Allow me to repost some fantastic wisdom from a few dozen pages ago....

Y'know, I've been trying to figure out why we keep getting the occasional hater in a thread which is both clearly devastatingly popular and strangely out of the way. It's odd, right?

Except, I think I've worked it out, and it's brillant.

EVERYONE that posts in this thread is a brony.

Sounds crazy, right? But consider this: This thread has cleared over 200 pages. I don't think there are any other threads on this board that can even come close to making that claim. And a reasonable sized chunk of the posts in this thread are folks popping in to “hate” on ponies. Nothing motivates fans to action like someone trashing on their source of fandom.

So, clearly, the “haters” are trying to motivate the bronies so they will post moar stuff. It's an insidious plan, ingenious in its subtle complexity. Real haters wouldn't be helping to push the post count up.

Therefore, the “haters” must themselves be BRONIES! Secret Bronies who are trying to ensure that the obvious bronies in this thread continue to produce. And the wacky part is, its working. Every time a “hater” posts, they get a bunch in response.

Brilliant plan, fellows, absolutely brilliant. I stand in awe at your cunning.

And behold! 300+ pages and still the reigning champion of total posts in a single thread

ONWARD TO 400!

If I'd known the current MLP was going to have that kind of pedigree, I'd have shown up on day one.

....well, its more of a 4 way battle if you consider it.

1) Anti-Pony Groups (currently an unorganized conglomeration of players)
2) ELPMC (the original pony Merc Unit)
3) EQRG (the second major pony merc unit)
4) Pro-pony players unaffiliated with 2 or 3 (many found in other houses, merc units, etc)

It's well known that ELP and EQRG do not get along...at all...and coupled with the anti-pony groups you have a 3 way triangle of fun. The pro-pony units outside of these groups will likely A) be obliterated on their own join one of these two units (either in battles for the sake of pony and luls, or for keeps) or C) support the pony forces from their own units when and where possible. Or D), pull a Pinkie Pie and break the laws of physics.

How about option E. The Kobyashi Mareu...



I don't like to lose...

There are three pony tribes (or at least it was so in the beginning): Earth ponies (regular horses), Unicorns (horned ones), and Pegasi (winged ones). The Earth ponies have the magic of the land, so only they can farm and grow food. Unicorns have fancy magic, so they can use telekinesis and cast spells based on their unique talents as represented by their cutie marks (Rarity has a gemfinder spell and a cutie mark of three gems, for instance). Some Unicorns are special in that their talent is magic itself (Twilight Sparkle, for instance). Pegasi can fly, walk on clouds, and have weather magic. They basically control the weather all across Equestria except in the Everfree forest.

There are also royal Alicorns, or Pegasus-Unicorns, who contain all three traits in their bloodline, physically and magically, and form the Equestrian true ruling class. So far only three have been seen: The two immortal princesses and Cadence, Twilight Sparkle's sister-in-law. Interestingly, it is implied that the Alicorns aren't all-powerful, despite some being effectively deities. Some Unicorns can in fact possess more magic than any of the royal Alicorns. Twilight could easily beat up Cadence, and her brother Shining Armor is so powerful his force field can kick enemies all the way out of Equestria in an instant (with Cadence's help).

Filly is actually a term for young female horses. The term for a mature female horse is mare. A stallion is a male horse. So the previous division of filly vs stallion is incorrect because the main pony characters and the majority of female ponies in the series are young adults - hence mares. The characters themselves also make a distinction between when they were young fillies and now. It does appear that there are far more mares in Equestria than stallions. This of course reflects the population in most ranches and domesticated horse communities in the world. Mares are more preferred than stallions, plus usually only a few handpicked superior stallions (often retired racehorses) are allowed to mate with mares, to create the best breeds.

Ahh thanks, im kinda feeling stupid because i dont know a lot about horses

Yep, that is indeed a Pinkie Pie. If you went back far enough in the thread, you'd eventually find GIR and Pinkie Pie's tragic fall over a mutual love of cupcakes. This was a happier time...

The true measure of a fandom is the effort they put into their derivative works.
