Well since we're all talking about MLP.

I've seen all episodes of MLP because no one would shut the hell up about it, and I love cartoons. It's well animated (Especially considering it's apparently made with Macromedia Flash), interesting characters and good writing. I wouldn't call myself a brony and watch it religiously, every brony I have seen has been bringing it up on unrelated topics. Let's say there's a video i'm watching about Breaking Bad, and someone in the comments has a profile picture with a picture of a pony, suddenly there's 6 or 7 people suddenly talking about it and you can't find any of the related comments without scrolling down. Then you have the ones that ASK for a flame war. I remember E-Nomine: Mitternacht, a song I felt like listening to a year or two ago after discovering it 6 or 7 years ago. I returned to it and all I found was flame wars about ponies, so I left a warning comment and what do you know? It was top comment on it for a full year, and it also got a lot of bronies hating on me for no reason. Sure, I got a lot of thank you comments but the negatives ones kept on rolling in.

I don't mind it brought up here as it is in context, it could be a theme song, although I suppose already we're flooding in the MLP comments, which probably makes me look like a hypocrite, but I felt I should share my opinions, and also why my character (Me) dislikes bronys. I don't mind bronies who don't force and push it on people and don't spam unrelated topics and basically act as if they want flare wars to happen. I also have a few brony friends. They joke about it sometimes but mostly keep quiet when it's not related to the topic at hand, of course, in there personnel time they go on there brony sites and forums which I have no problem with, because it's RELATED. It's really annoying when i'm looking up something about a Graphics Card and I click on a thread only to find it full of brony comments and pictures.

TL;DR: The show is good, the fandom can be extremely annoying.

EDIT: I'm not bringing up the fanart for... well, uh... obvious reasons... *shudder*

Every fandom has its fair share of horrific fanart.

Erk: Stupid lack of time... I'm trying to get a post out ASAP, but it might not actually come until tomorrow. I'm sorry D:

Oh, something I just noticed: Kaga, Rose is already in the next room (the ktichen).

I know. GM was pretty much just talking to Leon at that point.

Fair enough. Just for the record, I was mostly talking about this part. (Lifted from the IC thread)
Kaga said ” Godmodder answered nonchalantly, crawling out from under the table the rest of the way, swinging his feet around and sitting on the cafeteria bench, facing the two roleplayers as he rested his elbows on the table behind him


Of course, it's just a throwaway bit, and it can easily work if Rose left somewhere during the period that GM used to crawl out from under the table, or somewhere during his long and somewhat confusing rant. It just caught my attention, that's all.

A single bump hardly prevents a vicious circle, but let's see how it goes this time.

Oi, stop overreacting.

Things are probably a little slow right now cuz it's the weekend, but things'll speed up.

On a semi-related note, I plan on working on a post for GMod today. I'll have it up by tomorrow at the latest, but hopefully sooner.

I can't wait to put the full force behind my plot. I have some very neat things for my character planned.

Yeah, see, I've been meaning to ask you about that...

Will this side-plot of yours involve ANY other characters? At all? I believe it was you who first asked about whether I'd allow player-based side-plots, and I said ok because I assumed it would be one that other players could get involved with, but so far every tidbit of that you've added, there's been absolutely no way for any other players to get involved. I don't think anyone else even knows what's going on, there. I know I don't. And, well, side-plots are one thing, but just writing a story about your own character that no one else can add to, resulting in you basically roleplaying with yourself, really isn't ok. I'm all for thickening the plot, but that's really only beneficial if it thickens the plot for everyone.

Bottom line is, if you want to continue the idea, please find a way to get other players involved. :/

The tidbits right now are more of a set-up. In fact, that last one is to involve the Godmodder in some way. Once Bellua is freed, that's when everyone else becomes involved, as he will pose a very large threat to the entire group as a whole, as for the silhouette, the group will have influence in that as well, but it's more so to Euclid's benefit so that he can stand a rough chance against the Godmodder and be better able to help the group once that battle comes into play. If you want more details as to what's really going, feel free to PM me - I can explain everything in its entirety without giving anything else away to the others.
