This thread seems to be getting even slower than before (if that's possible).

Remember, our official brony community site, created by Ivan here at KYM, is up. If you feel like over-analyzing the show, or have image wars, or post fanfics, or even (gasp) post somewhat NSFW pony content (don't push it), but not all at the same time like on this thread, come on over to ThePonyHub.com

Time for everyone's favorite male pony, big Mac!
Megasweet makes really good humanizations, but thanks to her, I also saw his penis while searching for pics…

Tell us Daniel, how was your week in forum purgatory?

This thread seems to be getting even slower than before (if that’s possible).

Yep, its actually easy to follow now.

I keep telling myself that I need to check by ThePonyHub sooner or later, there is some stuff I would like to post but dividing my time between KYM and all the other forums is proving difficult.

I'm upholding a responsibility on the JFF forums so KYM is still getting most of my attention.

Maybe if you nag me to get over there more…

ThePonyHub will gain my interest once Ivan and the Dev finish putting it together fully. It's kinda half finished right now. Or at least that's what I've been told. WE NEED MOAR UPDATES.

Especially the IRC update. I want to IRC chat with everybody.

I'm not really gonna go on the ponyhub untill its finished i've been lurking but now posting

I also made a new sparta remix:

Ivan has been out of town tor the past week, so we can hopefully expect to see more updates next week. He did say he was working on it, but that he was having problems with the hosting service and couldn't access the administrative account.

And about MAGIC.MOV: This will be interesting. I am looking forward to it.

Dammit people, I made this group months ago.
STOP IGNORING IT.

>Windows Live

What I don't understand is why people feel the need to move everything pony related off this forum and move it to some other site. Isn't the purpose of this thread to contain all pony related content and discussions?

Someone please explain the logic behind this. I'm not saying it's a bad idea entirely, but I perceive it as irrational.

As a follow up to the previous page getting all excited over Discord. Do be aware of the following:

"I've actually done another my little pony, which is coming out."

That is what he said.

Where do you see Discord in that? Did he confirm he'll voice Discord again?

So please be aware of this. I can already smell another shitstorm if it turns out his voice wasn't used for Discord again.

Ha. Windows Live. It's funny. Might as well make a Myspace group.

EDIT: Ninja'd by Ephemeral.

I apologize if I've offended you Cite, I was not aware of that group. I would like to note however that I cannot use Windows Live for various reasons, so IRC is my only option.

We really only use the group for chatting on MSN….

BREAKING: ROYAL WEDDING PREVIEW RELEASED ON EQD

Spoilers, obviously.

12 members seems pretty cool though. Do you actually do anything on MSN? Or is it just there, like ThePonyHub right now?

Verbose, opspe, Algernon, Bob, Sparty, Pyro, Greg and I all use it regularly. Singular and Owens will usually get on and talk after I bug them on Steam, and Staz and Ric are sort of just there.

I forgot i had a Windows live account untill Citation said something now i guess i could have use for it other then to play 1 game i hardly play anymore

Anyone know of the best episode I could use to convert non-believers to bronies? I'm going to attempt to convert my entire university to bronies, and miserably fail at it. But hey, doesn't hurt to try, doesn't it?

Usually I hear "start from the first episode, they'll just keep watching, and watching." One problem though- the first episode was rather painful to watch. I mean, it was good, with the signature FiM plot development, bubbly characters, and over the top cuteness, but the plot seemed so dumbed down. I would have become a brony a week earlier if the first two episodes didn't leave a "meh, it's OK" mark on me.

The first episode that really got me into ponies was "May the Best Pet Win." Maybe it was Tank, maybe it was the pet song which I thought was genius at the time. All I know is, after that episode, I felt like Pinkie after the sonic rainboom.

What I'm asking is, "What is the gateway brony episode?" I doubt other people will be enamoured with "May the Best Pet Win" as much as I was, since I'm known for being a complete turtle/tortoise lover. It has to be one that's pretty easy to understand by non bronies, one that you can just click with right away.

I'm thinking of "Lesson Zero" or "Party of One."

We just use it for general chatting. We talk about pony stuff from time to time, but only if someone brings up the topic. Normally we just talk about whatever comes to mind (kinda like SynchTube, only without the pony videos in the background, and it's running pretty much all the time instead of once a week).

We started the PonyHub forums because it seemed more appropriate for the kinds of discussions we were aiming for. It's difficult to get a good discussion going here, since the thread must be shared between many different people, most of whom won't care for any given topic. Topics can mix together and become confusing, and people may feel like they aren't welcome when everyone starts talking about something they don't care about. With PonyHub, you can post a new topic every time you want to start a new discussion, and you can very easily find topics that interest you while avoiding those that don't. It's also better suited to tl;dr style posts.

The MSN group isn't even a pony thing really. We aren't moving content away from this thread by having it, since it's mostly used for general chatting rather than a dedicated brony discussion tool.

opspe, did you discover the portal to Equestria and didn't tell me about it?

cracks knuckles
Now, you will tell me what I want to know………

Oh god how I remember those from soccer games. Ear shattering but fun to annoy people with.

YES YES!

ATTENTION ALL PONY FANS

The /mlp/ board is joining the 1st biannual 4chan Babby Cup for the right to play in the 4chan Summer cup where we hope to take the title from /k/.

What is the Babby Cup? I'll let the website explain:

The 4chan World Cup is a bi-annual event in which 24 teams representing their boards do AI vs AI battle in Pro Evolution Soccer 2012 for the right to host the 4chan World Cup. The next official Cup competition will be the 2012 4chan Babby Cup during March, which will see a number of new teams competing for places in the next World Cup. The next World Cup is the 2012 4chan Summer Cup, where Winter Cup champions /k/ will be hoping to defend their title.

Let's look at the /mlp/ team for this competition:

I like the Uniforms, who are our players?

My reaction:

Most bronies I know of became addicted around Dragonshy, but that's after they already watched some episodes.

But can't you use your female charms or something? Males are easy when it comes to that. Just say you'll do them "favors" if they watch the entire first season, by the time they're done the brony has completely taken control of them and they'll only ask for a brohoof.

Oh, and for your question about chatting. I get my chats out of the KYM IRC. I'm also not a great fan of Messenger. So perhaps when Ivan got that IRC set up, I might join you guys more often, as it makes scrolling between channels also easier.

Yeah, they'll probably be gay at the end of it and no longer require female favours.

MAINSTREAM SWINE!

I'VE BEEN PLAYING PES SINCE IT WAS CALLED GOALSTORM ON PS1!

LOOK AT MY LEVEL OF HIPSTERNESS!

I remember playing the original FIFA (now called FIFA '94) on SNES, good times.

I know that recent PES games have been poor but PES2011 and PES2012 are just as good as FIFA.

And besides, they're used in the 4chan cups because customization options are off the scale in PES compared to FIFA :P

This is now my new favorite gif animation.

I can't stop looking at it without thinking "PEW PEW PEW PEW PEW!"

@Twins

Well this could just be me, but Luna Eclipsed also seemed to be pretty influential. It's what made me a Brony and for others that seems to be true as well.

But remember that approach is everything, the episode you choose is only a small part of the equation. Please, please don't come off sounding like a Jehovah's Witness preaching ponies instead of gospel, be very careful with that.

Remember that there are some people who already know about MLP but honestly want nothing to do with it. So you have to make sure you don't step on anyone's toes.

Advertise MLP for what it is: just something fun, not a commitment or a label.

Also Randomman has a point that womanly charms are the most potent and effective mind control devices, however using them would be an extreme measure.

@/mlp/'s sports team

I read those names and just thought "Oh 4chan…"

@Chatrooms

I read Riyku's post about having a forgotten Windows Live account lying around…and that's when I realized that I do too.

I've had a Windows Live account sitting unused for years apparently. So I guess I can use MSN after all

….ugh…

I don't understand why I like it either.

@BSoD

You should see some of the other teams.

Look at /d/'s kit:

All of them are here:

LIKE A SIR!

Oh man, the season finale is gonna be great. At first I was only interested in it to find out if Cadence is really an alicorn or just a big fat phony pony but now I'm really looking forward to it.

But first things first. tomorrow, we get to see this guy in action.

My time at banned camp was kinda like this

but I was still in IRC, ponychan, ponyhub, and 4chan /mlp/
I have been busy IRL too so I will not be on over the weekend but I will be back next week

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT!

A lot of spoilers for the season finale have been announced. Please keep them under spoiler tags. I DUN WANNA BE SPOILED! :(

RANDOM PONY IMAGE GO!

I know what to reply to that with!

They are related….

@Ric
I dunno. Blueblood was said to be Celestia's nephew approximately 83 times removed, if I remember correctly. It's probably a bit more complicated than that.
Or something.

>find deviantart for the guy who did my avatar

Actually, I'm not mad. Or even surprised. Just disappointed. Very disappointed.
Dammit, fandom.

Normally I try to stay clear of spoilers, but I couldn't resist this time. Here's hoping I get the button format right:

……….This is damn awesome.
If you guys recognize this movie, I will be impressed.
@Muffins below.
Congradulations. I though that most people didn't know about this movie. Probably because I asked my friends (who know about almost everything, mind you) and they haven't even heard of it.

Fifth element.
