@bronymike !vancouverbronies This is the Facebook link. http://www.facebook.com/groups/399904186700708/

!vancouverbronies For everyone that doesn't have a Facebook account tag me in a post with where and when you want the Barbecue. So far the suggestions for beaches have been Jericho Beach and Kits Beach.
-
@balthazar !vancouverbronies It's all about transit accessibility, not all of us drive. Weather is another factor too.
-
-
@jackzhang !bcbronies I don't really see the need for a forum, but if you guys wind up making one, at least promise me that any events being planned will still at least be mentioned in detail on here.

!bcbronies When I was in high school I was the biiiiiiiggest hipster, all the time doing stuff "because it's cool" or "to confuse people", which is all fine and dandy, I just don't want the fandom's image becoming somehow endangered as a result. Point is, do what you want, just be careful. Also, I monologue too damn much on RDN, huh?

@bronymike Pff, I know a bunch of people who monologue on here more than you. Maybe not more per post, but definitely more overall.

!vancouverbronies Dead in the water again... 2nd time I've tried to organize it and it falls flat. If the two major organizers of the group disagree, there's no way we can get enough participation. I blame both the British tourism bureau and that live lipdub for me getting trying to get this back up and running. Heck, they had a IRL PINKIEQUEST in Seattle a while back.

@jackzhang !bcbronies Yeah, I was at that. It was at the same time as a major convention and was a pretty awesome time. I'm not saying it's a bad idea, I'm just saying I wouldn't be involved. Likewise I think the PNE Suits idea is stupid and I don't like paintball because it's too expensive. Doesn't mean I'm vehemently against them being done, I'm just saying to be careful about planning and that I probably won't be involved. Sorry I keep crapping on your plans. You've gotta explain what you mean by "flash mob" in more depth, though, since I think the term covers a fairly broad spectrum. Pinkiequest worked because it was done over a wide area, but each location just got it for a very short period. Most importantly, though, it was done under the banner of one of Seattle's biggest conventions, so instead of "Those obnoxious bronies", we would've been labelled "Those obnoxious geeks".
-
!vancouverbronies @jackzhang ya even if this idea takes off you can count me out, to me themed flash mobs like this are the epitome of obnoxious and i could never see myself being a part of one, not sure what everybody else's opinions on the matter are, so best of luck getting the numbers for this one dude
-
@bronymike !vancouverbronies So, I guess Cos & Effect would be a better place to do a Vancouver PINKIEQUEST or something similar. The PNE doesn't have as much walking room as UBC does, and it's the association thing.
-
-
!bcbronies I still don't like flash mobs.
Sunday, 27-May-12 06:04:46 UTC from web-
@bronymike It's the one thing I can't get organized properly at the moment. Too many ifs, ands, and buts.
-
@bronymike !vancouverbronies Ask yourself "What would PinkiePie do"? I personally don't mind doing it as long as lot of bronies are there watching and enjoying it.
-
-
!bcbronies Hey, if anyone going to the paintball would be brave enough to take a pic or video with their phone or something (hopefully outside of the battlefield or in the middle of peace time) it would be cool to see some shots of the hangout. Maybe some of you could try painting a pony with the paintballs or something. I dunno.
Saturday, 26-May-12 07:10:52 UTC from web-
@bronymike !vancouverbronies Better yet, if anyone has a GoPro, BRING IT! That's for sure going to get good video of the place.
-
@bronymike hahaha, if anyone tried to "paint" a pony with the paintballs it would just obliterate it
-
-
!vancouverbronies This will sound kind of weird but whatever. I'm in this youtube channel with some friends and every week we have a topic. Next weeks topic is friendship so I was thinking of doing a video about how FiM brought people together and created friendships in Vancouver. So if I come on Saturday would you guys be ok with filming some stuff and getting you guys to say a few things to the camera?
Friday, 25-May-12 08:05:08 UTC from web-
@bronymike !vancouverbronies Alright thanks I'll keep that in mind.
-
@balthazar @bronymike !vancouverbronies Just don't film the staff and other patrons. For my news story that was the 1st unwritten rule that I followed.
-
!bcbronies Just an update on Operation SibsyCard, it all went off as well as it possibly could have. She was surprised and absolutely thrilled. Should be a post with a bunch of pics and the video I recorded up on EqD sometime tomorrow.

@purplephish20 Yes, despite being a loyal user of the site for nearly a year, changing my name and avatar to that of a cute pink pony is silence-worthy. Which is ironic, considering whatsisface's parading about free speech and all that.

@mrdragon It's got dual dual cores???
-
@redenchilada Yes, yes it does.
-
@mrdragon You should consider getting another server just like it. Then we can say you have dual dual dual cores.

@widget Sorry I didn't respond to this earlier. Anyways, no hard feelings, it's totally okay! :) I hope you enjoyed the con either way.

!bcbronies Just to get people up to speed, since there seems to be some sort of mystery going on: On Saturday people signed a large birthday card for Sibsy and a small group of us are hoping to meet at DHX and surprise her with it. We're in talks with some people at the studio to discuss the feasibility of this, though the smaller our group, the more likely we'll be let in to give her the card. As such, the group going to DHX is closed and locked, and I apologize to anyone who was hoping to attend. If we're denied access to the studio outright and we have some advance notice of such, we may open the meet up to some more people and meet with Big Jim at the cafe downstairs from DHX, though our preference would be to hand it over in person.

!bcbronies I'm in this Entrepreneurial IT course in university over the summer and as the main project, we need to essentially make a business and the groups get more profit based on their business' earnings. My group's making a company where we'll design websites for clients. Prices for this are based on the complexity of the site, and things that involve additional PHP coding, widgets, more professional themes, many pages, etc. would drive up the price, but we could probably make up a simple Wordpress site for $50-$100. So I'm wondering, if anyone thinks they'd be interested in a website, or if you know anyone who might be interested, drop a line to mshay@live.ca or bronymike@derpymail.com if you'd prefer. Sorry to advertise this here, but I've gotta get something done on this before I get to the next class, or I'm in trouble with the group. We just need to show the teacher that there's some amount of demand and that there are prospective clients so we can proceed with the project.

@bronymike I have to say that your number one threat is websites like Squarespace, since they offer both the software and the hosting. Wysiwyg editing isn't much help neither.

!Bcbronies: sup guys, I have had comp problems for the last bit and have missed a big chunk of news? what is going down? @phunkymat cause of Everfree being so close, I wouldn't plan anything until after that event, I will be making another screening on the Season 3 premiere, this time with the double room and hopefully some sort of charity drive and an auction of US toys. @bronymike has said it best though, would be better to support Everfree. @jackzhang - I have no idea what your planning, could I get the scoop?
Monday, 21-May-12 05:29:16 UTC from web-
@thepuzzldpirate Potential small-scale birthday thing for Sibsy. We're trying to keep attendance of this very small. I forget, have you got Skype? We can discuss there (MikeOShay), or you can PM me on Youtube (BronyMike). If necessary, bronymike@derpymail.com email.
-
@thepuzzldpirate !bcbronies Also, Everfree's close, but not THAT close. We could still do some sort of medium-sized meetup, but a full-on convention is kinda illogical, if infeasible.

!vancouverbronies I was at a Brony panel in Calgary last night where they announced the "Calgary Brony Exhibition", which is just a Brony Con. And that made me wonder, why don't we have a Brony conversation in BC? I mean COME ON the show is pratically made here, and if it were to grow we would have the easiest access to staff.

!bcbronies Does anyone have any tips on parking up in Gastown? I got a third part-time job and can't use my usual method of parking on Vancouver. Is it always meters up there (and how much do they cost), or is there anywhere that's free?
Monday, 21-May-12 03:10:17 UTC from web-
@bronymike Nowhere free in Gastown that I know of. There's an EasyPark on Water St at Cambie and an ImPark on Cordova by the Harbour Centre, or meters. The parking lots, if you're in before 8am, are the best option if you're there for the day.

@abigpony @ceruleanspark oh crap... The "bananas" argument again?
-
@purplephish20 not anymore. cerulean's shutting it down before it gets out of control again.
-
@abigpony You can mean the word in whatever sense you want, but if it's generally understood to have an anti-gay meaning (hint: it is), it's still gonna end up being taken that way, and thus is not a great word to use.

This is weird, but Fimfiction doesn't seem to have Past Sins. Of all the places on the webz, I figured FimFiction would have it

@thatonepony I know, and the weird part is he tells me at school how much he hates that kind of stuff like every day.

soo.. *checks RDN rules* anypony care to tell me who I should vote for in the upcoming election? And, lest we forget, 'why/because' is an important persuasion tool.
Wednesday, 16-May-12 16:48:59 UTC from web-
@pony but then you're warping the analogy to fit your argument - choosing chocolate milk represents sexual preference, not whatever it is you think they're taking from anyone. (It was a true story by the way, I actually did try and tattle lol)
-
@crusader8 That's a cute story! Well I suppose if chocolate milk is sexual preference only and not gay marriage then I agree. I'm not exactly a stereotypical adult male teleio/anthro/gynephile .
-
@pony why do you think something is being stolen if they get the right to marry? That's a very unhealthy and unreasonable perspective. And yes I did mean gay marriage not preference, I was just typing quickly

@abigpony @comradeconventrix I know I've been down a LOT in the past few (6?) months. When I ran the con, I was always in 'go mode', overstressed, crabby, and often taken for granted ('oh, I'm going to the con, I can crash at your place, right?'). After I stepped down, I was being falsely accused of multiple heinous felonies, and none of the other 'famous bronies' stood up and said 'guys, this is wrong'. I felt abandoned. I'm working on improving my mood and outlook, but you don't recover overnight from experiences like this. I've always focused on doing what is right, not necessarily on being sweet. That's bit me in the butt. If you're grumpy, nobody will care how much awesome stuff you do. A great piece of wisdom that I've finally come to realise if 'if you're angry, nopony will care if you're right; if you're sweet, nopony will care if you're wrong.' I've always prioritised doing what is right, or what needs to be done-- often at the cost of my own mood, health and public image.

!Vancouverbronies I keep forgetting to put a damn exclamation point. I was just wondering for those who are going to everfree, what kind of nametag are u guys getting, Im undecided although I'm leaning towards fan name in large and real name in small

@underdogbassist !bcbronies Yeah, I think that's what I got. Can't remember for sure, though.

@purpletinker @mrdragon @colfax @ceruleanspark I was in the emergency room today because an irate customer. He put me into a Super-ventricular Tachycardia because he would not accept the fact that I cannot send a truck out to find out what is going on with his internet connection... in Europe!!! My heart beat was 4 beats per second at 240 per minute! I'm okay now, but I won't be around for awhile...
