@cabal As I would have been one of the first people to jump on your back if you’d gone ahead with a SOPA blackout, I feel it would be remiss of me not to provide positive feedback for not doing it. http://www.renzokuken.org/post/16109044003/fao-cabal

@ceruleanspark It's a matter of him expecting trouble from you and therefore no matter what you say he'd think you were attacking him.
-
@thatonepony Exactly. Still, I'mma post this thing and see what happens (Probably nothing, or more rage)
-
@cabal As for the paranoia issue: You yourself are the one who posted suggesting that if SOPA passes, you'd be dragged out of your house by a SWAT team in the dead of night. That IS paranoia. One could also aruge that reading my previous post and coming to the conclusion that it was /intended/ to patronise is also a mark of paranoia. You editorialise every issue you have an opinion on extremely strongly, leading to a chicken little/boy who cried wolf scenario whereby you may well be talking about something incredibly important (IE: Free Speech) but the manner in which you are talking about it puts people off.

Equestriacoffeehouse.com *Looks left* Shiny? *Looks Right* Updated? *looks up* No CC licenses??? *looks down* Clearly this place has an air of a respectable establishment with intent to profit. I have my work cut out for me.

@nvrrmbr I meant mine, as it happens.

@ceruleanspark Mhmm. Well, I wish you the best of luck.

@bronies the server belongs to @purpletinker. I still have the domain though because we haven't discussed transfer.

LOL, nuke USA? Good luck. The moment the missile leaves the ground its getting swat. Plus all other countries will shoot it down too.

@abigpony If we want one, we need to actually comission someone proper. It's such a large, complex and above all LONG project, if we ever want to see one complete, we're gonna need to put up some financial incentive.
-
@abigpony That's 'cause we all found it offensive.
-
@abigpony I don't want to get into the merits of the argument or the authors issues with paypal specifically, but the argument persuaded the other users of this site, which is where the rift between you and the people who were offended by you lies. FWIW, I escalated the posts that got you banned to an administrator for their verdict, rather than getting involved myself at the time, as I considered myself too emotionally involved to make a good decision.
-
RDN will not be shutting down on the 18. That is all!
-
@purpletinker Just as a poke to you, any chance I could get my admin yet? It's been a while now, still unable to help with your moderation and demotion of mods without it..
Tuesday, 17-Jan-12 15:20:13 UTC from web-
@mrdragon That was what gave you admin powers.
-
@purpletinker Ah, I see, you are full of mystery Ms. Tinker, you know that? :P

Difference of opinion? On the INTERNET?! The shock!

@abigpony I held a differing opinion.

@redenchilada I'm already gagged by several court orders in other countries in regards to something I wrote a long time ago.
-
@cabal I'm sorry you're in legal trouble, but can you please just put a bit of thought into what you say and do? There's a right way to go about an argument, and a wrong way.
-
@redenchilada I'll consider it. #lol

ITT: People angry about Cabal's decision to black out the site for a few hours in protest of something that would black out the site FFOOORRREEEVVVEEERRR!!!
Tuesday, 17-Jan-12 03:46:42 UTC from web-
@trixiethewonderful I did NOT make a decision. Not without purpletinker's say so will I black out the site. #listen #payattention
-
@cabal Allow me to correct myself then, if this happens you have my full support in it.
-
@abigpony Wrong, the company hosting us is US based, but the datacenter is in germany. Our domain in in the US though, and subject to Law.

@pumpkinhill It's the interwebs. People can easily get impassioned by trivial conversations and escalate the situation.
-
@pumpkinhill What we understand: This is bad. What we don't understand fully: EXACTLY how much it will affect us. Say what you want, but you probably haven't lived with censored internet. Most of us don't know what its like! We need to know exactly how bad it will be, so we will just make just a bit more effort, because unless the US gets 50 more representatives against this stuff, it will pass (PIPA) in the senate. We need to motivate the people making the decisions just a bit towards what the people want, instead of what the businesses want
-
@the20percent So what do you wish me to do past those emails and whatnot that I've already done? I understand full well how inconvenient and terrible the outcome will be, but my voice can only do so much past what I've already done. Having no internet access at all for a week was more than annoying enough, but I managed. That's not the point though and the thing is that I understand how inconvenienced it would be and how privileged we are right now to have it.

@cabal You do realize, don't you, that the whole idea is to get people to come top the site and not drive them away?
-
@colfax That went away during the whole RP debacle. I would have dismantled this website if purpletinker didn't offer to fianance it. Plus, where would our social bronies go? Flankbook died.
-
-
@tinwhistle No. Cabal's wants to stop SOPA by becoming it.
-
@forestrain Do you know how many people are just going to go to purpletinker and have her make cabal put the site back up?
-
@derps Pretty sure Cabal's original post said he was going to clear it with her in the first place.
-
@forestrain Yeah, but hypothetically speaking.
-
-
@cabal I know this is off-topic, but any word on that whole badge design contest?

-
@forestrain Ah right. Give me tomorrow to eval. I gotta wake up really early to go to my new job tomorrow.
-
@cabal No worries. I didn't see a ton of entries, but I figured I'd ask, you know, so I can win. ^.^ Good luck at your new job, mate.

HAY! !savannahbronies I started a meetup group on meetup.com http://www.meetup.com/Savannah-Bronies/ JOIN TODAY, so we plan the first meetup!

Hay !savannahbronies Lets get a meetup started! Because I'm sure alot ponies (including me) feel alone and can't find the means to meetup with ponies. And create everlasting friendships. I'm from

@bronymcbroningson What kind of place were you thinking of having the meetup at? If there's not too many people coming, I'm alright with using my apartment. If the weather's nice, Forsyth Park would be a really nice outside place to meet.
-
@wobot Uhh, I don't know. That's sounds good. Thanks alot for offering your place. So, I guess I'll create a group on meetup.com and see what bites
-
@bronymcbroningson We have parties here all the time, so it's no problem :) And that sounds like a good plan. Just keep me informed and let me know what day it's gonna happen so I can get the day off work.

@muffin Hay, did you just send me a Note on dA saying you had to drop out of BroNYCon? If so, drop me an email. Trying to free up slots for a couple traveling in from out of state.

@cabal Are you on something, man?
Tuesday, 03-Jan-12 01:32:54 UTC from web-
@cabal I'm at ~35 miles from the capital of the country, but still, the need for technicians is somewhat high. Decreasing a little, yes, but still a problem that comes with cloud computing and internet, is that there's abundance of information. That means virtually anyone could find a guide to fix most problems, but it means too that lots of wrong or "troll" to call it like that, information is available too. And only people with a certain degree of knowledge is able to distinguish a legit guide from something written by someone misinformed or trolling, so there will be an increase of the demand for that reason, people ruining their computers when following internet information.
-
@cabal Certainly the fact that most try to avoid sites like 4chan is true, but lots of forums and places like yahoo answers, that most users check are full of guys who think they know what they're typing, but don't have a real knowledge over the matter.
-
@cabal Rage indeed xD I mostly work insid the town, though. There was an increase of the sales of computers in the last years here.

@cabal So, when you say 'confirmed for BroNYCon' , you mean you are going?

Things I did in 2011: Held a brony convention with 300 people at it. Got interviewed by the Wall Street Journal. Made lots of ponies happy (and saved one of them from the streets). That last sentence is the most important.

@purpletinker Why is that banner themed after Rarity, is she the pony of the month or something/
-
@the20percent Every month is Rarity month.
-
@the20percent Seasonal theming. The fall meetup was Applejack (red and yellow, fall colours). The winter meetup is Rarity (white with purple accents).
