Done.

Speaking of potentially disturbing MLP related images, I decided to man up and go to ponychan.

I'm honestly shocked. It is a pretty great community, and I have not yet seen anything to make me regret visiting. Although, I would still be wary of which forums you enter. However, I've seen a few threads that have been labeled NSFW, and avoided those. I have no idea the nature of the label; the rules of the site forbid anything of a sexual/pornographic nature. But I'm not taking any chances.

Also, the lay-out is INCREDIBLY confusing for those who are unfamilair with 4chan, or similar websites.

But I have seen some very cool/funny pictures there, and it seems to be populated by a good group of general MLP enthusiasts.

Oh grow up, it's not that ba-...OH DEAR GOD, NO!

That's the trick, just stay away from NSFW, and you'll be ok.

I'm so happy my computer took the forsight to fail on my behalf, preventing me from seeing whatever that was.

Seems to be a cool place alright : )

Oh yeah, and my video is on there somewhere, since it is more appropriate in a pony oriented forum.

See if you can guess which one it is : P

I'm going to have to wait to get on the computer, I'm still on my tablet. I still need to finish touhou 13 on lunatic.

The picture wasn't that bad.

I have no idea what that is, but it sounds intense.

They're these games from japan, they're side scrolling shooter games

They're kinda intense, but, I love the characters.

Dakka has a Pony thread!?!

Seen an episode now, and aye, I can see why folks would like it. Lauren Faust once again proves she can make a kids show that has some appeal for adults.

The episode I saw was about Applejack collecting apples from an orchard. Saw a few pop culture references that forced a chuckle, and I can see just from the couple of brief appearances in that episode why folks would love the Pinkie Pie chatacter.

As I thought previously, its just your typical cartoon, with enough effort to make it interesting for adults watching. If my brothers daughters where a little younger I am sure he'd have told me how awesome this show is, as much as he used to rave about Spongebob a couple of years ago.

Looking forward to whatever Faust comes up with next, I'd love to see her take on the superhero genre if I'm honest as I was a fan of Fosters.

Yes.

Well, that's an endorsement if ever I heard one. Might give this colourful horse thing a go after all.

Do it, htj, and you will be hooked. Addicted. It's worth it, but fair warning to you.

Anyways, back on topic.

How did you guys start watching the show? I started because I just wanted to know what the fuss was about.

I appreciate the tasteful (and awesome) images, but remember to keep them relevant and on-topic please : )

I cannot believe this is being taken seriously.

What do you mean?

I have to point out, Karon, that as much as people like this show.... It's still grown men watching a show for little girls. Pretty sure most "bronies" don't actually take it that seriously (though I'm sure, as in all things, there are a handful who go too far).

Good point, RatBot.

RatBot wrote:...there are a handful who go too far.

As with everything.

But even to the people who really love it that much, I don't really mind. Why should I care? They're not hurting anyone.

Right. And while "too far" is a matter of opinion most of the time anyway, at worst those guys spent $5 a piece on little plastic ponies to pose with them for whatever reason. Whooo.

GW expects you to pay 20 bucks a piece on little resin ponies being ridden by vampires.

Oh snap. There it is.

What do you mean by seriously? Do you mean we're only watching it because it's so bad it's good? In which case that's false, we watch it because it's a legitimetely good show.

All I know, is that when a pony is no longer shaped like a pony, it gets bad. And now, I direct you to an ObnoxiousD**cheAlt Prouduction:

Somewhat NSFW, depending on your boss.

*Have not opened spoiler*

I only ever care when ponies are illustrated pornographically. On par with pedophillia to me, but that is only my opinion.

But really, lets not even go where I think this thread might be going.

And to clarify, I've nothing against furries.

What I meant to convey, is that I hate it when characters who are young/innocent are put into those situations.
