on*

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 10:10 PM)

Red said he couldnt get one

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 11:25 AM)

Also I still have to figure out how to set up our e-mail accounts on the new host.

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 08:19 AM)

As soon as I figure out how to restore it. Sorry, I know I said it'd be done by now, but I didn't expect to have to put up with this DNS crap and other issues that popped up.

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

So when's the black theme coming back??

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

"Should"

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 07:27 AM)

That DNS took longer to propagate properly than I thought it would. *Now* we should be back for good, though.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:48 PM)

Or it might be because Bluehost *finally* got around to that server wipe (one week after we'd asked for it) and that wiped out our DNS settings. I'm not sure which and I don't really care. In any case, we've severed our last ties with Bluehost, so this will not happen again.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:08 PM)

Looks like Bluehost yanked our DNS since our hosting account expired. That's why the site went down a while ago. But as you can see, it's fixed now.

@  Misk : (23 July 2015 - 04:55 PM)

No, they do not.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 04:27 AM)

The goggles do nothing?

@  Misk : (22 July 2015 - 05:50 PM)

My eyes.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 12:24 PM)

Looks like forum uploads might have been broken since last night. That should be fixed now too.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 01:33 AM)

Heh, whoops! Server went down for a few mins when I borked the config. Looks like it's back up now.

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 09:09 PM)

It looked like a napkin

@  ILOVEVHS : (21 July 2015 - 09:04 PM)

Fan-fuckin-tastic.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:25 PM)

As for the beaver picture while the forum was down, I think Tim drew it. On a napkin.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:24 PM)

No kiddin' about that "Finally!", Shadow. I am *so mad* at Bluehost for never responding to our support ticket. I submitted it early Friday morning and they *still* haven't answered it!

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 06:37 PM)

Maybe he did that himself

@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:25 PM)

Say, who made the cute picture of Beaver Chief?

I have to admit I've started watching whole episodes. However, I only watch them once on the live stream chats on Bronystate when they air. It's sort of fun seeing people react to the episodes, and I really dig Ask Jappleack and the .MOV flashes (Mainly for the Ren & Stimpy-esque facial expressions. Thank you Shadow for introducing me to those). I still don't have much of a desire to go back and watch Season 1 though. I prefer watching the episodes in the live chat and see people's first time reactions to them.

Since nobody listens to quoted wisdom anymore...
I do have. A few points.
MLP's animation IS well done, and the villains are pretty dastardly(mostly discord...eee!), and some of the episode plots are pretty good, and there are some nice in jokes, the only problem is...
In the words of the fiery Joker, "it needs to forget it is a show for little girls." That is...
Less half. Witted musical numbers,
More humor directed at everything other than the convenient placenment of pony as a noun and pronoun,
A little satire...cmon!
And a bit of stylish flair away from the girly premise.
Maybe give off a little backstory on some characxters, or bring out a character in need of cheering up, maybe with a dark past.
Maybe then AC, red and I. Would at least watch a few episodes..(other than my agreed three.)
That, and let the villains play about for a few episodes! Discord lasted two! That's tied woth the generic scooby-doo villain episode count!

As for that last point, it was promised that we would see more villains in Season 2. So far there have been no others. I'm not quite sure what is going on there.

Also, Shadow I want to thank that Nyan Cat pic, but I've reached my quota again. :(

Season one still had quite a few decent episodes, check them out when you get the chance. If you like Applejack you'll probably enjoy S1E3 and S1E8.

I have actually, I watched the first two a while back. Course I was instructed to watch the 2nd season, I believe.

But before venturing into enemy space, one must travel at yellow alert and shields up. A tip for you kids ;)

Rainbow Dash is my favorite pony. Followed closely by Derpy Hooves.

TBH I find Derpy Hooves distracting just 'cause of all the time she's used as a background pony... originally she wasn't supposed to stand out, but now that she has a name and distinct identity, she leaps out at the eye regardless.

More like its googly eyes stand out. Looks like that pony slammed its head in one too many times.

Also kids, always remember to wear head protection ;)

Actually she's missing the googly eyes in most of her early appearances, since she didn't have a chance to catch on with the fans until much of season 1 had finished production.

Ok, I am PISSED.
Apparently for the Itunes they censored Derpy Hooves. They omitted using her name, fixed her cute googly eyes, and gave her a different voice. All because a few people got offended at a goofy character on a kids show.
So much for love and tolerance assholes...

This is a slap to all bronies

Some are saying its just one of those remakes and will only appear in Itunes, I honestly hope so,

Not that i hate the new Voice, it just sounds like another char from Strawberry Shortcake. T.T

C'mon Hasbro, Keep Derpy..... well Derpy xD

Some people complained that Derpy mocks the mentally handicapped. Which of course wasn't the intention, but what matters is perception and not intention.

People will complain about anything, really.

Derpy is offensive. But South Park's TIMMAAAH? Nope.
