And that's why Alex S is best pony. He's the only brony music producer that I really pay attention to, mostly because he makes music in the styles I like at the same level of quality that you can expect from the pros. I sort of wish he would just forget the whole brony thing and just make regular music though, 'cause he's easily good enough for it.

Take this for example:

I actually don't like this song. The singing irritates me. A lot. It completely ruins it for me. However, if you skip to 0:40 (or even better, 2:40) and listen to the bass drop, you'll find that he's more than capable of making dubstep at the same standard of some of big names out there (this song in particular sounds a lot like Flux Pavillion).

It makes less sense cuz I'm here. I'm an agent of disorder. It happens when you don't give a f@#k.

@Nemisis pro
Verbose would be so proud…

I think I know why they picked pinkie pie to babysit. I mean, she's got enough breast milk in those Knockers for an entire orphanage! LOL

Seroiusly though, WTF!?!

I don't think this is NSFW, she's fully clothed. I'll be expecting a down vote or two ( Im looking at you citation)

Okay, discussion piece.

Why do people like gore in their pastel ponies?

GO!

(Bonus points to whoever uses the word "irony" the most.)

Personally I think it has less to do with irony and is more about how they think putting 2 of their favorite things together will be the greatest thing ever weather it actually turns out good or not.

Best one I ever saw was TF@ Scout holding two baseballs instead of tits. Other one was Pyramid Head from Silent Hill and "Mega Rape" stamped across his rack.

If gore is your favorite thing….

YOU GOT A PROBLEM

EDIT: @ Nemisis Pro
Try not to quote long ass posts, especially when they just have pics. It makes the page look all messy. Especially that Busty pinkie pie.

I'm less of the crossover ALL the things mentality.

I think most of the unsavory things (R34, gore, grimdark), at least the most horrible of them (like Cupcakes) were done for teh lulz and for irony's sake.

Think about it. What is more ironic than My Little Ponies killing being psycho-murders or sexual deviants. NOTHING, that's what.


Yes, I brought this newfag here. I guess we'll just have to get him used to the way do do stuff here.

(If only Steve the Scout would too.)

I agree with you with this, Alex S is awesome, but not as much with the 'forget the whole brony' part.
I think it adds a little flare to his work, take Party With Pinkie for example:

Without Pinkie in it, without the 'bronyness' (shut up, it's now a word) this song just wouldn't be as great as it is now. Though I would like to see an instrumental version, I think it's a better quality song the way it is.
I would go on, but there's something else I need to work on at the moment.

Everything crosses eventualy. We may not like the results, but we do anything to satisfy our own morbid curiosity.

You'll find that's quite a bit less than the average time you'll have to wait for a reply on this thread. Things are moving unnaturally fast at the moment. Usually we'll fill 2 or 3 pages in an entire day, but right now we're going at about 3 times that speed.

Also:

Quoted from the KYM Forum Rules thread:

2b. Do not flood. “Flood” is a term to describe the rapid submission of a large quantity of redundant information. Examples: Posting the same thread multiple times; Posting several times in the same thread within a short period of time (double-, triple-, quadruple-posting and beyond); Posting the same content repeatedly on the same user area or a different user area (repeat comments, spamming comment threads or forum threads, etc).

You won't get banned for things like triple posting, but a lot of users get quite annoyed by it (hence why you lost karma). If you feel like you have more to add to a discussion, just edit it into your last post. If you want to quote multiple people, use blockquote tags and quote them manually (put [blockquote] in front of the text you're quoting and [/blockquote] at the end, but replace [ and ] with < and >).


@JAB

I'm gonna have to disagree with you there. I think the parts with Pinkie are the worst parts of that song. I really like the intro though, and often just listen up to the bit where Pinkie starts singing at 1:40.

While I'm on the topic of Alex S, I'm gonna post this awesome little number:

That's an example of a brony song he's done where I actually like the pony bits (though that's probably just because I'm a sucker for glitched lyrics).

Thnx, reason I'm a newfag is cuz every forum I've been on tends to die quickly with me here. That's why I don't usualy participate in this stuff. I hate to ruin fun for other people.

Yes, sometimes you do feel good getting hated on. Especially when posting R34 everywhere like I did. Then you get bored and post normally like everyone else. The faster, the better.

@ Ric Telsa

Well it is citation

Though, I'll admit I find it quite insulting when Citation makes comments like that. Sounds very "holier than thou" to be honest.

@Ideo
This really raises the question, how was I as a newfag?
I can't speak for myself but some people really seem to fit better here than others, regardless of lurk-time, for example:Engie (Yes, I picked the person I brought here, sue me!)

but seriously how was I as a newfag?

I'm definitely not the only poster to have these thoughts. I'm just the only one dickish enough to bring it into the thread.
And no, I'm not giving out names. Even I'm not that much of an ass.

Why do half of the users here never go anywhere else in the forums? Also when are we getting to part five of these threads cause this thread is slowly approaching it's 100th page.

It's not the hate, it's the fact that I caused destruction of logic and sanity. I've never been able to do something like this before, and I've never had anyone react to me the way people like you do. Power goes to your head, and you slowly spiral out of control. What others think, I couldn't possibly care less. That's just part of the end result. Sorry if I spoiled your thread. Anything I can do to make up for it, tell me.

NemesisPyro. Stop double/triple posting. I figure you're new, but for various reasons, posting multiple times in succession is frowned upon.


Sanity is an excuse for people not to do something. I discarded logic, reason, and sanity when I found out about the real world……

Interesting. You should explain it more.

However, I'd have to say sanity is a good thing. Being a little loose around the edges is fine, and can be good, but being insane does not make for a good life in society. Asylums and whatnot: that's where the insane go.

I think you may mean norms. The standard of normal prevents people from doing some things, but norms aren't always established for bad reasons. Norms do not always benefit some people, and norms cannot always be met by some people (whereas they can be met easily by others,) but I'd have to say that it's not just an excuse.

Example: It's not normal for older men to watch pastel-colored ponies, right? It makes sense to abide by those norms and, at the very least, not wear bronydom on one's sleeve if you're an older male. If you do not, then you may lose benefits from those who are normal in that respect. And having lived a little bit of life (assuming 25 years is longer than your experience with the world,) it's crucial to have the benefits of those who are "normal" to make life easier. At the very least, don't offend their sensibilities unless you really have to.

The majority tends to be much more powerful than the minority. Fairness is irrelevant, unfortunately.
 
 
But enough about real life, hm? Ponies? Ok.

Now. There can be something said about the power of irony. I don't get it, but supposedly people like to do things because they don't make sense. I like it in doses, but some like it in spades.

There may also be a little something to the ability to take something innocent and corrupting it. The reason behind that may be that it gives the creators a sense of power in being able to change something so drastically. Ponies is a popular and innocent concept that people can change.
 
 
Also, Ric's thought about softening the blow of losing something people really like was interesting. I'll bring up what I said before: I like good sadfics, because it makes me have a feel. Most of my emotions are blunted a bit, but I do like to feel them sometimes…especially since I know that the canon has those same characters as being fine and dandy.

Anyway, some people like to feel mortified or scared sometimes. I like to feel sad sometimes. I think some people like to feel angry. Even when (if not especially when) they don't have anything to be scared/sad/angry about.

And if something or someone you like that is innocent and pure happens to come across a poor fate, then it might make you more likely to have a feel.

Speaking of feels, if feels weird to throw in Web-speak into a lengthy post…

@Verbose: Melancholy, gloom, and other feelings of sadness are a major part of the goth subculture I believe. I think it's because we (goths) enjoy these feelings.

Verbose, the way the world's supposed to work does not conform to how we run it. People complain about how everything must be expalined, or work a certain way, either through logic, religion, or their own explainations. But the world works through chaos and chance. There is no logical explaination or way of doing things, so we shouldn't try to fight it, just let it take its course. Sanity, logic, and reason have no place in this world. Don't get mad at this post. He asked me to explain my thinking.

1: Because a lot of the users joined this site just for ponies. Frankly, those that do piss me off.
2: We switch threads every 200 pages. Or 10,000 posts. Both are the same length.

Though I do post in other threads occasionally, this is the only one that I find consistently interesting. Usually I don't feel like I can contribute anything worthwhile outside of here too, since I don't hold opinions on most other thread topics. There's also the problem that posting in this thread alone takes up way too much of my free time, and I dread to think of how much time I could end up wasting if I started posting elsewhere too.

Sounds like someone's a fan of The Dark Knight. You'll find that the world can quite easily be explained using logic. It's called science, and it's the reason that you're able to chat with people all over the world right now. It's also pretty obvious that the world doesn't run on chaos and chance alone, since we're able to reliably predict events. There is definitely some degree of order to the world.

Wow… lots of chaos. New member. People teaching the new member how this place works. Citation being Citation. Ashbot finally speaks in this thread. Ric getting mad at Citation. Verbose being chatty. Talk of gore with ponies. Aerostat shares his fear of being judged. Seems like a wonderful time to act.

@Nemesis

Don't worry, we all suck when we start. You'll get the hang of it, just listen to what all these guys say.


@Citation

Cheer up man. Life is far too idiotic to spend it with a frown.


@Ric

Put a smile on your face. That's how I deal with things.


@Verbose

Keep up the good work


@Ashbot

One of us. One of us. One of us.


@The gore conversation

I don't really care for gore. Insanity is more of my thing. But to each their own. We shouldn't judge others for who they are. Only cleanse them with holy flames.


@Aerostat

Don't be afraid of what others will think of you. Just be yourself and have fun. Speak only when you think there's something worth saying or if you think it'll be fun. And never let the opinions of others let you down.

I'm guessing this thread is gonna get a new part in like a month in a half then. You all are making good points. Sadly, it's probably for the best that half of the users in here, stay in here. Did they ever finish that MLP fighting game?
