Hardly anything methinks as the franchise would never have the attention it does now

Another girls toy line and cartoon to advertise it. The only real reason we know the G3.5 series was SO bad is BECAUSE we have Gen 4 to compare to.

No G3/3.5 sucks even from a G1 or even pony tales perspective

Unicorn Magic to me is perhaps the best form of magic due to the fact that it's not all encompassing nor overpowerful.

In fact the only one who seems even remotely overpowered is Twilight but that might go down to her element being Magic.

Its kind of funny that this has been associated with trolling, I am sure he appreciated the irony.

I cant say much about the guy but his influence cannot be measured to be sure

I'l got soon a new computer!

Asus V6-P8H61ELX Barebone PC Intel Core i3-2105 3.1Ghz Box Socket 1155 G.Skill Ripjaws DDR3 1333 PC3-10666 4GB 2x2GB CL9

I'm not even a casual gamer, so gaming specs aren't my target, I heard good opinions about that ASUS barebone model, an for, like the price of a mobo, I got the same mobo with a compatible PSU and assembled in a midi box... (I only assembled a mobo once, and most likely burn it, was a 486 and never worked fine) Sadly the cpu is just a i3, but it incorporates a very decent gpu... hey, the most in games I run is Gmod, and it would run fine...

If you are not that much of a gamer, maybe you should dual boot Linux.

Its not as bad as people say it is.

Well kind of figured that season 3 would have a full season

Here are my specs:

OS's:

Windows 7 64bit Professional

Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin 32 Bit

Hardware (my own build):

1 In Win griffin yellow case

1 Cooler Master Silent Pro M600 PSU

1 Lite on iHAS-324-98B DVD burner

1 ASUS M4A785TD-M EVO motherboard with a onboard ATI Radeon HD 4200 graphics card

2 2GB Kingston Hyper X Blu memory sticks

1 HP dvd1260 DVD burner

1 AMD Phenom II Hex core processor

1 1TB WD caviar green hard drive I use as my primary drive

1 640GB WD caviar green hard drive I use for storage (its my older drive but it still works so why junk it?)

1 Vizio Television I use as the monitor

1 xbox 360 gamepad I use for console emulation/general platform gaming

1 Logitech K520 keyboard

1 Logitech M520 wireless mouse

1 Blue Yeti Microphone

And a partridge in a pear treeeee!

Well I am a virgo, that explains a bit actually

Or just point them here, we can say a few words like we did when another member had issues with parents.

Admittedly I have written a lot of furry (as in an anthro animal) related fanfics but I myself am not a furry.

My love of anthro animals comes from classic cartoons like Bugs Bunny or Mickey Mouse rather then wanting to be like them (though I did have a dream where I was a Bugs Bunny like rabbit, nothing sexual mind you just having a wild imagination as a kid)

The Multiverse theory is sound. And it gives me hope. Because, not only is there at least one in the infinite span of universes with Ponies, there is one where-in Ponies have Multiverse theory, one where Ponies have the ability to travel between universes, one where we have the ability, and finally, one where two universes much like Ponies and much like ours, have met and coexisted in peace and harmony.

I always liked the idea of other worlds and parallel universes being the Sci Fi nut I am

Equestria seems like a nightmarish place when you look at it, sure the pretty colors are nice but its really a cover for a crazy and insane messed up universe.

a tiny bit of off-topic doesn't murder the world ya'know, or was that not what you meant?

and I think the guy that made the video is asking to be made fun off ;D

Especially when the song featured in the vid says "If you dont have anything nice to say dont say (censored) at all"

IRONY!

4kids doesnt really exist anymore

I have a link to SFDebris positive review in my sig, he also has it on his non Brony website

Nah nothing special, though I had to sacrifice a goat

Screw that noise, I am a fighter i will take anything on and I am not afraid to die.

I shall die like a warrior, qapla!

So what got you into the fandom to begin with and what kept you along for the ride? Do you think it's changed you personally in any way or inspired you try any new things (or expose you to them) that you didn't see yourself doing a year ago?

Well what got me into this is thatguywiththeglasses.com and the forums over there, usually we have the most opinionated and critical people in the world over there who look at movies, TV, Music, books, games, etc and are often not too kind about it.

This is why the pony thread over there intrigued me, it was about 9 pages long at the time and usually if a topic has that many pages its either really good or really bad.

I thought they were making fun of it, making jokes at its expense, you know things people normally are supposed to do when the name "My Little Pony" comes up.

But no, most of them if not all of them who were posting liked it, I could not figure out why so I had to investigate farther.

Here are my pre Brony thoughts:

I think I must have watched about three episodes or so at that point

Later I had this to say:

It was the next day and the whole brony thing was starting to kick in, by then I watched a good portion of the first season and finished on the next day and here is what I said:

(spoilered for a not so nice word for these G rated forums)

Though here is a more age appropriate version of what I said above:

Well I finally got through the first season, and...

I think the show got to me too, I mean they really turned something awful and made it good instead of what usually happens in the case of making something good into something awful or turning something awful and making it even more awful.

Its actually better then it should be, sure I can tell a mile away the target audience and what the show is supposed to be for, but geez how in the hay did something associated with crap (as the original and little pony tales sucked) turn into something that is actually pretty decent.

What in the fudge is wrong with this picture?

Sure the series has its flaws but all shows do, and there were one or two episodes i did not care for but still its overall a decent series, very harmless overall and decently written.

for those who are underage but curious

Those bags are air tight. Is pony still alive?

I was going to bring that up, not to mention how in the heck it got into such a small bag, unless the bag is dimensionally transcendental

Ooh wee ooh!

Today is my one year anniversary of becoming a Brony, for me this is kinds of a big deal as this is one of the most interesting, diverse and fun groups I have ever been a part of.

Now granted this is not my anniversary here at these forums but hey whatever.

I really like this community, so many people with so many interests gathered as one.

Its ironic that when I first heard of FiM I honestly didnt think it could be any good like the lot of us did but if its one thing this show taught me is that there are lot of unexpected surprises out there.

To this community I can only say keep up the good work and even when this show is dead and gone its the community that makes me feel so good in the end.

I have not felt this good about a fandom since my days as a Trekkie, I still sort of am a Trekkie but its died down over time.

I am sure the same will be for this but hey as we get older tastes change.

But I will look back at this community as something fun and exciting and bringing some fun back into my life.

Thanks everypony!

a lot of people, my biggest are Paleosteno, Saberspark and Dr Ashens

Interesting to have a non fan around, but dont wory most of us are actually pretty civil.

By the way Tales I did check out some of your recommendations earlier on as I had nothing better to do at the time and well... I still dont like the My Little Pony Tales series, sorry but being honest here.

Granted they were better episodes then the ones I saw but its still not my cup of tea.

Its still a little too sugary for me in some places and I still dont care much for the characters or the setting, its just so wrong for me.

Yes, you! I was alluding that while you have a lot of thoughts regarding early pony, they felt unfocused and unrelated, so I had trouble understanding your main point.

Shadow: That G1 AJ still haunts my dreams.

My point was a general commentary nothing more, I wasn't trying to give an all out commentary but give my basic feelings and thoughts on each of the Pony gens before FiM

I gathered all the past episodes (from before G3) into a topic: High Quality Original MLP Episodes.

I recommend And the Winner is... and Sister of the Bride, for starters. The first one seems to have inspired The Ticket Master, and the second may have had some influence over the season 2 finale. Other than that... hmm... The Battle of the Bands, Roll around the Clocks, and uh... Up, up and Away.

I will check them out, thanks.

Dont worry i wont let my past experience bias me, I am trying to give it a fair shot and if I still dont like it I will let you know.

But that goes down to tastes in the end.
