>>43453228writefag's postin parts of it in the anonstallion fred as he writes them, come join us in enjoying the kino
>>43453395>in the anonstallion fredAnswered the question before I could even ask. Guess I know where I'll be hanging out now.
Like 10+ years ago there was a robot pony thread which went on for like 2-3 threads. One story was a robocop style thing where Anon died but his brain was transplanted into a new body: Rainbow Dash.Besides the basic setup it was abandoned after a few tens of posts sadly.
>>43452753A lot of smut. And actual story besides smut.
>>43453552Try asking PTFG.
>>43453782Nah, it's not that valuable. I just wish that it was continued.
>>43453848Was it ever binned or is it only in desu?
>>43453855I don't remember it being binned. And it's maybe 20 posts total.
>>43453906Find it and share with the thread :)
>>43453914Nah. I'm busy scraping the webarchive for lost greens.I'm missing about ~3200 pastes which was ever posted here.
>>43453982Oh, dang. Let us know what you find, friend.
>>43453990It will be on ponebin. So far out of 175 pastes 10 were found. It's not much, but it's something.Some more could maybe be restored from desu, but that's a lot of manual work. And I doubt AI is good enough to detangle the mess from the early high traffic threads, and collect contents. Even when I try to do it manually it's hard or impossible. In the early days people just posted anonymously without even tagging the previous parts of their story or posting a pastebin link. They maybe posted it in the middle of the story, etc. Or in a separate post.I posted a few times how to submit lost&found stuff, but only got two submission in 6 years, one with the correct format, the other is unusable.I have a few more archives which could hold some pastes which is not on the site but none of them are processable (missing paste IDs).
>>43454035On a younger 4chan, you could've crowdsourced anons to scour the archives. Now you need machines to do it. Grim.
>>43454381I assume there is at most 300 active posters on the board currently. And all of them are pretty toxic so noting really gets done.
>>43454622Sad if true
>>43454622>And all of them are pretty toxicBut nonny, I love (You)!
>>43454622I'm not toxic anon! I love ponies, and I think if you love ponies too then you're pretty neat.
>>43455593seconded. maybe half the anons are toxic, the other half (at least) are cool.
>>43452753It's not finished. The first chapter is still worth it imo. It peaks early.
>>43454622I am toxic, yeah. Suck it up, nerd.
>>43454622Vast majority of anons aren't toxic at all. It's just the few terminally online ones who post the most. They're full of anger because there's nothing else in their lives and they also have mental issues.Most people lurk a few threads and rarely leave those and also rarely post.
>>43454622To reinforce my point see the replies for >>43455821 and the >>43436556 post.
>>43456654Grim. Grim post, grim thread, grim reality. Grim.
>>43454035>So far out of 175 pastes, 10 were found. It's not much, but it's something.Do you have a list somewhere of all the missing pastes?I'm busy with some other projects, but I can try to look for them starting next week.
>>43454622Name one thing wrong with being toxic.
>>43457319It's easy
>>43457326And?
>>43457330You said one thing. Now you ask for two? I guess the green thread is where you should stay to up your reading comprehension
>>43457332That isn't what "and?" means in this context you retard.
>>43457334>That isn't what "And?" means in this context, you retard.FTFY. Your grammar needs work as well. Next OP will have to include basic English writing principles as well.
>>43457340I accept your concession. Perchance.
>>43457341Anon, it seems you can't differentiate between an argument, in which concessions are made, and a casual conversation. Unfortunately, I fear this may not be remedied with simple language instruction.
>>43457347Nah, I'm right.
>>43457347
>>43457340>Next OP will have to include basic English writing principles as well.Oh hey, that's a good idea. I'll add https://www.gutenberg.org/files/37134/37134-h/37134-h.htm to next thread.>inb4 IP grabberIt's the link to Elements of Style on the Project Gutenberg site. I think it's a good resource for all the run-of-the-mill writing advice you find on the internet.
>>43457299I do have one, will post it when it's finalized. I now have 2986 paste IDs missing which can't be found on IA.I'm currently trying to scrape all the userpages to discover even more, then do another round of paste scraping. This won't reduce the number of missing pastes (it will actually increase it...) but I will be able to potentially provide some metadata for some (author, title), and potentially recover some more which was never posted here (eg if something was split into chapters).Scraping is complicated as pastebin changed format quite a few times and all needs custom code to process them. Plus IA limits you to one request every 3 sec, so a scraping run takes a day or two sometimes.I don't want to publish it currently because the mirror/development DB is a mess (deduplication failed spectacularly and many pastes show up 4+ times with the same title and content, thanks windows/unix line endings and mojibake). Some pastes could be recovered from the site itself (eg some other Anon already archived it, there are quite a few cases of this, I know about 75 such cases).I will make a submission page, so it will be easier to send stuff. It will definitely not be ready by next week, sorry.Btw, the end result was 214 pastes recovered from the first run. Not all of them are pony related, but the majority is.
>>43457370>It will definitely not be ready by next week, sorry.No problem, I have other /mlp/ projects, so I can keep busy.If you can do it, that would be great. I know I can't prove it and it's only the word of an online faggot, but I'm invested in this, so I'll definitely at least try to do my best.
Since we're talking about lost pastes, I might as well share my small /lmt/ victory and say that a lost Moon Dancer green I was looking for, written by Slasher Science, was found recently. He apparently saw my one of my posts in the archive and decided "Yeah, I can repost that green."Here's when Slasher noticed one of my old posts:https://desuarchive.org/mlp/thread/43275128/#43356594
>>43457503>Slasher SciencePut it up on ponepaste with the title "Slasher Science - Dream Annotation". In the paste link the desu posts.
Midnight Bump, let's pray OP figures out how to write again
Don't die on me now
>>43457408I just noticed after 24+ hours of scraping and 16k downloaded pages that I fucked up the script. Web archive returns every url which starts with the query, not just exact matches. And in the list there was "anon" so every pastebin user starting with "anon" got downloaded. Okay, not that big of an issue. But there is an user named "e". So it started downloading every user starting with "e"... FML. I had to start it over.
Liteeracy is dead
Newfag discovers a good RGRE green, achieves enlightenment>>43459700
it feels like these days i'm lucky if i can force myself to get a few pages out. i think i just need to stop fucking off in my downtime and tunnel hard into writing again, those two longform greens aren't going to finish themselves. any other writefags struggling with the same thing?
>>43460115>i think i just need to stop fucking off in my downtime and tunnel hard into writing again, those two longform greens aren't going to finish themselves.Me to a T
>>43460115Sort of. The reason for my "abandoned" greens are because I just don't have any ideas of what to write next. Like, I get a great idea and then start writing and posting it, and then by the next week I lose interest and I'm /forcing/ myself to write. That's when the green truly dies. Now I've been shitting out shorts every now and then. Such is the life of no outlines and spontaneous ideas.
>>43460115I'm washed and probably won't write anything longer than a few posts ever again.
>>43460115My problem is wanting to do other things, too, that I just end up doing nothing.
>>43460115I can write fine once I'm writing, I just have a ton of resistance in regards to getting myself to start writing. Keep telling myself I have to do something else first and I never get to the writing.
>>43452531Post guides.I can only write prose.
>>43461530Green is like prose, except>No linebreaks>No periods>Second-person is the norm>Can be as choppy as you like>Outline level, evenPOV dialogue is always in plaintext>All other dialogue is greenNeed more info? Lurk moar.
>>43461530>>43461739Just don't do novel-length lines like they do in the anonstallion thread. Proper greentexts' lines are brief like: https://ponepaste.org/3646
>>43461530Make sure it's long enough to give the characters some depth so the readers can relate to them and care about them. And so you can fit in some descriptions.It's a very freeform format with almost no strict rules. Lines are>impliedand that's about it. What the other guy said is mostly true but you can add periods if you want to.
>>43462187You can avoid this advice if you have 0 OCs. Half the appeal of fanfiction is that people already have an emotional connection to the characters.
>>43461530Green is just prose with > and lower standards
>>43460115>any other writefags struggling with the same thingEyup.>>43460553This... whenever I stop it's due to some distraction, and then it gets hard to get back into it again.
>>43461760I don't mind the novel length greens since barely if any are being made so those long greens satisfy the lack of greens being made on the board.
>>43463444Check'd, but I won't read pony prose disguised as greens ever. Sorry, I just won't!

>>43468205>each line is a full paragraphOh gosh. That's some very nice use of language, but it's not really in the green format. Still nice to read though.
>>43468994how many more
I wrote a couple of small greens a while back (March and April) that I thought were decent, but they got no (You)s.Maybe one of you anons can take pity on me and tell me why they were shit:https://desuarchive.org/mlp/thread/43173194/#43175861https://desuarchive.org/mlp/thread/43107278/#43145960Anyone else ITT got any greens, big or small, that they'd like to see get a second chance, a shot at redemption?
>>43470537Nothing necessarily bad about them, both are decent. >>43175861 was cute and humorous which fits for a prompt thread. As for >>43145960 it wasn't really flutterrape, and I couldn't find it being posted in another thread as mentioned. But really, there's no logic to how many (You)s you'll get, it's mostly down to a few anons feeling like reading or not. And don't take it personal, that's just the board being slow. Oh and keep in mind that if you write lewd stuff, there's a likelihood that the anons that DO read it, just bust a nut and move on without needing to comment on it.As for my greens, I've only saved a few on ponepaste but I'm okay with them being looked over, they're pretty niche save for one in particular about a jaded twilight
>>43470537For the first, it's sad, but I believe that prompt threads are so fucked by the usual suspects that most gave up on them after a quick look.
>>43461530Writing green unironically makes you better at prose. You start to focus on the essential bullet points you want to hit in your writing, you get a better sense of tempo, your dialogue gets snappier since it looks dumb when your characters ramble for paragraphs, the only real problem is remembering how to not write in second person.
>>43471201>your dialogue gets snappier since it looks dumb when your characters ramble for paragraphsI still feel like I can't write dialogue to save my life, I just can't imagine a conversation in a way "normal" people would talk so I only ever write about weird interactions between characters
>>43471651Usually better to have interesting dialogue than normal dialogue imo. Especially with pones.The trick to good dialogue imo is to remember to put aside your goals as a writer and focus more on the individual goals of the characters. Pinkie in particular is tricky because the things that she finds important in any discussion are probably not going to be what others find important. The problem with "millennial/marvel dialogue" is mainly that every character sounds exactly the same. They don't bring unique perspectives to anything. This doesn't mean you spam meme phrases, you just try and keep the background and motivations of a character in mind. Well, loosely in mind, you also don't want to have your character remind everyone about their tragic backstory every time they open their mouth. Don't make it explicit, just have them lean slightly one way or another on different topics.Rarity is a good example, she's an easy character to flanderize with "dress, gems, darling, oh no I stained my BLOU-OU-OUUUUSE" obvious types of lines that often feel kind of disconnected from the story. When she's written well she's written from the motivations behind all that. She always wants other ponies to be feeling their best. This is why she pairs well with Pinkie (who has a similar motivation, although wanting people to 'feel happy' isn't the same as 'feel your best') and doesn't pair very well with Rainbow (who is almost always feeling on top of the world). She's also got an interesting combination of traits in that she's always certain that she's right and wants to get her own way, while also preferring to solve problems via "low-status" maneuvering. Rarity vs. Blueblood is the ultimate example of this causing conflict, because whereas most low-status characters like Fluttershy would just tolerate his bullshit, and most confident characters like Rainbow would put their hoof down immediately, Rarity is stuck trying to solve a problem against somepony who is immune to all of her usual tactics. It's almost like a Seinfeld or Curb Your Enthusiasm episode, where the problem could be solved instantly by either letting it go or addressing it directly, but unfortunately the protag is simultaneously petty and bound by social convention.But I digress. Dialogue. If you think your dialogue is "weird" it might be because you're focusing too much on characters expositing the information they need in order for the story to progress. Write it so that they're following their own natural motivations to learn more, help others, etc. If you need to get Twilight involved in some hijinks, present an opportunity to learn something new. If you need Rainbow on board, present an opportunity for awesomeness. Don't have them talk unless they have something to say. And it might feel silly but it can help if (You) do voices. Applejack in particular, she's a bitch to write in text but if you say her lines out loud you can find that flow.
>>43457408It is done.https://poneb.in/submithttps://poneb.in/missing-pastesA low hanging fruit is pastes from The_Shermanator because https://poneb.in/u/NotSherm seems to have it, but it is not split by chapter like how it was originally posted.There are a lot of authors on the missing list which don't seem to have any pony pastes. I have deleted quite a few (like half the list already...) but still there are more.In the far future I plan to set up an LLM to go through all pastes and mark those that are most likely not pony related, automatically check desu if it was posted there, then delete dem after manual verification. But going through thousands of them will still be hell.
>>43472336Thanks for your work, Anon.As I said, I'll start looking into it too.I'll be busy this weekend, but will focus on it from Monday.
>>43472347Thank you in advance.Oh I have another idea: I could add a link to paste IDs which were found in desu, so it makes it easier to track down.This will require like 2 days worth of desu scraping. Plus writing the code. So I probably won't be able to finish it during the weekend.I also skipped deduplicating paste versions to get this out quicker. There a ton of paste versions which only differ by for example the type of newline being used (windows/unix style) or a newline at the end, or character encoding issues. I found a few which have 4 versions when it should only have a single one. It's more complicated to get rid of these than it sounds.

>>43472493
>>43457355>Elements of StyleI read a lot of "How to write" books when I first started writing greens. This is one of the best ones I ever came across, particularly for newer writers that are looking to avoid making mistakes that clearly mark them as an amateur, like, mixing up your tenses, using incorrect grammar in dialogue tags, or using the wrong version of words that sound similar---like there and their.>That's there pen. Put it over their.The book I have has the extra chapter at the end, written by E.B. White, which also has good advice in it. White was actually a student at Cornell and had attended some of Strunk's creative writing classes.
>>43470537Ok, for the first one I got bored of the dialogue after the second post because it's too much and doesn't really go anywhere. The tone also felt off from the OP and personally I don't like the characterization of ponk, though I hate reading any M6 greens for that very reason.For the second story I agree with >>43470640, it's not /fr/, so you won't get any (You)s because of that. Shoulda posted it in /aie/ and lurk'd moar.
>>43452531I need to know, how some on you guys keep actually having a decent work ethic when writing your greens? I seem to be forever unable to finish one story because I keep trying to jump to the next.
>>43472619
I have way too many ideas about what to write. If only even a few of them were about what needs to happen next instead of being scattered scenes summertime in the future if the story or even totally unrelated.
>>43474540*sometime in the futureFuck autocorrect and phoneposting. But, gotta make do with what you have on the go.
>>43474467I defer to Mandroid. I can't finish a green to save my life.
>>43474467The trick is to write even when you don't want to. If I feel the kick of motivation come in after 10 minutes of writing, then I can write for an hour or two, or until I hit a mental roadblock. If after 10 or so minutes (of NO distractions btw, that includes time spent on your phone) I still don't feel like it, I let it be for the day. Just get yourself to try at least once per day, or whenever you have the time>>43474540Write those scenes, the worst you can do is to just keep them to yourself. You don't have to group them into the actual story, but you should write them to let your brain move on to something else.
>>43473761are you natekiggers?>>43470657that could be. I personally like prompt threads, for the most part; some are definitely shit (like when the "Hi, Anon" meme got spammed.) but sometimes you get a lot of (You)s in prompt threads; the most successful green I ever did was written in one. another successful green, one I didn't write, was jaded actress twilight---i thought that one got a lot of (You)s as well, and that was a prompt thread green.it really feels like a roll of the dice sometimes as to whether something you post gets read or not.>>43470640>it wasn't really flutterrapeYou think so? It has Rarity raping Anon, she's just using a puppet to do it. I guess he does kind of consent to it after a while, but there are a lot of Flutterrape stories where that happens too, and it essentially stops being rape.>t. has written and read a lot of Flutterrape>jaded twilightjaded actress twilight? I remember that threadI wrote the prompt that spawned the green itt; I was so fucking happy someone wrote something based on it
>>43475960>like when the "Hi, Anon" meme got spa-Don't make her say it.
>>43475960>are you natekiggers?No. Why would I?>It has Rarity raping Anon>there are a lot of Flutterrape stories where that happens>>t. has written and read a lot of FlutterrapeThat does not sound like Flutterrape at all. What are you reading?
>>43475960Hi Anon is kino.
>>43475837I'd love to write just those scenes, but they would make almost no sense and have no emotion in them.I'll just have to tough it out and get to writing when I get home and have time. Cons are fun but time consuming.
Bump
>>43472376>>43472347Added the desu search scraping/feature, there is now an additional column on the missing pastes page. It will take a while for it to populate. It updates every hour or so.
bump
>>43478761Hey, Anon.Just to make sure, "Down From the Stars" is in the missing pastes list.Checking the archives, it started here:https://desuarchive.org/mlp/thread/20679329/#q20695097And ended here:https://desuarchive.org/mlp/thread/21132590/#q21171613If someone created a paste with all the parts of the green, would this be considered valid or not (because the author could have potentially added more that he didn't post on the board, or not have the same format in the actual paste, etc.)?
>>43479842>would this be considered validSince that is the best we can do, yes it is valid.The goal is not to have 100% accuracy with these, that would be impossible. Except if someone finds an additional archive which eluded my attention.
>>43479842>>43479923Btw, feel free to add a header to the paste content itself too, something like "recovered from this and that".
>>43477591Think about the steps needed to get there, then think about cool scenes that would allow those steps to happen. Don't write boring scenes to get to the good shit, find ways to make the good shit set things up for future payoffs of good shit.Alternatively, think about what you don't need. In my perpetually "yes I am still working on it" longfic I had this huge action setpiece planned out that was going to be set in an AU version of the Wonderbolts Academy episode, and I just couldn't fit the setup into the rest of the story, at least not without going "and then RD just fucked off to train with the bolts for a while I guess" and completely fucking the pacing. Then I realized I didn't need to actually set it at the academy at all. Rather than send RD off I could just pull LD into the story and it would play out almost exactly the same. It's an obvious solution, but because the initial seed of that idea was "do an AU Wonderbolts Academy", it didn't occur to me for a long while that I could just take all the shit I actually wanted to write about and do it without the academy setting. And that actually allowed me to come up with a way better introduction for LD than would've been possible with my original idea. Often I will set about writing A > B > C only to realize that most of C works way better if it comes before B and I don't even need A at all.So take a look at the scenes you want to write and ask what's essential about them, what specifically are the bits that you really want to dig into? And then ask how those bits would work in another context, maybe even with different characters. In the same fic I had a scene that was taking fucking forever to write due to needing Twilight to convey a shitload of exposition while also keeping the scene fun and interesting enough to not make readers die of cringe at the sheer amount of autism I was asking them to swallow. What I ended up doing was I erased pretty much all of the work I had done and rewrote it from Rarity's pov instead of Rainbow's. I'm still not 100% happy with it but I think it ended up working way better because instead of being in the head of the character doing all the irreverent comic relief shit, you're in the head of a character that's torn between paying attention to the exposition and paying attention to the chaotic bullshit going on around her. At the time I was really hesitant since it was such a bitch to write I really didn't want to do it again, but it was way easier the second time and I had so much more control over the tone. That's definitely something to try if you're not feeling a scene is carrying the right emotion.
>>43480697I can skip some parts, but I can't go from "Anon is currently freeing Celestia from between realities so she and Luna can fix things" to the climax of "Luna and Celestia face off against the antagonist while Anon watches"It's also a CYOA so that limits my freedom somewhat. But, I'm mostly just complaining for the sake of keeping the thread bumped while away from home and unable to write. No, I will not write on phone. That sucks ass.
>>43481205>It's also a CYOAthen those shits should be grateful for what they get.
>>43481616It's my own standard that keep me from cutting corners. The readers/players wouldn't care too much, I think.
>>43478519Carrot Top really needs to stop reading her degenerate human x pony smut out in public like that
>>43479842>>43479923Submitted it. I'll look into others we can get like this. Tell me if I fucked something up.
>>43479923So we need to hand scrape all the green into desu links and submit them? I thought the ai could do that, though the paste link to the desu is useful
>>43481616Huh?
>>43483139I see it, thanks! I have yet to write the tools required to process submissions :) Will do it tomorrow probably.>>43483612Thought about using AI. See >>43454035 . Some for sure could be recovered by AI, but then there are the messy ones. Especially the ones (2807 of those) for which I don't know any metadata.It's in my plans to do some AI based stuff, like deciding if a paste or author is pony related or not. Scraping pastes from desu could be one too. I just have to write some tool that the AI can use to look fetch data from desu via the API.Anyone could write an AI based desu scraper, then submit the results. I mean I'm not preventing anyone from doing it. I don't mean "anyone" in the way that it is so easy anyone could do it, as such a scraper would be difficult to write. Somehow the AI would have to also prove that whatever it managed to collect is valid. Eg analyze the story too, are the parts/posts fit together correctly, who could have been the author (might have to look at/search for other threads to find that out), what could be the title, etc. The result of such a scrape could be sent to the mail I listed on the submission page, uploaded to a file sharing site, etc.Will figure something out, it's on my todo list to do some AI based automation. At the moment I'm happy that I finished processing all the archives I could easily process. The list of missing pastes is an outcome of that, previously I did not even know what I was missing. Next major thing on the list is to clean up the existing data a bit (deduplication).
>>43476635
>>43483612>>43484090Just to give an example of the retardation which would seriously fuck up simple automated scraping:https://desuarchive.org/mlp/search/subject/Anon%20Reincarnate/The author originally posted one paste per post, as a guest. These are archived. Then decided to post it under his name as larger parts. Then deleted these. These are the missing ones.Then rewrote it to be more condensed, but did not completely repost. These are archived.Without an AI having the ability to look up other pastes, do search on desu, connect the posts together, follow links, etc, it would be impossible to trust it. It would just hallucinate whatever. It needs tools, which need to be developed. It's not as easy as "hey AI here is a paste ID go find it for me". Sure, larger models would figure out that desu has an API and how to use it, how to look up on ponebin, etc. But large models cost a lot.
>>43485162Damn, guess I'll start archiving this week, then. Is there a system to know if someone else already submitted an archive for a paste? It'll help stop dups unless you want that for higher accuracy.
>>43485344Not yet, Ill make one later today.

>>43483139Approved, thanks: https://poneb.in/yxWP8uXQChanged the submission form a bit, I forgot that I need the date too. For the ones I managed to scrape from somewhere I added it to the https://poneb.in/missing-pastes page.For the ones which are unknown just use the 4chan post date when it was first posted to here. Or guesstimate or something.>>43485344https://poneb.in/submission-queueDon't worry there isn't a huge number of people trying to contribute. Current count is 1.
>>43487793>ApprovedNice.Looking into other pastes I could recover this way, I found:>Pastebin jq6rRcS9 Topjack 2014-09-15 Oblivious anonThis used to contain part of the Oblivious Anon "Bella Grim" story, which started here:https://desuarchive.org/mlp/thread/19604475/#19672655and finished here:https://desuarchive.org/mlp/thread/21100336/#21131430There's a post noting the paste died and that another paste continued it:https://desuarchive.org/mlp/thread/20171810/#20288975That replacement paste (http://pastebin.com/jNnBLH4X) is still alive but doesn't have the full story.This bin has everything:https://poneb.in/cs0tyn7VSo I don't know how you handle cases like this, but https://poneb.in/cs0tyn7V is essentially the complete version of the original jq6rRcS9 paste, which was an unfinished attempt to archive this story.
>>43488915>So I don't know how you handle cases like thisNow you are in my shoes!Duplicating cs0tyn7V as jq6rRcS9 is fine. Since we don't exactly know what it contained, just make an educated guess. Even a simple message saying "This paste has been removed from Pastebin; however, an archived version is available at https://poneb.in/cs0tyn7V. Please note that the archived version made by a different user may not accurately reflect the original content in its entirety." works as the content. The link will be automatically linkified.Just imagine you searching for/navigating to that specific paste. Put whatever you would want to see in the content. If it's a message with a link, then it is that. If it's a copy of some other paste/desuarchive posts, that's fine too. At this point we are putting together piece by piece something that neither of us saw or have any picture of what it was originally. We can only work with whatever pieces/clues we can find.
>>43452531So how many writefags are still left anyway? Five? Less than ten?Are you a bad enough dude to reply to this post if you are, or ever were, a writefag.
>>43490606I wrote something like 3 greens.Two were honestly quite well received.I would like to go for something again, but I'm just lacking inspiration.
>>43490606Hello yes I'm still alive. Hoping to be back in the writing chair next Tuesday.
>>43490606Writefag here, but I haven't written anything for a few months, except for the shitpost greentext bump in this thread which doesn't really count.
>>43490606i'm around, trying to get back into it. doesn't help that i started an ambitious green some months ago and haven't updated it since
>>43490606Definitely more than 5, as I can list 5 ongoing stories. Highly likely more than 10. I would say highly likely less than 20, definitely less than 30.I miss the days when a single thread had more than 20 writefags on any given day.
>>43490606I write badly on occasion but I caught longfic disease so I try to focus my energy into that.
>>43490606I started almost a year ago and I'll still be here a year from now. Even if I write at a snail's pace and update every few weeks at best
>>43490606I'm a writefag. I, too, struggle to write. I gotta get off the internet.
>>43490606I'm still around, but I don't write /greens/ much these days. I usually just write prose and post it in fimfic.
>>43491224>went from green to prosegrim
>>43490606Here. Written much but only published maybe 10 short greens. I just feel like I don't have time to "get in the zone" anymore
>>43490606https://ponepaste.org/user/BlondieAnonYou love it. I had to stop writing for a year or two due to things going on but there is Sally in /yandere/, I've been hosting panels that either involve just oral storytelling or focusing on how to get to know characters better and have done non-writing things.I'm looking to tell stories beyond greens just because I want to try other methods and after a point, greens will never be read outside of a few niche groups. The purpose is to tell their stories and not to get le popular but I want my mares and their stories to be remembered by more than two anons.Twine is something fun I want to work with. Fimfic is... I don't know. I've even been told Ao3 accepts greens. No clue what will happen but I'm not done yet.
>>43492328Jacky!
Okay, after a little bit of archiving for poneb.in for Zero (now Slasher Science) I think there should be a merger or at least a link between the two user pages. "Great Romances Of The 20th Century" is split into 4 parts, but there are only 3 discoverable links for the first three. The last one is lost on the user page. The same goes for "Canterlotto."I'm also seeing some random pastebins that aren't exactly green, such as countdowns for garticpone and character sheets for long dead /tg/ games (RIP PDF uploads). I think these should be killed from the archive.
>>43492414Das it mane. I'm convinced maybe fifty anons have ever read her story total. Will never say it's a great story or even good. But I sure like it.
>>43492501Thanks for the submissions!>merger or at least a link between the two user pagesI added support for multiple usernames a while back. For example Rhorse was previously Rat_Chieftain and Rat even before that. All known names direct you to the same page: https://poneb.in/u/rat https://poneb.in/u/rat_chieftain https://poneb.in/u/Rhorse (it's case insensitive too).I can write a script to re-process the IA scrape to automatically detect a few more renames if IA archived the user pages before and after the rename. Or just press the report button in the upper right, provide two links from the internet archive with the two usernames where at least one paste with the same paste ID is visible, then I manually merge it.>I think these should be killed from the archive.Same as with the user merge: upper button and submit a report. But I would rather keep them if it is even a tiniest bit pony related. What I really want to delete is pastes which are 0% pony related from authors who never made any pony related content. But it is hard to prove that it is not pony related, because I would have to read through them partially and somehow confirm that it is really not pony related. For example it could be EQG with characters who appeared for like 5 seconds and I don't even know their names. Or a completely unique setting which takes place in the EQG universe but does not mention any major characters or places from the show. I know there are a ton of RP stuff, chatlogs, whatever else too. But even those are a lesser issue than the huge amount of random dox/piracy/password dump pastes. I nuked a few thousands of those already. Oh and weeb stuff. There is a lot of that too. At least those are somewhat easier to confirm not being pony related, but I ran into one which was actually pony related because it was weeb characters in Equestria translated from Japanese.An idea just occurred to me, that I could add a flag to each paste if it was ever linked from here or not. If it was linked the it is more likely to be pony related than not.Again, thanks for the submissions! I will check them later today or tomorrow. First I want to fix a few bugs: issues with paste titles and the search, plus a few quality of life changes like linkifying raw paste urls (who in the right mind links the raw paste instead of the normal one...), set up an automatic DB synchronization to a backup instance. And I'm also neglecting two writefags who I do commentary/review/criticism for their story updates.
>>43492753>I added support for multiple usernames a while backForgot to mention that pastebin.com/u/0Zero0 is not archived yet, so that page doesn't exist for me to report.>I can write a script to re-process the IA scrape to automatically detect a few more renames if IA archived the user pages before and after the renameYou probably don't need to if you read my proof in the submissions. Slashing Science was double tripfagging and made a new alias and user page>Same as with the user merge: upper button and submit a reportJust to make sure, this is for the missing pastes, right? I just make a list of ones that should be kil and send eet?>Again, thanks for the submissions! I will check them later today or tomorrowNo problem. I'll get back to cracking more greens today and this weekend, just taking a short break. Have fun with the wave I'm about to crush you with.More archivers would also be nice. Going through the entire process and hunting down the loose ends to make sure I got everything was pretty rough.
>>43492830Just archived Fuckasaurus_Fuck's stuff. It's just repeat stuff that shouldn't be archived or at least hyperlink back to the main green (https://poneb.in/Kh7SGi1B). But it did make me realize that pastes that already have the title, date, and author name should be autogenerated when I put in the paste ID.Now I'm just sad after reading through all that fluffy pony stuff. :(I humbly request someone write a happy fluffy pony green pl0x.
>>43492830>so that page doesn't exist for me to reportThe text for the reports are free form, you can write whatever. It's not tied to the page, but I store which page the report came from.>proof in the submissionsThis is fine too. I will add an alias.>this is for the missing pastes, right?Whatever is more convenient. You can either make a report on the missing pastes page listing which ones to kill, or a submission then either in the content field or the proof explain what I should do. Note that the report has a 1000 and the proof field has a 2500 character limit or something similar. Can't recall from the top of my head. It will warn you if you exceed it. Just use the content field if you have a longer message.I manually handle reports/submissions, there is no automation (besides a script now which I can tell to "process and import this submission", in case everything is ok with it). There is no "admin" page on the site or anything similar either, I just look at the DB with the a DB management software.>More archivers would also be nice.And also alternatives. I'm thinking about releasing the source code of the site so others can host a mirror. I posted a DB dump already, and I will post a newer one once I feel that it is "ready" again. For example I want to get rid of the duplicate versions like in case of https://poneb.in/PbtyyVTf . All four version looks the same but one may be using utf8-bom encoding, one using utf8, one may be using windows line endings, one may be using Unix line endings, one may have a trailing newline at the end, etc.
>>43492967>I humbly request someone write a happy fluffy pony green pl0x.I thought abuse was the whole point of fluffy ponyisn't it still b& too?
>>43493215>I thought abuse was the whole point of fluffy ponyI know, but it's sad to read about these cute, useless things be abused.>isn't it still b& too?Yes.
>>43493215>>43493295Wanna know what's fucked up? The fluffy pony threads on /trash/ made me go back to /mlp/. Going back to /mlp/ made me find the thread of bootleg ponies. That led to Jacky, which led to everything else I've done in the name of mare. I never even knew /trash/ was a real board until I had someone actually link to it.
>>43493680Ok I'll bite. Why should I read Jacky? I've read a few /bootleg/ greens and it's just muh donut steel but le m6 character. Why not just write it as your own OC or something? The only good ones I've seen are the robot ones that aren't m6 /bootleg/s. Or at least try not to make that the forefront of the character.
>>43494112>why should I read JackyI have no clue. It is a very very long green. I would never, in good conscious, ask anyone to read shit that big.>why not just write it as your own OCShe is. The core concept is that Anon buys a mare online and almost immediately it becomes clear that she doesn't actually know who she is supposed to be. Came with some accessories but has no clue about herself other than she remembers her two friends.As time goes on, we learn more about her and her two friends: Sparking Shine and Faint Prism. We learn what happened to them. The lives they had before ending up where they did. We see how they come to terms to live with themselves and each other. We see their flaws and their strengths. What motivates them to become more than objectively worthless cretins. We even learn what could be Jacky's real name... if that even matters anymore.That was the biggest beauty about /bootleg/ to me. I cared less about who they immediately resembled and more about who they are. What flaws they have and what that means. It doesn't mean they're only negatives but we are more often defined by our failures than our successes. It's that pressure that reveals who and what you are regardless of who's watching. Outside of a few greens, the vast majority of my stories just involve mares that don't matter. They're just as valuable as anyone else you see while walking around. Which means they don't matter at all unless they matter to you.>why should II'll insist that you shouldn't, if you don't want to. Or if you don't like reading longer things. But if you do want to, I'd recommend reading Angel Cake's Quest first. That is a /bootleg/ green that involves a filly losing her home and wanting to go to Heaven. As soon as possible.If you like that and want to learn more, I'd then recommend /jacky/ IF Scenario M: Missy Pie. That is a short story and prequel to Angel Cake's Quest.Then, if that is still interesting, reading the very first part of Jacky Part 4 will give you a wider context of the world and what our Anon has gone through... and what could have been. Then if you care, I suppose keep reading from there or start from Part One and go from there. After everything came out, I got enough feedback regarding how that seems like a good introduction. It's a long story. Took around four years to do and not all of it matters. But it's a segmented feed into something larger going on, even if we see only the smaller bits.Outside of my habit of underselling or dismissing my own stories, Jacqueline and her cohort mean a lot to me. They mean a whole lot to me than (You) ever will. Whether or not that matters to you isn't up for me to decide. It could just be like seeing your grandparents fucking. You know there's something real there but Jesus Christ you don't wanna witness it.
>>43494152And in an earnest effort to praise those girls, regardless of how much I do or don't want to shill them due to my personal attachment, they've gotten a fair bit of art over the years. Someone even felt compelled to make music based off of what he felt from reading what was there at the time. At the end of the day it doesn't matter what I say because of course I'm going to fluff it up or just outright call it shit. But ReggieSomething once told me that he read through all of Jacky in one sitting, multiple times. I had one anon, in person, thank me for something I wrote. I don't know what it could've been but I think that it was likely something /bootleg/ related.When you're in love, you want to tell the world. I don't know about the "in" part, but I love what writing Jacky has done. I love how it changed me, and I loved that I was able to tell her story. I'm glad at least a small few have seen the value, but I don't feel more or less vindicated because of it.And because I mentioned it, of course here is proofs: https://youtu.be/6jLZCH4YJBA Listen to his stuff. He's a cool guy.But for real, don't go into any of this expecting quality. That is for others to decide. I just do shit. It's why I'm still here.
>>43494112you're really gonna diss my boi /bootleg/ like that
Saturday morning bumpleg. Feels good to talk about them again.
>>43494152>>43494170Uh, so I don't read it? I can try reading Angel Cake's Quest.>https://youtu.be/6jLZCH4YJBA [Embed]I remember seeing this in tempo and all the praise I heard about the green, which caused me to go try to read it, but I never got hooked.It's been a while since I last tried reading it. Maybe things have changes since then.>>43494285Well it's hard for me to be interested in /bootleg/ greens. Whenever I try to read them I have to force myself to power through. It's just something about the setting that's off for me. They feel disconnected of a sorts to me, like the ponies aren't really there (which is probably the point). The mares aren't just mares to me. I don't know, it's hard to describe.
>>43495452Yes. Exactly. It's a big, long mess of a story full of mares you don't know or care about. Angel Cake's Quest has ties to it but it's also more of a starting point into that realm and how mare are seen. It's fine if you don't get hooked. It really isn't a green for everyone. If anyone else tries to shill you on Jacky, that is what they see. I don't know what to tell you, I've seen it from every angle given my attachment to having gone through and written it.>like the ponies aren't really thereI think that can be legit because until you know the mare in question, she's kinda just there. Like Twilit Starsky. She's very much her own mare and I appreciate what her story goes into but if you just look at her at a glance... you just see another donut steel. And yeah, that's fair.Gotta remember that at the end of the day, there's no accounting for taste.
Apologies in advance for samefagging but after writing these posts I figured there might be an anon who could be interested in giving their AiE greens a fun twist>>43495520>>43495577>>43495685>>43495699

>>43496109Finally found time to read it. The >prose part kind of threw me off, but it was well written. Noir Anon is underutilized. Overall it's alright, I'm not a fan of the script-ish dialogue. Ponk was cool in this one, but I like OCs in muh greens.
>>43498117What is script-ish dialogue?
>>43498121Like this:A: Pinkie... Pinkie Pie... did this human touch you inappropriately or call anyone on the phone?PP: Hmmm... nope! We did share mane styles thoughA: Oh, excellent, I am glad...

I will not fault you for living with another womanA: I am not living with another woman, you don't know me, Pinkie is a pony... it's totally not like thatIt's like reading a movie script. It doesn't flow well for greens.
>https://poneb.in/jq6rRcS9Was missing a post two posts (the linked pastes had them), I added those.In the content you don't need to link to both pastebin and ponebin, the linkifier logic automatically takes care of it.

For now let's stick with convenience.>fluffy stuffI'm sorry that you had to deal with these.I have gone through half of them and approved them. To be honest, I spent more time writing the admin tool to deal with the submissions rather than actually approving them. Plus desu is slow today, takes a minute or two to load. I'll continue tomorrow.I have also dealt with the two reports. And other minor fixes which nobody will notice that it changed.

Just finished looking through all of MisterTibbs' posts (jesus 80+ pages) and I think I've got most of Robin Hood Anon down, though chapter one's archived name is "Anon In Equestria, Chapter 1: Hola, caballas!". He probably renamed it. The main issue here is that I'm missing the pastebin links for some of the chapters. I'll go looking for them later, but that might be an issue if I don't find them. It might be best to just put all of the chapters together into one big bin or something.Also if this faggot is around https://desuarchive.org/mlp/thread/29490120/#q29501017 please post your horse story archive. Hell, if anyone has an old collection (pre 2021 or 2020), please post your green horse story collection so missing pastes can be filled in. Thank you for your attention to this matter!
>>43501225You can use https://a0346f102085fe9f.github.io/IAS2/ to search semantically within the pastes. If he renamed it maybe you can find it with that.I plan to implement something similar in the future.>>29501017Pretty unlikely that the writefirend is around. That post was 9 years ago.

What do you think about posting updates for a green not written by the writefag?For example the thread dies, but the writefag keeps updating. When the next thread is created some other anon posts the updates which was missed while the thread was down.
>>43503809>Post-nut clarity hits>Every pony in Sugarcube Corner is staring at you>They look various degrees of angry and horrified
>mfw my favorite write thread got killed overnightWhat happen
>>43504875What happened is you know who wiping the board again and Hoffman still not being locked up yet.
>>43504548I think this is one of two ways you can go for a /yandere/. You either get swept up and you learn to live with it and hope they can calm down... or you plant your feet down and get ready to take it head on. Like Link at the start of Twilight Princess with those rampaging goats.She may be calm but even a glancing examination of her room shows a lot of really not good things. The question now is where to go from there. The new good that may come up along with the new bad. I'm still not even convinced Anon should've said "yes". The pressure to say it must have been intense even if it wasn't explicit.
>>43504938Not nearly enough of the second type imo. Enough of fixing girls via digging deep into their trauma and crying with them and shit. More fixing girls by being a consistent positive influence in their life while putting your foot down against all their bullshit.
>>43504994The thing is that some issues can't be fixed. Some problems can never be solved on your own. Some problems can't be solved even with someone else helping out. Sally and Fringe are what and who they are. Nothing short of complete ego death will change that.The irony in all of this is that Anon is a motivational speaker. Parasocial, biased lectures and ideas of "well this is what could help". If word ever gets out that he hooked up with someone that listened to him...I hate yandere stories where the crazy is merely fucked out of them. Or that it's all acting out and being shallow. It's treated like a fetish in that it isn't given the depth and weight it demands. That's just me.
>>43504875Dunno but a few hours ago threads were reaching p10 in 50 minutes.
Well before the /YPGR/ thread is up again I just want to thank that one anon who comments whenever I continue the Sugarcube green. It motivates me to keep going as a novice writefag. Now, if you excuse me it's about time I learn how to use ponepaste.
Some days are slow, some days we get hours before something sinks to 10.
>50,864 words>5726 lines>275.25KBhttps://ponepaste.org/11973I had no expectations for Sally. No clue what was going to happen. In the last few months we've seen her go from random fangirl to psycho with a few screws loose to... now a girlfriend to a man that I'm sure isn't completely proud of himself.I get the feeling this is gonna wrap up soon. Or at least this part of it. Then I suppose it'll continue.Who asked for this? Who wants to see it happen? Who cares? No clue but that hasn't stopped me with any other story I've written since 2019.
>>43504718>"Anon, what are you doing?" Pinkie Pie yells at you; she's standing in the middle of the stairs that lead up to her room, and looking shocked."You ordered a stripper, didn't you? I was supposed to come here and do my routine, so I---">"Well, yeah, I did hire you, but not for the customers. My party is in my room, silly. Come on, every pony is already up there waiting for you."
>>43505611Ponepaste is pretty easy to use. The only thing that sucks is copying/pasting every post you do and making sure you don't miss anything. I wanna see more of your stuff once the thread is back.
>>43506651>The only thing that sucks is copying/pasting every post you do and making sure you don't miss anythingYou don't write it on a notepad and then paste from there?
>>43506845No way. I write in the text box and only in the text box. Been doing that since 2019. I don't write anywhere else, I don't pre-write, I don't keep timelines or anything like that. I sit, write, post, and then that's it. Plus or minus just copy/pasting into ponepaste. Or pastebin, back when we used that still.
>>43506845NTA but for the sugarcube green I'm using a text editor and then copypasting it on 4chan. The only issue is that I often end up writing past the character limit and end up having to do last minute adjustments or split things up in different posts
>>43504534Why would the writefag not post the updates themselves if they're still writing?
>>43506864>I write in the text box and only in the text boxI only do that for oneshits. How long do your greens usually go? I've read a few greens that written like that and they typically go sideways pretty fast, lose interest, or the writer runs out of ideas.>>43506905>end up having to do last minute adjustments or split things up in different postsSame here. I write a big chunk of green and then I have to figure out how to split it without breaking the tempo. That part usually happens while I am posting...
>>43506905>>43507004I love breaking up an update into multiple posts. First, it lets me know I wrote a decent amount, and second, I can use it as a sort of paragraph break. One of the few ways to cheat the format of greens.
>>43507007>>43507007>paragraph breakVery cheesy. The only times I purposely use the breaks are when I want to have a section that's in focus or to anticipate something. Like this:>You draw the bow to its full strength.>"I-is this safe?">You roll your eyes."Of course it is. Now hold still.">Instead of doing that, she has to tremble."Hold still, Placeholder.">"S-s-sir...""Think of it this way. You don't move, this arrow doesn't miss. Capiche?">Your hopeless assistant gulps.>"Y-yes sir.""Good. Now...">You let the arrow fly.
>>43507032>TINK.>"Eek!">The miniature arrow finds it mark on the tin atop of Placeholder's head.>That sets off a chain reaction of your rube goldberg machine.>At the end, a stick pokes the on button of the coffee maker.>Then, after a ringer triggers, the cup of joe is pushed in front of you.>You sip it.>It needs more sugar."...back to the drawing board."Else, I just try to cram in as many characters as the 3000 limit lets me. The ponepaste is just a continuous chunk though, with gaps between the updates.
>>43507033>>43507032Sex with Placeholder
>>43507038Do not sex Placeholder, she is Anon's clueless assistant that he keeps around to make himself feel smart. and also his follower when he goes a-questin' in monty python medieval equestria
>>43507046>Do not sex PlaceholderYou know what? I'm gonna sex her even harder now.
>>43506993Because it takes a long time.
>>43507004>>43506299There's this most recently. My longest story is Jacky, that took around four years and the main bulk is some 330k words. Everything I've done has been just in the text boxes. I like it. I've been able to curve things a little to fit the limitations.
>>43504534I'm for it. Writing into the void is one thing but even one other anon mentioning a story can do a lot to bring interest. Word of mouth is how greens will ever be noticed. Nothing else will really matter.
>>43507797He is regular. Posting green for like 9 years already. That specific green is ongoing for 5 years already.It's just that the thread keeps dying without any other writefag.
>>43508342Con break's over. Continuing my green.
>>43508114Are you talking about /spg/? The thread is in a pretty sorry state unfortunately, but I've enjoyed most of the greens that have come from there so far. I just don't read that writefag's stuff because ever since I read the cuckshit from him it kind of turned me off. And I don't really feel like reading the entire green from the beginning to catch up to where it is. Same goes for the super long one on /nmp/. I liked Lithia a lot though, shame the writefag didn't like the abuse. Xena was the best sadistic unicorn.
>>43508406Yes.Red Sky? Or which one?
If /yandere/ doesn't come back soon, I'm gonna kickstart it on Saturday. Sally isn't the kind to sit back and wait. Not now.
>>43508541>Red SkyYep, this one. Soured me right up, especially since he put it near the fucking end. Niggers. Sorry, I have to write that because I cringe whenever I remember what happened. Seriously fucked up that it happened near the end. Nigger.I don't even know why I read Rosa too, that one was ok. Fuck, why did I even read Break too? I hated the first person perspective on Anon. What the fuck is wrong with me
>>43508576>Seriously fucked up that it happened near the end.I haven't read it out of spite because of picrel (I only want Spitfire greens) but I'm going to assume I should read it anyway because it actually is good
>>43508585No don't fucking read it you moron unless you're a cuck. It's a cake with a piece of shit in the center. I don't even remember any Spitfire-esque thing from it. Don't you dare fucking read it you dumb nigger. I'm telling you this as Anon to Anon. Don't do it. Seriously.Read Fire and Sky instead and save yourself the grief.
>>43508593So it's just cuckslop? That's grim.
>>43508605It is. It builds up insanely well for the cuck shit. It's so hidden that when it hits you it hits like a fully loaded semi truck carrying gold. Holy fuck it still makes my blood boil. Anon should've murdered both of them when he walked in. Beat the shit out of the colt until his head is caved in and raped Red to death. I'm going to stop posting for a bit to cool off. Fucking niggers, man.
>>43508616lollmaoIn all honesty, why write cuck shit? Is it because you're into it or you want to cuck the reader?
>>43508576Most stuff by AWF is excellent.The Barbarians one has one major issue: it has become an exclusively slice of life thing, rather than an event driven one. Even the major events in don't feel like anything, but just another day.He spent way longer on this one than any previous (5 years already), yet I think it's the second worse after Red Sky.>Getting ShyThis is another one where the ending isn't great. Up to the life changing event with Fluttershy it's great. Then after that the end result is basically the roles getting reversed. Well the roles wasn't that much carved into stone, but the seesaw flips to the other side.>Lurkernon's Fire and SkyYes, read that. That one is great!>>43508605Not all the way, but pretty much.>>43508406>Shape your homeThat one is definitely not worth reading if you have not read it from day one. It's like a soap opera with 1000+ episodes. Nobody starts watching those after they aired.
I hate that back in the old days writefags always replaced the O in pony with 0. For example p0nyville, p0ny, anyp0ny, etc.
>>43508803g37 51l73r3d, 200m13
>>43508867I don't know what it says that I was able to read that easily. I don't even remember being immersed in that shit.
>>43508803It was done as a precaution to avoid the spam filter.
>>43507004>I write a big chunk of green and then I have to figure out how to split it without breaking the tempo. That part usually happens while I am posting...NTA but this used to happen to me all the time, fighting with the character limit.Posting longer greens could be a hoot if it didn't take so damn long to do. Sometimes I'd even think of a joke at the last minute and quickly write it into the green as I was posting it.
>>43508920keeek, are you me? I do the exact same thing. The worst I've gotten was when 4pone's filter caught me for spam and I spent a bunch of time trying to fix my post.
>>43508982>are you me?yehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOnKCcjP8Qs
Bumpa
Has it only been around two night since I last wrote? I am FIENDING. I don't honestly remember the last time I've felt such a strong urge to focus on a singular story. Need more Obscure Embracing. Need another Fringe Binge. Even need to revisit a cache of Precious Mettle.
>>43509485Then go write, Anon! Spread the word!
>>43509485I feel you anon. The sugarcube green of all things is the one and only writing endeavor I have felt actual passion. I don't know how long it will last but right now it feels good to just write.
>>43507047>You feel something, or someONE, touch your leg as you're working at your desk."Go away, Placeholder. Can't you see I'm busy?">"Sir...">That thing is now leaning on your leg.>You inhale.>Dang it.>What day is it?>...right."Didn't I get that thing for you?">"It, uhm... doesn't help.""Really? That was the expensive model with the fancy feature.">The mare shifts a little, but doesn't leave contact from your leg.>"S-sorry sir...">You continue working on the doohickey that's been confluddling you for the past two hours.>That thing should go to that thing, or that thing to that other thing over on that thing.>Or something like that.>And Placeholder is still standing next to your leg."Are you going to annoy me the entire day?">"N-no!

You did try to use it, right?">"Y-yes!">That came out a little hard.>Your eyes narrow.>You use your two thumbs to split her vulva open to get a look inside.>"Mmhmm~!!~~!">As expected, you don't see any of the... whatever they put in the thing."You didn't use it, did you?">She's breathing heavily as she avoids your gaze.>"N~no... sir~">Damn it, she's wasting your time.>Your thumbs slip and ride across her vulva as it closes.>"M~~~~mm!">You place your hands on her thighs."Why?">"Because i~it can't replace~ the real thing.">You press down on her thighs as you lean in in disbelief.>"Mmmmf~!""Seriously? I bought that for no reason? So you're telling me you knew it didn't work and you didn't tell me?">"I~ I'm~ sorry sir~. I was~ wasn't thinking~""Do they have a return policy?"
>>43509664>"I don't~ know~">Great.>50 bits down the drain.>Huzzah.>And you still have the problem in front of you.>Her ears are red, too.>The air reeks of her all too familiar desire.>There's a small pool on your desk.>Damn it.>Whatever, first thing's first.>You pull down your pants to reveal your member.>You notice her eyes look right at it.>Sigh again.>You rub it a little to get it going and when it's half erect you slide it across her vulva a few times.>"AhhHHnn~~~~! NnnnMMF~~!~!!~!">It gets coated in her juices as it raises to full mast.>Now it's ready.>You again grab her thighs and pull her little body to the edge of your desk.>You line it up and abruptly push it in.>"Ahhh~!!!~~!!~!">You bottom out.>Contact with the cervix is made.>"Nggggggg~!!">You let it rest there for a moment.>Her eyes are locked onto the action down there.>Placeholder's face is completely flush.>You push it forward.>Instantly, her eyes close.>"Hnnnnnnng~~!!!">You start to piston your assistant as meaty plaps fill the air.> "Ahh~!!~Unn~!!~~!~Ah~!!!~Ahh~!!~~!!!~Mmf~!!!-Aah~!~!!">Her forelegs start to move on their own, reaching around randomly.>One of them knocks off a bolt.>That's not good.>"Unf~!~~!!~AhAA~!!~!!~~~!!!~Ah~!!!~~!!~AH!!~~Ah~!!~!!">You lean over her to take control of the wild forelegs.>In an instant they wrap themselves around your body.>Well, that's an improvement you suppose.>Her hindlegs press against your hips as you continue having intercourse with her.>You press your body to hers, your hands reaching down.>One grips her thigh, the other a nipple.>You squeeze with one and rub with the other.>"MmmMMMMM~~!!!!!!!!!~~AHHH~!!!!~~~!!!!!~~~!!!~~~!~~!!!!!!!!!!!!!">Her back arcs at your action and you feel a sudden splash of fluid at your lower body.>A great amount of it drips down into your pants.>...you should've taken it off completely.>Her eyes crack open as her hot breath washes across your face with each thrust.>Smells like honey.>"!!~~ah~~!!!~s~~sir!~!!~~~Ah~!!!~!!~!~~!!~~Ah~!!"
>>43509667>You know what she wants.>It would probably end this a bit faster.>You press your lips against hers and kiss her.>She eagerly returns the favor.>Your tongue only needs to touch her lips for them to open.>Her tongue meets your in her mouth as you deepen the kiss.>You can feel her body squeeze and pull your penis as it scrapes her vagina's walls.>Your hand rubbing her nipple glides up the side of her body as your feel her up and down.>"Mm~!!~~~!~!!~~~~!!~mmmmm~~~~~!!~~~~~~~!!~~~~~!">Her legs clamp down harder, but not enough to inhibit your pelvis.>You start to thrust harder into her, shaking your typically stable desk to the point of more of your things falling off.>Crap.>Every time the tip of your penis makes contact with her cervix she moans deeply into your mouth.>"mmMMMMM!!~~!!~~~~!~~~MMMMMM~!!!!~!!!~~~~~~!~~~~mmmm~!~~~!~~~~~mMMMMmMMMM!!!~~~!!">You hold her small body tight as you increase your pace.>Her body responds by gripping your penis tighter, letting it have contact with all of her.>Both of your hands find purchase on her back as you pull her into yourself.>With one last thrust, you ejaculate into her.>A spray of her fluid occurs at the same moment.>"A~~ANON~!!!!~!!!!!!!!!!~~~!!!!!!!!!~~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!~~~!!!!!!!~~~!!!!!!!!!!!!~~!!~~~~~!!~!~~~~~">Your penis continues to expel your semen into her body as you hold her tightly.>After a moment, you finally fall back into your chair, pulling her with you.>Her breathing is haggard as she lies against your chest, nose nuzzling your neck.>Your hands idly stroke her.>You get the time to take a look at your desk and its surroundings.>Great.>Now you'll need her to clean up everything.>And you to find the stuff that fell off the table.>Looks like today's productivity is bust.>You sigh.>"...t~thank you, sir.""Next time, we're doing this on the bed."There, sex with Placeholder for the first and only time.
>>43509534I need the thread back first.>>43509623If it doesn't pop up some time today I'm making it tonight. Our momentum will not be stopped by mere shitpostery.
>>43509670Now write her pregnant
>>43507007>>43507032As a reader, I appreciate when writers use the format to their advantage. Putting point-of-view shifts on post boundaries is obvious - everyone does that, right? - and you can play with things like "micro cliffhangers" between one post and the next.
>>43510308Feels wrong not to end a post in a micro cliffhanger
I was going to advertise a really old general here but someone already made a thread back in late 2025 surprisingly. Anyway here's my favorite author from the whore pony threads https://poneb.in/u/diatomic-ge. I don't even remember how I found my way to the whore pony threads in 2022 but I did somehow. The main general bin is here: https://poneb.in/u/WhorePonyThreadHappy reading or whatever
I'm quite self conscious that my /yan/ green currently has no yanderes in it. I promise it's not my intention to edge all of you. I want to kickstart the yandere part. I just need to set things up.

>>43514749Did someone really refer to the mares as little girls? They are young adults at the very least if not outright MILFs with foals in numerous cases. Although I get that for instance Celestia is present as an 'adult figure' in terms of size and wisdom, if someone knew absolutely nothing maybe they'd get confused.
>>43514749Who told you that mares are little girls? There's /jdb/ and plenty of filly threads to show what that looks like. Money isn't an issue for most of the mane six because they aren't a nation in constant one-in-a-lifetime financial disasters, and they aren't being infested with economic parasites but they do have jobs. They do work. You just have a government agent, a farmer/rancher, a seamstress, a baker, environmental services, and animal care/control. Very blue-collar jobs outside of the glowie, which is why she stands out and why "magic makes it all complete".
>>43514830>Twilight is a glowieKek.
>>43514830>Very blue-collar jobs outside of the glowie, which is why she stands outWorth noting that she's a true member of the political class that was sent out to the sticks specifically to touch base with normal ponies and some of her childhood friends are just straight up the idle rich.
>>43514849>some of her childhood friends are just straight up the idle richWho? They're all working class. Minuette works somewhere, Lemon Hearts does the big events, Twinkleshine does something, Lyra lives in ponyville, and Moondancer is a shut in. Twilight's study is 10x more luxurious than the others' home, especially Moondancer's.
>>43514849Who is idle, much less idle rich? AJ gets an episode about how she works herself to the bone and it's not enough. Rarity gets an episode of how hard it is to design dresses when she lets her friends influence her flow. Fluttershy is often shown working with animals as her main way to spend time. RD is on cloud duty, she's just a low-rung grunt. Pinkie is a baker which is not at all fancy. She basically lives upstairs and the owners don't mind her tending to the place since they often aren't around.You can argue AJ's family is rich but from how common her money woes are in S1, they're rich in assets but not in liquidity. Rarity's a small town bumpkin who wants to rub shoulders with the greats so she's nowhere near well off enough to make a move. RD's dream to be a Wonderbolt is basically the same as some amateur wanting to get scouted for the NFL. Panko and Flutter are pretty happy with their lot in life even if neither of them actually have a lot.I think it's worth remembering that once upon a time, you could be just a baker and still be doing ok in life. Not working for Bake Inc but literally just a career baker and you can pay for your life. Fluttershy is animal control so she's probably paid by the mayor and by AJ when her animals need help. Twilight still upsets the balance but she's been GROOMED by MOLESTIA so she was never going to be just a nobody.

I dunno what to do with the missing IDs so here are the IDless chapters in a zip: https://u.pone.rs/vgfolctl.zipThe formatting I kept the same as Robin Hood Anon Chapter 1 (https://poneb.in/UcdskDDm). Was kinda lazy on archiving it all properly as it was a slog to go through.

>>Fire made of sickly green and almost black purple magic burns the throne room. Scattered around are charred bodies of Rebels and the Flare Guard, yet it's the one before the unicorn stallion that takes all of his attention.>>>>His companion laid dead, her body badly burned save for her cutie mark. Enough of the center star is still visible for her family and friends to recognize. Twilight Sparkle, a unicorn of great power was dead.>>>>The twisted laughter brought his eyes to it's owner, the source of the flames as well as the heat slowly turning the stone room into an oven. Daybreaker looked at the still living unicorn, tears streaming down his face from the realization that his lover was dead. The tyrant taking sadistic pleasure at his pain.>>>>"You honestly believed that failure had what it takes to kill me! ME?!" She screamed stalking toward the line rebel. "I conquered the Moon and command the SUN! I, who tamed the changeling swarm and subjected the Shadow King! I disemboweled Tirek and left him to suffer endlessly in Tarturus while trapping Discord in a constant loop of eating his own tail. How dare you mere mortals believe you could even SCRATCH me!">>She attempted to charge up a new fireball to wipe out the stallion yet runes of purple energy disburse the charge. This was it! Twilight sacrificed her life to afford the stallion this last chance to end her reign completely!>>>>With a roar of anger, Vorpal Will picked up his shattered sword. Blue arcane symbols burned in the steele as the shards floated next to him. With a flick of the blade, the shrapnel launched towards the psychotic Alicorn.>>>>She raised a shield from a small burst of energy to block the fragments, yet to her horror they cut through her magic. The first shard bounced off her chest piece, allowing her to see what exactly the symbols were and her blood runs cold. It was the ancient language of the Alicorns. Luna seemed to have left her sister a surprise from beyond as a second pierced the side of her throat while the last stabbed into her horn, releasing a devastating discharge of magic...>>________________________________________>>Princess Twilight Sparkle picked herself off the floor as her experiment backfired. She was attempting to use some of structure from the mirror portal to create a window that would allow a pony to peer into the multiverse. Unfortunately, magical interference caused the mirror to shatter, throwing her into the wall of her laboratory. When she woke up, she found a soot covered maple unicorn pony dressed in scorched armor holding a broken long sword in his mouth laying on the other side of the room.>>>>"Oh my goodness!" Twilight rushed to the unconscious pony, turning him over she found half of his body burned but there was still time to save him. All she needed to do was take him to the one pony who could deal with burns like these... Princess Celestia.>>

>>43516030>missing IDsJust invent IDs for them. For a few pastes (in the previous version of the site which could not handle versioning) I just changed the last letter to one less/more.Check that the ID is not an existing one (check both on the site and pastebin and webarchive). But it is highly unlikely it exists by random chance.>ias2 downSad. I would say I start hosting the blobs but CF has a 100mb size limit for free accounts. And I don't have the blobs either. Seems like nobody is hosting the files on IPFS anymore.Don't worry, semantic search/full text search will be something I'm going to implement. I'm not promising any deadline when it will be done. I need a lot of time to get it good enough.
>>43516030>>43517450 (me)Debugged the ias2 issue a bit. The files are there which it tries to download, but I bet it's some funky Cloudflare waf filter which blocks it.If you navigate to the blobs it tries to download it is possible to reach them.Since it runs completely in browser, you can just save the html page and the blobs as is, open up the html with a text editor and swap the download links to point to your local downloaded files.I have not tried it if this works, but in theory it should.

>>43452531how should I refer to blacks and africans in my green?
>>43518475Mares can have black manes and coats, that doesn't make them black. But what are Africans doing in your green?
>>43518481They are talking loudly and wearing afros, clearly american blacks. I forgot to mention that this is an equestria girls green.
>>43518493
>>43518493Even if you're writing EQG why do you let those live in your head and why do you want them to be in your green?
>>43518510It's for a joke I think is funny:>Continuing to monitor the situation, two girls sitting at the bar stools you had installed for the occasion catch your eye>Two slim figures with large grey and black striped afros adorning the tops of their heads sat with their glasses of Colt 45, talking and laughing with one another>That observation about the girls and their dresses earlier went straight out the window>These two were rocking their cocktail dresses, with just the right amount of curve to boot>Their sharp features were visible against their jet black skin, with thick red lips and dark eyes accentuating their wide smiles and increasingly loud laughter>Their overall appearance worked very well with their surroundings, which was decidedly 70’s>You go up to talk to them, overhearing something about a fire in Malaysia, when you hear a crash followed by a round of shouting from behind
>>43518516>Wanting to fuck negressesYou're right, that is funny
>>43518938I get that there's a lot of words there but the joke is set up just fine. I don't know how you missed it

>>43518976jesus, I wonder how many heads this joke is going to fly over
>>43518983Can you explain it? Is there setup missing?
>>43518983I also don't get it. Is it something to do with their attire? Or the Malaysia fire? Are they crossdressers or something? If it's a joke from a /tv/ film then there's bound to be some Anons who will miss it.

>>43520086Don't ever say you don't get it because anons will never explain it to you. They'll just tell you to lurk moar even though their joke hasn't been referened to or mentioned in years.

>>43520980I really hope this is achievable natty
>>43521032>>43521114Is it me or is /rgre/ also slowly dying? It's been a long time since I last visited it and recently I'm seeing the "bump". That's it. "bump". I remember it being a pretty strong general with constant discussion back then. /aie/ is fucking dead though, not sure when that happened. I think it used to have greens. Are greens dying?
>>43521218>Are greens dying?No. Still alive as usual.
>>43521218>are greens dying?I don't think greens are dying but interest in them have died. Or are dying pretty severely.There's not a lot of discussion about greens and a lot of the ones I've seen mentioned tend to be pretty old and early-mid 2010s. Comments on greens are incredibly sparse. Ponepaste has no way to comment or communicate what is actually good or not so view count is the only thing you can go off of. Which means most greens are barely read at all. Or the views are bots/scrapers.Meanwhile draw threads are always populated because drawing can be high or low effort. It can be fun or funny or just coom bait. It's more easy to consume. Anons love to consoom easy stuff. Tamers is a great example of more visuals, more jokes and coomer bait, and sometimes you get a basic story out of it.Keep writing, if you feel the urge. Just know that you're writing into an abyss. Once you stop, it is very possible no one will notice.
>>43521258Yeah, I've largely given up on greens because I get no interaction from the community, which is made worse when low effort posts or AI art posts are getting way more (you)s.
>>43521345Or you only ever hear anons talk about stories, not even greens, over 15 years old. I've heard so much random talk about Fallout Equestria and seen so many FOE plushies but even then I don't often hear specific likes or critiques.It's not jealousy, it feels like it's just that is somehow when poni stories peaked so everything else isn't worth mentioning or remembering. Or maybe the fags at fimfiction are right and we're wrong.
>>43521360>spoilerI will die before ever admitting this to be the case. Fuck those pretentious pseuds, if there's only one greenfag left in this world, it'll be me, baby.
>>43521402You just don't understand, anon. You need to sound smart by writing big words. Even if your character isn't smart. You need ten commas in your paragraph.Did you get the MF sponsor con book? Ebonyglow wrote a story and it is everything fimfiction praises. Shit formatting, grammatical errors, incomplete sentences.Admit that is the way, anon. "The group jumped, a booming, harrowing voice echoing through the forest."
>>43521415Disgusting. I'm going to go through my copy and paint it with editor's marks. Or rewrite it better, idk.
>>43521419I've already gone through it once because he uses ellipses haphazardly and inconsistently. One page has ten of those errors. Sometimes they're right next to normal ellipses.And my personal favorite. Maredevil times. Not medieval. Or maredieval. Maredevil. This is what greens are missing.He even has a Patreon that is mostly art from others, not him. This has an ISBN number, anon.
>>43521435>This has an ISBN number, anon.FUCK. I really need to kick myself in the ass and write.
>>43521415>The porn-addicted connigger who does nothing but waste art on his shitty OCs is a bad writerWho could've guessed?
>>43521435this picture looks so wonderfully schizo
>>43521437It isn't that you need to write, you just need to find a way to publish. Ebonyglow used to more openly brag about how he fucked Welost. That's why you see a lot of art pop up of his stuff. Ebony also commissioned a lot of porn of his ponysona. Squirming his way up the Marefair ranks to being a part of running it means he has a bigger platform to shill his shit. I bet you he'll forever brag about having his stuff published and never want to talk about the raw errors that went ignored by how many others.Shitting on him aside, I wonder how many sponsors read that and were happy that a third of their con book was that. I haven't even gone into the weird attempts to pad it out. Not just random art in the pages but multiple occurrences of what looks like triple spacing. This is on fimfiction too right now.
>>43521456>Ebonyglow used to more openly brag about how he fucked WelostThey had the sex?!
>>43521458When you go to one of your first cons you don't wanna hear a guy bragging about the gay sex he has with an artist. Maybe it is brag worthy because it means more coom bait.
>>43521415>>43521435some litwho is a shite writer, so what?We aren't that great either, but we know well enough to not attach our names to it
>>43521218>>43521258>>43521345>>43521360Or maybe it’s because none of you are following the traditional green formatNo your green that is >multi posts long >almost nearing text limit each post >just goes on and on>and almost always a headache to read is not a green. Greens are one to two posts long maximum, they are SHORT, some of you faggots apparently don’t understand this and proceed to flood a thread up with your shit then bitch and moan when nobody wants to read your green. As >>43521258 said>Meanwhile draw threads are always populated because drawing can be high or low effort. It can be fun or funny or just coom bait. It's more easy to consume. Anons love to consoom easy stuff. Most of the shitty greens I see being made nowadays are an unformatted mess of 3+ text limit long posts that nobody is going to read.Keep your shit concise and to the point if you’re going to make a green.>redditspaceOn another note any of you guys read through Mendacity recently? I think I got up to chapter 7, interesting story and Alovandra is charming in her own way.though I hardly read fimfics anyways with how easily I get distracted
>>43521559sry ur post is 2 long can u mak it shortr so i cna read ?
>>43521559>fimfiction>2012
>>43521559>Greens are one to two posts long maximum, they are SHORT, some of you faggots apparently don’t understand this and proceed to flood a thread up with your shit then bitch and moan when nobody wants to read your green.Fucking TRVTH. Seeing these novel-length, 30k word greens in half the threads I see is annoying as shit. When I want to read a green, it's at least 1k-2k words long where each line isn't filling up half the screen.
>>43521578What greens are like that?
>>43521559>>43521578Share some greens that do it right. Share yours, even.
>falling for the baitYou guys are retarded. Anyways Anons have been posting long form and short form greens since the beginning. If you don't like the green, then read something else or make it yourself. Simple as.
>>43521608There's always that 1% chance it isn't bait but someone who never grew out of an extreme niche. So little discussion that it can be hard to tell if someone is or isn't stuck to reading the same ten greens from 2013.
>>43521559>how easily I get distractedIf you have ADHD, no one is going to respect your opinions on story length at all. Rightfully so
>>43521218The whole board is dying and slowing down. You could say it's already dead as something like 90% of the traffic is already gone.Also I think people with an attention span are dying out. You can't look at a green for 30 seconds and go "yes this makes me coom, pls moar" so they get little attention. Plus, people do read greens. They just don't usually comment on them and there's no way to upvote so you don't see it happen. I switched to CYOA's for this reason. Also the concentration of autists on this board is growing. Autismos can't into reading because proper writing doesn't tell them how they should feel or how to interpret the characters' described actions. So, they get confused and angry and quit. I've adjusted my with somewhat to this and try to be extra clear, but they just don't get it a lot of the time anyways.
>>43521258>interest in them have diedNot really. The same percentage of Anons are interested in them. The issue is that the community is smaller and smaller.My best guess is this board maybe has 2000-3000 lurkers and posters combined. From moot we know that the lurkers and posters ratio is about 10:1. Let's say that a third of that is interested in greens. That makes ~600-900 readers across the whole board and 60-90 of them actually responds/reacts to green being posted.I currently follow 3 greens. Besides me, one of them maybe gets 1 or 2 responses, the other one maybe 3-5, and there is one which only I'm responding to regularly (maybe it gets 1 other response every 2-3 updates).It's just the usual logarithmic decline.
>>43519982>>43520086johnny test
>>43521580>What greens are like that?I dunno anon, maybe every single fucking green in the Anonstallion thread for the past year? Or the Anonmare thread? Or every yandere thread since it's made a comeback? Even /rgre/ gets flooded with long greens sometimes.
>>43522173but long greens are a /rgre/ classic
>>43522273But Anon, he PERSONALLY doesn't like them! That means they're BAD!
>>43522173Aren't short greens just shitposts or ideas? There are already enough idea guys that make an OC or have an idea but can't actually do anything with it. Do (You) just want the equivalent of YouTube shorts in word form?
>>43522513No, short greens are greensstuff which doesn't fit the character limit is just a story. Presenting them as a greentext is a weird formation of people mixing the ideas. You can just post stories and not make them greentexts, and most of the more famous 4chan stories were posted in that way.
>>43522518OK cool.I'm still going to continue my longform green.
>>43522518What about when the character limit was 2k instead of 3k? Even the board itself promotes longer greens if we go off of your logic.
>We have people arguing over the proper way to abuse the quoting feature on an imageboard to write storiesAutism, my anti-drug
