It is funny, the fear that I smell. The fact that HoT is taking this serious, that he has worked hard on something. HoT is if anything loyal to his friends. Your fear is palpable. If he through hard work can do this, then you truly do have something to fear here. So cry away. Keep the whining coming. No one truly knows how it will turn out, but with so many hidden and non-hidden Bronies in every alliance you should be afraid.

I myself do not understand it, but I don't need to, to support a friend. Apparently something many of you have forgotten.

I think you're confusing the smell of fear with the smell of profound loathing. The fact that this serious, hard-worked-upon thing is THIS... His loyalty is not an issue. We're not questioning that TPF will support them when the inevitable beatings rain down upon the ponies. We haven't forgotten how to support friends.

We just make damn sure our friends aren't... THIS.

[color="#0000FF"]He was one of ours, unfortunately. He started off normal enough, but over the last few months it was nothing but pony pictures from him. He has a nice enough nation, but honestly I cannot say I'll miss the ponies at all. I'm actually a bit relieved that we'll not be seeing anymore of those from him on our boards.

And also, please do not mistake him for a typical Sith. Or for one of us at all.[/color]

What BG was a hero of the Sith. I remember because we gave him a medal or something.

The only thing I fear for is society. Also, humanity.

Since everyones moved past the first phase and into the "I'm serious, what the hell is ponies?" Phase I've decided to educate you. Since that gets us into the 'I unironically hate you and will actively seek your death." Phase as soon as possible. It's the confusion and weirdness of this meme that feeds HeroofTime and feeds his need for attention. Therefore I will do my best to rob him of as much of as I can.

For those who don't care, but would like to pass the time whilst on the toilet, I offer this educational nugget.

For the TL;DR crowd, here's more TL;DR

MLP is a show that appeared on the Hub (Hasbro's toy based TV outlet) last year.

Basically 4chan picked up on it, grew a fanbase, caused drama, and got banned from some websites. Soon after ponyfan created websites popped up. 4chan, Goons, and other parties have created websites purely for pony related things. This severe a reaction to a meme isn't common. In fact it's one of the most stubborn and user involved memes I've seen in 17 years on the internet. To make matter worse, (or better) a second season is planed for Q1 2012, and the shows creators have been very responsive to the community. Attention hogs like internet trolls love this and the interest level in this show remains high and will stay high in the months to come.

[u]A few things to consider[/u]
MLP only based website (Equestria Daily) has pulled in 27 MILLION hits in only a few months.
There has been no new MLP episodes in over 12 weeks. However, users still pump out content despite lack of new material.
Pony related trolling has the benefit of being double edged. It can affects those who hate it and people whom are die hard fans. Depending on the content used. (Works on GOONS too.)


That all said, HeroOfTime is the worst person to put forth a AA themed like this. Since the Pony ideal is "kill them with Kindness" every lengthy, whiny diatribe he launches into till tarnish the image of his entire AA.

Actually if he goes down this path and never, ever whines or complains ever again... Humm...

Might be worth it after all!

Thank you for the informative post, Furril. Now it all make sense.

To all newcomers from Equestria, welcome.

This is the gayest announcement I've ever read. Good luck.

OOC: As a gay person IRL, I'm offended by being associated with this.

IC: What an awful theme, and it shall be safe to bet you will be just as unsuccessful with this bull@#$% excuse of an alliance.

Friends don't let friends create pony alliances.

And yes, he may be loyal etc etc, but this is a realm where politics matters. Do you really want TPF associated with this?

Yes.

I tend to believe in quality over quantity. I'd rather have a couple of intelligent new people join than hundreds of these...[i]things[/i]. I'd rather not be awash in a sea of pony pictures every time I venture here.

It's such a pleasure to see that we're only a few days old as an alliance, and already we have everypony talking about us! It can only keep on going up from here, I'll warrant. Remember you're all very welcome to drop by Sugarcube Cornerton for cupcakes at any time.

It's not such a pleasure when about 90% of your attention is from people wanting to see you rolled.

I genuinely apologise for creating such a parallel. But this is... this is something else.
