I remember when it was an odd occurrence to find RDN silent for 5 minutes. I kind of expectred the activity here to pick up mid season 3 yet here we are.

@pony It's a bit odd, I guess it helps that one can hook into any other number of SN sites to interact with them... I guess I oughta do that :) I wonder if there are any other pony SNs apart from SBN?
Monday, 14-Jan-13 08:16:33 UTC from web-
@neurario just one to my knowledge, but it's NSFW and usually much less active than RDN.
Monday, 14-Jan-13 08:18:19 UTC from web-
@pony Haha, joy :p But yeah, it is a bit strange, but not all that odd to me to be honest, I don't really know anywhere that doesn't seem to shut down at this time of night
Monday, 14-Jan-13 08:19:54 UTC from web-
@neurario last year it was more active at this time. ah well.. I've hung out at quieter places.
Monday, 14-Jan-13 08:21:45 UTC from web-
@pony Mmm! I guess this is why I get the impression that this is a smaller community than you guys say it is/was, even though I'm user ID 22012 :p I mean it's been nice to see all the older members poke their heads back in for a while :)
Monday, 14-Jan-13 08:24:08 UTC from web-
@neurario yup. big or small I suppose I don't mind. Depending on when a fan joined the community and where they connected with other bronies each of us has different expectations. Some miss the tighter-knit feel of the earliest days, I miss the excitement of newponies and almost newponies dropping in, but it's also nice to get to know the core RDN members better and see what the close-knit feel is like.
Monday, 14-Jan-13 08:34:01 UTC from web-
@pony I still get excited about newponies. http://ur1.ca/cis61

@crusader8 My computer monitor tastes terrible due to whatever I use to clean it.

@neurario This community is weird actually. Having actually looked at the requests from the server side, this site has a weirdly huge number of registered lurkers who just sit logged in and silently watching the timeline.
-
@ceruleanspark Sounds about right for most places on the internet.
Monday, 14-Jan-13 08:38:34 UTC from web -
@ceruleanspark does that include those who lurk from other instances of statusnet?

@pony Between the departure of the various people with "Dragon" in their name, Gherkin and Pawnheart getting jobs, and Rotations general disgust with the fandom, I'm pretty much the only british user left.
-
@ceruleanspark Ah right. jobs :P Yeah I forgot to consider that British users were the main ones active at this time
Monday, 14-Jan-13 08:40:43 UTC from web-
@pony Not forgetting that Katy and Scribble don't come here much anymore, and Purplephish, being jobless, has no incentive to be awake now.
-
@ceruleanspark yeah. that's the core group it seems. Minti has no reason not to visit when he's awake (which I think is often still), except that he's been addicted to Minecraft lately.
Monday, 14-Jan-13 08:49:19 UTC from web-
@pony The only reason he comes here nowdays is to talk about how he doesn't come here anymore.
-
@ceruleanspark xD I miss his emoticons

@pony the former core group I mean.

@ceruleanspark Speaking of dragons. :P @selth Hey there
Monday, 14-Jan-13 08:40:59 UTC from web-
@neurario speaking of dragons? What were you saying?
-
@selth well, mainly talking about british people, then you showed up :3

@ceruleanspark It's not really anything to do with the fans, I don't enjoy the show any more.
Monday, 14-Jan-13 09:27:08 UTC from web-
@rotation you're the first I've seen say this. it's almost always the fandom that gets old first
Monday, 14-Jan-13 09:28:23 UTC from web-
@pony Even when the fanbase was 99.99% idiot, I could still have a decent gab/point and laugh with the other 0.01%.
Monday, 14-Jan-13 09:36:33 UTC from web-
@rotation You should watch this week's episode and the fandom outcry if you like laughing at large groups of people.
Monday, 14-Jan-13 09:39:29 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin Can I skip watching the episode and just laugh?
Monday, 14-Jan-13 09:42:07 UTC from web-
@rotation No. It'll be great.
Monday, 14-Jan-13 09:43:51 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin But yellow pone was always my least favourite.
Monday, 14-Jan-13 09:46:02 UTC from web-
@rotation Sure, like Fluttershy's going to be the most important character in that episode.
Monday, 14-Jan-13 09:47:02 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin @rotation I hope so. xD Fluttershy is my hero.
Monday, 14-Jan-13 09:51:25 UTC from web-
@pony No she isn't.
Monday, 14-Jan-13 09:51:55 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin yuh-huh!

@thelastgherkin something something Fluttershy has no character something something. I suppose actually knowing what I'll be laughing at people for is probably better for me than trying to learn Welsh.
Monday, 14-Jan-13 09:52:57 UTC from web-
@rotation I get the impression you've read the title but not the synopsis. C'mon, this'll be worse than the Trixie episode which was actually mildly enjoyable in places.
Monday, 14-Jan-13 09:54:36 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin >You already know what I am outraged about
-
@ceruleanspark I like to think that after that episode, the Humble and Apologetic Trixie acted exactly the same but with different adjectives.

@thelastgherkin I didn't watch that one. I did read the synopsis for the new one actually. Looks like the writers aren't reading fanfics, but just looking at popular topics, then completely invalidating every fic. I approve of this.
Monday, 14-Jan-13 09:57:54 UTC from web-
@rotation So watch it.
Monday, 14-Jan-13 10:05:08 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin You'll need to remind me.
Monday, 14-Jan-13 10:11:07 UTC from web-
@rotation We could watch it together~!
Monday, 14-Jan-13 10:14:58 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin Your place or mine? [suggestive eyebrows]
Monday, 14-Jan-13 10:20:17 UTC from web-
@rotation I'm busy that weekend. :/
Monday, 14-Jan-13 10:27:26 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin [continues to suggestively wiggle eyebrows]
Monday, 14-Jan-13 10:38:15 UTC from web-
@rotation Don't you waggle those things at me.
Monday, 14-Jan-13 10:42:57 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin You'd prefer it if I waggled something else? Oh my.

@thelastgherkin which episode?
Monday, 14-Jan-13 09:42:11 UTC from web-
@crusader8 The one to be broadcast on this Saturday I believe?
Monday, 14-Jan-13 09:44:02 UTC from web-
@thelastgherkin oh so you're referring to the new episode. Fanfics will suffer greatly, and many alt. universe tags will be begrudgingly added.

@neurario oh yeah. there's also the RP site
Monday, 14-Jan-13 08:25:15 UTC from web-
@pony Oh yeah the RP site. I finally went and had a peek over there :p
Monday, 14-Jan-13 08:29:39 UTC from web-
@neurario yeah it's looking good with the new style, otherwise I guess same as ever
