Sound Barrier

Being part of the Furry Fandom since 2004 I'm well aware of Balto's popularity. But man I expect Sonic fans to be this bad (from my experiences with them that is), but not Balto. That's awful Breezie, I'm really sorry to hear that. Was the site always like that, or has it become more and more unpleasant over time?

It became more unpleasant as the trolls/hackers "took over" so to speak, and starting giving homosexuality a really bad name because the usually just used it for trolling purposes. Like they'd make crack pairings just to make people mad. It really doesn't make me mad, but a lot of people on Balto Source get extremely sensitive over it.

I may disagree with your opinion good sir, but I will defend your right to have that opinion anytime, anywhere. That's tolerance folks. Something we desperately need in these times from all walks of life.

 

That's exactly what i mean by tolerance. ^^^^ ;-; well done, Sir.

merp

Yeah, i think i'm gonna do that. I didn't even realize it was that bad, i just thought it was a bunch of trolls being stupid, I never thought it would be hackers. Thanks you guys, for listening. I just had to vent that out. XD

That's totally fine, everyone has the right to their own opinion. But like you said, you wouldn't ever tell anyone to leave the fandom because of it.

ooh it makes me so mad, but I realize that you're right. If i had the power to justify this I would. Urrgh but i'm like one of those people who hates to sit and watch things get bad.

But what if the owner was getting money for it? The site, I mean? Wouldn't it be his property then?

Oh god you guys. Thankfully i have this site.. It's so beautiful. ;_;

Get get this. This is the reason why the Mod's hands are tied. And it's SCARY.

The popular artists/flamers/trolls who basically patrol and run the site (as opposed to the Site Owner himself and the Mods) have connections with a hacker who threatens to bring the fansite to rubble if any of the trolls are banned or something.

Noww I feel like i'm in one of those cities that a ran by gangs or something. Can't the owner get those trolls arrested? Is it really so complicated? D: I don't like this AT ALL.

WTF a Balto fansite full of rude and closed-minded people?

 

I didn't even know that there was a Balto fanbase on the Internet.

 

Then again, I can imagine why you'd hang out on there if it's literally the only source of Balto fans in existence.

 

But... have you considered just dropping it? I mean, half of the appeal of a fanbase is to feel like you're in community with these people. But obviously you're not. They are disrespectful towards you, so why bother showing off your love for Balto to a group of people who won't even appreciate it?

 

Once again, it's really the only fansite on there, and i feel like it has potential to be a lot nicer. And i'm hoping there are changes, but it's whatever. I feel like leaving would be like giving up and letting the flamers win. I guess I'm just being stubborn.

I do agree on this, but it rarely happens (Or im going blind) and when it does it usually ends fast.

 

This is because bronies themselves are classified as homosexual in society's eyes, which is why they backlash when someone calls them gay :/

Though i think the forums overall are ok, sometimes fun and i know it has its flaws, but its defiantly not on my worst forums list

 

I see fights on that site all the time. :/ And I don't go on the forums there much. But I didn't mean Bronies on the intolerance towards homosexuality, I meant the Balto Source people being intolerant towards homosexuality. I don't get it. I think Bronies are very tolerant about it. I don't have anyone messaging me on here telling me to quit the site because I ship a certain pairing, or because my OC is a homosexual, or because I am, you know?

I have to agree with everyone here. The site sounds neat, because of Balto. Love Balto... but the members make it sound like it's not a very fun, or nice, site.

 

It's not. ;_; But it's the only one around, which sucks. I wish I could make my own. It would be a lot nicer.

I'm sorry people are being so hurtful toward you! That's just awful! I can understand people getting upset over explicit content, but love is innocent and beautiful. I don't see why some people are so offended by homosexuality.

 

Exactly, exactly. </3 Thank you.

Exactly! According the the guy I'm arguing with on there, the mods' "hands are tied" along with the site owner's. Which makes NO sense to me. I asked him for an explanation and I've yet to get one from him. :/

Oh gosh Twi, that's really nice of you ;_; And I've been having an awful day to begin with because my best friend left for college today, so this isn't helping at all. Balto Source <--- that's the site, and it's really well ran and organized but the members and moderation is just awful. My username there is Kema. Most of the hate I've been getting is in my private messages, and I'm trying my best not to fight with anyone on there, cause I just don't like fighting in general. But yep, that's it. Good luck, soldier. XD

Honest question: if that community is so full of dickbags, why do you even subject yourself to it? Seems like it would be much easier to just ditch them and stick with DA or some other place that isn't as anti-whatever.

I do stick to DA but DA isn't really a Balto fansite or anything. My Balto stuff will get more recognition on there as opposed to Deviantart, you know?

oh my goodness. I have no idea if this is even the right place to put this

but oh my goodness.

I need to rant, right now.

Okay, so other than the MLP fandom, I'm apart of the Lion King fandom, as well as the Balto fandom, and then various anime fandoms.

I've been drawing a lot of Balto related stuff lately, and I post them to my account on Balto Source, probably the biggest Balto fansite ever.

But this site... I can't even begin to describe how much it enrages me. It's a shame it's the only big fansite for Balto around, and if I could make my own fansite to rival against it I swear I would.

People fight on there CONSTANTLY over NOTHING, homosexuality is barely tolerated, and the site is basically ran by popular artists who can tell you to do whatever they want. One of the popular artists actually has some popular MLP art, too, but I'm not gonna mention her name. But she's a big troublemaker that should have been banned YEARS ago. However, she got her popularity through Balto Source, so...

It's just awful. I have some homosexual fan characters on there and I got a whole essay from some close minded ass about how the homosexual stuff LEADS to smut art (which i barely even see on there) and that I should leave and go to deviant art. Like WHAT THE HELL? And being gay myself, all this anti-homosexuality stuff really really hurts me. And they have like "cutest couple contest"s and it's against the rules to have any homosexual characters, and the guy who's messaging me to post my stuff elsewhere isn't even putting up a good argument anymore and I'm just really, really pissed off. And it's hard to get me pissed off.

This is why i love the MLP fandom the most out of all the other fandoms. Love and tolerance.

Are any of you guys on this site? If so I'd love to like, be friends with you on there. The site REALLY needs more love and tolerance. REALLY.

winner

I only want Rarity to be shipped -- if it had to be anyone. I adore Sparity. Other than that it would just be me screaming "NOO GOD! NO. GOD. PLEASE. NO. NO!!!"

Yep. Don't touch Dashie, don't touch Fluttershy, don't touch AJ, don't touch Twily, or Pinkie. Just NO.

Thanks so much you guys.

Andddd some rage art for you all

you can tell by how its rushed and by how much i loathe it. lol

I'll actually post up some nicer drawing for you guys once my rage fest is over. kjhdgsfgfghf

NATHAN'sss!!! Ahhh Nathan's Nathan's Nathan's!!! Their motto is right when they say "Not Only The Best Hotdog" they literally have the best EVERYTHIINGGG.

Ugh I wish there was one around my town... Hahaha, I'm craving it now. *whine*

Five Guys comes close, too. Unff those burgers.

Thanks so much! I drew Rock Candy again.. but i'm not really happy on how it came out ;_; Kinda went overboard with this new blending brush I downloaded. ;_;

OH GOD haha i remember when Rainbow Dash saved the baby in the Mysterious Mare Do Well.

http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=kkyQ392Oe6c

I laughed a little too hard at 00:43 XD

I mean that face on the baby, it's so blank, i just couldn't stop laughing, and the eyes were so beady and small... XD

I dunno, i have a theory that the alicorn gene only shows in females. I'm taking a guess that she's gonna be an alicorn, and I personally don't mind. On alicorns, I think it's simply a scarce breed.

Or maybe she isn't Cadence and Shining's daughter at all -- perhaps she's just a random royal family member, haha. Although she DOES look a lot like Cadence.

Got a bit off topic, but I suppose there ARE more Alicorns out there.

Can you draw my ponysona? Her ref is in my signature! (she's not Breezie, by the way. Breezie is simply a fan character of mine)

Okay, I guess I'll have to say plot holes? Is that what I should call them? Like where the hell did Cadence and Blueblood come from? Why isn't Blueblood or any other male royalty (the Princefrom the Hearts and Hooves Day spell book) an alicorn? Who are Luna and Celestia's parents, if they have parents anyway? Who's the third royal brother/sister who had Cadence, or Blueblood?? I don't know, little things like that. Other than that I love the show.

Here's another one of my crazy theories-- probably wont happen, but it's just a guess!

Skyla is Cadence and Shining's daughter, and maybe she'll be around the same age as Pumpkin Cake and Pound Cake.

Maybe after a lot of episodes, when the original cmc finally get their cutie marks, they pass down the club to the younger three? But then they're upset that all their adventuring is finally over... So they actually decide to stay in the club too, and help the three younger fillies get their cutie marks, so that they're never teased by other fillies the way they were by Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon?

(kind of a run-on sentence, I apologize.)

I have no idea, haha.

EDIT: oh, and once again this is enforcing my theory on how I think the Alicorn gene only shows up in females.

She looks awesome, thank you so much!!! keep it up, I can't wait to see more from you!!!

 

your pony (the one in your sig or avie?)

 

this one, haha XD vvv

And she's supposed to look a bit scruffy, and her ears are like a night pegasi's.

I haven't been diagnosed with ADD but sometime's I'm almost positive I have it. Ever since I was little, my teachers having been telling my parents to get me checked for it. I don't know, really. I don't know if this also counts as a "dysfunction" but I'm exposed to tuberculosis, which can be good, because although I carry it, I can't give It to anyone, and I'm not affected by it, but every five years I have to be put on medication for a year. But that's it, nothing big.

Think you can draw my Ponysona? Her ref is in my signature below thanks so much! Unless you have too many requests already, and if so that's totally fine. thanks again!
