Re: Topic for people who like MLP:FiM
Yet another Doctor Who reference. A particularly obvious one at that. I had to pause it when I saw that. You just don't put 3D glasses on a Pony for no reason.

Re: Topic for people who like MLP:FiM
Especially one that we're already calling Doctor Whooves. Pretty funny that they've selected Rose - oh........... wait.
Re: Topic for people who like MLP:FiM
Speaking of Dr. Who, the Twelth Doctor is apparently played by Peter Capaldi, who is known for playing extremely foul-mouthed Malcolm Tucker in 'The Thick Of It'. Imagine if Dr. Whooves was based on him instead of David Tennant.

I'll be honest with you guys, but I like the show, but I don't like the fans that much.
Re: Topic for people who like MLP:FiM
Well, the dudes don't love and tolerate me any more in this thread, so yeah.

Re: Topic for people who like MLP:FiM
"Love and tolerate" does not mean "show complete unconditional praise because you exist", by the way. You're being treated not very friendly because you're saying and doing things that are inappropriate and/or intolerable. Shipping and treating the forums like a personal blog are two of those things. Actually listen to others' opinions instead of thinking everyone's after you when they disagree, and maybe you'll be "loved and tolerated."

Re: Topic for people who like MLP:FiM
Stop existing for me, please? Thanks. You're no troll, not even a good one either. I have no idea why you call your self one. Maybe to justify the means or to bring a sense of importance to your self.MJ79 wrote:When no one's around for you to share your birthday cake with, I feel no upper than you, buddy.Hellstorm Archon wrote:Could anyone spare some pony?

But, as Minigunner said:

Re: Topic for people who like MLP:FiM
What do you mean I'm not?In Internet slang, a troll is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people by posting inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a forum, chat room, or blog), either accidentally or with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.

All you're succeeding in doing here is making the moderation staff watch your every move very, very closely. You're not managing to piss anybody off, and you're certainly not managing to get away with it.

Re: Topic for people who like MLP:FiM
Guys, I don't want this thread locked because of a couple of arguments, but we need to stop with this drama.
MJ79, please stop treating this thread as a personal thread for clop-posting and nonsensical ideas, and then wonder why everybody is yelling at you for this, especially the former.
Personally, I believe that the moderation is fair in offering wiggle room before being swift in the execution of forum justice.
Nobody else deserves to suffer because of one guy's shitposting.

Re: Topic for people who like MLP:FiM
I need to stop predicting ridiculous things while watching this show, 'cause they keep happening.
Like the one with Fluttershy singing with the Ponytones; It was obvious that someone was going to lose their voice or something and she'd have to fill in, so I said to my sister, "Imagine if she has to fill in for Big Mac... They'll have to go find some Poison Joke and bring back Flutterguy", or something to that effect.
LO AND BEHOLD
and this episode just now, I was all like "Dangerous delivery route? What, does she have to
Oh, and
RE: Trolling
Proper trolling requires a bit of tact and subtlety (believe it or not). It's a game of deception; your goal isn't to make people angry, it's to make people make themselves angry.
Just out-and-out being an obnoxious jackass doesn't make you a troll, it just makes you an obnoxious jackass.
edit: For a Doom-based analogy, "good" trolling is when you pull stuff like the Baron room in Tricks 'n' Traps; If you charge in guns blazing you're just going to make a fool of yourself. Better to just set off the big dumb guy in the back and get everyone fighting amongst themselves, and never fire any shots before they're all furious at eachother. If all eyes are on you, you just ain't doin' it right.
And if you ever say the word "troll" or use any memes whatsoever, you've already failed.
