  1. Given that it's a roleplaying forum, I can understand. 100 characters isn't that much; I have to fill out three or four paragraphs just on personality for my application to even be considered in some places. This mini-paragraph alone is 252 characters. I'll check out your backstory. c:
  2. So Manehattan is still on the table? C< Excellent; I really liked the plan Slipstream came up with. I just... well, I've fled forums before for little things, and I was afraid you'd be angry with me for bailing.
  3. I, um... I kind of had a mental collapse that kept me off the boards for several days, and then I'd been gone from here for so long that I was scared to come back. I am probably obsolete by now, but I figured I at least owed you guys an explanation. Sorry for wimping out on you.
  4. OKAY rough couple of days for me, and I'm still not completely settled(my schedule opposes most peoples'; midweek is when I'm most free, weekends I'm really busy), but I can actually contribute a bit now. Off to read backlog; sorry if anyone was waiting on me.
  5. It's not actually steampunk, no; that's just a decent word to explain how some of the MLP tech works. It's fantasy, straight up. Steampunk is one of my favorite genres to play and read from, so I know a bit too much about it. Enough to where I get my feathers in a ruffle when someone just glues gears to something and calls it "in steampunk style." I have a preoccupation. <<
  6. Guns aren't crucial to steampunk, they're a consequence of the genre. The only thing that steampunk needs is to have technology offshooting from the "steam and machinery" era of civilization, usually pictured as kind of Victorian in nature. They had guns, so steampunk gets guns.
  7. The only reason I'm with InfinityWhale on the muskets is that they seem to be so important to everyone. Why do we need guns anyway? They don't fit, they're convoluted, and we have magical ponies who can cast spells and control the weather. Is it nostalgia, or a "guns are cool" factor? Or "if war, then guns?" I don't get the need for them. I'm sorry to rant, but it's something I've had to get out there for a while.
  8. Quoting and brohoofing. Ponies don't even have fingers to pull the triggers, guys, and they're blatantly out of place. Either guns or ponies; they don't go together.
  9. HERP Navy lieutenant and navigator for the Solar Empire Slipstream, if you need it again.
  10. Sweet. If there's anything DM-y I have to post or edit, I can throw it on this tag.
  11. THAT DIDN'T LOOK LIKE A FUN GAME AT ALL D:
  12. avatar day, all day, every day

  13. Pegasus. I have literally wanted wings my whole life. During the caesarian my actual only thought was "man this would be better if I were flying."
  14. Awesome; one vote is more than none. D8 I'd try to keep it to one thread in Non-Pony Art and my tumblr; I'm just kind of scared of the Nuzlocke forums now and you guys seem to kind of like me a little so I feel a little safer starting off terrible and developing.
  15. YAY WALLGREENS GOT MY PRESCRIPTION IN. Good thing it wasn't /heart medication/ like my dad takes so I was just /crazy/ for a week and not having a slow heart attack. :I

    Is it a kitty or a grey? Kitty means Aisha, human looking thing means Grundo. i like this site way too much ssh
  17. It was my understanding that "brony" was slang for a fan of the show (like "Trekkie" or "Avatard" before James Cameron took that from us :I) and "the herd" is the blanket term for the fan collective. Could be wrong, though.
  18. Hungry but feeling ill... how to reconcile this... :Ia

  19. XD Like I said, it'll be bad at the start, and the last thing I want to do is get discouraged, so I just want to see if the idea is something people would follow. The original Pokemon: Hard Mode was stick figures, after all, though I have slightly more skill than that.
  20. So I do what I do best when I have a goal in mind. I was originally going to illustrate my Nuzlocke adventures(I can define it if you don't know what that is), but I might have alienated that forum by being clueless so I'm kind of scared to go back. The point is, would anyone be interested in following a Nuzlocke story in the Non-Pony Art section of the site, or is there little interest in that? Like I said, I kind of... have to have a goal in mind to finish anything, so "doing it for myself" is kind of difficult. ^^; Also: the art will probably be bad at the beginning. Fair warning. Grades will be unnecessary; I know it'll be bad. Part of it is practice forever, because a webcomic is like boot camp for art.

    I am agree on the old site being better. I just can't help but go back every now and then, play some games... ;; It was sort of a big part of my childhood and it makes me really sad to see what its become.

    Talk about your accounts here, if you have them. No lying. I've been on the site for almost 11 years now okay. I have no shame, but very little money for having been around so long. :T Edit 12 YEARS MY BADGE SAYS. Dayumn.
  23. Pikachu is eh. I got into the games pre-Pikachu-being-omnipresent and have never let go. I'd be different, but not dead.
