So, have I missed anything pony-related worth knowing?

wow that's a coincidence
I just so happened to have made this a few days ago

I've been meaning to post this at some point on here but I felt it would be a little bit out of place and unrelated but now I have an excuse :D

also, to answer your question
this thread has been insane
topics are unclear and posting is fast

That reminds me, what is Zecora, well, other then a zebra, how are zebras different then horses, cause I myself have no clue.

Zebra's,biologically, are more similar to donkeys than to horses. Zebras are also more suited to rough and rugged terrain with few resources (mountains, the African fields or sahel), much like donkeys and burros. However unlike donkeys, zebras travel in herds and are quite social, like horses. In general, zebras are the middle ground between horse and donkey.

New forum, not much besides that.

But I guess you already noticed that.

What is happening? Can somepony fill me in?

We're having discussion about ponies and the relationship to zebras. There are images, but just less of them and they're focused around a subject.

Jump in, bro.
 
Now that I'm actually paying attention to it, Zecora's "cutie mark" doesn't look like much of a cutie mark. It just looks like a design. It's isn't colored like the ponies' are. But if a creator said it was a cutie mark, then I wonder what power gives it. I suppose magical "puberty" could occur in equines. I prefer to think that there is a higher god working magic or that there is a god for these two equine species.

Why didn't the donkey (or if it was a mule) have a cutie mark? Donkeys are equestrian too.

I don't think it's a cutie mark, it looks more like a tribal tattoo. Zecora's talent is concocting herbal remedies anyway, so I don't wager it has much to do with that. I'm pretty sure Ponies are the only equine race that have natural cutie marks, since both sentient cows and mules have appeared in the show without them.

I like to think when Zebra's reach adulthood they are given a tattoo on their flank possibly as a symbol of their family or tribe. If you want to get reeeaaaaaaly into the speculation department you could say they started practicing this tradition after encountering ponies, in compensation for their blank-flankedness.

I guess that's another thing to be defined. There's that random brown pony from Best Night Ever and Feeling Pinkie Keen with no cutie mark. Maybe not every individual equine gets one, but every species goes through that process on the whole.
 
 
I wonder if equines without cutie marks are relegated for comic relief…

EDIT:
With Gigatoast previous thought, maybe just some ponies, but only ponies specifically. Not all of them.

@supermonday
I read the thing you put on my wall and heres the info of my OC if you want to know what pics to put on if yeah want.
My OC:
Ric Tesla
OC of Warboss Brony/Ric Tesla
The Trigger
100% Arms
0% Charms
Mane/tail color: Brown
Eye color: Blue
Body color: Green
Likes: Science, creating things that are unnecessary, All food in general, to figure out how to make mechanical based life.
Dislikes: He doesn't like his intelligence be insulted by how he acts socially, Have to do things he does not agree too, gets nervous when need to go or do things hes not used too, gets nervous when meeting new people, anything that is a threat to sentient life.
Cutie Mark: Black Gear skull with crossing wrenches under it.
Race: Pegasus.
Gender: Male
Friends: Pinkie pie, Derpy hooves, and Fluttershy.
Additional Info: A mare that can be mentally insane at times but good hearted and like to say he does it for science when he really wants to do it for the lulz. He likes to innovate and invent even in unorthodox like ways. His goal in life is to trying to figure out how to make mechanical based life. Ric is a good person that does what he is told and feel guilty if he did something he was not supposed too. His main defence system is a portable exoskeleton that covers his entire body when he is in danger or in white hot unadulterated rage, the exoskeleton gives him a arm cannon of a Gatling gun and a power claw on the other hoof. He tends to make things that are considered troll science but he does not realise this at all.

Yeh, the wiki's where I get most of my information that isn't speculation. The cutie mark page mentions that the mark on Zecora is reminiscent to a cutie mark, but isn't really the same. It's still listed on the "list of cutie marks" page, but that's mostly just for reference.

And oh yeh I forgot about buffalo, they don't have cutie marks either.
