ZephyrBurst

Since this was brought back up. Mac and Cherilee obviously.

I really didn't like this episode that much outside of the thing with Fluttershy at the beginning, Twilight letting Spike go, and the overall moral. The way it all played out just turned me off. While I wasn't looking for fully fleshed out characters, I was hoping for a bit more than the standard 2D cartoon bully that the dragons portrayed. This show is better than that. Though the dragons did play their part for the moral. I think I was mostly disappointed that we didn't learn anything about dragons. At least the didn't blatantly say "All dragons are bad."

After reading Dessa's first post though, I've come to like the episode more. I still don't care for the way it played out or the stereotypical cartoon bully trope that was used.

Pheonix portrayed WRONG WRONG WRONG! They were doing so well with playing mythology straight, then they fall into the "Lets have a SPECIES of Pheonix!" trap... (For those unfamiliar, The Pheonix was a single solitary female bird of flame who died and rose from it's ashes, there were not 2 and they did not reproduce, there was 1 and there would always be 1) Though I admit they were awesome, beautiful, and also cute at the same time.

They've done that for pretty much everything from mythology that's made it into the show. It only makes sense to keep it consistent and have the Phoenix its own species as well.

This is how I feel about this whole situation with people flipping out.

I find the new voice way better. The original was, based on a statement by the VA, a mistake as she was given little information on the character. Just on that alone, I see it as pretty awesome that they would go back and fix it. The new voice matches the character better and just flows better overall. Not only that, now there's zero chance of someone getting offended, at least on the down syndrome approach. They addressed issues and we should appreciate it. They went through the effort to do so. It's not like Ditzy Doo was taken out of the show or anything. As for them taking out the name drop 'Derpy', it was a great choice. It's a word that simply has no place within the show itself. For fandom, whatever, they can do what they want. This is a rather graceful way to handle a mistake, simply addressing it directly by fixing it.

I'd hope this revision is kept in any DVD releases.

Like a bunch of lemmings, they don't even see it.

Well then, welcome back?

This obviously alludes to Fluttershy meeting an untimely fate at the end of season 2. *trollface*

I just like throwing parades.

Oh well that works too.

Welcome to the boards.

I see you in the chat, hope to have you there here and there.

Oh, I checked out your art and wow, it's really good. You definitely have an eye for form.

How does one win this?

There was no contest really. People could just not post about ponies on 4chan, I'm seeing any 'win' behind this. But I also don't visit 4chan.

Meh, don't care for Valentines Day. It's nothing but commercialization now. There's no need to have a special day for couples, every day should be that. It's up to them to set their own special days.

My school always made a list of who was single and published it in the school paper.

I'm pretty sure they shouldn't be allowed to do that. That's not something that should be allowed to be set in public. You should make a complaint about it in favor of people's personal lives and their privacy. Not joking, make a complaint and start a storm if you have to, there's no reason that should be allowed.

Firefly is one of the only 'sci-fi space' shows that I liked.

Zephyr was in Appleoosa for a week, so I can have him here and there possibly.

If they left a note on your car with the literal words "Your cute, call me". Give them a note back saying "You're*".

But really, just ignore, or use the kindness approach. If they're rude or persist in bugging you, the cops threat, like others have said, is a great deterrent.

Back only for a split moment...

Yes, Appliance is my master and I do her bidding... which is usually serving drinks... only to her.

I have shown up in here again!!

And now I make my leave... AGAIN!!

Yeah, there's quite a few friendly people here. And if you're here for roleplay, this is the place to be. I didn't really want to get into it, but even I wound up in it. :3

Come into the irc chat sometime, we're a friendly bunch there... except for the poster above me. She bites. :3

ya Appliance.

My OC is in Stalliongrad for a bit due to the Railroad project, so it's very possible I can get him into a Stalliongrad thread.

I like to design games as a hobby activity. For focus, I don't really need to be in any specific mindset, but I'm almost always listening to music. I have a giant playlist that I have on shuffle most of the time.

Though to help me focus, I have various tools around me, and things to help me, math wise, posted on my wall in front of me. A few conversion tables, a visual chart of degrees/radians, and some other various math related things.

A few weeks ago I got really sick and wasn't able to focus on anything, but I didn't want to just lay in bed and do nothing. Inspired by a short discussion, I thought up an origin story for my OC, Zephyr Burst. I found I was able to at least focus on writing, which outside of the RP, I haven't done in a very long time.

For time frame, it's set before his app here, it's from his birth into his mid-colt years. Since it's an OC here, I brought in a few minor details from the extended world we have on the forums.

Link to story here.

Anyway, it was fun to write. I didn't have any plans on posting it, but a few ponies in the chat poked me enough to do so. Enjoy. :3

It's fine, you didn't piss me off with it. It's just more an annoyance to me.

I used to go by "DarkYoshi" for a few things and actually started here with that name. I frequent the irc and had been going by the name I have now for awhile as it was the same as the OC I eventually submitted to the board. To keep things less confusing, I had my board name changed to what it is now.

It's getting tiring seeing things start with "Am I the only one..." all the time.

No, you're not the only one, please stop making these baseless assumptions as it's agrivating and makes you look like an ass.

Anyway, it might be best to link to an article about what it is, in case someone doesn't know much about it.

But what SirShadowdeath states is pretty much true, like SOPA and PIPA, it's another thing that simply shouldn't pass.

Alrighty, good night App. I shall make my leave from this thread as well. BUT ONE DAY... I shall return. Probably not tomorrow, or even this week, maybe not next week. But one day when I randomly remember to randomly post something random here...
