I'm almost scared to use this, !hug
Sunday, 13-Nov-11 05:17:07 UTC from web-
@macpony55 Who are you hugging?!
-
@macpony55 I second this.
-
@pengawill This site has been through a lot
-
@ponyveteran nopony or everypony, I was manely just trying to give the group a post, I think everypony is scared to use this now
-
@macpony55 Why?
-
@ponyveteran Cause the last 3 or so groups related to this were deleted and the mods keep kiwiin about how they don't like the way it is used, they've really started restricting everypony so much that you have to watch almost everything you do on here. It makes me sad, the site was so much easier going when I first joined, I liked it better then. Also Eurobeat Brony's remix of Winter Wrap Up just started playing on my Ipod and I got all nostalgic since that is what I listened to first when I became a brony and joined this site.
-
@macpony55 I remember the time i first came here. It was bustling with activity. Everybody was so friendly. And i was able to be free. But now, It's like were under a civil war. Were being watched, every time we post something. The moderators were didn't even exist for me back then, but i know all of them now and what they do. It's sad how something so great can turn into something so sad and barren. But i see a day where the weight is lifted and bronies can be them selves again. No more restrictions and no more rules. Just people being people, Chatting freely and no one to watch over our shoulders. Some day...We will be have the freedom again...
-
@macpony55 I was just saying that i enjoyed your hug.
-
@ponyveteran I would just say move to a different site but this one feels special for some reason, I have no idea why but it just can't be replaced, no matter how bad it gets
-
@pengawill oh, well that's good. I saw you joined the group, #thismakesmehappy
-
@macpony55 That's because this is our home! The sight where bronies can relate! Not tumblr! Not Facebook! Not twitter! Those are used for everyone! And everyone has their own oppinion! But RDN is where we all share the same thought. My little pony, The thing that keeps this sight going! This is where all of the bronies can stay! Twitter is great and all, But it's not where we can all share the same idea! This site is where us bronies can stand without being hated upon unless you do something completely wrong. This is where we belong...This is where the bronies live,
-
@ponyveteran that is true, but I was thinking more like there are other pony sites and one could always create a new one, but none of them fell as welcoming as this. Here you know pretty much everypony and the conversation is kept current and is easy to keep up with. It's way I think the community should feel, it's one of the reason I come here even though I have an account on 5 other sites.
-
@abigpony They should but this site is more welcoming
-
@macpony55 the fact the mods are this way is because of the fact certain ponies turned this site from a nice social outlet. Into nothing more then a roleplaying dating site. It started out as a joke, but some took it to far. And now this is what happens. A page with the rules is now available, that is what the mods will be enforcing.
-
@mrdragon Oh hell yeah. Nice.
-
@mrdragon i can deal with that. Also hello i haven't seen you on in a while
-
@madflavors He's been spending some time dead, for tax purposes.
-
@madflavors Taco Belle! Can't believe I only just clicked on what that meant XD
-
@colfax gotcha
-
@haganbmj there's also a admin page, listening then all should you need to contact one.
-
@madflavors I moved house :P still waiting for net on Monday. So I've been poking around on my phone.
-
@madflavors How goes it?
-
@mrdragon So I'm to blame for all this
-
@mrdragon I read through them all a couple times, I'm just somepony that doesn't like seeing things change once I've gotten so used to them. To see something go from moving near perfectly with everything being open and free and most everypony following the rules then something happening and everything changing all the sudden and everything being stricter and more controlled just makes me sad. I can feel actual tension on here at times and I always wonder if that one or two comments will get some report of RP when I only meant it as a greeting or expression of something. And it's more than just the RP dating stuff, I've seen a good bit of trouble between mods and ponies on here, with both sides at fault. It just makes me sad to see something that was so free and open became so restricted and tense.
-
@mrdragon How's moving going? Is everything alright? :p
-
@mrdragon oh god im sorry to hear that i know how much moving blows believe me.
-
@tenmihara everything is going fine with me....with my story.....maybe not
-
@mrdragon Haha, checked that out a bit earlier - Good to see some non-RDN contact information listed too.
-
@macpony55 there's been a lot to blame, and yes it was perfect. If us mods had gotten off our arse and stopped the issues before they happened then we would of been fine, but it was left to go on and this is the result. It'll go back to normal, basic stuff in greetings for me is allowed. Actual rp, between two characters is not. That's the drawn line, and thats were it used to be.
-
@madflavors I'm about 1000 words deep into Ditzy Ch3 ^^;; Plenty more dramatic irony, particularily involving the circumstances of Canterlot
-
@tenmihara well done. way to keep chruning it out
-
@pinhooves its all over, were in and settled.
-
@madflavors it all went A-ok. :P
-
@mrdragon Getting comfortable with your new home?
-
@haganbmj tinkers idea would you believe, xD
-
@mrdragon well thats good. moving from our old house to where we live now was a HUGE pain. i still have nightmares about all the cardboard boxes
-
@mrdragon xD Makes sense. She can be tricky to get in touch with through rdn.
-
@pinhooves not really no to be honest. I just can't get the feel of it at the moment, will take sometime.
-
@mrdragon inb4 somepony abuses it, touching off yet another round of unnecessary drama.
-
@mrdragon Yeah, moving is no fun. Hopefully you'll feel at home soon. :3
-
@eaglehooves if they did I'd not hesitate to get rid of them on the spot. RDN has had enough crap, its time to fix it.
-
@pinhooves hopefully indeed good sir. Shouldn't be long.
-
@madflavors Next Stop: Manehattan! Also, Ditzy gets to hear the very first (or, technically second) DJ P0N-3
-
@mrdragon I agree with the RP rule, there's a site for that and it just clutters up the timeline. But I also feel as if a little is good as it is in the nature of the show that caused us all to become a community in the first place, that also makes it really easy to do. Now If anypony does anything like that, especially previous 'offenders', even in just the one comment, they are immediately assaulted. It just ruins the feel of it all.
-
@tenmihara sweet
-
@madflavors I actually used information from one of the New Appleloosans in Turnpike Tavern to set up the identity of the Wasteland's first P0N-3, as noted in chapter 6 of the main story
-
@macpony55 Agreed. There was somepony who was considering a *brohoof* as potentially reportable for RP. Seems if you ponify anything, people try to call you on it.
-
@mrdragon Wouldn't be a bad idea to introduce yourself to the new neighbors, right?
-
@macpony55 Rp is between characters, on here its normal people. The only reason it was bashed so hard was because if what certain people did, now we have that fixed we can ease up. Small time *hug* here and there with a actual message is not rp. *waves hello* hey RDN. Is not rp. We will be more lenient now its more under control.
-
@pinhooves we already know them all :P
-
@tenmihara smart thinking
-
@mrdragon Oh really? That's good to hear. :3
-
@madflavors I only used one of the statements though, as it seemed to be implied to be the correct one
-
@eaglehooves It's just them trying to do what they think will get them recognized. I ponify almost everything, it's kinda what sites like this are meant for, to give you a place to talk with ponies who will understand you and who share your interests. Actually, brohoof is probably the fundamental thing for this entire fandom, you try to take that away and you really have no right to be here.
-
@tenmihara regardless you're getting some good facts in there
-
@pinhooves yeah, my mother knows to many people xD
-
@mrdragon I still feel as if I have to be careful. Before I could just talk freely and I had nothing to worry about, I would slip up every now and then, but it never lasted long and I could continue on without even knowing I had done anything wrong. I do hope things loosen up, I miss the old RDN.
-
@macpony55 As long as you're not an annoying jerk then don't worry about it? xD
-
@macpony55 I miss the original RDN but with a bit of work things will be fine.
-
@macpony55 Just don't dribble all over your "internet girlfriend" in the public timeline and, to quote Wil Wheaton, don't be a dick, and you'll be fine.
-
@mrdragon Please define "original RDN"
-
@madflavors Indeed; when working within the world set out by somepony else, getting your facts straight is crucial. Thankfully, there's plenty of information available (Kkat likes descriptions XD). I've been rereading/relistening to chapter 16 for info abotu the Manehattan ruins
-
@haganbmj I've gotten no comments about being one and I have no intention of changing who I am, so I guess I'm good, at least with you, who I don't think I have ever talked to before. Hi.
-
@stumperman07 April/may/June time. And yes I know I was not on RDN then, I was drifting around since may.
-
@macpony55 Haha hey there - but yeah; that's all I'd really say on the matter. xD
-
@mrdragon ahhh yes seems like eons since then
-
@mrdragon At least it's nice to feel welcomed, right?
-
@macpony55 good, as hagan said, if your not a jerk just relax and enjoy
-
@haganbmj That's a nice, simple straightforward thing to follow, I like it
-
@madflavors times flown really.
-
@mrdragon 2/3rds of that period I didn't even know MLP had been rebooted... Seems like FOREVER ago.
-
@colfax I guess I'm good then
-
@eaglehooves I never knew till may, so it seems a while indeed.
-
@mrdragon I will try, and now I should probably go to sleep, goodnight! @madflavors @haganbmj @colfax and anypony else I was talking to and also everypony else on right now, goodnight!
-
@macpony55 Have a great nice mac!
-
@macpony55 goodnight
-
@macpony55 Via con huevos.
-
@mrdragon For some reason I thought you'd been here longer. For being here five days longer you seem to know more about how this place works than I do.
-
@eaglehooves I've been under tinkers command for sometime. The forums are ran by me and a friend :P
