If you could change your MLP OC/ponysona into a different canon MLP creature, like a griffon/centaur/yak/etc, what would they be? 
For those who already have an OC/sona who isn't a pony, pick a different creature! 

Others' views on bronies have changed many times, from being warm and friendly to unwelcoming weirdos 
But whether you call yourself a brony/pegasister or not, what is your opinion on the community now? (Just don't be rude )
 

D-I-N-O-S-A-U-R a dinosaur! 

I either wouldn't reply or I'd say "hold on one second," then I'd call 911 or any authorities in the area  As someone who isn't very mentally well myself, if a person is in a "completely mental" state, it can be dangerous for them to be in public. You don't know what this person might be going through, so I feel it's best to leave it to those who should know how to handle it; maybe take the person to the hospital just in case.

Sweetie Drops...? I think we have enough "Sweetie" ponies  Plus, Bon Bon just sounds better  and it's less of a mouthful to say out loud.

Do you want to appreciate more artists who worked on all things pony?  Art is Magic is looking for a Moderator to manage its Museum! 

Your responsibilities should be to:
1) Post an artist shoutout topic in the Museum bimonthly
2) Write about and demonstrate why we appreciate the artist of the month
3) Effectively communicate and collaborate with other available Mods to maintain consistency of topics
You are also qualified to have:
1) Knowledge or interest in the subject of MLP artists/animators
2) Experience in blogging and moderating

Interested?  Shoot me a message! 

I'm not sure what his talent is, but I thought of Color Wheel, Munsell Hue, or Pastel Palette 
The green color is also very prominent so maybe names with Lime, Mint, Pistachio, Peridot, Spring, or Pastel in it?

TwiPie is one of my most favorite ships  The ultimate Introvert x Extrovert!

We can finally dissect Sunny! 

I'd visit China if I had a friend who can translate, or a tour guide. I love their languages, as they sound very beautiful to me, and their rich, deep culture is very interesting. 
But I wouldn't go solely for MLP  It would be quite rude traveling to another country for one thing like that without learning about the culture and understanding wrong and right etiquette

A few cute, curly-maned individuals 

I'm not sure if I have a real reason why I like them, other than "I just think they're neat!" 

She can definitely get in a depressed mood, but I (personally) don't think she has depression; she just gets more of how extroverts feel when they're deprived of communication for a while.

When it comes to pasta I like Japanese ramen.

 

Ramen would count as noodles, since "noodles" derived from Asia, and "pasta" is from Europe  There are more differences between pasta and noodles than just that, but they're different nonetheless 

My first scar is on my lower back. I had a giant scab or birth mark (I don't remember what it was because I was very young and didn't care) on the area that I scraped off with my own hands (for some reason) 
Second scar is behind my ear because I had surgery for my Cochlear Implant  So now there's a big chunk of my skull missing and glasses/hats will always be crooked 
Third scar is on my knee from a car crash! And my last two scars are from jumping on my bed *completely forgetting that there's a sharp pencil there*  Not sure how that happened twice.
Edit: I completely forgot about a dog bite scar on my hand! My dog was only a puppy when she bit me so it's not a big deal, plus whenever it will be time for her to pass I could look at this scar to remember her by 

Katie Cook is a writer and artist for a few IDW Issues, her very first work being for Issues #1-4

More of her MLP work can even be found on her old website:

Her ponysona, Bittersweet, has also shown up in the comics, the show, and even the game!
 

Most bronies around the time FIM became popular were teenagers, so the current majority of the MLP fandom being grown adults is pretty inevitable. 
What's also inevitable are folks finding a sexual interest in the characters and sharing how they think and feel, whether by writing or art. I don't find ponies particularly attractive myself, but I won't bash those who harmlessly do.
Not trying to shoot down your opinions, you have every right to express how you feel as well. Just sharing what's on my mind as I read this

You mean it didn’t already?

Compared to previous generations, G4 kinda had way more males 

To continue the tradition of MLP rarely having stallions or other male pony characters, how would you feel if G4 did as well? Maybe Shining Armor, Big Macintosh, and a few bad guys could be the only boys, while everypony else are female. 

Do you think this would drastically change how the generation went on? 

I would assume ponies are just way too used to being around other ponies  Also, I wouldn't say ponies are afraid of zebras. As far as we know, it was only Zecora who was wrongfully rumored to be evil.
I think it's pretty understandable to be afraid of dragons though  Not trying to dehumanize them, but if you came across a literal giant person who had sharp teeth and claws, breathed fire, and could fly, no metaphor, well... you either like 'em or you don't like 'em.

Reason 2: Use of AI in video games.

AI in video games is inevitable. Quote from Wiki, "Artificial intelligence has been an integral part of video games since their inception in the 1950s."
The problem with Enchanted Portals is that the level designs (platforms and enemies) were programmed to be randomized. Video games make (good) use randomization all the time, but, like you said, using it for platform games is generally looked down upon.

Do you think content generated by AI should be banned or do you think there should be more strict rules in place so that the use of it doesn't spiral out of control like a cloud?

I believe AI generations should've continued to privately be studied and experimented on by those who are serious about it, rather than allowing the public mess around with it however they'd like.

I've never actually noticed until now and looking at his cutie mark

yeah I can see it

 

Off-topic, but it's also really.. small 

Weird Al pony! Er I mean.. the one and only Cheese Sandwich! 

If you could wake up as any one of the Mane 6 in their universe, just for a day, who would it be? 

I'd want to wake up as Twilight, but specifically before she became an alicorn  I'd like to read through a bunch of books at her library (my library for the day ) without worrying of princess duties 

Requests!
Sunset Shimmer and Fluttershy/Posey

I wonder what they're looking at 

I've never seen the show, but I think it looks fine  I'm also pretty sure I had a Ponyville Minty and Ponyville Pinkie Pie toy when I was younger
