So… Opspe is the lesbian of our group then… I'm kidding, I don't care for the whole sexual orientation thing, I just thought it would be funny to say.

Edit: Darn. New Page Get. Now I have to leave off on a good note… Well, at least you can do the sonic rainboom.

I hate that dash pic. She looks like a fucking jelly bean with stumps and a head. ha ha

Well I was just thinking about the douche-bag aspect of her (and I guess my?) personality, but thanks for bringing that up too.

Nah, you guys are awesome. And apparently I'm even more so. Whoops, better keep that ego in check.

@Dac: your avatar scares me, and I don't know why. That wink, it just…..[shudders]

Umm, excuse me?

I re-took the test after having some doubts about being so Pinkie-like

Most of my answers in this second round were the same. I didn't change circumstantial answers but I changed some preferential ones. I:E: I realized I liked avocado more than banana, the meaning of life is 42 (cant believe I missed that the first time) and Rock…because Tom

The result:

I'm Twilight!...Barely!

Pinkie still holds a majority of my personality, beaten only by a tiny fraction. This test is still absolutely convinced that I am Pinkie Pie! I don't know what I am giving this test that makes me sound like Pinkie. I can see the answers that totally reflect Pinkies personality and I never clicked on them.

Also worth noting is that the test now thinks I am bolder than it originally though. Taking some points off my fluttershy scale and giving it to RD. I think that is more accurate; I'm not courageous and assertive like RD but I'm not completely spineless either

[edit]

DISREGARD THAT! I'M 20% COOLER!

That's right bitches! I'm the best goddamn pony you mere mortals have ever laid eyes upon! My personality is better than everyone else's, but of course you guys knew that already

WHOS THE BEST? IM THE BEST! WHOS THE BEST? IM THE BEST! SWAG!

….

OK I lied, that time I just picked all the answers that sounded like self absorbed douchebaggery.

Welcome, PluNlu (no, I did not copy and paste your name to avoid having to figure out if those were L's or I's!)
 
You know, since I'm up late again with work, I decided to float on back to the thread and see what was up. Nintendork64 had found that quiz, so I thought it would be nice to go ahead and confirm my obviously Twilight-like pers-

…Well, then.

I guess that makes sense. Incoming tl;dr.

I like Rarity, but I'm nothing like her. I'm not concerned with easily changeable aspects of my looks, love sports and physical stuff, and prefer to use whatever wit and smarts I have over my charm.

I'm surprised I have any Pinkie traits, but not so much Fluttershy. When I want quiet, I want quiet and right then. And I usually want quiet. I give my all for my friends, but I usually don't want to bother with new people if I can help it. Nothing against people I don't know, but if I'm going to be friends with a person, I want to be a good friend. I'm going to put a lot into the relationships I have.

The Dash section is probably due to my love of sports. I love working out with weights, more cardiovascular stuff like running, and team sports. I've always been a better than average athlete. But I've always been a better than average student as well. I like discussing things and figuring out the nature of the world (generally, people.)
 
I guess there's a lot of Applejack in those traits though. I'm too quiet (believe it or not) to be bluntly honest, but I dislike having to blatantly lie. Own up to your mistakes or dismiss lies as such. Let's get to the heart of the matter so we can fix it. And I've certainly worked myself ragged in my responsibilities (up at 4am for research, because I said I'd do it before a certain date or trying to make sure I can address the people who contact me directly on KYM.)

But I'm not upset at all. AJ is the most balanced pony of the bunch. I consider my self-perceived well-roundedness to be one of my greatest strengths.

The in-depth description does seem to fit me.

A real hard worker you are, yup. If there's one thing you hate, it's being inactive or coming across as lazy. You'll put in more effort than anyone else, even if it may be against your better judgement or even if delagating your work is a smarter option.
 
Can't stand being lazy. I'm a slacker in some sense, but if I have a responsibility, I'll do my best to get it done. Especially if someone else is relying on my performance.
 
It's not surprising to see you working all day long, even if it's to help friends out. However, friendship is still important to you, so you will always, always stick to your commitments and keep your promises.
 
All of undergrad; in work, in research, in extracurriculars, and with my friends. I regret nothing about the effort I spent on my friends. Maybe everything else though…
 
You're a tell-it-like-it-is pony, not holding your tongue and telling whoever whatever's on your mind or what your true thoughts are. Thankfully, you can still pick your words carefully and still keep some sensitivity towards what you say. But, others may find you irritable in appearance if you're not getting your way or you feel against something.
 
Dunno. You'd have to tell me. I feel like I hold my tongue a lot, but any halfway perceptive person could figure out if I'm annoyed with something (I think nukefire saw that brief hiatus from a while ago coming.) I don't get annoyed or bothered much, but when I do, I'm not going to try to hide it. I'm going to want to try to fix the problem. Preferably without starting new ones.

Ergo, hiatus.
 
You are also most likely to be athletic and into staying fit, knowing that if you're not, you won't be able to keep up with your work. Fashion and looking good aren't on the top of your priorities, to say the least.
 
My work is actually school and research. I like to be athletic, because I like being physically able to do just about anything. It's nice knowing you can run a mile if you need to or bench your body weight or fill in for a person on a recreational sports team.

I don't care about fashion at all. I like jeans and a comfy t-shirt in the warmer seasons, and a hoodie in the fall.

You also tend to be very protective of your friends, standing up for them against anyone who is causing them problems, and usually succeeding in warding off any foes. You'd gladly lose a limb if it meant saving a friend's life.

What's life without good friends and family? Limbs are overrated.

However, I've found that I generally get away with having a unpopular stance on something when trying to defend a friend. I think it's just because I use big words sometimes or because I'm fairly articulate and lack an accent.

So yeah. I'm good with Applejack.

Related: I've wondered how the mane six would respond to having fans out there. Not the creepy ones…just people like the ones on this thread who think a particular pony is cool.

Rarity is plenty confident in herself, so I think she's just be appreciative. Dash has some confidence issues, so she'd probably be more thrilled to know that. Twilight and Fluttershy, strangely enough, might act similarly. I don't think either really wants to be in any limelight since both spend a lot of time to themselves. AJ is like Rarity in confidence, because she knows what she's good at. She'd just say "Thank ya' kindly," and would be on her way.

Pinkie would throw a party.

Geez, that's the third time in a few days that I've eclipsed the 5,000 character limit…

Algernon wants in on this personality quiz

That's almost what I expected, but not quite. I was correct in thinking I would get a lot of Twilight and a lot of Fluttershy, and they were pretty much the only ones where I scored higher than average. I wasn't expecting to get such a well-rounded result from the other members of the mane 6 though.

I've always found Twilight to be the most relatable, mostly because of her appreciation of academic subjects (something that's unfortunately quite rare IRL) and her introversion. I've also found Fluttershy to be quite relatable, but only because she prefers to keep things quiet and she's shy around new people. I'm not much like her in terms of kindness or bravery.

Getting Applejack in third surprised me. I don't consider myself to be much like her at all. I might have only got her since I picked apples as my favourite fruit. I expected to get Rainbow Dash in third, since I have a tendency to get really competitive with close friends. As for Pinkie and Rarity, I have no idea where they came from. I've never considered myself to be even remotely similar to them.

Now for the in-depth personality report: (totally not stealing Verbose's format here)

You're often found diving into a book or spending hours working on that project of yours. It's important that you put in as much of an effort learning as possible so your knowledge will someday come in handy. Because of this, you may sometimes be skeptical of things that you don't have any proof of.

Yeah, this is me described down to a tee. I place academic success as my number one priority in life, and I value my limited scientific knowledge more than anything else I own. The whole skepticism thing suits me right too. I've never been a big fan of faith, not even in principle (hence why something felt off to me in Feeling Pinkie Keen, even after realising it wasn't supposed to be a religious message).

While you tend to be booksmart as opposed to streetsmart, you also tend to be a tad socially awkward, not always sure how well you fit in with your friends or maybe not even having a lot of them in the first place, but you're still a solid friend when it comes down to it and would be there to help any of them with their problems.

Again, that does sound like me. I've always been a bit socially inept, but at the same time I've somehow managed to maintain a close circle of friends for a long time. I kept the same trend when moving to uni, where I was only able to make 3 friends yet was able to get to know them surprisingly well in just a couple of months.

Even though you may be talented, you're the total opposite of a showoff, shying away from bragging or even talking about your talents. You don't want the world to think you're a braggart, after all. You're quite humble and modest, but you're also looking for acceptance and praise for your talents.

Not really sure how to respond to that. Thanks, I guess? I wouldn't agree with that entirely, since:
1) I don't consider myself to be particularly talented
2) I have a tendency to brag to my friends if I ever beat them at anything
However, I never brag to people I don't know well, and I never bring up my own achievements in conversation unless someone else brings them up first, so I guess there's some truth in that.

Hmm… Fluttershy, you say? Well now. That's not surprising.

Omc that test looks awesome, I'll take it when I get back home. I really have no idea who I'm going to be like.

Yeah , that pic of RD is really creepy.

iPad, y u type so slow today?

Which I guess is ok.

It's pretty good yeah, as I'm above average at everything (except Rarity, there I'm average). I wouldn't call myself a hard worker like Applejack though, but I'm fine with the rest of her. So I guess I'm just average, but just a bit more for Pinkie and AJ.

But I'm also suprised. Where all of you lack something with a certain or multiple pony/ponies, I have something in common with all of them.

Hay where is the link for that quiz anyways? I can't find it for some reason. :(
Also good morning everypony!
And did some one say that there is a Brony KYM steam chat? If so invite me please!

I feel like I know even less about myself than I did before the test. I don't know why i scored so high in the way of applejack, I'm a pretty apathetic person.

In depth analysis! because all the cool kids are doing it!

You're often found diving into a book or spending hours working on that project of yours. It's important that you put in as much of an effort learning as possible so your knowledge will someday come in handy. Because of this, you may sometimes be skeptical of things that you don't have any proof of.

All of this is true apart from the whole book thing, my motto is 'There's no such thing as a good book'. However, I love to learn in my spare time using the internet. Just not books. The sceptic thing is also correct.

While you tend to be booksmart as opposed to streetsmart, you also tend to be a tad socially awkward, not always sure how well you fit in with your friends or maybe not even having a lot of them in the first place, but you're still a solid friend when it comes down to it and would be there to help any of them with their problems.

The only thing about this I disagree with is 'a tad socially awkward'. A tad doesn't even begin to describe it. I suppose the friend thing is true as well, I've never really felt like I have that many really close friends.

Even though you may be talented, you're the total opposite of a showoff, shying away from bragging or even talking about your talents. You don't want the world to think you're a braggart, after all. You're quite humble and modest, but you're also looking for acceptance and praise for your talents.

I'm a little bit unsure of this part, I talk about playing guitar and writing music all the time. Although, I wouldn't put this down to being a braggart. I'd put it down to the fact that playing guitar is pretty much all I do. Some of my friends just know me as the guitarist. Some of them think I'm a god like guitarist and I always have to tell them I'm not that good.

I did the quiz and it told me I work hard.
I think I'm going to re-do it.

It can be found in giant green letters on the image.

That is my only hint.

They must not know our secrets!
MUFFINS! AAAAWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYY!!!
OMG! So many bucking questions! O:

☢CAUTION!!☢ Incoming rant! ☢CAUTION!!☢

Okay, I always hate to bring this kind of stuff to the conversation. But after I read this post at Equestria Daily, a small part of me died yet again.

Please guys, don't tell me you went along this farce too. I trust the KYM community to be above that.

They are trying to dominate a goddamn toy poll just because it has ponies in it. Do they even realize that they're becoming good little puppets of Hasbro? It's not even about the show, like the Naughty or Nice competition (which had almost the same reaction on me), but it's about the same crappy quality toys, that the fanbase wants Hasbro to stop making.

After the stuff EqD has been pulling off lately (remember the KYM best meme poll), I'm getting a good look at just how obsessive and manipulative our fandom can be…

It's stuff like this that tends to make me ashamed of being a part of the fandom (besides anthro and R34 stuff of course). And I'm sure some of you can agree at least to some extent.

Anyways, sorry if I sounded like a total idiot with that little rant, but I just had to say it.

And ironically enough, I did the personality test too, and got myself a Fluttershy.

And now, back to drawing ponies.

Poor poll, it never had a chance.

What's this? A personality test? I must try this for myself!

EDIT: Somehow I was Ninja'd by Muumi.

@Muumi
I agree with you on that, this is just low of Equestria Daily. It's these type of posts that make people believe we force ponies on everyone. MLP doesn't need to be the best at everything.

Yeah, it's just like with the KYM poll. Fucking ED, they ruined the entire purpose of the poll. It actually forced us to not declare a winner, but just mention multiple. Bronies from ED were mass voting on MLP, making others attempting to counter it by voting on Spider-man, even when that wasn't their choice. The amount of votes at the end of the poll didn't represent anything anymore.

But ignore my rant, continue with the ponies.

I'm a little confused by my results.
on to the analysis!

A real hard worker you are, yup. If there's one thing you hate, it's being inactive or coming across as lazy. You'll put in more effort than anyone else, even if it may be against your better judgement or even if delagating your work is a smarter option. It's not surprising to see you working all day long, even if it's to help friends out. However, friendship is still important to you, so you will always, always stick to your commitments and keep your promises.

I am not a hard worker. I'm actually pretty bad at working hard. If I can find even a little excuse to not do work I'll use to justify my laziness. I am also mostly inactive. I spend most of my days interneting and staying inside. I put in considerably less effort they everybody else (which is why I'm failing business in school). I admit I will help a friend out if they need help. Most of the day I'm not working but I do agree that friendship is important and I will keep promises.

You're a tell-it-like-it-is pony, not holding your tongue and telling whoever whatever's on your mind or what your true thoughts are. Thankfully, you can still pick your words carefully and still keep some sensitivity towards what you say. But, others may find you irritable in appearance if you're not getting your way or you feel against something.

I don't really think I'm a tell it like it is person either. Usually if I have something to say but the general opinion is against it I'll just keep it to myself.

You are also most likely to be athletic and into staying fit, knowing that if you're not, you won't be able to keep up with your work. Fashion and looking good aren't on the top of your priorities, to say the least. You also tend to be very protective of your friends, standing up for them against anyone who is causing them problems, and usually succeeding in warding off any foes. You'd gladly lose a limb if it meant saving a friend's life.

I am not athletic to any extent of the word. I can't remember the last time I exercised. Fashion I admit is not important to me, generally I'm quite a scruffy person and I usually just wear a shirt and jeans. I wouldn't say I'm protective of my friends, I'm what you might call a 'pussy-ass bitch'. If someone was getting annoyed at one of my friends I'd probably stand back and shit myself to avoid any confrontation.

Stupid quiz is broken.

@Muumi
They should stop doing that or the haters will get even more pissed which means even more annoying and cause even more hell for the bronies that didn't even want to vote.
I can really care less about some sort of toy product poll. I just want to post ponies. Hell I was sort of hoping to keep this fandom some what a hipster thing. (Well in reality. The internet is different).

I got Rainbow Dash and I ain't too proud of that to be honest. I specifically put "I don't like being #1, but I'll make the best #2 you've ever seen!" and the first line of the personality description was "You like being #1 at everything!"

But did anyone else pick Scootaloo as a pet and get this in the corner of their screen?

I got Twilight Sparkle.

@Muumi – that's exactly why we have such a bad name. Well that and the R34.

@StarGazer – join the club! ahahaha

I wanted to be a combination of Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy to be honest with you all.

Seriously?

@Ric
Why? I thought we'd already scientifically proved that Twilight is best pony.
Though a combination of Pinkie and Fluttershy would be interesting… a quiet party animal…

If you check the comments on the EqD page for that poll, there are surprisingly few people speaking against it. A few of them made a fair point on the issue – this wasn't a serious poll. It wasn't like it was there for any market research or anything, and it isn't on a site where any haters will see it, so nobody is really losing out. If anything, we've probably just helped out a toy site by drawing traffic. I'm not saying I support what they're doing, just that I don't think it's particular damaging.

On the other hand, spamming the Naughty or Nice poll was pretty thoughtless of them. There were probably a load of kids hoping for a Transformers marathon or something, and we went and ruined it for them, despite the fact that most bronies don't even watch The Hub. I don't care that we dominated the 'Who would win in a fight?' poll, but I'm not proud of the fact that we destroyed Naughty or Nice.

Yep, at this point it is pretty obvious that EqD is doing things like that just to troll.

The wanted to ruin a poll. Not promote Ponies.

The EqD members probably don't realize the impact their actions have IMO. Thinking that fixing a vote for a kids toy line is just innocent pranking with no real repercussions. As Algernon pointed out, it could well be that and nothing more but I understand the concern that people can see that EqD post and use it to strengthen any negative feelings they might have already against Bronyism

Perhaps you can address them yourself Muumi; by posting an article on EqD that details exactly how behavior like that is causing damage to the Brony reputation. They might just agree with you.

BTW Muumi you have the most interesting test result so far as it is seemingly contradictory; major levels of Rainbow AND Fluttershy? Major levels of Pinkie AND Twilight? ….your personality is like a mixture of water and vinegar…twice

Not that, that's a bad thing. You just have an interesting organisation of personality traits.

Lastly I now have proof that people comment on this page without reading the previous ones first…. :D

Otherwise Ric Tesla would have found the link to the personality test on the last page and Stargazer would have noticed that I pointed out the Scootaloo pop-up image already :)

Oh look the sun is rising…I should probably go to bed

@Algernon
Yeah! :D
I think I am like Twilight too when it comes to science, I got a grey area though.
Yes I am hard working person, I am will to do what needs to get done, but i'm slow at it in school and I constantly need help from a teacher for something.

On top of that the thing is when I get home, my hard working self goes offline and becomes a lazy bastard, I get easily annoyed if my parents tell me take out the trash or do my part in the kitchen, I will get the job done, but I won't be a happy camper about it.

Inevitable with out proper motivation of putting any work in stuff I am not in the mood in doing or have any interest in, I will not do it, unless I am at school or when I am at work when I get a job in the near future. (The lowest grades I got at school over all is a at least a B, the highest Is possible an A not an A+ because I have yet to get an over all 100% in any subject on my report card).

But thankfully I am really interested of how the world around me works. The fact that if I know everything mankind learned so far, I could increase it even further then eventually I can do things like created a walking death machine out of my computer or a microwave, just for the lulz too.

You best believe, bronies.

@Fridge
Join me Fridge! and we will science together!

This is…..EXACTLY what I expected! I was afraid of some of my choices (oh no, I'm not getting AJ am I? ) but it turned out what I wanted it to be.

As for the EqD poll thing, I won't hold it too hard against them, I once linked them to an interview by the developers of Mechwarrior Online where one of the guys said he loathed ponies, Sethisto wouldn't run it so that bronies wouldn't spam the site.

Swag.

I don't think I can be "assertive" enough on that kind of matter, and I don't like think I'd have the guts to go and present an opinion like that. Someone already negged my rant, and people who agreed with me here, so going there would be like walking through a pack of hungry ponies wolves with hay meat in my pockets.

BTW Muumi you have the most interesting test result so far as it is seemingly contradictory; major levels of Rainbow AND Fluttershy? Major levels of Pinkie AND Twilight? ….your personality is like a mixture of water and vinegar…twice

Not that, that’s a bad thing. You just have an interesting organisation of personality traits.

Well, I think I have quite a simple explanation for that.

In case you haven't noticed, I'm an "artist", so I kinda have the right to be eccentric. This also gives me the perfect alibi for watching FiM. I can just say "It's okay. I'm an artist.", pretty much ruining their argument in the process. Besides, I never take myself all that seriously, and others know it too.

I don't think I have one specific personality, besides being quiet and analytical. I can adapt pretty well, and if I can find at least one thing in common with someone, I can get along with them pretty well (excluding narcissistic, and holier than thou type of people). But I do tend to be very shy around new people, until I get that conversation going (or something to drink).

I guess my nerdy nature, and weird knowledge show up as Pinkie's traits, and my moderate desire to show what I can do, shows up in Rainbow's traits. And my lack of interest in physical activities and appearances result in lack of AJ's and Rarity's traits.

And so that I won't go all off topic, here's some artsy pony art that I really like.

Hey people, I've given the Flutterrage / Flutterbitch article a massive rewrite.

Please give me some reviews or suggestions on it.

I'll be having dinner soon, I'll get some work done on Friendship Arsenal this evening.

With that I also bring you a question: Does Pinkie's Party Canon fit in the article?

Just be careful RandomMan. Make sure you eat all your food or Fluttershy won't be…let's go with the word of "unhappy".

took me 10 minutes but i found the pony test let's see who i'm like

Yea Fluttershy FTW
also i think its funny how i'm nothing like rainbow dash XD

On the subject of that poll, the OP of that EqD post has this to say about any objections:

We win! For anyone who was offended by this post, I'd encourage you to take a deep breath. We're not defacing the website or anything, and I'm willing to bet we just earned them a little ad money. It's all in good fun! Relax.

Has someone just downvoted every post on this page? Or am I just getting paranoid?

Your just geting paranoid

Yes phoneix, someone downvoted us all. I've also heard that there's an assasin walking around these threads at night. Don't close your eyes btw for even a second, the ghost of Harry Blindeyes might take the light from your eyes in an attempt to cure himself of his blindness. But this will leave you blind as a result. Also check below your bed, I heard monsters sleep there and they come out at night. Don't stay on your computer for too long either, if you do so Pinkamena Diane Pie will crawl out of the screen and kill you. Also be aware of the stairs, your mother might walk up on them and ask you to help her in the garden.

Someone downvoted one of my posts earlier, but only one of them. So I dunno.

I love maps. This is a great 19th century-style one.

@Ivan: I'll give it a shot if you want, I can't promise that I'll be able to answer fully though.

Throw it out, it can't be that bad.

Thanks but I already contacted someone. Considering I've watched Season 1 and Season 2 up to episode 9 I should know this and I don't. It is that bad :)

- Twilight Sparkle is spelled with one "l".
- Scootaloo isn't Rainbow Dash's little sister.
- That grey derp-eyed character you might have spotted is called Derpy.
- The one sitting on the bench is Lyra.
- Yes, Pinkie Pie is the best pony.
- The evolved form of Twilight Sparkle is called Rapidash.
- Luna and Celestia are sisters yes.
- Pinkamena and the cupcakes are just a fanfic, not canon.
- RandomMan is best brony, hands down.
- Lauren Faust worked on the Powerpuff Girls as well.
- Zecore is a zebra and the only non-pony with a mark that represents a cutie mark.
- Those tattoos on the butt are called Cutie Marks.
- We watch it for the plot.
- We have insomnia as well.
- Rarity hates getting dirty.
- Fluttershy wasn't herself during her encounter with the dragon and in the royal garden.
- This is the same for when Discord had her under his spell.
- Discord is a Draconequus.
- It is unknown what the eye color is of the Dj pony, but the fans have accepted it as red.

Anything missing?

You forgot to say Derpy is now canon.

EDIT: RandomMan? That's not how you spell Berry Punch.

Guys, I'm getting really frustrated at MLP again… Once again, I'm getting annoyed that everyone else sees something in this show that I don't. Sorry to bring this up again, but if there's anything anyone can do to ease my frustrations, that'd be nice.

Yes. Ahem….

In the words of Luna……All shall love Sparkler and despair!!
