Maybe that's what the next episode is about, because it involves her getting a cutie mark special.

Snails/Twist is popular, but I don't think I've really seen Snips/Twist.

Its not popular yet, but I've seen at two different fanartists ship Dinky/Snips. Yeah, I don't know either.

Also, Toy Ship: The Picture

Wait, I forgot which of those two was often paired with Twist.

CELESTIADAMMIT!

I remember there's one artist on deviantART where Snails is trying to woo a filly, 'cept she doesn't like him and she's already got a coltfriend.

Yay favourite fanon family :3

Anyways, have an epic PMV

Nope :I

Can you coment about this?

It took me a third viewing to realize that Rarity actually says "Woooeee iiis meee!" during her hammy regret scene in Sisterhooves Social. At first, I just thought she was moaning in unhappiness.

Also, weren't Snips and Twist standing next to each other in Return of Harmony?

Sure some of the acusations are very very serious for instance this that revelas that he has deep pshycological problems, that hes projecting towards the site. Not sure If I agree with them◊...

Regarding that reddit debate about Equestria Daily... Well, I'd be lying if I said I was completely pleased with the way the site currently works. I think some of that particular commentator's complaints are exaggerated and even contradictory, but I do feel that Equestria Daily has such an overwhelming importance in the fandom that Sethisto & Co should be very careful about the presentation. I literally could not get through the Thiessen interview because the constant use of pony-terms - the whole situation, really - was too awkward.

All the same, I am not sure what can be done about it. At best, you could maybe send in some very convincing emails to get the staff to tone it down a bit, but I'm not sure how willing they'd be to listen.

@ Death Cloud. Unfortunately, I think that guy has a point. Equestria Daily is the public face of the fandom and some of the stuff there doesn't help our image. The idea of making the creators of the show uncomfortable with the fandom makes me feel pretty darn crappy.

Well, if everybody here were to send in an e-mail....

Looking at Death Cloud's thing, I will admit the site is mismashed and poorly organized and it's why I don't go to it. I basically get all of my info from here or the Bronyville podcast.

Re: "Toy Ship: The Picture"

The Flapper Belle one needs to be linearted and colored. (At least, I think that's a Flapper Belle. I like the outfit, regardless.)

Re: "Meet the Hooveses"

While I can't say that I support this bit of fanon 100% (the Doctor Hooves thing, particularly), I can say that this picture is very heartwarming, and the art style isn't half bad.

Also, why does Sparkler look like she's going to murder someone in that last panel?

I don't find ED badly organized. In fact, I really don't see the problem with every different sort of media and news coming through the same "stream." I mostly don't care about stuff like PMVs, but I have no problem ignoring them. The tag system seems adequate to me for finding specific kinds of posts.

I've said it before, but it's definitely possible to enjoy something deeply without letting it define you. If we're creeping out the creators, then we're doing something wrong - maybe the individuals themselves, maybe the fandom as a whole. It's hard to make a call on that one, but really, when that starts happening, it's time to step back and take a look at ourselves, I think.

I think the main problem is that sometimes the site views itself as being primarily for the fans, and sometimes forgets that it's also basically the face of the fandom. Sort of like how I don't worry much about posting those stupid "Rainity" videos here because everybody knows it's a joke, but I definitely wouldn't if I thought that people who weren't part of the fandom looked to this thread as the main source of info about the show and the fandom, I probably wouldn't.

ED was created for the fans, not for outside observers, so in that light, stuff like inside jokes and using "everypony" and things like that are fine. The issue is that the site is shifting away from being primarily for fans and is being used to represent the fandom as a whole, and the content isn't exactly changing enough to reflect that.

The artist listed who's who in the description :P

Also, Twist was standing between Snips & Snails in "Return of Harmony". That, hussy, she's tearing the bromance apart! You never tear apart a bromance, even if its Those Two Guys!

I... Don't have anything to say on the matter with EQD. To me, it's just a site run by some guys who dig through pony stuff and promote some of the more interesting ones.

It's kind of like someone would go through TV Tropes for you and show you the stuff you would have looked for.

Though I don't read fanfiction.

Some of the fandom fanficting isn't that bad, it's basically what Lauren used to do herself. I bet it's the R34 and some of the uncomfortable creepy some of the less stable bronies have, as well as the uncomfortable amount of Fandumb.

No, I know that's definitely Sweetie Belle. I meant that I wasn't sure if that was a flapper outfit she's wearing, or something else.
