendo licensed "It's on like Donkey Kong?"

Also, apparently the government owns the birthday song for some reason.

Any particular reason why?

For Avatar? IDK, I guess, excluding The Beach episode, everything kind of pissed me off about it at the time. I still do love "Tales of Ba Sing Se" at times. And Appa's lost days.

You're probably thinking of Bronystories' monthly r34 updates(don't worry, they're completely sfw!). Specifically, you were probably looking at this one.

and actually, Twilight overtook Chun Li back in February. Twilight is now officially the Princess of r34!

Or, it's simply that you aren't TOLD what you are a Princess of. it's what you CHOOSE. It's something they have to realize fro themselves and decide on.
