Missing out on a con kinda stinks. But working hard on prepping for future cons. Really trying my best to keep calm as deadlines are rapidly approaching though. I also havnt fully sorted out my transportation and thats got me kinda on edge.
>>43211094Glimmy!
>>43211094Write what's on your mind? Okay I fucking hate you all how's that?
I wanna bring Applejack a pitcher of ice-cold water late in the afternoon and then sit under a tree enjoying it together while she recovers from a long day of work.
>>43211111Hi sunfag!
>>43211107>But working hard on prepping for future cons.The con you missed? That was the last one.
>>43211114I hate you too you fucking poopdickschizo retard. Just because someone says something you don't like, that doesn't mean they're your schizo. Fucking kill yourself you nigger.
>>43211107I highkey need to figure out what cons there are in my area, especially with artist alleys. I wanna sell perler and woodcrafts and stuff.
Twilight Sparkle is best pony!
>>43211120Daww, who's the butthurt schizo? You are!
>You're muh poopdickschizo>No you're this penisfartschizo>Nuh uh you're assshitschizoGod that's all you fuckers talk about. This board is fucking terrible.
I want to purchase Welderanon's strongest welds at a convention.
>>43211130Then fuck off from the board, offboarder schizo. We know you're only here to shit up the board.
>>43211107I've never been to a convention of any kind... there's usually never anything in my area, and traveling to another country is too scary.
>>43211122Im kinda focused in on Mare Fair since Im working it. Neighcon seems interesting, but I just dont have the time or budget especially to go back to Baltimore after the last time I was there a crackhead drooled all over my life size celestia while walking down a line of smokers demanding money. Not begging mind you. I used to be open to other cons like anime and fur around me, but none of them scratch the same social itch. And the furries are too sex focused. I wouldn't hesitate to vend at a furcon though, fuckers got money. For ponies try mlpcon.info/for now, I'm focused on trying to build up a fun new cult. Which I'm sure my friends are getting sick of me talking about. >>43211137I meet tons of people who travel long distance for cons. It seems to be worth it. I know one dude whos coming all the way from isreal, and 4 from the uk.
>>43211155Much obliged.I do a lot of anime cons, personally. Def trying to go to Mag again next year, too. It's not pony, but it's still fun.>>43211137Doubling what other anon said. Flying out for cons is part of the experience.
>>43211107>Missing out on a con kinda stinksOh no, however will you go on without standing in line just to buy funko pops?
>>43211094I have never read a single MLP IDW comic

>>43211159your moms house
>>43211137>>43211155>>43211158You already have two convention advertisement threads. You don't need to shill here too.
>>43211166You lost, schizo. The 4chan mods make the rules and they allow the conventions to be anywhere.
>>43211130>lumping in asshitschizo with thishang yourself smegmahemorrhoidschizo

>>43211163>>43211164>>43211168Going outside is 2spoopy4sharty. Tell me about your favorite mares and why theyre your favorite, WITHOUT mentioning visual appeal, instead of feeding the trolls.
>>43211178>If you don't like my discord con you're from the shartyI don't care about your offboarder turf war pissing contest.
>>43211178She's very relatable, I love her style, and seeing her character arc was sweet. I wish she'd had more screentime with Starlight, though, instead of all of a minute.
back in my day we just called them "trolls", not the sharty or discord or schizos or ragebait or what have you
Do you actual faggots never NOT shit up a thread with the same "no u" sharty schizo sunfag shit?
>>43211182It's not the old day trolling either.
THIS ANON >>43211184 IS FROM THE SHARTY
>>43211181>>43211182Yeah but saying troll twice in once post didn't really sound right in my head. >>43211181>relatable>nice style>short time with StarlightMaud?
>>43211182They base their entire personalities around being part of their circlejerk, so they assume everyone who doesn't like them is part of some rival circlejerk. They're so full of themselves and they can't fathom someone just simply doesn't like them. It HAS to be a big ol conspiracy.
>>43211195 hereforgot to mention im trans btw
>>43211189Nah, Maud is anything but relatable. Or, uh, stylish. Think leather and spikes. This mare begins and ends the series single, but had a boyfriend before the show began.Also why the fuck is it boyfriend outside of the EQG setting and not coltfriend
>>43211184anon, the cunt shits it up himself because he has nothing better to do
>>43211185it would be if whores like you had some standardswhy would a troll spend his time developing a thought out and funny trolling strategy when you fellate him for any little old post?
>>43211184I only ever shit up threads I don't like.
>>43211195Strawberryfag! Hi Strawberryfag! I love you!
>>43211198Well, its more realistic for the human setting. >he wishes to have sexual relations with a human femaleOh Sweet Mother of Celestia
>>43211202Everyone takes the bait every time, they're starved for the cortisol
>>43211206Yeah, so why did Maud call mudbriar her boyfriend instead of coltfriend?To be fair she's technically a horse in a human female's body.Who's your favorite mare, anon?
>>43211111Wasted quints on vitriol, nice job faggot.
>>43211202>you fellate him for any little old post?It's simple: they have an inflated ego and NEED to argue with the person that disagrees with them. >>43211204I hate you and hope you accidentally step on an aids needle.
>>43211103Are you guys working on a new collab anytime soon?
>>43211215>Wasted quints on vitriolNah. Hate is the only thing that matters.
>>43211218I have no idea this is my first day on the board in a decade. Came back after finishing the series. Please enjoy a very vintage meme.We do have a new voiceanon who's taking a crack at Sunset stuff, though.>>43211220
>>43211212Wait fuck did she? It makes sense for the human world but in pony land, its writers being lazy. >whos my favoriteA Sun Horse of course of course
>>43211226>my first day on the board in a decadeCool. When are you leaving?
>>43211226>implying twilight wouldn't have the neckiest beard if she could grow one
>>43211229Yup. Scootaloo uses the term 'girlfriend' in a song, too, and Sugar Belle and Mac consistently use boy/girlfriend instead of mare/colt.What'd you think of her in s9? I kinda felt like she was OoC, but it was nice seeing more of her.
>>43211230You know, it would be easier to get rid of everyone you hate if YOU just left.
>>43211240I'm not taking the easy way out. Sorry faggot.
I'm convinced strawberryfag is just Zippers.
>>43211226>I have no idea this is my first day on the board in a decade.Why lie about this? No seriously though what is the purpose? You don't even have to keep lying about it, people will forget about this exchange the moment the thread dies.
>>43211249Swing and a miss.
>>43211238s1-3 twi? Probably. But once she's a princess? No way.>>43211257There's no reason I would lie about this. Because it's the truth? Is this a common thing that our local schizo does?I did my time in the mines, goddamn it. I have the ancient texts.
>>43211239Im a fairly consistent fan of the whole show. But I do rewatch the more comfy earlier seasons more often. Which kind of sums up how I feek about most characters. The only exception is the retirment arc and the finale. The retirment shit is just forced twily must be the only leader shit by people who refuse to acknowledge anything outside toy sales [and I could add in the political implications after having talked with some late season staff myself] The finale pissed me off more than anything else though, because of a long rant I'll have to find, but its specifically BECAUSE of Celestia and thats what hurt the most. Twilight was suppose to show the magic of friendship and become what Celestia wanted, not have Celestia as some final authority who refuses to acknowledge what the series has been leading up to.
>>43211261Nobody cares. You can post all the old images you want. Nobody fucking cares how long you've been using it and nobody cares how long you've been absent from the board. Nobody is impressed, you aren't special. Shut up.
>>43211265I want Maud to put that cigar out on my tongue.
>>43211264Fair enough. I dislike just about all of season 9, personally, and I felt like those things were the weakest aspects of the weakest season.What's an episode you would've loved to see about Celestia?>>43211265I didn't think I was~I was asked a question I couldn't answer, so I explained why I couldn't answer it.
>>43211265smoking is a filthy habitmaud would never smoke
>>43211268>~Yikes
>>43211268The freaky friday episode was exactly what I wanted more of. Just Celestia and Luna not being some autistic retards. An episode of Celestia doing her normal daily routine, and Luna working as well. Perhaps something could happen, resulting in Celestia having to do it because Twilight is busy saving the world. Instead of the episode of them trying to be useful and fucking it up, they actually ARE useful and we see Celly 1 shot an evil character who would have been a chellenge for a season 8 Twilight, just to show shes been strong this entire time, but needed twilight to get her shit together. The 1111 episode was a fun one for slice of life silly shit. Found the post: derpibooru.org/images/2777898
>>43211278Honestly that's a top 10 episode for me. It was really solid.That's... A lot, but honestly I can't disagree with it. I did think it was totally fucked up they just dropped a cupcake on em and called it good. The fact that a literal reformed villain was doing it was annoying, too. Like he got a chance to reform, so now he's not giving that same chance to those three? I literally thought Discord's original plan after the reveal was to reform them by making them be Friends. Nope, just a test for Twilight. I guess the finale kinda fucked up that whole friendship thing, too. They were getting along before, but we have to return to them yelling at eachother at the end for no reason.????And the fact that Celestia came in is literally proof positive that she doesn't believe in Twilight, and doesn't think she can really lead Equestria. That's fucking garbage. It'd be cool to have something like that, with Celestia going behind the scenes to keep things safe for Twilight to continue her studies and whatnot. Bring in an old g1 character, or the real grogar, or whatthefuckever. It would definitely go against the arc they were building to in s9, but fuck s9 in general, so that's fine.
>>43211264>[and I could add in the political implications after having talked with some late season staff myself]please do.
>>43211289Yeah pretty much all that. >>43211297Tldr: my conclusion ia that 75% of the later seasons being ass is hasbros fault. But the other 25% are a small group of writers and animators who believe all art is political, and to leave their mark on art they make then they MUST inject personal philosophy instead of keeping eith established works and quality. Part of this comes from the same situation the Halo tv show runs into: they want their own works and original creations, but execs never give them a chance so they are forced to work on 'popular thing' instead of their real passions. A lot of the mlp staff could make amazing independent shows and film if given the chance.

>>43211381I think we should, Idk, #savemylittlepony or something..
>>43211381What's with the gay Destiny robot? Why do DA artists feel the need to be THAT autistic?
>>43211289The trio deserved it because they hate ponies and only wanted to cause harm, but I agree Twilight should have had the final decision.
my mind right now:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfycQJrzXCA
IDW G5 kind of feels like it overcorrected for the Twilight favoritism of G4.In The Last Problem, Twilight has taken over the duties of both Celestia and Luna, duties that mentally exhausted them and they were two and can handle them just fine, She even has time to hang out friends, while Pinkie, for example, has seemingly given up her life as a party pony to be a housewife and can't even find someone to take care of her kid to spend some time out with her friends. She will live forever, or at least thousands of years, able to continue her pursuit of knowledge and her ridiculous school has been ridiculously successful.In G5's IDW comics we find out she then proceeds to have the twilighting to end all twilightings (most likely literally, considering we never see her or any of the G4 alicorns again), with her taking a page from Starlight’s and Cozy’s books, in a very failed attempt to stop ponies from being racist again, a problem she had successfully dealt with before, ruining her friends' lives and potentially killing a lot of creatures whose lives depended on magic in the process. In every way, even with the support of her friends, she failed.
>>43211445don't carenot canon
>>43211123True!>>43211162You're not missing much.
>>43211123False!>>43211162You're missing a lot.
>>43211445Its kind of a shame because I kind of liked the g5 movie, imagine the same movie but instead of it being G4s future, G4 was instead a legend and sunny is so inspired that the rest of the movie happens. It doesnt have to be connected, the previous generations where not. But marvels cinematic universe shit poisoned media for a long while. I quite like Pipp and Zipp overall.
>>43211505>imagine the same movie but instead of it being G4s future, G4 was instead a legend and sunny is so inspired that the rest of the movie happens.there is genuinely nothing in the movie to say it isn't a legend. they left it vague, probably on purpose.the MYM episode with the twilight hologram mindfucked so many people.
>>43211529I read through the first scene and.. yeah the part I thought was a reference never explicitly said it. Well shit. That explains why Im chill with the movie.
>>43211593I think this guy figured out almost exactly what went wronghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vQT84fEhOA

Everything hes said lines up almost exactly with the little rumors and tidbits Ive heard.
