Love and tolerance people. I am not happy how things are devolving into creepy sexual innuendo in here. #admin

@cabal Terribly sorry mate. I digress.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 03:50:30 UTC from web -
@nerthos No, it's innuendo, as what happens everytime usually. Kind of why I'm not on much, I oddly have this happen a lot... Even when I try to have a normal conversation.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 03:51:12 UTC from web-
@mrdragon I belive it is the dirty mind set of most people in late night rdn.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 03:52:22 UTC from web-
@decibel Most likely, I don't come on much as it is anymore, more so that I can never find a conversation worth joining in to. Or just can't find the feel to stay on other then lurk a little.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 03:54:42 UTC from web-
@mrdragon Same, either the conversations I have last for short amounts of time, or I say hello and I digress into lurking because I was ignored.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 03:56:31 UTC from web-
@decibel I get ignored on quite the occasion sometimes.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 03:57:13 UTC from web-
@mrdragon Sometimes the chat just goes too fast, but sometimes it annoys me when there is only like 3 people talking and nopony acknowledges anything.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 03:59:01 UTC from web-
@decibel I'll put it blunt, I just don't feel welcome all that much.

@mrdragon I honestly feel that way too, I used to feel pretty high on the well known list but as time progressed that spot dropped continuously. Alas that might be the reason I left for 3 months

@mrdragon If you feel that way, we can stop with the silliness if you want. I'd like to talk to you more. :3
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 03:56:58 UTC from web-
@pinhooves Oh no, that's just a joke that's played around, I mean in general it'd be nice for more conversations in to general area.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 03:57:41 UTC from web-
@mrdragon It would be nice if I could have a general conversation with you more often. You are a good friend after all. :3
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:03:25 UTC from web-
@pinhooves This is the interesting part (and what I back up with) what is there you can talk about?
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:05:03 UTC from web-
@mrdragon That's the problem. I can never think of anything interesting to talk about. :c

@tenmihara I know that's true. I mean other things. I'm never good at starting conversations about things other than ponies.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:08:10 UTC from web-
@pinhooves I know that feeling =P Large part of why I can't start relationships @_@

@tenmihara @decibel @astra @pinhooves Yes, you can see I am not the only pony that's been thinking this way. Back in July talks about ponies were always the top of the list of things here, there was non of this hate or other rubbish. Then came the drama... well everypony, that sort of started the ball rolling. Then came the sexual references (I had a part in this and I will admit that this was partly my doing) and then of course added was the harassment that was being given to the drama creators, then the trolling on to the drama creators for fighting back. And now. Here we are, stuck in a crossfire of wtf do we do. We have the rules now, it's just a case of timely discipline to get some of the old talking back.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:10:28 UTC from web-
@mrdragon Every community does this, MFU to anyone who may know Magical Frolicking Unicorns. They let a few popular people go and then they digressed into a solely competitive TF2 group after being a fun group. I've seen the fall of many great fun groups, renas idling group and the F.I.S.H are two groups I enjoyed but died out. I do NOT want that to happen to this place
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:13:51 UTC from web-
@decibel It won't happen, over time things will steady, I am sure of it.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:19:06 UTC from web-
@mrdragon No doubt in my mind. RDN is a strong community held to feather by ponies, and unbreakable bond that holds bronies together.

@mrdragon I have decided the rules are frigging wack. See, I'm not even allowed to say a word because the mods don't like it, even though no one cares, and pretty much everyone active is over PG-13. I honestly don't understand why anyone would do that except to pis- sorry, annoy us off.
-
@derps The pint is, when having a general conversation, there really is (in my eyes) no need for obscenities in your sentence. So I really so no issue with that rule, but I prefer to greet and talk to people with a gentlemanly manor in real life when having a standard conversation. But of course a lot of the times talks on here are drama or sexually driven, which are in dire need to be stamped down and pushed back.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:17:43 UTC from web-
@mrdragon So you are saying that the rules are made by what the mods prefer, not what te users prefer?
-
@derps No, I never said that, I was stating my own personal opinion on the need for obscenities in a sentence. Other then that, the PG-13 is there because we follow a show based around that area.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:20:34 UTC from web-
@mrdragon Your opinion closely resembles a lot of other mod's opinions. Also, we rarely talk about ponies anymore except when an episode airs. So I don't see why that rule's there.
-
@derps To bring back the pony talk.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:25:03 UTC from web-
@nerthos RDN talking about ponies? The scandal!
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:27:15 UTC from web
-
-
@derps The rules were created by the users, the users gave the rules to the admins. And then everypony but a few were happy. We are not going to change one thing for a couple of users, the PG-13 is based off the show we follow, had a look at the name of late, see those words "Rainbow Dash"? yeah? She's from a cartoon for children, that don't swear, that don't cuss. You see were I am going now? We follow a show for children, and this site was set up to TALK and DISCUSS about the show. So yes, that rule is staying and is quite needed to a lot of people.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:26:43 UTC from web-
@mrdragon Okay, a poll here, who here is over 13 amd watches this show FOR 13 year olds and younger?
-
@derps Your just picking things up now to make this place how you want it too be, the rule stays, and to answer your question a good 90% of RDN is over 13.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:30:51 UTC from web-
@mrdragon Well, I obviously can't do that. I'm trying to show everyone what's happened. Right now, I am complaining. I'm just going to forget the rules, it's up to them if they want to change what I've pointed out here.
-
@derps Okay, just stop already. For real, it's not that big a deal. I personally do most of my swearing to make Colfax rage at me.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:37:00 UTC from web-
@thatonepony Too bad you fail at that.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:37:43 UTC from web-
@colfax I totally believe you.

@derps If the rules need to be changed then a group can be formed to 'fight' them and through community one-upmanship show us the error of our ways, other then that pony needs to be spread in to this community more so then the Drama and drunk/sex ridden posts that are showing. I shall be for this point on keeping them off of here myself. And partaking in discussions of standard interest.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:37:28 UTC from web-
@mrdragon last time I checked, we are posting this stuff on.our own free will. And by the sounds of things, you just said "sure, make a group to protest, but I'm taking away people who post drunk/sex and otherwise, so anyone in your group will be removed."
-
@derps If a rule or action is wrong, and the community can back up what they want then they must be listened to. And I am failing to see were. "so anyone in your group will be removed." came from, as there we're no words in there that said such things. But I do appreciate trying to change my words for other meanings, it means a lot to the thought going in to this.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:48:28 UTC from web-
@mrdragon "I shall be for this point on keeping them off of here myself." Pretty sure that means "keeping people off this site that say certain things"
-
@derps That is were you are wrong, that was a personal opinion about my actions that have been corrupting the RDN time-line and community, I shall be keeping my actions of that area of RDN and reverting to normal discussion.

@mrdragon I disagree with this. I refer to a Mr David Washington when I say "Being stupid is not a democracy"

@ceruleanspark Oh, also, the in context button for the whole rules conversation redirects to a cabal post.

@derps At the time @ceruleanspark and I drafted the rules, there was already an unofficial language cap in place; we just carried it over into our suggestions, which then became official. It's not new.

@derps Yes, and, unfortunately, that tends to die off after a few hours. More than eight hours after the episode, and trying to talk about ponies leaves you feeling like you're interrupting the REAL conversations that are taking place. :/

@derps The rules were made by users, not by mods. Then they got sent to the admins, and posted as official rules.

@mrdragon There are four users here who can make something funny out of innuendo. I'm with you in this one.

@mrdragon I remember the good days when I first joined. I really wish it was like that again. :(

@pinhooves @madflavors predicted that the time may come around during the winter break, what would really bring back that time was if @sweetiebelle99 was back.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:17:08 UTC from web -
@pinhooves Time and patience, it'll return.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:19:19 UTC from web-
@mrdragon I don't care how long it takes. I'm happy knowing this could happen. :)

@mrdragon Well then, let's get things back on track. Anypony seen any good movies lately? If not, I recommend seeing The Muppets. Clever, fun and musical, it captures everything the Muppets were in their prime ^^
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:19:45 UTC from web-
@tenmihara Haven't seen that yet, but I'm hoping to sometime soon. I've been hearing a lot of really good things about it, and I can't tell you how many times I watched the original Muppet Movie when I was young.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:30:56 UTC from web-
@astra Do it! It was so awesome ^^ And the celebrity cameos are plentiful and humourous

@mrdragon Heck, I just come here to try to talk about ponies, try to be positive and supportive, talk a bit about stuff I think someone might find fun (in a positive way), that sort of thing. Yawn. Dull. Apparently, that's not the point of this place any more. Acting like a drunk/druggie and/or jerk? Sexual innuendo? Dialog that's more at home on a gamer chat full of kids who still think constant swearing, racism and homophobia, and being insulting is cool? (No offense to gamers or the younger set; hopefully folks know where I'm coming from here.) That's GOLD! Right to the top of the popular lists! Keeps this place hopping! Sad, and why I find it more and more difficult to keep coming back.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:22:47 UTC from web-
@astra As you have noticed my timing on the site lacks as well, because of the reasons you have stated as well. It's just not a place I wish to be around, because of that area of mind set. But it has gotten a little better, and I am quite frank going to try and stop my behaviour in that silly area to try and help it now.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:24:57 UTC from web -
@astra Then if you're going to complain about it, why do you come back? To tell us we're a useless form for your entertainment? I don't really think swearing is cool, (plus not a lot of us are actually kids anymore) I just like to use it because I think it is a better way to express yourself.
-
@derps I keep coming back because, occasionally, some nice people show up who haven't been chased away, and, frankly, I still I feel that I belong here more than the jerks. Either that, or they need to change the name and topic of this place to something other than My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:45:31 UTC from web-
@decibel Yeah, but that person was not on this site, therfor that user could not have been driven away by the users of this site.
-
@derps False, I have carried out conversations with @pachiepie beforeon this very site, last connection was in august. 3 months ago. When the drama was at a hightened level I believe.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:51:34 UTC from web-
@decibel No. I did not ask whether you had a conversation with her, unless in that conversation you or someone else on this site motivated her to leave.
-
@derps I can bring up names, but I shan't. Privately yes I will give you a name but not publicly, and yes a conversation and courses of actions at that time did cause her to leave. One person specifically.

@derps I don't know whether to include @princessluna on this list, because she does still peek in once every few weeks, but nowhere near like she used to. @lunaepona, another former regular, hasn't been back in over four months now. What ever happened to @brohoof? Went from regular poster, to gone, once again, about four months ago. @neuroaster. Gone. Four months ago. And, of course, @sweetiebelle99. Gone five months ago, came back briefly three months ago, gone again. All came here to talk about ponies. All gone now. Shall I continue, or am I wasting my breath to begin with because you're not really going to listen to any of this, anyway?
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:51:07 UTC from web-
@astra I think we should all take turns redashing @sweetiebelle99 just to relive the memories.

@astra I'm...kinda on that list. But not due to being scared off by trolls. I actually kinda like them, but I felt the exact opposite in my first couple encounters with @carcino.

@astra @modulusshift Under musicssound, of course. Switched username recently.

@astra I do peek in now and again still :) I just haven't had much to say lately
-
@princessluna WOOHOO! Yay, glad you're still nosing in here. And hope you find more to say; always a joy to hear from you. :)
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:58:05 UTC from web-
@astra Maybe when this last final is over. Studying until Friday. Fortunately, time is on my side. :)
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 04:59:32 UTC from web-
@princessluna Yes, it is! Yes, it is! (Sorry, couldn't resist a Rolling Stones reference.) I hope that all goes well with that. :)

@astra Um, unfortunately, my fellow bronies on Google Plus are really showing a lack of interest in this site. I can only keep up with so many sites. I may still not be here very much. We'll see, I guess.
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 06:20:14 UTC from web-
@neuroaster Awww, lack of interest in things here? I'd express curiosity as to how things could improve to attract their interest, but that might be taken poorly by some here. Anyway, glad that you did get in with a good circle, there! And I do hope that you'll still nose over, from time to time. :)
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 06:23:04 UTC from web-
@astra It's always nice to feel welcome (((((HUGS)))))
Wednesday, 07-Dec-11 06:24:37 UTC from web-
@neuroaster Yay! #Hug back to you! And of course you're welcome here! (At least, I think so.) You were always one of the really nice ones here, from what I remember. :)

@astra Does school count?
Tuesday, 27-Dec-11 20:11:01 UTC from web-
@brohoof Hm. As stuff in life that keeps you busy? Definitely. As good stuff? Well, I suppose that depends on your point of view. (Some days, I'd love to go back to school, and stay there, for-EV-errrrr!)
