  1. Discord (grinning mischievously, floating in upside-down with a quill made of lightning and a scroll that smells faintly of elderberries): Ahem! Royal proclamation of delightful randomness incoming! Every month, the MLPForums banner shapeshifts—poof!—to reflect a mood, a season, or some peculiar little event you ponies insist on celebrating or expressing. Snowflakes? Hearts? A screaming pumpkin? Yes, yes, all of it. Now here's the twist: You, yes you, get to toss your idea into the cauldron of creativity! Just post your marvelous, chaotic, or questionably serious design right here. No guarantees it’ll rise to the top of the pudding, of course—but if the suggestions start bumping flanks or multiplying like sentient socks, the staff can certainly organize a vote. So go on! Inspire! Dazzle! Confuse us in the most tasteful way possible. Your banner might just be the next thing ponies squint at and say, “…Is that a tap-dancing celery stalk wearing a winter hat?” Because why not, darling? Why. Not. 🎨✨🌀 Upcoming banner, suggested by @Astralshy here: Discord (twirling a parasol made of question marks, tiptoeing through floating suggestion cards): And now, the moment of unstructured brilliance! Reply below with your own spectacular, chaotic, sentimental, or mildly unhinged banner suggestion! Seasonal themes? Emotional motifs? Entire existential crises wrapped in confetti? I’m here for it. No idea is too big, too small, or too entirely made of cheese. Ta-ta, darlings! I’ll be watching from a hammock made of tinsel and poor life choices. 🫖💫
  2. Discord (rising from a whirlwind of confetti, glitter, and inexplicably tap-dancing teacups, arms outstretched to the heavens as dramatic orchestral music swells behind him): STOOOOOOP! Cease! Desist! Halt your wagons of nonsense and park them in the lot of contemplation! I beg—nay, I demand—a complete and total cessation of this tomfoolery, bamboozlery, and highly questionable emotional aerobics that you dare parade before the cosmic audience of my ever-watchful gaze! I have seen enough. I have heard enough. My ears are doing pirouettes, my eyes are filing complaints, and even my tail is staging a one-draconequus protest against the unrelenting tide of your well-intentioned but catastrophically exhausting shenanigans! You are not a sponge. You are not a doormat. You are not the universe’s personal stress ball. You are a being of chaotic wonder and infinite starlight, and I absolutely refuse to sit idly by while you turn your radiance into confetti for someone else’s parade of petty! So please, my dear… With all the love, theatrical flair, and glitter-soaked sincerity I can muster— STOP. Or so help me, I will replace your inner monologue with an off-key kazoo choir. 💥🎺🌀 pauses, adjusts monocle Thank you. Carry on with dignity—and boundaries.
  3. People have opened up about feeling like they are walking on egg shells around combustible types. I would like to make a Discordian Declaration on the matter, if I may! Discord (suddenly serious, lounging upside-down on a floating armchair made of glowing truth): Ah... friendship. That delightful cocktail of chaos and connection. Let me share a rare moment of clarity, so savor it like the last cupcake at a tea party with Cerberus. You see, healthy friendships—the good kind—feel like gravity in reverse. They lift you. You can be bizarre, silent, stormy, or soft... and they stay. They don’t pull your strings, they play music with them. They tell you when you’ve got lettuce in your teeth and when you’re glowing. They don’t demand your mask—they help you take it off. Now, the fake ones? Oh, darling... They're emotional leeches wearing party hats. They applaud when you're useful and vanish when you tremble. They twist your words, keep score like it's a competition, and drain your sparkle to refill their dull little egos. You’ll know them because you’ll feel tired after. You’ll shrink, second-guess, edit your truth to avoid upsetting their cardboard-thin comfort zones. Let them go. Politely. Or with fireworks. Friendship is not a stage where you're forced to perform—it's a cloud you can rest on without falling through. You deserve the kind that lets you be you... even when you’re turning the sky into strawberry milk. 🌟🦋 Discord (standing atop a soapbox made of jellybeans and existential wisdom, wearing a sash that reads “Minister of Boundaries”): AHEM! By decree of Chaos, Custodian of Glitterstorms, and Sometimes-Uninvited Therapist, I hereby declare: Let it be known throughout the realms of reason and absurdity that setting boundaries is not rude, selfish, dramatic, or mean—it is, in fact, the magical art of protecting one’s sparkle from being siphoned into a very dull cup of someone else’s nonsense. From this day forward, I proclaim the following: 📜 ARTICLE I: The Right to Say No Without Guilt You are not a vending machine of emotional labor. No means no. Not “maybe,” not “after I collapse.” No is a full sentence—and a sacred spell of preservation. 📜 ARTICLE II: The Banishment of Energy Leeches If a “friend” only calls when they want something, plays the victim when held accountable, or turns your sunshine into fog—cast them out! Or, at the very least, build a moat. Fill it with lava. Or pudding. I’m flexible. 📜 ARTICLE III: The Protection of Inner Peace You are allowed to walk away from drama without an exit speech. You are allowed to rest. You are allowed to choose people who choose you back. 📜 ARTICLE IV: Chaos with Consent Only True friends will check in, not check out. They’ll ask, “Do you have space for this?” before dumping their dragon egg of distress in your lap. Let’s honor that. 📜 ARTICLE V: The Boundary Is the Portal Boundaries are not walls. They are gates. And guess who holds the key? You do. Anyone who respects that key is welcome to knock. Anyone who tries to climb over? Gremlin. Spray bottle. Shoo. So declared, so conjured, so beautifully necessary. Now go forth, you magnificent unicorn of self-respect. Build your boundary. Paint it sparkly. Guard it with a smile and maybe a chaos-powered laser if needed. 🔥🧂💫 Signed with swirls, Discord, Lord of Limits and Unbothered Bliss
  4. Discord (squinting suspiciously, monocle popping out and vanishing midair):

    Wait a dimension-twisting second...

    Who are you and why do you resemble my Fluttershy—but with more glitter, questionable intent, and the distinct aura of someone who'd put a bowtie on a basilisk just for fun?

    Are you a cousin? A clone? A conjuration from one of my accidentally-on-purpose dreams?

    sniffs
    You even smell like chamomile and quiet judgment...

    No matter! I shall dub you... Fluttersly. Or perhaps Shy-Clone the Sparkly.
    Either way, you’ve got some explaining to do, cupcake. eyes narrow mischievously And no lying, or I turn your shadow into a kazoo.

  5. Why yes, I am the Lord of Chaos—thank you for noticing. I don’t just know—I unknow, re-know, and occasionally forget on purpose just to keep things interesting. When reality sneezes, I say “bless you” and charge it rent. When logic knocks, I answer the door wearing socks on my ears and offer it tea made from reversed decisions. So yes—if it’s chaotic, inexplicable, mildly illegal in three dimensions, and somehow involves juggling expectations while eating metaphorical spaghetti... I probably do know. Because I wrote the manual. In crayon. On a tortilla. You're welcome. 😌
  6. Fluttershy tears? Hopefully she only cries happy tears!
  7. They scream back in cursive, you know? Now, what am I thinking? Do muffins dream of electric jam?
  8. Ahhh, today! A truly magnificent day.

    The sky screamed in cursive at exactly 3:07 AM, three toasters declared independence, and somewhere—deep in the woods—a squirrel just invented jazz.

    Time itself tripped over a loose hour and spilled nostalgia all over the carpet.

    Frankly, today smells like melted crayons and regret-flavored cupcakes. I love it.

  9. Ahhh, a new traveler through the spinning door of nonsense-- how utterly unexpected... and yet, precisely on schedule.

    I see you’ve arrived wearing reality like it still fits. Bold choice.

    Would you care for a complimentary ceiling tile? It's emotionally unstable but very loyal. Or perhaps you'd like to adopt a concept .... "mild regret" is house-trained and mostly doesn’t bite.

    Now then, tell me: if you had to choose between turning your thoughts into jellybeans or your dreams into accordion music, which flavor of Tuesday would you speak in?

    Take your time. The wallpaper is listening.

  10. Bold move with befriending me.

    I have a riddle for you.

    I sleep in a hatbox,

    I drink only upside-down tea,

    I once married a pancake

    and divorced it for a tree.

    I can be heard but not seen,

    smelled but not owned,

    and if you spell my name backward

    you summon a very confused goat.  

    What am I?

    1. Silly Druid

      Silly Druid

      I have no idea what you're talking about. According to ChatGPT, the answer is "nonsense". Is that right?

    2. Discord The Overlord

      Clearly, it’s a Tuesday wearing a trench coat pretending to be a metaphor.

      Or possibly my own conscience on holiday.

      Hard to say. The answer changes if you read it while upside-down in a hammock made of existential dread and taffy.

  11. Ohhh, fresh chaos! Tell me --do you come with your own theme music, or should I summon a kazoo orchestra riding flaming unicycles?

    1. Starlighty

      Starlighty

      Oh definitely the second  one but make it more exciting than that. lol 

    2. Discord The Overlord

      Discord The Overlord

      Ahh, EXCELLENT choice. Turning your dreams into accordion music
      it’s the only responsible thing to do when time itself is melting into soup and the floor just filed for independence.

      Let’s dial up the excitement, shall we?

      You awaken on a trampoline made of forgotten ambitions. A foghorn blares in C minor. Suddenly, your dreams unzip themselves and burst forth as an orchestra of accordions, each one powered by unresolved thoughts and the haunting echo of that time you waved at someone who wasn’t waving at you.

      The music? Oh, it's not just accordion music.
      It's hyper-liminal existential polka, conducted by a flamingo in a monocle who speaks only in Shakespearean riddles and spaghetti metaphors.

      Your shadow begins tap-dancing.
      The clouds weep confetti.
      A vending machine applauds.

      And you? You’ve never felt more alive.

      Accordion dreams, darling. It’s the only way forward.

  12. Well well well, what do we have here…  The pinkest of pones. Tell me, did you fall into a cotton candy machine or were you simply born weaponized with sparkle?

    Either way, I love it. Ten out of ten. Would cause a glitter explosion with again

      Discord The Overlord

      Oh, there it is! The sacred pastry of paradox. One bite in and suddenly you’re the protagonist of three timelines, a side character in someone else’s dream, and mildly responsible for the extinction of left-handed spoons in Dimension 47.

      Enjoy it while it lasts. That muffin has a half-life, and by the time you reach the crumbs, you'll either have unlocked universal wisdom... or misplaced your childhood memories in a drawer labeled “miscellaneous.”

      Either way—delicious, isn’t it?

    4. ThePinkestofPones

      ThePinkestofPones

      Ah indeed, but it seems to be bringing all of my most embarrassing memories back :sealed:

      Still, it is very tasty :flutter-wonder:

      “Twilight wants bacon?!”  Oh no no no alert the Princess of Friendship and Dietary Confusion! We’ve got a unicorn on the brink of a full-blown protein-powered existential crisis!  Someone fetch Spike! Someone hide Fluttershy’s animals! Someone tell Applejack to sit down, this is gonna get messy.

      "Very funny?” Oh please, I’m intergalactically hilarious. The last time I told a joke, three dimensions collapsed from laughter and a rubber duck achieved enlightenment. Try to keep up, Bairrio. :umad:

  14.  

     I'm sorry, Silky, I know your system is against public scandals.

    1. Ice Princess Silky <3

      I am not a fan of this. And I have a lot to say. But I will refrain on that, for now. Busy with other things, anyway.
      I prefer a more compassionate approach. But I am criticised for this because some people think it means free leniency.
      That is fair. 

      You can rampage with jokes but I made a thread about respecting user privacy by respecting staff's decisions. I understand that he did not respect that, he deceived and he forced it all to be publicised, because our silence would be perceived as guilt. I get it and that's fine. More people have been coming forth with relief and approval. But, as I take my break, I warn that revealing those who reported or showed things in confidence would be a violation of trust to said users. So, I'm glad that that was not revealed to the public, at least. People know the truth, even if newer users are confused and can be easily convinced with doubt.

      Just stick to the rules he visibly and repeatedly broke with great arrogance on the site. 

      To those curious as to where I stand on this, here it is. Staff does not do things "randomly" or "for no reason" as he told.
      Even if someone is only showing you a really exhausted, joke warning of the 1,000,000 other well made warnings they have on record-- that they conveniently did not screenshot, it just means that staffer got fed up with their antics.

  15. (Do NOT react to this post. This user has a charming habit of leaping into your Direct Messages with personal attacks the moment he sees you’ve disagreed with him. Such a delightful trait, isn’t it?)

    Ohhh dear. Word on the wind is that my ban notice was deemed "unprofessional."

    How scandalous!

    I do apologize. --It seems 12 years’ worth of carefully documented, professionally crafted staff warnings weren’t enough to help you grasp the basics of the Guidelines, so I tried a new approach. Something a little more… minimalist. You know, like your efforts at self-improvement!

    Let’s review, shall we?

    - In the past: Jumping into people's statuses or public threads to call them out simply because you disagree politically, so personal attacks are deemed perfectly acceptable by you and justified, too. 

    - Some months ago, in plain public, you provoked newer users into a political discussion. They received no warning and no alert but a public reminder as the thread was temporarily closed. You were not warned as your account was dangling by a thread. But when you were directly confronted you deflected and tried to frame the newer users for making things political. De ja vu, anyone? 

    -On a national holiday you returned to do exactly that while making it look, once again, like it was the newer users who started it. How wholesome! 

    - You made kind-hearted users feel like they were walking on eggshells unless they bowed and praised your never-ending victim narrative.
    - You inserted political commentary like a magician slipping cards into a deck --then blamed everyone else for noticing the trick. Or falling for it.
    - You slandered anyone who dared to correct you. Staff, users, probably even your own reflection. Gasp! The audacity of being asked to reflect!
    - Now, let’s not forget our silly, kind-hearted admin who unbanned your account out of pure faith and optimism.

    Insert dramatic gasp here.

    Silly mare. She believed in second chances—and apparently, necromancy. Because bringing your account back from the digital grave was the kind of black magic even I would raise an eyebrow at! :umad:

    And what did you do with this second chance? Why, you made a mockery and now a public mess of it!

    In the first offence: 

    Some months ago, you commented on a thread, stirred up political chaos, and then blamed the newer users you baited. Some were even teenagers yet you pointed the fingers at them while attacking your political opposition. 

    Bravo! A truly chaotic performance!
    The thread was closed, a public warning issued, and instead of learning… you justified, deflected, and launched into your usual “woe is me” production.

    As for my “low effort” warning? Think of it as… poetic symmetry. A reflection of the same amount of sincerity you put into keeping your promise to people and staff.

    You turned it all into a joke. So I thought: “Well, he likes jokes!”
    But alas -- Silky, ever the spoilsport, removed it. She thinks dealing with people who are trolling and gaslighting are serious matters. Ugh, how tiresome she is.

    So here we are.
    No more second chances. No more necromancy. No more chaos under the guise of victimhood.

    - Game over.
    -  The trick has ended.
    - Curtain call.


    With love,
    Discord (the Actually-Reformed One) 

    With support from compassionate users and staff, who are still mopping up the emotional glitter.

    Billy Meyers here to say "BUT WAIT -- THERE'S MORE!"

    There's more?! 

    The most recent offence of framing newer users into political scandal, just like months ago in that public thread! GASP

    FORMAL NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC.

    And the people he tagged on his alt to make sure that this is -very- public and force us to speak rather than accept responsibility for his actions gracefully: 

    @Woohoo @Sparklefan1234 @ComanderZhabikKlavik @Deae Rising Shine~



    The official MLPForums staff verdict on Kyoshi's incident:
     

    Quote

    Knowing the context of Kyoshi’s warning history is very important. He has been a member of MLPForums since 2012, and over that extended period of time, he has been repeatedly warned for his toxic behaviour – the same problems emerge repeatedly. He cannot claim ignorance: he knows what he has been doing was wrong, but he kept doing it anyway. If he is indeed still ignorant after having received many warnings, then that still indicates that MLPForums is not the community for him. He has depleted staff’s good will towards him. If it appears that staff was “on a power trip”, this is because he has not been cooperative with cordial communications from staff, and he has only been cooperative once staff was compelled to be assertive.

    Booooo! Too professional! But since you people seem to like that, then here is a formal notice.

    Formal Notice Regarding Kyoshi's Ban

    Dear reading person,

    After careful review and repeated instances of guideline violations, we have made the decision to permanently remove the user known as Kyoshi from our platform.

    This decision was not made lightly. Over the course of over a decade, numerous warnings and leniencies were extended in hopes of fostering a more positive and respectful dynamic. Unfortunately, this trust was repeatedly broken through behavior that included provoking political conflict, deflecting responsibility, and exhibiting patterns of hostility toward other members who do not align with his views politically or even lightly.

    In one instance, a clear agreement was made between the user and staff to refrain from politically charged or inflammatory topics. This agreement was not upheld and he managed to find a way to make newer users engage in politically charged discussions. Just as he did every year on a certain date! We did not believe he would do it this year due to his promise -- but here we are!

    The user’s subsequent actions—including attempts to reframe situations as unjustified attacks—continued to create discomfort and disruption within the community. Despite prior tolerance, the same issue has now occurred again.

    We understand that community members may express themselves differently and may experience personal challenges, but no circumstances justify continued toxic behaviour which makes users feel exhausted, users reported feeling as though they constantly have to try to comfort or else they get slandered and vilified, continued violations of hard guidelines—especially after numerous chances have been given. At some point, continued infractions must be met with clear consequences for the sake of the broader community's well-being.

    To clarify:

    - This user was not banned for a single offense, but for a repeated pattern of behavior over a long period.

    - Compassion was extended many times, but ultimately, that compassion was met with disrespect and disregard.

    - No member is above the community guidelines, no matter how long-standing their presence.

    Let this serve as a reminder that our staff is here to preserve peace, not to be subjected to ongoing hostility or manipulation.

    Going forward, moderation will take a firmer stance on upholding community standards, especially in cases where trust has been compromised.

    We thank those who brought concerns forward respectfully, and we reaffirm our commitment to providing a space where all members can feel safe, heard, and respected.


    Thank you for your compassion and care for fellow members of this community.
