So, apparently Ponyarchive has gotten a ceast and desist order... and the hosters have decided not to do anything about it. I wonder how that'll work out for them...

From Eq Daily: "Note: People from Ponyarchive have stated that they will not be taking the site down."

Apparently the C&D terms are that they take down everything, up to and including the banner image.

I can see why not, but Hasbro's been a reasonable company so far, and I can also see where they're coming from. It's not like it's that hard for us to just Keep The Tapes Circulating without the site anyways.

It's where you download your episodes, Rhyme Beat.

Hosting downloadable versions of all the episodes.

I think the main problem might be that they've hosted the iTunes versions; they can get away with Youtube rips, but ripping stuff from a source that charges for it might be an issue.

EDIT: Ninja'd.

So, reading Giving Love A Helping Hoof. It's pretty funny and fun to read, but the premise gives me the willies. No matter how you spin it, ending up in a romantic relationship with a gender-swapped version of yourself is not a good idea. It will, by definition, end up being a relationship that reinforces any bad habits and thought patterns you are prone to.

I try, ginger; I try.

Anyone else have any screencaps that need de-bannering? I enjoyed the hell out of that last one and want to see if I can do it again.
Can think outside the box, inside the chimney and would really like a Tylenol, thanks.

[up][up]That's why On A Cross And Arrow makes me cringe even though it's so good. I want to revisit it but I can't.

[up] I don't think it's that bad. Is it the ultimate expression of incest? Why yes it is but it's consensual and that makes it ok.

It's been quite a while sense I last posted. Anyone mind filling me in?

Also new episode is quite epic. I loved how boss adult Spike will become, alas his love between himself and Rarity will never last forever.

Not only was it sick and creepy, but it was Rarity and Elusive! The amount of narcissism going o made the entire section almost unbearable. People say Trixie should marry a mirror but they hadn't a clue of Rarity's dark side.

The Hate had been Doubled in other words.

@Mousa At least they have a high self-esteem, unlike some other ponies we know.

It's not so much the incest as it's probably not a good idea to be in a relationship with someone whose personality is so much like yours (and in the case of these fics, exactly like yours). The flaws get reinforced, as Mousa said, without a healthy counterbalance.

Also it might just be me, but isn't it actually harder to like someone who is exactly like you, or at least who shares your flaws?

And now that I think about it, the premise of the story is pure Accidental Nightmare Fuel. Ponies who were created solely to be the love interest of the main six? They don't have any choice in the matter of their deepest feelings? It's similar to the reasons why I really, really hate Haruhi.

[up] I was going to point out that I would absolutely hate anyone I met who was just like me, but didn't because it might just be a case of lingering self-loathing.

Thanks again for "de-Hubbing" the Spike + Rarity pic, Rich. It's much appreciated.

It's a Foe Yay thing, but the Foe is one-sided. I don't think Pinkie is capable of hate.
