  1. Hands down "I Am Just A Pony" from the Mane Attraction. Literally such an amazing and emotional song both in context of the episode but also on its own.
  2. Discord, Anthropology, Love Me Cheerilee and Sinking Ships are classics. I've rediscovered a few more obscure songs recently that I liked back in the day and they just hit different.
  3. Dang this is an old thread. I'm here I guess because of nostalgia since I haven't used the forums in like 3 years, and the pleasant atmosphere the community/show has!
  4. Wasn't sure where to post this or even why I'm posting this since I never go on here, but here we are. Just posting this in hopes that anyone I knew and talked to back in the day will stumble across this at some point, or even for people who are in the same boat as me revisiting the forum/reminiscing on the past who can relate. Guess I also need somewhere to rant haha. I'm PonyLaces, I don't go by that name anymore but I used to browse these forums about 5 years ago and stopped in about 2016 or 2017. Things happen and I grew up and lost interest in the show and its direction. Plus I wasn't super big into the fandom to begin with, but I was really into analysis. There was also some random forum drama going on or something that I don't even remember now that partially caused me to leave which is kinda funny lol. I have revisited here from time to time, but essentially forgot about this part of my life since it's admittedly a little embarrassing. After everything that's been happening in the world and being cooped up at home, as well as finally turning into a legal adult and making my next step towards my future in college, I found myself reminiscing on the show as well as this forum since it was pretty much the only way I was part of the fandom. Even the show turning a decade old today (wow!!!) inspired me to revisit and create this post. I often found the show and this community an escape from kind of a sad and an underwhelming high school life (but it gets better!). This show was such a big part of my life and one of the childhood cartoons that really shaped me as a person. It even influenced my current enjoyment of film, TV, and some anime. I did watch the MLP finale (even though I haven't watched the new seasons and forgot what happened in past seasons so I didn't really understand anything), but enjoyed it and thought it was nice to watch the show's conclusion instead of forgetting about it. I have such a soft spot for this show and will defend it in any circumstance regardless of me losing interest in it. I'm terrible at talking to people so the few users from here that I did have contact with I have not talked to in a very long time. I still enjoyed talking to people from here and have met so many users who were a part of my life at some point. I don't see myself using this a ton again, but it is nice to read and catch up on the show/fandom!
  5. yo this show old as hell lol (happy 10 yr anniversary and i have temporarily risen from the dead!)

  6. Spoiler since my list contains the early released episodes. They're just episode titles, but to be safe.. I like all of them though, just some more than others.
  7. I feel the same way. I was originally not going to watch the early releases, but I know they exist and I can't help myself. Just wish they'd stop airing these early episodes in Canada and just go back to normal. I hate how everything is divided like this.
  8. Humor + Parents + Realistic conflict + Scootaloo focus + Rainbow Dash development = Fucking great episode Really hope he writes more episodes this season.
  9. The new episode was fucking fantastic

      We should really call her Flutterbold from now on, because she was not shy at all. It's impressive how far she's come since S1.

  10. "Upcoming event"
  11. I am one of those people who believes Starlight's development has been a bit rushed so far (seriously, how the hell is she already graduating), but there was something so refreshing about Celestial Advice to me. I wasn't expecting it to be this great to be honest. I was expecting just another underwhelming premiere like last season's, kind of lackluster and not as interesting or entertaining. This really exceeded my expectations. I like the idea of it being only a one parter, especially since it was just a slice of life episode. At the same time, I feel like this episode was really needed. There was little to no attention for Twilight's perspective on mentoring Starlight in season 6 which disappointed me, since it has so much potential for developing Twilight. Seeing an entire episode dedicated to it is so great. It had some nice lighthearted humor, sympathetic characters (aside from Discord..), and some much needed backstory/serious moments. Basically everything that I love from the show. So yeah, I'm personally really excited to see where Starlight goes next with her friendship studies and overall I'm just hyped up for what this season has to offer. And uh.. the second episode was fun. 🤷🤷 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ TL;DR - Celestial Advice is gooooooood
  12. >when your post gets in the video I actually jumped when I saw my post. Wasn't expecting that. That aside, I have to agree with a lot of people here about the comment situation. You made it out as if people were really attacking the OP, but they were just respectfully disagreeing with the Junior Brony thing. The whole situation was kind of misrepresented, which is something you should be careful of when talking about something like this to your audience. But that's just what I think. Otherwise, I think you made some great points here that I never really thought about myself and I can agree 100%.
  13. Thank you MLPF for finally adding Discord as a contact method

    A farewell

    After discovering more about all of the slimey shit going on behind the scenes, I've decided that's it's my time to permanently log off the forums. I really don't want to be on a site run by staff in which several people can't be trusted. I honestly don't even feel comfortable here anymore after hearing about what's been happening. So yeah, it's time to go. I was losing interest in the forums and becoming inactive anyway, but all of this drama gives me even more of a reason to leave this place. I'm glad I was part of this community at one point though. During my time here, I've participated in many interesting discussions and I've met a lot of great people from here who I hope I can continue to talk to outside of the forums. All things come to an end, but this unbelievable drama was just a catalyst to my departure. Forum stuff aside, I mostly use Discord now and I'm also planning a new YouTube channel, so that's a thing. If you don't have either of those, you can add me on Skype. Also, I'm going by different names now. PonyLaces (the alias) is pretty much dead, so yeah. The point is, I'm not going to be here anymore and things are changing. But if you're actually interested in contacting me, feel free to use any of those methods. Despite leaving the forums, I'd love to talk to people. Anyways, I don't want to make this too lengthy. I just hope justice is served, the real truth is shown, and there ends up being a realization that something needs to change around here. Best wishes to everyone. Discord: Rock#7729
  17. yeah, I'm out of here

  18. Scootaloo: "I know what it's like to want something that's out of reach, and just because it hasn't happened yet doesn't mean it can't. Maybe trying for the impossible isn't so bad." And that's when I instantly loved the episode. Jokes aside, I loved this. All 3 of the CMCs were fantastic, and they weren't bland or dumbed down versions of themselves for once. So yeah, their characterization was on point. Gabby is a great new character and an interesting addition to the CMC. I'm so glad this episode didn't have a predictable resolution by making Gabby get her cutie mark somehow. The resolution was a lot more realistic and meaningful, and that just makes me so happy. Also, Scootaloo was excellent here and seeing her have some time to shine was fitting and perfect and she definitely deserved it. The continuity in this episode was very impressive, those brief Twilight scenes were great, and the song was pretty enjoyable. Overall, awesome episode.
  19. I approve of the new episode.

      I tried to watch a stream of it but then they switched to one that he already had downloaded for less lag. ..And it was in another language. Gotta watch it in English

  20. Silver Spoon's double ear in Flight to the Finish is so distracting. How did nobody on the production team catch that?
