@thatonepony As in "don't talk about your molestation fantasies"
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:03:24 UTC from web-
@redenchilada @thatonepony So suddenly molestation gets brought up. Is it ok to talk about that issue now?

@comradeconventrix @thatonepony @redenchilada I'm being stupid don't mind me. I'm just a bit miffed still
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:07:14 UTC from web-
@pony Is this still over the argument from talking about child molestation? To be honest... get over yourself.
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:08:20 UTC from web-
@redenchilada I'd prefer it if you didn't bring up the subject. This is supposed to be a child-friendly site after all.
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:11:47 UTC from web-
@pony Don't tell me how to act around here. :|
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:13:06 UTC from web-
@redenchilada Not to be an bananas, but... screw it, I'm gonna be an dole: please tell me you can see the hypocrisy in bringing up the subject (even as an example of "that was a thing that we won't talk about again", you still brought up that specifically when @thatonepony was asking about a broader thing) while also telling people not to talk about it?
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:17:05 UTC from web-
@bitshift I was attempting to clarify where the boundary was. Obviously I failed to do that and have only made people mad. Oh well.
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:18:10 UTC from web-
@redenchilada Fair enough. It did kinda come off as you targetting the people involved in that particular discussion earlier, but if that wasn't the intention, then I'm okay with it.
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:22:13 UTC from web-
@bitshift I've just been on-edge all day today. I'm guessing I'm not the only one on here who feels the same way.
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:23:23 UTC from web-
@redenchilada It's a very touchy subject, so it's understandable that nobody's going to be acting entirely rationally around it, regardless of which side they come down on.

@thatonepony As in we're keeping the swearing down and this clop talk that's been happening for the past month now off. I want us to try and be a cleaner site then what we have become of late, not to mention these damn arguments over certain things are giving me a headache as are some others.
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:09:53 UTC from web -
@thatonepony I don't mind a joke once in a while
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:14:02 UTC from web -
@thatonepony @mrdragon Emphasis on the "once in a while".
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:15:01 UTC from web -
@comradeconventrix Yeah. I'm still trying not to be a jerk about it, but I know no other acceptable way to express myself.
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:15:34 UTC from web -
@comradeconventrix I was really close to ignoring him, but I thought I'd remind him of the rules instead, cuz he seems so attached to them.
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:17:29 UTC from web -
@comradeconventrix Was that REALLY needed? I want this entire situation to defuse yet people just KEEP adding to the fire.
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:25:39 UTC from web -
@comradeconventrix *sigh* It's worth it for me to put it aside and chalk it up to ignorance. At least I tell myself that.
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:27:11 UTC from web -
@comradeconventrix Well, I don't know what @pony said, so I'm not gonna judge him based purely on second-hand commentary. But at least as far as I'm concerned, there's a line there which you just don't cross: Being attracted to children? Iff that's how you are, that's how you are. The idea makes me uncomfortable, but I'm not gonna hate someone for how they were born. However, acting on it, or talking about acting on it? That'd be a big no, even if it weren't illegal.
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:31:19 UTC from web -
@comradeconventrix You've always been supportive and I appreciate it. I'm not the only pony on here like me or I'd actually take it a lot better. I'm not just standing up for myself, it's for others as well. At a certain point though, what I can do has its limit. I don't think Cerulean will change his mind any time soon.
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:32:23 UTC from web -
@comradeconventrix Well, assuming that's the case (I didn't see the actual post that started this, so I can't be certain), then I guess I have no problem with what's going on.
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:35:41 UTC from web -
@comradeconventrix @bitshift @Hakupony helped me realize that with controversial topics I should explain what I DON'T support if I'm going to advocate for something that might disturb some ponies. What I advocate is that there be no name calling or slurs (eg. molester) directed toward anypony simply because of their preferences. I DON'T support any illegal activity at all, nor do I advocate for art that encourages that behavior.

@pony This feels like a "Dear Princess Celestia" moment. <3
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:41:37 UTC from web -
@pony I want you to know that I am not getting towards you with what I've chosen, the /idea/ is that if we can keep this off the timeline and kept between friends in a DM then I /hope/ that this site will settle down. For the past month everyone who comes here as a regular has been getting upity and tense about subjects or just flat out argumentative over things. I'm /hoping/ (all of these // is because it's a large hope) that people will settle down over it all. Also because I've had emails from parents wanting to expose us as Child corruption from their view of the timeline, sadly I don't fancy a solicitor letter even if they don't have anything on us. And if I have one of the emails I will prove it for you all, that's if I sitll have them

@mrdragon That's perfectly reasonable. Thanks for adding further clarification.
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:48:41 UTC from web-
@pony Check your DM's and you'll see a email I mean
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:51:22 UTC from web-
@mrdragon oh thank you! You didn't have to do that. If there's anything you'd like me to do to help I'll be happy to do my best (other than obviously avoiding certain topics).

@mrdragon Would you be so kind to send me one of this mails (anonimized of course) as well? I want to reflect on my own behaviour. Would be very nice of ou.

@mrdragon Oh man. I come here and see this. What happened now?

@nerthos You're alive!

@carcino Am I? Is this a dream? If it is one, it's a crappy one.

@mrdragon One thing that ought to help is the eventual move to SN 1.0, since it actually has a PM system worth a damn - 0.9's doesn't even support conversation threading, whereas 1.0 supports private messages that are functionally identical to regular dashes, except... well, private. Hopefully the better system will make people less averse to taking things over to PMs when it goes outside of what the rules permit - I know I currently don't like to resort to the hassle of PMing someone unless it's blatantly obvious that the subject is not suitable for the public timeline.
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:57:50 UTC from web-
@bitshift Cerulean doesn't want to update because of fear of really breaking things, and I can't get Tinker down to give me a date to do it. So god knows when it'll happen (I kinda wanna get it done soon though)

@comradeconventrix Ah, the MS discussion. Yeah, I caught the tail-end of that. It's... a tricky subject. On a purely technical level, drawing such material _is_ acting on pedophilia, but on the other hand, as it's not harming any actual person, and it's preferable (by a long way) to straight-up child porn, I'd consider it a greyer subject. I still wish MS didn't draw it, but I'm not gonna dismiss him entirely on the grounds of that alone.
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:42:08 UTC from web-
@bitshift I like his clean stuff a lot. It really is a gray area.
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:45:59 UTC from web-
@pony He has a really nice art style. Can't say I have much of an interest in his NSFW stuff, and like I said, the NSFW humanized foal art just does not sit well with me at all, but his art style in general is still pretty good.
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:49:35 UTC from web-
@bitshift I can't speak for any of his NSFW stuff. I've only seen maybe one or 2 questionable pics drawn by him.

@comradeconventrix haha! Ponies in real life ftw! http://ur1.ca/9qee6

@thatonepony Nope. @minti met him at Bronycon, and even specifically mentioned that he _is_ male in the same thread that I was just referring to.
Friday, 06-Jul-12 00:44:03 UTC from web -
@thatonepony Oh well. What's one more problem in a sea of them?
