It's a My Little Pony porn game. It's a good My Little Pony porn game, but if you don't like My Little Pony porn games, it's definitely not for you. Honestly, Banned From Equestria (Daily) is extremely high quality compared to the rest of adult MLP games. It's challenging, there are a large variety of ponies to choose from, and it actually has some challenge. It's definitely not for everyone, but it's well-made and fun for anyone who is into that sort of thing.

She's not technically a pony... but Queen Chrysalis. She really is gorgeous. I love her color scheme and unique design. And that hair is to die for. She's just so proud, and she's tall and slender and pardon me if I think those holes are the best thing since Swiss cheese.

The Crystal Empire is outside of Equestria, as is Saddle Arabia, and we do see the place of Queen Chrysalis's exile in the comics. Apart from smaller things like that, I doubt we'll see much beyond the land of Equestria.

I imagine Equestria as being relatively small and rural. There are only a few bustling cities that we know of, namely Canterlot and Manehatten, and while Cloudsdale is widely respected it has nowhere near the sophisticated reputations of those cities. There's a huge amount of wilderness in Equestria, and very few roads have been cleared--many ponies travel by Rariot chariot and those who don't sometimes trek through fire swamps. Equestria is definitely larger than other nations, such as the Crystal Empire, and is definitely desirable as a piece of land. Discord, Chrysalis and Tirek must have chosen Equestria for a reason. I'd say Equestria has large, bustling cities scattered around, but the areas in between these cities are overgrown and really cannot be passed.

I actually didn't like season one all that much. Oh, it was enough for me to continue to watch the show, but I didn't consider myself a fan until I finished season two. Season four is easily and by far my favorite. You bring up a good point about the show is more about the mane six than it was originally, but I think that in season one the show was still taking its first steps; the writers weren't sure where exactly they wanted it to go. Now they have, and the show happens to be focused on character development as opposed to character interactions outside of our main cast. I have personally very much enjoyed the bringing back of older characters. I hated season four's Flim and Flam episode as much as I hated season two's, which actually made me appreciate it a lot more. Season three had very high highs and very low lows, while season four had very high highs and mediocre lows. Season one was a bit underdeveloped, and season two was a slightly more developed version of season one. I've personally enjoyed the show more and more as it's continued, and while the new seasons definitely do have their flaws, I'm still more than satisfied with the show's progress.

I'm 10-16 years old. I posted my age in the Older Bronies topic, but I don't want to advertise it. Just so you know, I'm 14-17, not including 15, 16, or 17 years old. I enjoy interacting with bronies of all ages, but I'll admit it's a bit easier talking to people in my age range.

Oof, I'm definitely not part of the older community here. I'm fourteen. I was actually very surprised by how many teenagers there are in proportion to people over twenty, but I suppose it's to be expected from a forum this big. It's definitely a bit of a relief for me.

I'm interested to see whether or not @@Darker has anything to say on part of our non-brony members. I'd mention someone else, but I don't get around enough.

If this isn’t the first time, why are people making such a big deal of this incident and not of others? I don’t think we can blame anyone but Big Mac for losing his voice. He knew that he had a concert the next day— that he was a huge part of it as the baritone voice— and he had been explicitly told to rest his voice. The Apples were the ones organizing the turkey call contest. If he’d asked, surely AJ and Granny would have been able to reschedule the date. It was unkind of Pinkie to flaunt her victory, but it was by no means her fault that he lost his voice. When was she told to quit? “Don’t be ridiculous” isn’t exactly a scolding. Watch this again. The mane six didn’t object to Pinkie Pie’s… encouragement until after she was done talking. As soon as it was made clear to Pinkie that she had hurt Fluttershy’s feelings, she immediately rushed off to fix it, tell Fluttershy that she was great— and nothing else. Hell, the only time Pinkie was actually aware that she was saying anything bad was when she told Fluttershy “you kind of sounded like a dude”. At this time, Pinkie was in her element. The Goof-Off was there to determine which pony could make Rainbow Dash have the most fun, so it’s only natural that Pinkie would pay attention to Rainbow’s reaction.

They definitely aren't ending the show while it's reeling in so much money. I personally am greatly looking forward to season five. If Twilight has found her place, what about the other mane six? Rainbow Dash becoming a Wonderbolts, Fluttershy singing, Raroy becoming a famous designer? And how will Discord behave now that he's truly reformed? Will he still be a troublemaker, or will part of his personality completely turn around? There are lots of things the show can still add on to, even if our main protagonist has essentially found her place in life.

"Eeyup" is similar to the word "Smurf"--it doesn't have a specific meaning, and just morphs to fit into whatever context it belongs.

Pinkie Pie was not being malicious in “Filli Vanilli”. This is a common misconception I see almost everywhere. I’ve also heard a lot of complaints about Pinkie Pie being a jerk in season four, something I have not noticed— but besides that, the only complaint I have heard to support Pinkie being worst pony in season four is her behavior in “Filli Vanilli”. Even if her behavior here was inexcusable— which I don’t think it was— does it really warrant such a fall to her reputation for an entire season? Or are there other complaints I’m just not seeing? But more on to the topic I’d like to discuss: her behavior, specifically in “Filli Vanilli”, and my defense of it. Pinkie Pie has poor control over her impulses. Most of what she does is on a whim, and not much prevents her from doing anything. She doesn’t think things through, and her dialogue often spirals, as it did in this episode. Think of the Mirror Pinkies in “Too Many Pinkie Pies”. These ponies were still Pinkie Pie at her core: fun-loving, party-seeking, and wanting to make others smile. However, they have not learned the lessons that our Pinkie has: they don’t know the names of their friends, they don’t know they’re being insensitive. They’re simply oblivious. And this is, I think, what Pinkie Pie essentially is. She cares so much about others that she does anything she can to make them smile, even if it’s something they don’t want. Compare it to Spike in “Spike At Your Service”— Spike places his value upon how well he obeys his personal code, and so he does all he can to repay a pony who saved his life. Pinkie places her value upon how happy she makes others, so she does all she can to make them smile. Neither of their attempts are entirely appreciated. Spike is young and has few experiences, which is why he did not understand that AJ did not want his help. Pinkie Pie— the real Pinkie Pie— recognized that AJ’s barn raising needed focus and that Rainbow Dash didn’t want to splash around and go crazy. Her past experiences let her control her original desire to party and have fun so that she could spend time with her friends, even if they didn’t want exactly what she did. The mirror Pinkies did not have these experiences and so did what they originally wanted to— their idea of fun, which they assumed everyone would enjoy. In “Filli Vanilli”, Pinkie Pie does not display the same knowledge that prevented her from splashing around while Rainbow Dash tried to sleep. She lacks tact, but that does not mean her actions are full of malic. When Pinkie Pie tries to encourage Fluttershy in “Filli Vanilli”, she is going entirely on an impulse; she starts out with a good point— you were great, Fluttershy— and just goes off with it. She doesn’t realize what she’s doing. Pinkie doesn’t realize that she’s upsetting Fluttershy at all. In fact, she thinks she’s paying Fluttershy a compliment, and doing nothing other that. This is likely what a Mirror Pinkie would do: as they do not know Fluttershy well, they don’t know how shy she is, nor that a compliment like that would upset her rather than encourage her. Pinkie is normally pretty sensitive to Fluttershy: in “Griffon the Brush Off”, she was the one to stop Rainbow Dash from pranking Fluttershy, as she knew it would scare and upset her. So why doesn’t Pinkie Pie show this same sensitivity in “Filli Vanilli”? I… honestly don’t know. I attribute it to a lapse in judgement. She isn’t being malicious, she isn’t being mean, she’s just being Pinkie. And Pinkie Pie tends to get carried away when it comes to talking. She just doesn’t know when to stop. In “The Last Roundup”, Pinkie Pie isn’t actually trying to annoy Applejack. She’s just being herself, and she happens to be a very chatty self! She gets carried away talking about cherries, and also gets carried away talking about performance. Did she notice that Applejack was getting annoyed? No. She didn’t know that she was being used as a weapon. The mane six likely just told her to go talk to Applejack. And… that’s what she did. This time, she was trying to just talk to Fluttershy. She tried to support her, and didn’t realize she was getting out of handhoof. If the case should be made that “Pinkie Pie should’ve realized that Fluttershy was crying”, AJ also makes it pretty damn clear that she’s annoyed. She sets down her basket of cherries and yells loudly to make it stop. If Pinkie Pie didn’t notice that, there’s no way she would notice Fluttershy quietly crying. Pinkie is surprised at Fluttershy’s running away. She doesn’t really know she’s done anything to provoke it. Pinkie Pie believes that all she said was “you were great”. In conclusion, while I agree that Pinkie Pie was being insenitive in “Filli Vanilli”, I don’t think she was being at all malicious, nor was she being out of character.

I... wow, I don't think I'd be able to do anything with Discord's magic. Create replicas of people, maybe, but I would not be able to hurt the originals. I'd fix a lot of stuff, make myself a Discord lamp, and morph some animal into being my own personal slave.

Flash Sentry grew up with a younger sister who was obsessed with books and eventually became the student of a very esteemed tutor. He taught her how to fly a kite. They never had a single fight. But eventually they grew distant, as Flash Sentry realized his dreams of working in the Crystal Empire guard. They didn't talk for years beyond letters. One day, Flash Sentry sent a letter to his younger sister telling her that he was marrying the Princess of Friendship, Princess Mi Amore Twilight Sparkle. The two fell in love in high school, even though Flash Sentry was super popular and Twilight Sparkle was a bookish nerd. But she went above and beyond to catch his attention, even going so far as to sing publicly about an orange Pegasus with blue eyes. Flash Sentry was pressured into going to the dance with the most popular girl in school, but made it clear that she was not the one for him and that Twilight Sparkle was his super special somepony instead. Then they got married.

Discord is the most powerful non-pony, since he's not technically a pony. I'd say Celestia is the most powerful overall, although she might be reaching a decline in her magical ability due to age and (let's face it) lack of use. Together, the mane six are easily more powerful than Celestia, but the mane six isn't a single pony. It's six.

I feel like the only one who absolutely adored this episode. Fluttershy's behavior was okay— well, not okay, but almost forgivable— because regret was shown, attempts at rectification were made, and things started to get better. What Fluttershy did and said was forgivable; she was not in her right mind. Although it's not something to be forgotten, it's not something to break a relationship for, even if that's what you might want to do initially. I think that Fluttershy’s, for lack of a better word, transformation in “Putting Your Hoof Down” showed not built up resentment but just how much of a pushover Fluttershy really was. Discord attempted to get her to turn against her friends because they thought she was weak and helpless before she ever went to Iron Will’s lecture. He was unable to— but was it because she knew he was a bad guy? She didn’t turn what he said away, and even then didn’t despise him the way the other five did— or was it because there was no resentment? She was not looking to change. She did not realize how weak and helpless she truly was. Yet one lecture from Iron Will was able to convince her to essentially change her entire personality. This is the beginning of a huge development: first, it means she was aware of her need to become more assertive (largely thank to Rarity and Pinkie Pie), and second, it means that just a few words were enough to change everything. Fluttershy genuinely wanted to change— she didn’t in “Return of Harmony”, which is why Discord was unable to discolor her without force— and, with Iron Will’s encouragement, was able to. Completely. It’s brainwashing of a kind. Iron Will is not a bad guy, but Fluttershy was incredibly vulnerable while she went to the lecture. She went there for a new look on life, essentially, and that’s definitely what she got. Because she was such a pushover, it was easy for her to be pressured into becoming more assertive, and from there she couldn’t help but go too far, just as she did with her natural shyness. I’m not quite sure how to finish this post, but I’ll wrap it up by saying that I think “Putting Your Hoof Down” prooved that Fluttershy was far more of a doormat than we ever knew— not that she had buried resentment.

I don't think the show would be able to introduce a romantic relationship with one of the mane characters without the quality, or at least the view count, of the show dropping. Look at what happened with Flash Sentry!
