Magic.

So, with friendship, story?

pony mechs. Speaking of which I remember seeing a pic somewhere which had the CMC piloting various battlemechs, I think it had Sweetie piloting a Hell's Horses Balius. I found that pretty fitting, too bad someone hasn't drawn anypony piloting a Thunder Stallion, though. Why would Ponies use humanoid 'mech designs anyway?

Who would like to see a flashback episode featuring the cast in their respective schools?

That would be pretty interesting, especially if some of the ponies were classmates in the past. I.e. like if AJ, Rarity, and Cheerilee were all in the same class or something. And got up to shenanigans.

That'd be pretty cool, Applelight. I'd definitely be interested in an episode highlighting the Mane 6's school life.

It's been on my wish list for some time. I would especially like to see how different they were as kids, in personality.

Ep 20 done: spike, you best learn how to sing fast cuz the blues gonna get you soon.

Heh, "Crossfire."

As far as R34, every fandom has porn; that's the whole reason R34 is a thing in the first place. The only reason MLP's 34 is singled out is because it seems to confirm the popular view that bronies are all sexual deviants. In reality, the only thing noteworthy about it is the sheer amount of 34 the show generates, but that's easy enough to explain: it's partly a natural consequence of the show having such a large fanbase, and partly a natural consequence of the show's focus on interpersonal (interponial?) relationships making for such ripe shipping bait, of which porn is a logical extension.

I enjoy 34 for just about any media I'm a fan of. Why should MLP be any different?

If that were true, AJ wouldn't have been last in her class to get her cuite mark.

Wryte, I think the term would be "interequine relations" if you were going to go that far. Personally, I find it a bit strange when folks take their phrasing that far though. Besides it would indicate that ponies don't consider themselves a people.

@ Drenius i agree that's what i was saying, the researcher wanted to see if the media view of bronies as deviants was true, so he created an unbiased study to learn the truth, and found us to be normal, people that just enjoy an amazing show.

@ Whyte pretty much. plus the more people complain about R34 the more people will make JUST to piss them off.

like the guy the made the Lyra Plushie who admitted he only did it because he wanted to piss of the fandom.

summary of my reaction to spikes crush◊

From the look of the url someone's already stated this.

heh biggest secret EVAH!

@Story Actually, that easily could still have been the case. She didn't get her cutie mark until she made it back to Ponyville from Manehattan, which would have been quite some time after the Sonic Rainboom.

Haha, that gif is great, mainly because of the disapproving dude. Anyone know what film it's from?

I'll admit right here right now, that I like sexy humanised ponies. It's just an unavoidable part of me.

We are not talking about Rule 34 here.

Do you guys seriously want to get this thread locked!

I don't think there is anything necessarily wrong/against the rules with discussing the concept of r34 (as it applies to mlp), so long as we don't go into the details.

I guess with the costumes, it's hard to tell if anypony is a blank flank.

exactly

Yeah, I mean, it's not like we're linking examples or anything.

Yeah, there's nothing wrong with noting that it exists as long as we don't actually post anything pornographic.

I'm not a huge fan of most of it (mainly because when it's ponies it doesn't do anything for me), but I can understand the humanizations at least.

As was said earlier, I think it's a combination of the fact that the fandom is huge and heavily oriented towards shipping. It would honestly be kinda weird if there wasn't r34.

As for AJ's cutie mark comment, it's entirely possible that she was in a different class that year and later got moved. It's not exactly uncommon for students to get held back or pushed forward depending on their development.

When I think about that one episode "Party Of One", I just think about how Pinkie Pie is a strange combination of scary and funny when she's angry!

The sequence of RD and Fluttershy lying their way out of the party never ceases to amuse me.

The fact that their story is the only one Pinkie believes once she starts putting things together is what really sells it for me.

[Edit] Am I missing something about AJ's cutie mark? Why would being in the same class as Rarity mean she couldn't be the last one to get hers?
