@Mio they still had that massive celebration at the end of ROH.

I know my theory will never be confirmed (and is probably wrong), I just like it because it appeals to the flawed but ultimately kind and understanding nature of the ponies

What I like is how open the social system in Equestria is. I mean look at how easily Rarity assimilated into Elite in "Sweet and Elite", it is possible for really anyone with not even that much work, to get where they want to go in life without much hassle.

Mage: But Rarity was accepted because of her connection to Celly, which is a pretty big deal.

@crowlover We would appear to be at an impasse, then. tongue

Ah, the glories of divergent fanon. They all have the same end result, so we can reach those results through infinite paths.

rarity is really just lucky in sweet and elite when she met fancypants. She mentioned staying at the cstle and bam. I doubt aj, rd or any other mane six would have assimilated. And fancypants was kinda chill

With a wife like that who can blame him?

@Lurker Yes, let us part amicably.

[down]It would seem so. Until I saw to what you were referring.

[up][up] Am I the only one who parsed that in an extremely dirty manner?

Edit: Aww, you got rid of the typo.

Rarity did so well because she got into Fancypants' good graces. That's the only reason

Rarity's personality also had something to do with it. A lot to do with it infact. Fancypants could have adored her but the only reason people kept wanting her around was because she fit in so well with the society. Fancy just jump started her acceptance, it was her that made it work

[up] Yeah, but when I say "the only reason" I'm always refering to the source of whatever it is I'm talking about

Fancypants started it, and Rarity would've floundered without him despite her personality [lol]

Are you done with chapter 1 btw?

Yeah, Fluttershy probably wouldn't have done so well in the same situation.

I am :D

I also disagree somewhat, aside from those two snobby ponies the Elite of Canterlot....Don't seem that elitist. Rarity probably would have landed where she did, even without Fancypants help, it just would have taken a lot more time then it did.

yeah they only ponies that were flat out elitist jerks were Jet Set and Uppercrust, if Rarity hadn't encountered them before any other high society pony she might have been fine even without Fancypants.

What's Jet Set's name a pun on? I could never figure it out.

Now, because I can't resist:

Upper Crust cries.

Jet Set: Don't cry, baby! Jet will wipe out that nasty pony's social life for you!

Rarity's social life is wiped out.

Upper Crust: Oh Jet, you're so bad.

Hello, Applelight. We're discussing pony trends and I made a bad Avatar: TLA reference. We also discussed Pony/Le Rein crossovers and why the Mane 6 aren't treated like celebrities more often.

Hi Crowlover!

That's a good point. Why aren't the mane six more famous?

@Applelight Lurker suggested pony culture entirely based on hype/always dressing in style, while Ginger suggested Willing Mind Wipes. Guess which one I'm biased towards.
