I also doubt that the devs would throw away 60 dollars over some ponies.

You also realize that if you're banhammered, they keep the $60 because you broke the rules you agreed to for playing MWO in the first place. Sorta like what'd happen if someone got a Founder's package, was in the beta, and then blew the NDA.

Same thing as Something Awful. You break the rules for trolling, you don't get your $10 back.

Edit: Too many posts in the Pony thread without an image. Must fix!

On a positive note at least I finally got a link for possible mechs for MWO lol

That you did. And if you're good and follow the rules, I can guarantee you can even shoot up bronies in them!

And more Ponyhammer, cause what the heck. It's Lauren Faustperor.

Frankly id rather just shoot them up because theyre Mechwarriors not because theyre bronies, this whole thing got way miscontrued.


That ponyhammer pic is rather epic though.

Ok I am AMAZED that this thread has well over 5000+ responses. And I'm one of them.

Hon. Mechwarriors;



There is a feature to the forum posts here on MWO that is responsible for the endless trolling. That feature is this: every recently posted hot topic is scrolled through the main forum board from all of the threads. This is just about the first thing noticed by anyone visiting this site. "Let there be Pony" is 291+ glorious pages and occupys it's proportional share of all of the posts made in the MWO forums. There are a lot of people who carry thier grudges and nurse thier wounds from pony grafiti from the rest of thier web surfing experience. You could eleminate most of the trolling here by pulling "Let There Be Pony" from the main page tickertape line up. This would also reduce the face time given to this thread by the many thousands of people who visit MWO for Battletech interests.



I for one welcome our Troll overlords as there are innumerable additional folk who will not troll, but rather enjoy what has been posted regardless of thier never seeing any MLP FIM episodes. Complaining about and teasing the trolls appears to energize some of the brony posters. If you think a person is trolling, then Report him, don't heckle him or attempt to make him recant or provoke him to the point of requiring a ban hammer.



Treat people as people, not as thier behavior. This profesional, impersonal love is based on your integrity and a failure to use it speaks volumes more about you than anything you might have to say about another guilty party. Criminality/rules violations have a recourse in the report button and do not require an exercise in hen pecking.

Thankyou for your time in considering what I have said on the subject. I hope the reasoning and the pictures have informed and entertained.

Pony Script: The Ironic humor of a humanized Twily accepting a bounty on a pony Twily was not lost on me and seemed appropot to the point discussed.

I love people, they are so interesting, makes me glad I am one, cept for the furriness, and the bronieness... Anyway.... More ponies for us all to enjoy, for now just a song that I think should be the war marching song for any bronie based clan!!

And that, BTW is the real reason this thread lasts so long. Epic and awesome and funny. Oh, and our loving mod-commisars.



Just as planned.

Here is a rather good Fus Roh D'aaw pic of Flutershy and her penchant for vanquishing dragons.

There is a huge MLP thread in Jettisoned, we've asked that members keep MLP confined there. We also greatly appreciate that they've done so and we in turn help moderate the haters. That being said, merging this with the main thread.

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! What's going on!?!?!?!



Merged threads are so confusiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing!!!

Well bronies, you've finally made it to the big time. Thats twice now, I've been listening to Howard Stern this week and he has brought up MLP and the bronies.
But heres the real question, we got any cloppers in the house? lol
