Flash indeed. A lot of people got into the show because they were already into animation, but I got into animation because I was already into the show, and it’s gone well enough since then. I haven’t been at it very long; really only since July.

You do any sort of art or music?

Usually people don’t get admin for about three days, so don’t worry. Also, just to make sure you’re qualified, are you between the ages of 5 and 10?

Gordon Ramsay is one of those people who becomes inexplicably funnier when you censor his swearing instead of allowing it.

On a scale of vain to incredibly vain, how vain would it be for me to mention Super Smash Ponies in this article?

So. Cease and desist. One thing I don’t like is when people try to defend Hasbro’s actions under the guise of “if they don’t defend their trademark, they lose it.” This isn’t true; trademarks are only lost under the conditions of "abandonment, improper licensing or assignment, or genericity.” We all understand the ideas of improper licensing and genericity, and we know that the My Little Pony trademark was not licensed to Mane6 nor has it become a generic name for fighting games or toys for little girls, so the real grey area is abandonment, which many people take to mean failure to enforce. Abandonment is generally dealt with on a case-by-case basis, but generally refers to a trademark falling into disuse by the company that owns it. It has nothing to do with allowing or disallowing another group to use your trademark for, say, a fan-made fighting game.

Yeah, copied/pasted from my forum post a few days ago because lazy. Also vain.

Ponies and deer are, like, the same animal, right? Remind me to make you an animated deer some day.

Okay, I’m going to clear up what I guess are some concerns. 9gag was never listed as the source. However, there was a single instance on the entry of an image from 9gag, because it was legitimately the oldest upload of the most notable example that I could find. Because I acknowledge that 9gag has a massive userbase that could potentially create funny OC once in a while, I decided to put it in. However, I obviously overlooked the fact that you people aren’t able to understand that. I knew it was likely a reupload, but I was unable to find an older source, and I’m unwilling to lie and use a more recent example from reddit or something just to keep 9gag off the page. Yes, I dislike 9gag as much as the next guy, but you need to get over your meme elitism and acknowledge that there will be times when it is appropriate to feature content from the website.

Thanks for the editorship on Fighting is Magic. At the moment there are no Internets to be found on my computer, but I’ll start working as soon as my network is back up.
