The name should be good. I searched for it and came up with nothing.

OMC I love you! It's been so long since I've seen a new user who understood the concept of Multiquote! Welcome to Canterlot! Hope you enjoy it here!

What Rosie said! Welcome! For the record, I joined this community to be part of the community. I didn't start Roleplaying until MUCH later. Hope you enjoy it here! Edit: Curious... Kyoshi... Avatar Kyoshi?

All you need to do is click "Edit" on the original post. Then click "Use Full Editor" after that. You should be able to change the title and tags there.

OK that is much easier than KVIrc.... OK, so when you open mIRC, the mIRC options window should open up. (if not please open it, under the drop down menu "Tools") When you have that window open, it should already be set to "Connect" Right under "Connect" is a selection called "Servers." You need to click that. That should bring you to the Server selection and creation area. You need to click the Add button. That should open a pop-up titled "Add Server" Please input the following fields: Description: Naughty Gazelle IRC Server: irc.naughtygazelle.com Ports: 6667 Group: Password: (Don't put anything into group or password) Then click "Add" It should be already highlighted after you do that. If not, please find it in the list, and then click it, and hit select. Clicking select should automatically bring you to the "Connect" tab. Here you need to put in your nickname (Butterpancake) and an alternate (try to make a name that is similar to your original name (like: Butterpancake-) After that, click "Connect" That should open up a server window. In the server window please type "/join #canterlot" (without the quotes and the hashtag is very important) And then you're done! I know that seems like a lot, but this is the ONLY time you need to do all those steps. The only step you need to do after everything is set up is that last one, which is joining the channel. Good luck.

Which client did you install? The instructions are slightly different for each...

After you download, you need to set up the server When you set up the server, you can enter the channel, #canterlot. There are tutorials on how to do this with both. If you really need help and Google isn't being of any help (because I think there are youtube videos that may make the learning curve easier) I can send you step by step instructions.

The two most popular are http://www.kvirc.net/ and http://www.mirc.com/

You put it into the URL field is what... it isn't an http. It is an IRC server location. You need an IRC client [either desktop or web based] to go to it. If you have any questions please let us know

I'm going to be out from August 9-12th.

If you are working from your ipod, it might be wise to download a IRC client. The server is irc.naughtygazelle.com port number 6667 and channel is #canterlot

Did I mention that Sunset Shimmer was only in Celestia's tutelage for a short time? Even assuming that Celestia taught her, which is a big assumption considering that she never actually taught Twilight about the Elements but rather allowed her to learn about them herself (And Sunset Shimmer even suggests when she is telling Twilight about the EoH that Celestia never taught her but she figured it out for herself, as a means to show Twilight how much more brilliant and a better student she was than Twilight), it doesn't explain anything else in regards to her knowledge. Because again, the elements match the cutie marks of the wielders.

*tries to imagine* Can gazelles lick their own back? And I did once! Though it was when my shoulder was disjointed and thus the act was rather painful.

You should really read the article... Hasbro not only knows about it, but approved it. Had they not the patch wouldn't exist.

Yes, many people would apply, but only one would succeed. If Discord was playable we'd hold a cast vote. Best application wins. However, Bellosh explained quite well why it isn't allowed.

Welcome to Canterlot!

OK, I can't convince you of the other ones. Though I still consider them to be major lapses in logic and thus plotholes (OK the email text thing was admittedly a stretch) However... Let's dance with the Sunset Shimmer knowledge, because that is the biggest plothole. Here is what we know from the show: The EoH disappeared for 1000 years, no one knew the status of them or what they would look like when they reactivated again (since they match the CM's) Twilight became Celestia's pupil when just a filly Twilight didn't reactivate the EoH until she was a full grown mare and sent to Ponyville for the summer sun celebration The elements, when not in use, were held either 1) in a vault that only Celestia (and presumably Twilight post Discord, other than Discord himself of course) can open or 2) in Ponyville with Twilight and Co. and the portal by that point was in the Crystal empire, too far to logically make the trip unnoticed Here is what we know from the movie: Sunset Shimmer became Celestia's Pupil BEFORE Twilight Sunset Shimmer left her tutelage BEFORE Twilight became Celestia's pupil ("after I left, it is pathetic that you were all she could find to replace me" or something along those lines) -- Ergo she already left to the other world by that point, and was thus a filly at the time (and thus couldn't know what the EoH looked like to even make the switch) Celestia suggested also that she NEVER came back through either to seek help. (And before you suggest that she could have left when she was a mare, Celestia said she left to find her own path after she left her tutelage and had hoped that she would one day come back to her for guidance, suggesting that she used the portal as a filly and didn't return at any point after that) Sunset Shimmer, Celestia and Luna apparently knew that the EoH held great power in alternate universe, they outright told Twilight this, hence making her mission to get it back all the mroe pressing. However it is unknown if Celestia told Sunset Shimmer (this is possible) -- though, given what we know from the show... HOW WOULD ANY OF THEM KNOW? The EoH were lost for 1000 years! So... Yeah... her knowledge... HUGE plot hole when you consider everything. There is just simply no way she could know everything like she did.

But how do you lick the chocolate of your own back? Or is that left up to the person giving the rubs?

Please be aware that clean English must be spoken at all times. We don't allow other languages to be spoken on the site. Thanks! Also welcome to Canterlot! Hope you have a good time here!

She told Spike the reason, which made sense without the crown only. Again, Celestia or Luna have seen the crown before, ergo, they would know it was the real one pretty easily. They barely looked alike. Yes, but they didn't even hear of anything. Holding grudges aside, she never even heard a whisper about the softball team showing up on the wrong day. It wasn't like it only affected RD, and was thus selfcontained like the others. It is harder to fake a text than an email. Email you can hack the account, text, unless you have webtexting, is much harder. Which is a plothole. "Characters ignoring or avoiding obvious solutions to their problems." [from TV Tropes] (this also consequently applies to the crown thing. Another thing she could have done, had she not brought the crown for proof, is go back, grab the crown and enter into the world again. Sunset Shimmer did the same. So long as the portal was open she could have just done that. Obvious solution overlooked) On top of that, considering that RD is the loyal one. Her not approaching AJ is also technically a plothole from a preexisting character trait which would make this relevant too "Characters acting completely Out of Character for no explicable reason." And you can't say that she isn't since she embodies it enough to react to the Twilight's crown. Also Sunset Shimmer's knowledge is vexing as well. "Characters suddenly having knowledge that was never passed to them, or vice versa; characters not knowing something they knew last week, or something that anyone in their position must know." I explained that too in my review. Only very shoddy reasoning can explain it. And how would she know what an element could do in an alternate universe, how could anyone unless it was tried. And according to the first episode they weren't used for 1000 years. (Which makes the entire premise of the movie suspect)

And she was shown at being good at her body MOMENTS before. They had shown she had acclimated. It isn't like the human body is ill designed. In fact they over played that terribly (that is more of a personal annoyance though). Yes, don't bring the object that could be switched with the real deal if needed. You are now impressing your headcanon onto the movie. The crowns looked nothing alike. Again, the real deal looked, well REAL. A school would not be able to afford that it would have been an easy switch. Especially since Principle Celestia would have seen the original crown and known the difference. You've never been to high school have you? Gossip travels fast. If the friends weren't talking to each other the softball team would have talked and even if RD wasn't talking to AJ the word would have reached her eventually. And again, most of that scene was forced and contrived anyway to create the situation where they were separated. Sunset Shimmer even admitted to there being gossip when she confronted AJ. Edit: On second thought, the entire ploy seemed suspect. Assuming that the internet and phones work the same (we were shown how they function so I have no reason to doubt it)... That actually makes it worse... How did Sunset Shimmer gain access to their email accounts and cell phones? Pinkie even showed that she never sent a text. So how did she fake her number? And if she took her phone she must have deleted the text, but considering that she seemed surprised a text was even sent that means it had to be faked some how. Which makes no sense... No it isn't. She literally closed her eyes and threw it backwards. She may not be good at things, but she isn't stupid. Closing your eyes and throwing backwards (when everyone is in front of you) is pretty dumb. Had she caught it off balance and fell backwards RELEASING the crown that would be different. That would show ineptitude. That is not what occurred though.

So that is still only one example (which I don't agree with since, at least with the computer she was fully concentrating on it, in fact when she was not concentrating she used the tips of her fingers to type instead of her fists which goes against all logic)... And again it was a cheap ploy for more "I'm a pony not a human I don't know how to do things" and get those pictures. And on top of that, she was shown to not concentrate on using her hands in many other instances and she didn't use her mouth then either, like right after that when she was talking to spike about the yearbook, she wasn't concentrating on using her hands she just did it. The others are still plotholes too. Two crowns, forgetting the second one. Ignoring gossip in a HS. Not throwing the crown through the portal, which is how the crown entered the world in the first place... The list goes on. Whether you want to admit to it or not, there were many plotholes in it, and I pointed out several.

QuickLime is the common term for Calcium Oxide (CaO), which is a corrosive alkaline crystalline solid. It is very much not a gas since the melting point is well over 2000C (which means the boiling point is even higher). However you can get a pretty decent exothermic reaction by throwing some water on it This would create a corrosive gas which can lead to skin irritation, but it isn't a poisonous [deadly] gas. Since this is a question thread... I do good?

Autumn needs to reconfigure the chat from the site adjustments she made earlier today. So please be patient while she gets to it.

Select all text in the original post, and click the eraser looking button. That will remove all formatting. You should be able to format it any way you wish after that. Or if you want, select only the text you want to remove the bold from (say leaving the headers) and do the same. Though doing each individually might take longer.
