I'M A PONY

The first episode of second season is called "Cannibal Horse", the second is called "Equestrian Psycho" and the third is called "splatterhorse"...Create a kid~friendly plot without violence or bad words with a report of friendship

Dear /oat/...

It's been almost three weeks since the season finale and it seems that, without a new pony episode every week, a lot of us have forgotten, or have at least put aside, the fundamental concepts that we hold dear here at Ponychan. More and more, I'm seeing a drift away from that pony message. /Oat/ is forgetting how to love; we're forgetting how to care for others.

It's a bold accusation, and it's one that should not be made without some evidence, I think. Just in this past hour, Ponychan enjoyed a little "invisible fiasco." The Equestria Girls song is not quite so popular, it seems, with everypony and for some, it's annoying enough to spur them to leave. I love the song, but that doesn't mean somepony that doesn't like it should be forced to hear it or, if they are against it as a concept, to even see it on the frontpage. "Shouldn't the other ponies be more tolerant of the song though?" Perhaps, but what I witnessed tonight is far more disturbing than that point.

Tonight, I saw ponies threatening to leave over something they didn't like and few, if any, ponies went out of their way to understand them. Are we not the most loving place on the internet? Then perhaps it's time we remember that and started acting like it again. I call this an "invisible fiasco" because I've personally talked to a number of ponies who are upset to the point of leaving, not so much at the fact that there is a song they don't like on the frontpage, but rather that their fellow ponies were so quick to disregard them; so unwilling to show them any love or bother with understanding them. And it hasn't just been tonight either. This, I think, is the the proverbial "straw that broke the camel's back." Over the past week or two, I've spoken privately with heartbroken pony after heartbroken pony over the sudden lack of understanding and love their fellow ponies have shown them. The tell me "this used to be the most understanding place on the internet? What has happened to it?" And I can't give them an answer.

Mods, this little pa…

In the brief time that I've been here on ponychan, I've witnessed miracles. To coin a phrase, even if it hasn't made the lame walk and the blind see, it's made the shy talk and the bitter squee.

It strikes me that a lot of the people here are from my generation, the "internet generation", and are well acquainted with bitterness, shyness and friendlessness. In the past, some of us have flamed, some of us have lurked silently, but most of use have come to the internet seeking distraction and comfort, never really hoping for actual joy, but wishing deep in the back of our minds that there was a better way. And then ponies came along. It didn't have to be ponies, but they were the right catalyst at the right time, and here we are.

I have in my own time been about as cynical as they come. I've gotten worse at trusting people as the years have gone by. I've seen movements on the internet and in real life that have brought people passion and joy for a while, but they always get poisoned by selfishness and people who take themselves too seriously. When the cynic in me sees a post on here that seems sappy, or painfully honest, or controversial, I sit back and wait for the parasprites to show up... and they almost never do. This is what I call a miracle. I don't fully understand what's happening yet, but I think it's worth reflecting on.

Those of us who can relate to what I'm saying are in the process of changing ourselves, the internet, and the world, in the only way things like that ever really change for the better - by looking at the "small" picture, taking life a day at a time, and thinking of others. Our little revolution is pretty much the easiest revolution ever, because it doesn't require us to do anything we aren't already doing. We're like scientists, discovering joy and friendship as if for the first time, and I encourage you all to be bold, experiment, and learn everything you can about it!

Friendship really is about as close to magic as we come. The combination of fun, trust, compassion, generosity, and all the other loving things that go with it - they ar…

Gather round, Ponychanners! I'm going to tell you a story!

It’s February 8th, and Ponychan has been in existence for exactly one year! So, with that being said, it is now time for me to tell you a little story, also known as “the most complete Ponychan history I’ve ever tried to write or even seen someone try to write.” It’s not done yet, but I’m trying to make it as in-depth and all-inclusive as possible! So far, it’s got almost 3000 words! Now then, let me begin ruining /arch/ with some intense textwalling.

Once upon a time, in the magical land of 4chan...

Just wanted to post this before I slept:

I've realized how much this series and community has forever embedded themselves in not only my memory, but in my heart as well.

To everypony here; I love you all, I will never forget you. I will never forget this show, I will never forget the memories I obtained, I will never forget the morals I learned, I will never forget the hard work everypony gives out everyday, I will never forget you; Ponychan, My little pony, Everypony.

Even if this thread doesn't live long. [One's like these don't. Trust me. I've seen it many times.]


>SERIOUSLY, I LOVE YOU.

It has improved not only me as a person, but others around me as well. My condolences go out to the Makers of the show, and the community that makes everything 20% cooler. …

Sorry for the inconsistency I have with making this thread. Someone else can do it next season. Also, I know this will make five stickies, so this can be taken down after today.

Please keep discussion and naming of background ponies, as well as Derpy sightings in Episode 22 in this thread. Don't forget to use spoiler tags for any discussion of the ponies in the preview clip before the episode airs, but afterwords feel free to post without them.

Do you always have really funny, witty things to add to threads, but whenever you do the thread dies completely unexpectedly?

Well then this is the thread for you. Calling all thread killers. this is our thread in which we reply to EVERYPONY. lets help those infamous thread killers feel like they're popular and part of something.

I just locked myself out of my house by accident, housemate not home, had to ask some dude that was passing by to give me a push up the fence, I'm wearing a long skirt, no underwear *facehoof* had to break a window once inside the property. most embarrassing day in the year so far.

Post your Derpy moments.

Let us discuss fillies in a sophisticated manner, such as which filly is your favourite and ZOMG FLUTERSHY'S LEGS



(CAN YOU HANDLE THE CUTENESS?)

sorry, but i had to take off the auto play.

Hi /oat/!

I'd like to know, from each one of you, a piece of your life that will always be there.
Although many of you lurk, I'd like even just a short answer from you. I've already gotten the mods to answer, so you should too!

From your childhood, there's always been that one dream you've had. The one that even when somepony mentions now, you get a bit of butterflies in you belly, and you sometimes feel down about it.

So, do you still have your childhood dreams in the forefront of their brain?
And even if you don't, what were they?

After so many years I still want to visit space. Not even a space core joke, it just seems like such a beautiful, tranquil, vast emptiness that calls.

When posters you like, don't like you.

>I'd like to address my opinion on the trixie episode, as i saw it again recently.

As i saw it, the whole Trixie thing was kind of a misunderstanding. Trixie was never a showoff.

She arrives at this town, promoting her magic show. She says that she's going to perform magic tricks never seen by pony eyes. Of course this was to keep the audience in a mood, as this is a magic show. She wasn't going to say "Um.. i'm going to do some magic i hope you like it".

The main six then start saying that one shouldn't be saying that one is best than the other and that you shouldn't be a showoff when:

1)She isn't being a showoff, she's just using her talents for a purpose (magic shows)
2)She hasn't said that she's better than other ponies.

Then RD starts to boo her and the whole thing starts. Apparently the whole cast got butthurt, because, as you see, the other ponies always seem amused and happy by the show. …
