  1. ( !eqdaily so people see this ) The Tumblr ponies have a good side as well. One of the OC ask accounts, named BassDrop, posted this message 4 hours ago: ((I have four bottles of pills here. Empty. See ya guys.)) The entire Tumblr brony network galvanized and went into overdrive, tracking him down, praying for him, and working to find more information about him. They eventually figured out that he was a Marine, and was able to alert his unit's commander. He then worked with the suicide hotline and got him into hospital before death. Thanks to this incredible fandom, a person who might have died tonight is now still alive. Good work, bronies.

    1. @abigpony We still kept him from offing himself. Whether he's an attention horse or not, I still think that's a worthwhile achievement.

    2. @ans1 ughh, why would a Marine do that...

      1. @carcino I dunno, PTSD? You would have to ask him.

    3. @ans1 That's damn good to hear. Hope he gets the help he needs and doesn't just try again later.

    4. @abigpony But seeing the entire Tumblr network work together like that was amazing. Almost no RPing occured for a good 2 hours at least, at least on my dashboard. And I have about 200 of the pony RP accounts in my follows list.

    5. @abigpony It's like parting the Red Sea, Tumblr-wise.

    6. @abigpony I currently have the hots for Berry Punch, and some slightly weird fantasies involving her.

      Wednesday, 07-Sep-11 05:55:35 UTC from web
      1. @ladestitute Berry Punch is my favorite BG pony, and I have nothing to drink right now... ;_;

        Wednesday, 07-Sep-11 05:58:10 UTC from web
    7. @abigpony I've done a little RPing with my askablank account, but nothing snuggly. I've found that I'm quite good at writing horror RP n_n

    8. @abigpony I want a drunk Berry Punch to take my ponysona home from a party and then dress him in a dress and make-up...

      Wednesday, 07-Sep-11 05:58:04 UTC from web
    9. @abigpony True, true. At least it's not sex RP. Have you seen what's going on between the Rarity and Basil accounts?

      Wednesday, 07-Sep-11 05:58:38 UTC from web
    10. @abigpony Well, to put it simply, the Rarity acc gets the Twilight acc to use a shrinking spell on Basil (the dragon from ep 7) to... let things happen. Yeah.

      Wednesday, 07-Sep-11 06:01:17 UTC from web
    11. @abigpony Mostly cause Berry Punch is ineberibated, and doesn't really know what she's doing. I'm sure I'm not the only pony into that type of kink.

      Wednesday, 07-Sep-11 06:02:29 UTC from web
    12. @abigpony If I remember correctly, they went into private chat for the actual deeds. But still.....

      Wednesday, 07-Sep-11 06:02:41 UTC from web
    13. @carcino That's Tumblr for you.

      Wednesday, 07-Sep-11 06:02:59 UTC from web
      1. @ans1 GOOD THING I STAY FAAAAAR AWAY FROM IT

        Wednesday, 07-Sep-11 06:03:52 UTC from StatusNet Android
        1. @carcino I find it fascinating, in the same way one watches a train wreck.

          Wednesday, 07-Sep-11 06:04:44 UTC from web
    14. @abigpony Much clops were had by all involved, probably.

      Wednesday, 07-Sep-11 06:08:06 UTC from web
      1. @ans1 Considering the M:F ratio in this fandom, I shall say this - "Never before has heterosexual intercourse been so gay."

        Wednesday, 07-Sep-11 06:10:07 UTC from web
    15. @ans1 Thanks for the update on that. I lost track after I went to bed yesterday and was worried. I'm glad he's okay :)

      1. @gangstashy You're welcome! Are you one of the accountmods on there, or were you just an observer?

        Thursday, 08-Sep-11 07:22:33 UTC from web
        1. @ans1 Observer, but I follow like 10 pony blogs and a couple of them had reblogged this.

          Thursday, 08-Sep-11 07:24:00 UTC from web
          1. @gangstashy Ah. It was pretty crazy right when it happened, I follow something on the order of 180 pony blogs and got to see it play-by-play.

            Thursday, 08-Sep-11 07:25:00 UTC from web
            1. @ans1 God Damn that's a lot. I didn't even know that many existed. I just went back and counted, I follow 28, but only about half of those are active all the time.

              Thursday, 08-Sep-11 07:28:31 UTC from web
              1. @gangstashy I could get you a list of all the ones I follow if you want.

                Thursday, 08-Sep-11 07:30:11 UTC from web
                1. @ans1 Bahaha, like I need anymore in my dashboard. XD

                      1. @gangstashy Glad to be of service! If you want, you can take a look at mine as well. I just post pictures I've found around the ponynet. fishermanofponibooru
