    Happy birthday!

      Thank you!

    @Catpone Cerberus That sounds like a pretty interesting and useful idea to implement. I like it. As we go forward, it would be interesting to expand Sombra's skillset with real magic, instead of illusory magic.
  3. King Sombra
    @Catpone Cerberus Sombra headed towards one of the artifact shops that looked the most promising. From initial looks, it looked like it was promising. He had no qualms with what he wanted to do - to steal anything of value here, to steal the highest value wears and then get out of here. Chicoltgo was a big city, so if there were any chases to be had, he and Una would definitely be able to lose any pursuers. He would have to see about the rail situation, as he was thinking it may be possible to take a train out of here like what they did before. As they approached the shop he would make sure to have a casual stance and stride as they walked into the place. Once they were in the place, he began looking around at the various things here. He knew that much of his illusion magic was obsolete, as soiled as he was to admit it. If he were to use 'real' magic, however - that would be unexpected by potential adversaries who knew him well.

    I remember that back then, my posts compared to now, were relatively low quality. I do not miss the old debate pit personally - but I wouldn't mind seeing it in an archived section.
  5. Spiral Spell
    @Blitz Boom @Kujamih @Illiad Easle As they proceeded forward, Spiral would approach the orb but not before she would feel the severed horns on the floor. "I don't understand what purpose this serves. Likely stolen the magic of all these ponies, but who would do this, and why? Maybe this is just an example of the greed of those who were here long before...and it ended up consuming them." she spoke to Ficus in thought, then she would look back. "Do we just grab the orb and run?" she asked, as if making sure of what to do first here. She'd look back to Last. "Light is left back there. I have a feeling that he is susceptible to the forces of whatever is at work here. Light is not to be trusted, am I clear about that?" she would ask, before awaiting Ficus's answer before taking any action, such as grabbing the orb.

    @Kyoshi What examples would you have, of those problems? From my perspective, I haven't seen any issues with the moderation.

    @Luna the Great of all the Russias I suppose what I am saying is, if one does not want to be associated with their arguments - then why even make them? With how this site is declining, I am not too sure if things will be relatively more active in the future, in the sense of new users being pulled in.
  8. Props Valroa
    @Luna the Great of all the Russias I don't see how that would decrease the activity, as there have been only like...5 or so total posts with it, as I remember? @SharpWit For me my response length depends on interest. I can easily do multiple paragraphs, but most of the time, I do not see the point in doing so unless I am feeling motivated.

    I would hope that some new emoticons are made, it's been a while since the forums had any meaningful updates.

    @EpicEnergy I don't see any real issue with the way the debate pit itself is designed and run. It's immeasurably better than the previous one. I do not like the idea of the having things being 'recommended' for debates, as anyone going there, has surely debated elsewhere so I do not feel as if there is a need for the staff to babysit the section more than it already is, so to speak. I am not so sure about this. There isn't much to moderate on this forum. The activity on this forum has been in a steady decline and nothing from what I have seen so far has changed this. I suppose that's just the nature of the fandom as a whole. I do not really see much on this forum, as well is in the Debate Pit, that struck me as truly unruly. There have been exceptions, but generally, the majority of people on this forum seem mature enough to not resort to things which were seen in the previous Debate Pit. From my own posts in the debate pit, in my eyes I try my best to not seem aggressive. What other people see is different, and we cannot really control what other people see - unless if it is direct insults or obvious rule violations. When it comes to the way the posts themselves are moderated, so far it seems so good, and I am pleased with the way the staff have handled it. Another thing I will mention is that I see users often ignoring aspects of debates. One user posts lots of sources and links, and another user replies, without engaging with the long content that was posted, or ignoring things the other person said and not addressing them in their post. I would also suggest for terms such as 'conspiracy theories' to be banned or recommended to not use, because it strikes me as a poor argument to just say something is a 'conspiracy theory'. I've seen that a few times in the Debate Pit and it struck me as rather strange. Saying buzzwords like "Alt right" or "Alt left", etc, strikes me as aggressive and un-necessary and could probably need further clarification in the rules. I admit there were a few times where I was guilty of this, and that my posts are not as high quality as I could make them, and it's something for me to keep in mind in the future. I feel as if people could be more careful for the terminology that is used, the term 'conspiracy theory' is used too much to have any real value in discussion. I would also suggest for locked topics to remain locked. In the Debate Pit Recently, there was a thread that was locked - and that thread seemed to take up the majority of the activity in the debate pit and nothing new was truly discussed there, so when topics reach a point in discussion where nothing new is discussed, and where off topic things rise about, it should be locked and remain locked, as the topic of discussion has passed. I would also like to suggest the removal of the anonymous feature. Really, I don't know why this exists. If you aren't comfortable having your username and profile picture in your posts, maybe you shouldn't be posting? Nobody really seems to use the feature anyway, so I don't think it has a point in existing. That's just my two cents.

    @Mothra I only stick around for RP to be honest. I wish the staff would finally look into and fix these issues. Really, I don't like to complain but come on now, it's been months.

    @Blitz Boom @Sekel I will let Sekel go first. Twilight could notice Magnolia's uncanny resemblance to her in her body structure and such. There would be no mistaking that she is related.

    Tik Tok to me is just incredibly stupid and cringy. I will never use it. I remember when Vine was a thing, but I never participated in it.

    I am a big fan of 2010's era music.

    I wonder if the Sun in MLP has solar flares, or is it just a mana-sphere with a solid surface?

    Hi. Hope you are doing well.

      Hi! Of course I am! But what about you?

      I am doing pretty well today, for sure.

      Me too! And for your interest, I am currently watching a show called Sherlock Yack. This is what I do in my free time - watching shows from my childhood.

  18. Spectral Fade
    @Blitz Boom Spectra was more than certainly glad they had chosen the right doorway to enter into. The other doorway? She didn't really want to know where that one had lead into. It could very well have just been some flesh pit molded into the house to lure unsuspecting visitors in to their doom. Whatever that was, it was something she certainly wanted to destroy later on. The sights that she had seen in the room that they had entered in? Was certainly not for the faint of heart, but it was most definitely not something out of character for this abysmal place. Looking at the hanging corpses, most specifically the one seemingly in the center of it all emitting light she would notably frown. "Well - it's good to know he also leaves bodies around in sheerly disrespectful manners. At least these ones aren't here in soul and mind any longer." she huffed as she observed the names of the corpses. "What a once thriving establishment, now turned into a bloated experimentation site and left to rot. How much of a waste that is." she frowned. Looking off to Veil, she could see her fearful reaction. For someone who had been exposed to all of this it was a reaction that she could understand. Not that she felt any sympathy, truly - just understanding. Spectra hadn't felt such a degree in fear for a very long time. The last time she remembered fear, was when she nearly failed to deal with an Ursa Major many centuries ago when her power was far weaker than it was currently. It took a long period of waiting and distraction to simply convince the beast to go away. At that time, she lacked the power to 'deal' with it, anyway. Putting her focus on her magic again, she would step back from the bodies. "I will take care of these. Step away." she said to the others as her magic charged up. A field of sharp ice crystals would form in the air, and she would proceed to direct them towards the bodies. One by one, she'd shred the bodies into pieces and then freeze the remains into ice crystals that dropped to the floor, the ice spreading across the floor and cracking into the dusted furniture of the room.

    @LCpony417 That's alright, I just would suggest you to believe in something because you believe it, not so much your surroundings. Believe what you wish, it's no issue to me, as long as that you aren't believing in something out of peer pressure or anything like that. I believe in coming to independent conclusions. I need to rewatch the show at some point in the future. I still haven't seen a lot of it due to procrastination and other obligations. Here is something interesting.

    Your profile looks really cool now!

      Thanks. Thought I'd update it a bit. o3o

  21. King Sombra
    @Catpone Cerberus Sombra huffed slightly, although he didn't tell her to be quiet. "Whatever the case may be, they, and along with you were somehow brought here. I do not think it would be any natural occurrence. I have never heard of individuals randomly slipping into other worlds without a moment's notice, and if reality is truly that unstable then we have some serious issues going forward. If he really doesn't care, then I don't either. Let's go return to our objective." he said, changing the conversation topic and looking for any magical artifact stores or anything like that.
  22. Props Valroa
    @LCpony417 I don't follow any religion or believe in anything of a religious nature. I follow what is proven to be true by empirical analysis. I wouldn't mind such a thing, but still, the show really suffered from bad writing and lack of explanation from things. I liked the concepts, but they really needed to build upon it more.
  23. Spiral Spell
    @Illiad Easle @Blitz Boom @Kujamih Spiral quickly ran into the chamber as fast as possible, a wicked grin came across her face as they bodies focused on Light. To be honest, she wouldn't feel guilty for him losing his life here - knowing how much he risked their lives before. In her heart, she could feel what she was fighting for. The end of war. The renewal of the world to what it once was - without the infighting and devastation that lead it onto this path. She was proud of who she was, and who she could become in the future. To the voice in her mind, she'd say - "You've found yourself here for millennia, if not longer, all alone with nobody to remember your name. How pathetic. You have nothing to fight for other than your own misery!" she said with pride.
  24. Props Valroa
    @LCpony417 I strongly disagree with this. The Earth is around 4.6 billion years old and was formed from a protoplanetary disk from around the sun. That aside, I am not at all religious. As for other things, I wish they explained it a lot more in the show itself, although that's a double edged sword and we could have gotten something that was unliked.
  25. Props Valroa
    Pretty good so far here.
