Last night some interesting discussions about Ponychan's mods and certain members were -attempted- to be carried.
Keyword is -attempted- as the local mods kept deleting the posts and a few persons (confirmed as Ponychan Mods) were desperately attempting to sage and deral the discussions as well. tl:dr: Ponychan has degenerated into the complete opposite of what it intended to be and the Mods do anything to negate any accusation about power abuse or playing favorites. I'm sticking to /co/ and this place for the time being. |

And that is why, despite all the drama and butthurt, ponibooru is still my main source of pony related enjoyment. |

I used to post around on ponychan. Then I saw it slowly divulge into stupid bullshit. It's nothing but shitty OC recolours of the mane six and morons looking into a show far deeper than they need to. |

I blame the Namefaggotry syndrome. Things slowly escalate into meta and loud obnoxious kids slowly start to take a hold of the community with mob mentality. |

Ponibooru and /co/'s night threads are all what I need for my minuscule equine fix.
Ponychan is a circle jerk of OCs, abusive Mods protecting some -horrendous- persons and imposing their personal beliefs over everyone there. If you say you like Applejack, you get immediately banned for -and I cite textually- being a mental retard without good taste. Also, the mods are so dumb that whenever they deliver bans, it's very common to see other people getting caught on them as well, or whenever a person complains and calls them on their BS, the mods (and their favorited friends) dismiss the critics under the excuse that "all critics posted on Ponychan are the work of a single troll samefagging and using proxies so they are worth nothing." |

Because calling someone a "fag" is not obnoxious at all. I'm so glad we can have names here. |

Ponychan mods dismiss the opinion of anyone who posts as Anon because according to them, all anons are trolls. Also, I have seen Mods banning people for not offering their help to people, or for even suggesting the idea that if a person asks an absurdely big and complex favour, he should reward people for their help. So they ban you for not helping and if you help, they can ban you as well. |

Its an internet slang... And dont you go and start any Anti-Anonymous meta debates for this. |
| HeinousActsZX #781624 7 months ago |
Okay, then.
Why not simply get a name? I'm as anonymous as you, the only difference is that I'm distinguishable. Does posting without a name really mean that much? |

Because some people isn't interested at all on creating an internet life to get sure that everything they say or do cannot be credited to other people, or that nobody can steal their internet fame, I suppose. Some people are just fine without running in circles with a giant neon glow nametag attached to them like the average nameuser does at a daily basis. |

From a practical point of view though, it improves communication. Say, for instance, I wanted to have a conversation with you, and only you. If you had a name, we could talk in private messages. But since you don't, we talk like this, and I honestly don't even know if I'm talking to the same person I started with. |

Actually I have 2 accounts One that I rarely use to avoid anon smacking and one that I stole from ...umm.. think it was Maroon or someone like that, for running a conversation between two different accounts. tl;dr I have an account, but cant just arse myself to use it. |
| Anonymous #781684 7 months ago |
Anonymous posting is exactly for that, to get sure nobody can mess with your privacy if you don't want to.
Of course, Ponychan's mods (and their self-proclaimed "famous people") use the anonymous posting as a very convenient excuse to dodge critics or to openly attacking people they dislike. ("You don't dare to show your face, so you must be a trolololol -FLAMED! -BANNED -PERMABANNED!") They run on circular logic and "NO U!" comebacks. |

I just pick up information. I dont care who gives it to me as long as it is confirmed to be true. So, yeah. Im just here to share information and opinion. |
| HeinousActsZX #781710 7 months ago |
Fine.
I'm clearly not gonna convince anyone today. But if ponychan is reall, really that bad, don't go on it. /thread |
| Scope_Dog #781719 7 months ago |
The only thread I even go to on Ponychan is the Straight Shipping picture thread.
/pony/ creeps me out, /oat/ is filled with baboons (then again, the whole site is filled with fools who enjoy narrative masturbations like Homestuck), and /pic/ is barely tolerable. I really wish there was a MLP site free of sexual smut, rage-material, idiocy, and creepiness. The filters here keep most of those things away, but ugh... Maybe I should try my hand at starting a site or something. |

Some people visits that shithole to keep an eye on some great projects (such as Mane 6) or to get subs from the international board, so no, don't try to close the conversation by saying "/thread" just because YOU didn't got what YOU wanted.
Also, who is this "Pierce Smoulder" fella and what sections frequents so I could avoid them? |
| HeinousActsZX #781733 7 months ago |
I said /thread because the original point of this thread was to complain about Ponychan.
The solution is to not go there. Got it? I've never been, so go if you want. |
| HeinousActsZX #781737 7 months ago |
And now I'm mad.

"If you say you like Applejack, you get immediately banned" For real? What the hell is this, some kindergarten playground where we make a fuss about whose toy is better? Wow, stuff like this is really annoying and makes me wonder about the IQ of those "moderators". |

If my post offended you, then the solution is not read it. Got it? Now explain to everyone why your own logic is flawed when it's used against yourself and the ideas you want to shove down everyone's throats. |

You should try it. Its horrible! But seriously. It the "THE" PONYchan. The imageboard of the brony fanbase. And its horrible. |
| HeinousActsZX #781758 7 months ago |
Same logic applies.
I'm being a hypocrite by doing what I told others not to do. Now go on and enjoy the Ponychan you claim to hate so much. Assuming, of course, you're the same anon. |

This seems to have happened in /collab/ which is a hellhole on itself.

>Why not simply get a name? Because soon the community degenerates into circlejerks of complimentary butt-poking, drama and forced good manners. It's not bad to have a name to claim authorship to your art and ergo but it's completely unnesecary for simply expressing opinions or comment on someone else's art and almost mathematically leads to attention-seeking. Also if you feel offended by be being called a "fag" then lurk moar faggot. |

> This thread.
Hmm. Well, I frequent Ponychan from time on time and yes, I have seen how the mods tend to be a bit too ban-happy indeed, especially against people they don't like too much. I have seen them shielding and playing favorites with some people as well, but not very frequently, or at least not in the sections I tend to lurk around. I have seen the person menctioned on OP's image but I decline to make comments about her behavior because I don't want problems. |
| Anonymous #784745 7 months ago |
Oh wow. I left Ponychan for much less faggotry than this. I think we better quarantine that place. |
| Anonycat #784906 7 months ago |
It's not THAT bad, but yes, some people there are a bit touched in the head and they make really difficult to not step on a landmine every time you want to say something. |

We need more maturity, where is(are?) the maturity in these 20+ year old men and women?
Unless all of you are just secretly disguised 9-13 year olds who were never taught how to behave on the web..(or you probably just didn't learn overtime..) C'mon now.. I'm only 16, and I know when to let a topic go..shoot.. I don't even know anymore, I thought my comments on meta-related images would be kept not serious..bleh.. why did you guys have to make me do this ;_; |
| Anonymous #791135 7 months ago |
Just saying, but "fag" is a scottish word. Means more or less "pal". That DOESN'T mean "faggot". Not at all. If you think that, you're stupid, poor, and hatless.
Suck to be you. Especially about the hat. |
