@BSoD
Count me in on that!
I love all of them and any favoritism by me is measured in very slight degrees.
The fact that we can even have a discussion like this is testament to how well the characters were designed.
They all have positive and negative traits that different people will put different emphasis on based on their own likes and experiences.
I could never say that I 'hate' any of the characters in the show as their flaws only serve to make them more 'real' and relatable.
They are all awesome!

Scootaloo!
Shhh…
I know that, but I'm trying to make a point here!

Now was that little quip really necessary?

Wait, did you A) take that seriously and B) think that 'faggot' is an insult in 2012.

With the rise of 4chan, faggot is used as a compliment mostly, whereas bro is an insult usually, at least on that site. Usually. What with the whole -fag as a suffix deal.

Either way, busting people's balls is part of being on the internet. I get my fair share of shit, and if I don't it's because I'm perfect.

Anyways, I think the whole deal with RD vs. Flutters isn't gaining any progress. It's obvious some people like one better than the other, and everybody else is indifferent. Arguing about it is good fun and all, but kind of futile. So, if you guys want to continue that, go on ahead, but I have a question…

How the fuck does Spiderman find his way into Equestria all the time?

@Solaire
This isn't the BB.com misc forum. Saying faggot will get you negged regardless of if it's a joke or not. I don't care, but others might.

Edit: im with cite on this. You weren't saying "do it phaggot" or calling them Newfags. You were referring to their sexuality.

Anyway's, I guess my dislike of Dash's egotisim stems from dealing with those kinda people IRL Thank you XBL >.>; It's also a bit why I'm hesitant to go into random Pokemon Wi-Fi battles.

Guess having those kinda experiences sours a person on a character.

To be honest, I love when people are arrogant. It makes competition that much more fun.

I don't, it irritates the shit out of me, even moreso when I lose and they rub it in.

As for the Spiderman question of how he gets into Equestria.

@Sketch:

Yeah, I know that feeling. It's part of why I like Pokemon Showdown and TF2. The competitiveness is toned down less, and the latter is immensely team-focused. So, in TF2, what competitive nature you get is for the team, usually, and it makes for some tough matches when both teams are aggressive and smashing against each other constantly.

I can understand not liking Dash for that, because it's part of the reason I kind of dislike her. Not the competitiveness so much as the arrogant, cocky attitude. I'm guilty of doing it as a joke, and I'm sure Dash's use of it is usually light-hearted to some extent, so I can't really hate her for it.

@Dac:

MFW I'm getting berated for calling my friend a faggot:

Fuck's sake, guys, when did I get sent back to elementary school?

@DLL:

Must be wallhacks.

Is it me or has the thread been moving much more lately?

and like Megalolzor comment on this comic, could have Blueblood been a good stallion and that something he wears could be making him such a dick the whole time?

@Randomman:
About the whole Trixie thing, you can't deny that she has PERSONALITY, something that Fluttershy lacks, in your words "The only episodes that save her are the ones where she gets a different personality." that means that her default personality is boring and non existent, when a character is only interesting when it is REVERSED that means that if unreserved it's uninteresting.

Back to Trixe, you can't deny that she was entertaining, her constant bragging and bitchiness is part of the act, it's not easy being a magician when 1/3 of the population can do magic as an everyday action, plus she's a show-person who got heckled, ever seen some retorts the comedians give to hecklers? they make Trixie seem like Fluttershy (in kindness not boring-ness). Ifd you payed attention you'd see that She only humiliated RBD, AJ and Rarity Both RBD and AJ have a very strong personality and can take it (so does Rarity but she just a fan of creating false drama and overreacting) but if she would have done that to Fluttershy (Timid), or Pinkie Pie (basically, brain of a child) that would have been just mean, but the rules are simple you see:
Got heckled? Shoot them down.

As for the lying thing: do you know that David Copperfield claims he found The Fountain of Youth? Yeah…

It's all part of the job you see, even if overdone, getting banished and losing all your personal possessions does not seem like a fair Karma to me.

Also you mentioned EqD/Seth as many times as you mentioned Trixie in that rant, it did sort of becomes his avatar (kinda like Molestia and JJ or Surprise and Willdrawforfood), yes he is overdoing it, no doubt about that, but I do doubt that he was the sole reason of her fame. Many people latched on to her entertaining appearance before Seth blew this WAY out of proportion.

True, Trixie was already popular before the whole Seth thing. But I still blame him for constantly fuelling it. Her original popularity was ok, just around the same levels as other one-episode characters, maybe a bit more, but people just liked the character, no worries. But after Seth started his forcing, it really took off to unfair proportions.

Which is more of a personal thing actually. When something gets recognised as popular or quality, I want it to be fair and see legit reasons for it, regardless if those reasons match with my own opinion. Trixie's explosion in popularity is far from fair. Which results in me getting a grudge towards her. I don't know how close you've been following the rest of the forum lately, but if so you should know how much I hate self-acclaimed "oldfags".

Trixie has personality, of course she does. But her personality is simply the bitching bragging type. I don't like Gilda and Blueblood either, as they have the same issues. So it doesn't matter here if she has personality or not, I just don't like her personality.

As for Fluttershy, it's her general personality that's boring. The changes in personality (Flutterrage, Flutterbitch) always last for only one episode. So yeah, besides that, she's boring.

But going back to the shyness. As I said before, it matches to the whole "moe" personality found in anime. Moe characters have always been very popular. If you've been following Katawa Shoujo a bit when it was popular, the character Hanako was without doubt the most popular of them all. Hanako is a perfect example of "moe". But I never liked the character, way too plain and boring. But their shyness and other stuff, people feel attracted towards it. It's common. So honestly, I'm not suprised Fluttershy is popular. But it's simply not the type of personality I'd like.

@soliare
I don't really care, I'm just warning you that others might.

@Dan
I grew up with friends and cousins that were extremely competitive. We would talk shit and give shit to the losers. That's just how I grew up so it really doesn't bother me much. I actually hate competing with people who aren't serious. It ruins the fun for me.

Luckily, unlike Popper and Pyro, I’m not a total faggot, so I’m not confused.

Oh yeah?

That's right, I have no issue over me liking this whatsoever anymore. Deal with it.

Eeeeeheehee! I made that!

Thanks for bringing it here, Thor! I posted on SPUF because I legitimately thought it'd be enjoyed… Which it sorta was! The comments in the thread were overwhelming positive! The ratings took a tanking from it, though.

I posted it on GameFAQs in desperation, after getting a response from Equestria Daily saying it wouldn't make it on because it was "more just a song about TF2", even after seeing the "Fire! Fire! Fire!" Pyro-based Smile parody make it on. D: I was hoping for a similar reaction to SPUF, but sheesh. GameFAQs is kinda filled with children, isn't it?

Did somepony say "worst pony" ?

Pic related. It's the pony with no unique character traits, other than her obnoxious stubbornness. If this one were to leave the mane 6 not a single shit would be given, because she contributes nothing unique or useful to the cast.

Because 60's spiderman is a super-memetic television show just like MLP:FIM, making crossover fan edits an expected occurence.

Oh shit son. Don't you dare diss AJ. She has her flaws, but she's still a great pony nonetheless. I still say that everypony is best pony.

The Great and Powerful Trixie

Did I just hear someone say best pony? I think I did. Since many of you seem to be ignorant as to what makes The Great and Powerful Trixie the indisputable best pony, I'll take it upon myself to inform you why you're all wrong.

1. She's great.

2. She's Powerful.

3. She's a wizard.

4. In the age of NO U and U MAD, she takes the art of trolling to a level that's been thought long dead. She baits them in with gloating. But then, she lets them show off. Then she one-ups them with either her greatness or her power. Even if her actions don't use the same skills and are unable to be truly compared, she utilizes her flashy magic to win over the crowd anyway.

5. I PUT ON MY CAPE AND WIZARD HAT! Seriously, bitch got more style than Rarity. Her wizarding robes are level 89 conjurers robes. See anypony else wearing them? No? It's because they're all a bunch of scrubs. The only one higher than level 37 is Twilight, and we all know she's a damn hacker.

6. Pinecones are a part of this complete balanced breakfast.

7. Did I mention she's a wizard? God damn, I love wizards. Like Doctor Strange. OBSERVE!

Best superhero:

Best pony:

8. This gif is so good, it can break the three image limit rule.

9. Wizards

10. Sexiest Pony. Hands down.

Pic related. It's so sexy, I punched my junk 'til I bled semen.

I have to go to work now, so I'll unfortunately be unable to see your responses praising my brilliant and totally undeniable points as to why the best pony is best. But when I get back, I expect each and every one of you to write an essay explaining just why you were so wrong, and how Trixie is most certainly the best. In no less than 700 words. For extra credit, post more Trixie pictures so I won't have to when I get back. But I will most likely post more anyway.

Hey guys…

Let's discuss Rule 34.

In the future, I think if you want the discussion of R34 to end don't enter the thread with a post saying "Oh god, I leave you guys for a couple of days and you're talking about Rule 34!?" because that in general tends to beat a dead horse prolong the topic.


@Fluttershy being uninteresting:

I HATE YOU ALL WHY DO NICE GUYS LIKE ME ALWAYS HAVE TO FINISH LAST?! :(

@algeron

Ok, everyone. It's true what algeron says. I am hiding something. For years I've tried to hide it from the world because I thought I might be rejected. I neve told my parents because it wasn't sure how they might react. I've tried my best to cover it up from my friends because they might stop hanging out with me. Ugh, the truth is that I have an anaconda in my pants. Yep, sad but true.
By the by, who plays to lose? Fuck you science!

Sad to say, but I could see that being the results of her losing all of her possessions after the events of Boast Busters, or becoming a stripper as well.

And yeah, her expression in that picture clearly says it all.

@DeadParrot: Yes, I knew about that, that's why I brought it up actually.

I wanna see Trixie explain to the CMC how she got her cutie mark, as well as Derpy, Lyra, Vinyl, Octavia, and "Time Turner" (Doctor Whooves). Someone make a comic or animation of these, it'd seem pretty interesting.

Special pony? She's dumb, she can't defend herself, and she doesn't even represent her element properly. Did I mention that her special talent is kicking trees? Her big brother does that better, and any pony that has hind legs can do that. She is just a boring IRL horse in a show about interesting, funny ponies.

Fair points, all because they didn't characterize her enough. How many episodes did she get again? I forget, but I doubt it was that many.

Also, this.

Are we discussing best pony? Shit guys, as I've already establised multiple times, it's Rainbow Dash. No, that's not an opinion. There is some fairly complex math involved, but there's actually a proof that shows Rainbow Dash is objectively the best pony.

@Deadparrot

As I've discussed with you already Deadparrot, that proof only works in a world without Rainbow Dash. Scootaloo being best pony only works in a universe where Scooaloo is only pony (BUUURNED)

Rainbow Dash on the other hand, is the best possible pony, that is she is the best pony in all possible universes. This is clearly laid out in Einstein's theory of the relativety of all things awesome to Rainbow Dash. The closer you get to Rainbow Dash in awesome, the amount of radicalness needed to approach her increases infinitely.

Luna got 1 episode for herself and she's way more interesting than Applejack. Hasbro should just have mercy on her and do to her what they did to Minty with the core 7 and replace her with Cheerilee.

Damn you guys, i just can't keep up with the pony train anymore. Exams are starting in 2 weeks, so i have to cut ponytime a bit. And as i didn't learn anything during the semester, i am starting to get nervous now:

Everytime i check this thread now at least three new pages have emerged. And as soon as i want to reply to something, the topic has been buried pages ago.

@Trixie
I don't get all the Trixie obsession, but perhaps this is due to my late pony blooming. Based on the show, i would just say, that she was a typical MacGuffin character. She appeared only to create tension and honestly i can't see her coming back.

Guys, stop taking Robert seriously and responding.

@Best pony:

That's a really weird way to spell Yosemite Sam Princess Celestia. Maybe you guys should see a professional about your dyslexia.

@Whitishcollar:

Well, real life comes before pon- gets shot

@Trixie:

I think Seth actually said that Twilight is his favorite pony, but he just said it was Trixie for so long as a running joke. To be honest, I don't really care that much for Seth, though EqD does have some good moderators and admins. I really think it just had a massive stroke of luck, paired with being the early bird, to become so huge.
