                          1. @maou There's improvement, 8ut it's still 8ad.

                            1. @arachnidsgrip Why don't you teach me a little something something?

                                1. @arachnidsgrip You think I'm joking?

                                  Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:06:43 UTC from web
                                  1. @maou I think you are implying things.

                                    Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:08:13 UTC from web
                                    1. @arachnidsgrip Well that too. It's mostly genuine.

                                      Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:08:42 UTC from web
                                      1. @maou Well I can't teach you to sketch if you want. I rarely actually finish a dr8wing, as you know. I've started drawing on my phone now, and it turns out pr8tty well.

                                        Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:12:35 UTC from web
                                        1. @arachnidsgrip Yeah, any help would be appreciated. I have aspirations.

                                          Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:13:13 UTC from web
                                          1. @maou I hope the aspirations are low, 8ecause I'm a terri8le teacher. I mostly just insult you, and tell you to 8e more like me.

                                            Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:23:03 UTC from web
                                            1. @arachnidsgrip We'll find out. Get on the DM.

                                              Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:23:40 UTC from web
                                              1. @maou I feel stupid asking, 8ut what's the DM?

                                                Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:24:28 UTC from web

                                                1. @arachnidsgrip It was direct messaging.

    2. @arachnidsgrip Late night. Place's a bit dead.

      Tuesday, 14-May-13 07:54:05 UTC from web
      1. @nerthos I'm surprised it's still alive.

        Tuesday, 14-May-13 07:55:14 UTC from web
        1. @arachnidsgrip It's had it's up and downs but the "loyal" people is still here and new people join regularly. I personally still enjoy it.

          Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:00:04 UTC from web
          1. @nerthos I can't consider myself loyal, but I've 8een here long enough to watch it's steady decline.

            Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:02:00 UTC from web
            1. @arachnidsgrip It's relative, really. The glory days are most probably not coming back but that's closely tied to a change in the nature of the fandom over the years. The everypony's friend with everypony days are gone now that the whole thing has settled down, so activity has moved to less social networks. Still there's a portion of the fandom that looks for an actually social site and ends up here.

              Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:05:17 UTC from web
              1. @nerthos *waves*

                Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:08:51 UTC from web
          2. @nerthos 'loyal'.

            Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:08:22 UTC from web
            1. @flamingpandaomg Yeah the people that sticked to this place since 2011

              Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:08:41 UTC from web
              1. @nerthos It's weird that it's 8een two years.

                Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:10:36 UTC from web
                1. @arachnidsgrip It is. It didn't really seem that it'd last that long. Back in 2011 I would have said that by now it'd already be pretty dead. But things were not like that, and here we are.

                  Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:12:10 UTC from web
                  1. @nerthos I feel like it's mostly the lame stragglers now. I stopped with it, 8ecause I didn't like the new types of people. Or then again may8e I was confused why everypony else got into it. ::::P

                    Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:15:15 UTC from web

                    2. @arachnidsgrip There's some good new people. Most don't last, but some stay. I'll agree though that it seems in some cases lame how people react to the show like it was a novelty even though it's been on the air since 2010 and most people don't even consider bronies something revolutionary anymore. The pony thing makes up now only a small portion of the talk on this site, but the community somehow survived. More than one person doesn't watch the show anymore and yet they stick to this place due to the people that still posts. I think this community, even if the site itself dies, will outlast the fandom.

                                        1. @flamingpandaomg Playing with a bit of web software in a VM. I might send out a link a bit later :o

                                          Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:49:46 UTC from web
                                          1. @neurario Cool ^^ I'll check it out once I'm up and moving

                                            Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:50:35 UTC from web
                      2. @nerthos Eh, I got into it from trolling with ponies. When I finally watched the show I ended up 8asking in the delicious irony of how much I liked it. 8ut my main entertainment came from irony and the reactions of others.

                        Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:27:31 UTC from web
                        1. @arachnidsgrip Yes, that has kind of died down as the years went by. It is only fun when the joke's new and people don't expect it. Right now the reaction is just "oh cool" or "oh you're one of those" and nothing more.

                          Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:30:17 UTC from web
                          1. @nerthos I still see people that don't get that it's old and still try to 'troll' with ponies, if you can even call it that. I know people at the local game shops I go to that are still o8noxiously into it. They try to get attention anyway they can. I still have my Rarity hooked on my 8ag, 8ut I leave it at that.

                            Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:35:41 UTC from web
                            1. @arachnidsgrip Thankfully there's none of those outside of conventions here. Outside of those places the most brony thing I've seen was this guy at a cinema who asked for a brofist when he saw I had a RD pin on my bag. Even in conventions I have the luck to be percieved by "trolls" as kind of scary, so they bother other people instead. In any case I never went past the casual pin and buying a magazine now and then. I'm not one to wear rainbows or weird headgear.

                              Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:40:04 UTC from web
                              1. @nerthos I've never 8een to any type of convention for anything. It's filled with people that I would just hate on too much.

                                Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:45:42 UTC from web
                                1. @arachnidsgrip Conventions are fun when you go with a group of friends since they're basically big piles of conversation topics. Alone, they aren't worth the bus money. They're also a good place to do bussiness with certain things, like selling small merch, MtG/pokemon/yugioh/whatever cards and cosplay stuff. Now and then you can get something cool for cheap, like old comics.

                                  Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:50:27 UTC from web
                                  1. @nerthos I'm into MtG, and if there's any group of people I don't want to 8e around it's the MtG crowd.

                                    Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:55:00 UTC from web
                                    1. @arachnidsgrip I never got the opportunity to play it, and I'm not willing to buy a deck of card for something I don't know if I like. They're good as currency though. You can easily make some bucks from a deck or even assorted cards. Maybe when I manage to get a certain deal running I'll start playing until I manage to sell all cards.

                                      Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:58:26 UTC from web
                                      1. @nerthos It's fun if you can find someone to play it with. Otherwise... not so much.

                                        Tuesday, 14-May-13 08:59:18 UTC from web
                                        1. @flamingpandaomg I have friends who are into it.

                                          Tuesday, 14-May-13 09:01:56 UTC from web
                                      2. @nerthos It's crazy expensive to get into right now, and the community has gotten to the point of everyone 8eing so over critical and 8asically worship pro players. I've 8een playing forever, and I win enough so that I never need to actually pay for anything. I would suggest 8orrowing a deck from someone. 8ut I'm almost positive if the deck is worth less than $400 you'll lose 8adly.

                                        Tuesday, 14-May-13 09:02:59 UTC from web
                                        1. @arachnidsgrip Yeah, buying cards individually is expensive, but buying bulk and selling them is profitable. I need to check some local import restrictions to see if I'll have problems getting a 1500 cards box into the country. If I can get them past customs, then it's all good.

                                          Tuesday, 14-May-13 09:10:13 UTC from web
                                        2. @arachnidsgrip What about Draft?

                                          Tuesday, 14-May-13 09:14:22 UTC from StatusNet Desktop
                                          1. @ceruleanspark I mostly do drafts. They're the most entertaining thing for me, 8esides sealed.

                                            Tuesday, 14-May-13 09:18:12 UTC from web
                                            1. @arachnidsgrip As a comparitively new player, I like limited formats because I just don't have either the card pool or the money for the various flavours of constructed.

                                              Tuesday, 14-May-13 09:22:45 UTC from StatusNet Desktop
                                              1. @ceruleanspark Constructed gets 8oring anyway, everyone plays the same decks. And they're very easy to 8eat if you know what you'll 8e up
