KYM Pony General III: This time, it's personal

I frankly see no need to have a separate pony forum. There are hundreds of pony forums out there and let's be frank, we couldn't fill a forum, mostly it's just image spam.

If this thread slowed down a bit and the main article had a few less comments, everything would be peachy.

Oh and guess I'm cool with Humanized ponies as well. JJ draws the best humanized Applejack.

It doesn't matter where bronies go, trolls and hate will come. It's the fate of a hated fandom.

If you want a seperate site, go make it yourself. For me KYM works fine, it has memes and ponies and memes and pony memes (yes I said memes 3 times). Plus, if all the forums would be about MLP, that would become boring real quickly. We have Ponychan for that.

Say to be honest when you think about it there is not that much pony on the site compared to the rest of it.

If it gets boring, then you leave. If you go to a site clearly labeled "Know Your Pony Memes" and expect to see other things BESIDES ponies, you should get your head checked.

I wouldn't mind the forum slowing down, but then again, I'm one of those folks who actully doesn't like image spam, though I think I've already stated that.

I don't mind posting an image every now and then in response to something else, such as I did with RandomMan's picture on the last page, but whole pages of images? As Sweetie Belle and Fluttershy would say "NO!"

Yes, we do. But that's not the reason you have that much krama. We use krama differently than other users.
 
I went to see what the purpose of the voting-point system was, and it was a way to approve of a post that contributed something meaningful to the topic or discussion without saying "THIS." This is the only thread I've seen that has had karma parties. Multiple karma parties. With little to no bearing on the nature of the post.

So, sorry to say, it's probably more that you post here a lot (see your Conversationalist status while posting a massive majority in the highly active KYM Pony thread,) and the people that post here give out krama very easily. Therefore, you get krama more easily and more often than other users with less effort.

Not that there's anything wrong with that. But some people who value karma, well…


Quite right, Spike.

It's like your Conversationalist status. I've been trying to make decent (not always long) posts that contribute to multiple topics and games in hopes of being a Conversationalist. Not that it does anything. I just don't like the Commentator title after half of a year of posting.

You got there by posting far less words in your posts in one thread much more active than others in about a month. I admit, i so jelly. And it's within the "rules," but I know how it's bothersome for other users who got there by actually being Conversationalists and not just posting a lot.

I'm with Dr. Ray on this one.
I sort of stopped posting for ages when the thread first started speeding up so much.
I was just a bit put off by a massive page of images and the occasional 7 word post

EDIT: Saw Verbose's post then realised I was now a commentator
When did that happen? lol

Sweetie Belle said it and not Scoots? Guess that's why I couldn't find a video of him saying it.

Oh, and could I have a link to that humanized AJ? I'm not a big fan of humanizations, in fact I've only found one that I liked. I'm a big fan of Applejack though, so I'm curious.

Yeah I know. I don't really say much. Part Fluttershy.

Yep, it was Sweetie Belle who said as seen here so yep. Not sure if Scootaloo has ever said no in the show yet.

I manely like the colt-versions of the mane cast.

Yeah you're right.
And i don't play the heavy that much
(i play Scout, Pyro, And Sniper)

I don't mind that type of stuff, but I don't necessarily LIKE it. I just like to leave the things the way they are, it's part of what gives the show it's charm.

I like Heavy, but then again, in those kinda games, I'm better at shooting stuff and that's all about what the Heavy is about.

Though my best would probably be with the Medic, anything else though I'm horrible, so horrible at.

We love and tolerate each other a bit too easy. But yeah, sometimes this forum has too much karma whoring.
I rather not participate in it.

And don't worry Verbose. Your long posts usually have good information and get auto-karma from me, like this post for example.

I don't know about you but I just don't see it poping up on the front pages of "memebase.com" at all atleast. The only time I see the images on the site like failblog or something like that is on "My Little Brony". The images rarely shows up on there. See what I mean?

I don't usually go to this forum unless I'm bored and have nothing to look at on Tumblr, Ponibooru, and Youtube.

He did say "noooooooooooo!" but that was just at the end of Cutie Mark Chronicles when the mane cast decided to sing.

Ah yeah, that's right, and just to let ya know, the CMC are all girls, just like the mane cast. Male characters seem really limited in the series unfortunately. I know they're there, but they're not used that much.

Just practice and soon you'll find out what class's you're best at.
i don't play the heavy cuz of his slow speed makeing him easy to kill
and lack of practice needed to get kills, then again, is about teamwork
after all and he's good for team pushes and a best paired with a medic.

Trust me, I can practice till I'm blue in the face and I will still suck at anything that's not Heavy or Medic. Particularly when it comes to the Spy.

Are we talking about TF2 now?
I'm quite partial to the sniper.
Partly because I can't be bothered to try any of the other classes because they're too confusing
Partly because the Australian accent is the best accent ever (e.g. Tim Minchin).

I also use the spy sometimes but I usually get pwned.

So what do you guys think the new episode is going to be like this week? Do you think 4 great episodes in a row will become 5 Saturday? I honestly don't know what to expect anymore after seeing Lesson Zero because I didn't think I would like it as much as the Discord episodes based on the synopsis, but I was hella wrong.

Well here is some Tips and tricks
Is a Team fortress 2 Wiki full of Everything you need to know about
The maps, Classes, and weapons.
The spy is hard to play for alot of players.
i still get a 50 Deaths 50 kills when playing my best classes.
Just keep playing and you'll start geting good.

I don't know, for me, probably not, but then of course, Rarity is not particularly one of my favorite ponies, but Sweetie Belle is just to adorable.

Look what you've done.

Sorry Rarity. The thing is, and I know I'll probably get downrated for it, but she kinda acts like Blueblood, though of course, unlike Blueblood, she does have her good points, but yeah, Rarity is just not my favorite pony.

I don't hate her, but I don't care for her.

And to hopefully make up for what I said Make your own pony animations

comforts Rarity I understand. Also, I have finally uploaded my song and I will link it when it's done processing and please be gentle with your criticism.

It sounds like something that would be the background music for a creepypasta game. Is that what you were going for?

It would be better if it had drums, in my opinion.

I was just looking at that really. And I can make the ponies do stuff but I'm not sure how to make like a little scene or something.

I'm going to be honest here: it's not good. I'm sorry, but there's no real beat, and it sounds more like some random sound effects thrown over a repeating synth note.
I'm being honest about it. You've got potential, but you need to work on making it sound better.

Wow, I missed out on some great discussions. The one day I decide to do something social and go out, you all start having fun without me. A sadder Owens has never been seen.

Anyways, the next episode is going to rock my socks off, plain and simple.

It could be the worst episode ever made, but still rock my socks off.

That's part of the fun in getting new content: even if its bad, you don't realize its bad at first, because you simply don't care. Its new.

@Ideo Gonna agree with Citation, but not be brutally honest, because I suck at that. It sounds like something out of Sonic the Hedgehog, though I don't think that's what you were going for.

Keep trying, though. You'll get it, sure enough. You've earned a subscription from me for your efforts, and I expect great things from you.
