  1. Oooh, thank you! I had no idea widgets could be disabled like that. Unfortunately, "Recently discussed forum topics" is where I find most threads around here. It'd be nice if both could be separated, but if that's not possible because of IP.Board, I'll just live with it.
  2. I've been told that when I was about two years old, I once pointed in a random direction and said in the calmest possible way: "Man with no head!" To this day, no one--not even me--knows what the hell that meant.
  3. Anyone who wasn't at least somewhat raised in the Internet generation is going to have issues with it. Let's face it, everything changed around the year 2000. Parents who are behind the times are still around, and will be for another couple decades or so. Frankly, unless for some reason, they suddenly open their minds, there's really not much hope for them. We can only hope their children are intelligent enough to think for themselves. If that means they have to bypass aggressive parental controls, so be it. If it means hiding things from their parents, so be it. At least in my experience, more aggressive rules lead to more creative rule-breakers and rebelry... which is hardly a bad thing. Rebels built this country, after all. Children are the future. Let's hope for everyone's sake that they can still learn to think for themselves...
  4. I've finally made an RP! I just need people to join it! Please check it out! :Dhttp://mlpforums.com/topic/58956-love-of-a-changeling-romance-adventure/

  5. That's okay, thanks for letting me know. A lot of people don't even do that! ******* The first post has been edited to include more details.
  6. Oh, hello! You're in my bed and... wearing a gas mask? Are you insinuating something about my home, sir?
  7. @, I do prefer that each player have only one character. In my experience, playing multiple characters causes one to have to divide their attention. I know the GM has to do that, but that's necessary. I might allow characters of non-pony canon races to be played. I just have to consider how it might affect the outcome of the story I have planned. What did you have in mind? As for playable changeling characters, I honestly don't think it would work. In the story I have planned, you would have very little freedom in what your character did, and it probably wouldn't be any fun for you... unless you have some super creative idea that might fit in, in which case you are more than welcome to PM me about that.
  8. Might I suggest an option to remove specific threads from the "Threads I've Participated In" widget on the front page? There are some threads I like to just add my two cents to and leave them alone after that. Personally, I would prefer to not be notified when new posts are posted in those threads. If there is such a way to customize it that I'm unaware of, I do apologize. But if there's truly no way to "block" certain threads from appearing in that widget, is there any way to hide the widget altogether?
  9. Oooh, oooh, I rarely win anything, though I still have hope! Can I please, please, please enter? Your art is so beautiful! I'd so love to have a painting from you! Also I was wondering, how will we know we're on the list? I didn't see any of the people who posted here in the green list up there. Not that I'm rushing you, of course! I'm just wondering if it hasn't been updated yet, is all.
  10. The guy who posted that "question" to Yahoo calls himself "Jigglypuff Robs Banks." Second, he puts "CATHOLICISM" in capital letters. I smell a troll. Most likely, he was just trying to prove a point. Clever, but still a troll. Don't take it seriously. And if any unfortunate child has someone like that as a parent, I would like to have enough faith in the human race that such a child would be sensible enough to see those words for how ridiculous they are.
  11. Come with me, and let me show you wondrous things.

  12. RP Thread: http://mlpforums.com/topic/60619-rp-love-of-a-changeling/ ENTRIES ARE NOW CLOSED. If someone drops out (*looks suspiciously around*), I might open up a slot. Until then, no more entries are being accepted at this time. Sorry about that. ********** POSTING RULES (as of May 18, 2013): Please post at the very least once a week. Preferably more, especially in the early stages of the story. Please do not post again until three people have posted before you, or if three people have not posted since your last one, please wait until it has been two days (forty-eight hours) since your last post--this may be changed according to the level of activity. Remember, we're aiming for quality, not quantity here. Posts in quick succession are not nearly as important as the thought that is put into them. It's posted in the Advanced RP section, which requires at least 800 characters per post. Please let me know if that's going to be a problem. I'd really rather do this in the Advanced section, but let me know if it's simply impossible for you, and I'll see what I can do. Last rule... Have fun!! May your character shine! ********** I just clarified the story a little better. I've written a bit more below, so you can get a better idea of what to expect from the story. ********** Since Equestria saw the rise and fall of the Changelings, everything has, more or less, been at peace. Hopelessly defeated by the raw power of love, everyone assumed them to be gone forever. Some years later, the memory was almost completely forgotten. The Changelings were no longer considered a threat, and all had returned to normal. All is not as it seems, however. As everyone goes about their daily lives, no one has noticed the Changeling Queen silently working in the shadows all these years. The truth is that she never left at all, and she has no intention of staying hidden forever. The hive has secretly taken over Canterlot, and imprisoned the Royal Sisters, the Royal Guard, as well as the six Bearers of Harmony. This time, they're much better at hiding their true nature. Ponies hardly even notice a difference, thus no one suspects a thing. That's where you come in. A few ponies are seeing through the smoke and mirrors. Rumor has it that Chrysalis is hiding somewhere in Manehatten, controlling and expanding the invasion so slowly and quietly that no one will know until it's too late. Since the six Bearers of Harmony are missing, not even the Elements of Harmony will be able to stop Chrysalis; a new weapon must be devised, though it will only work if you can find it in time... ************ This RP will involve romance and shipping... lots of it. So be prepared. We will need a few OCs, some stallions, some mares. I'd like to keep a nice balance of each if possible, but know that the romances here are not limited to male-female pairings. Restrictions are the usual: no alicorns (they're overpowered), no Mary Sues (see here for a good description of what a Mary Sue is), and no godmodding or controlling others' characters. Please note that I may ask you to step back and revise your character. Rest assured, this is nothing personal. I've just wanted to do this particular story for a long time, and I'm a slight hopeless perfectionist. I will let you know if your character is accepted, and at that point, I will also add him or her to the list of slots. Here's a breakdown of slots: Slot 1: Flaire/F/Earth Pony, played by me. Slot 2: Alice Starling/F/Unicorn, played by (aka Alex Night). Slot 3: Sunset Sky/F/Pegasus, played by . Slot 4: Asnee Hoof/M/Earth Pony, played by @Sky Warden. Slot 5: Chiltide/M/Unicorn, played by . Slot 6: The Doctor/M/Time Lord Pony, played by . Slot 7: Peachy Pie/F/Earth Pony, played by . Changeling drone: Weaver, played by . I've added another slot. For new applicants, I'm looking for three different character types: A hard worker (kinda like Applejack) A happy-go-lucky, silly character (kinda like Pinkie Pie) A tsundere (a hot/cold, "I love you/I hate you" character; see link for a detailed description). I might accept different characters, but know that the above archetypes are really what I am looking for. Feel free to break the balance of male and female; gay couples can make for some very interesting conflicts between characters, and that's what I'm looking for--conflicts that make characters question their existence and opinions. Slots are subject to change, and openings may be added or removed, depending on interest. This is going to be a rather advanced RP, with a good amount of writing expected from those who participate--a paragraph per post at the very least. And of course, I am obligated to include a disclaimer that no public intimacy is to take place on the forum where it would be visible to everyone. That means implied, PG-13 romance is all that will be permitted.
  13. I get them every now and then. They're not much fun, I know. Just when you get them, remember that it's never as bad as you think. You just have to step back from the situation and look at it logically, and recognize the panicking for what it is.
  14. Lugia???? You're a little big for my room, much less my bed... please be gentle? :3 EDIT: Aaaaand somebody ninja'd me. And he needs to leave my bed now.

    Hi All

    Hiiiiii~~ Welcome to our little corner of the Interwebz. Also, your avatar is sooo cute... Now you have me in cuteness mode... I'm going to be posting cute things everywhere!
  16. I like these rules. Particularly... The audiophile in me says... this is win. All my brohoofs go to you.
  17. The first scene mentioned here really hit home for me. I've lost friendships, even family members over pointing out the truth, which sure enough, was proven to be true later. Yes, Twilight could have been more subtle about it, but ultimately, she did speak the truth. No one should be faulted for speaking the truth when it really needs to be said. I suppose what really gets to me is how I know I would do exactly as instructed... I would walk away from the wedding, never speak to any of them again, and watch the kingdom burn without remorse, for I would know I did what I could. Maybe I'm cynical, but you saw the reaction the rest of her friends gave her when she first returned with Cadence: they had already totally abandoned her for the spotlight of being a bridesmaid. I admit, Twilight is far stronger than I am in these matters. She's much more forgiving than I am... though it may have something to do with how my best friends--the ones I knew for years didn't give me an inch when it came to giving second chances. Funny thing though... later on, when those same people asked me why I couldn't give them a second chance, I told them I had learned from the best. I still refuse to speak to them, despite receiving several contact attempts. Am I a sad person?
  18. I got it, I got it! Okay, you ready for this? It's gonna blow your mind... Pocket Protector! ...okay that was lame. Um... yeah, I find coming up with a name to be the hardest part of making an OC.
  19. "What do you mean, Virginia???" Apparently Dragonzball P failed the "notability" test on KnowYourMeme, but I know it's a meme... so I'm just trying to "subtly" insert it in random places now to increase awareness. See, I told you I was silly!
  20. I'm not entirely sure if I understand the question... but if the choice is between a permanent dream or a super long nightmare, I'd take the dream any day. I've often wondered what it would be like to sleep forever and not be dead. Though in my experience, oversleep tends to turn into nightmares anyway... Can I have a nap instead?
