• 1,000,000 Hits Zomg!

    by

    Woah, that's like... 10, 100,000's or something!  I honestly would have quit this months ago if the feedback wasn't so great here.  Thanks for kicking ass bronies! I had another image from Cereal Velocity for the main thing...but I didn't want to blind those of you who are offended by it, so you can find it after the page break if you are really curious!

    I don't think this is a blog anymore.  In fact I think it stopped just being a "blog" within about a week.  This is more of a fanfiction/video/comic/drawfriend archive with a blog on the side.  I'm not even sure what it officially classifies as, but I like it.

    Community Content
    My original plan was to just post stuff I liked, and I thought for sure it would bomb in a day or two.  You guys changed that outlook quick!  The topic may be addicting as hell, but not even ponies could spur me to do something for this long with so many hours thrown in without an awesome community backing it. 

    One thing I realized within a week of this site was that I didn't want to become a supreme dictator asshole who controls everything, and I've had some rough patches here (mainly yesterday with the m/m fiasco).

    If I do/say something completely ridiculous, or my sarcasm comes off as harsh, please don't take it personally.  I have always had issues with mindlessly blurting stuff out without thinking of the consequences. 

    With that being said, feel free to send feedback/fixes/stuff through email.   Remember, everything I submit is stuff that you guys have done (minus news).  These are "your posts", I'm just here keeping it organized. If something is out of whack, email me and I'll fix it! 

    ORGANIZATION!
    I really need a ring tone of that from Winter Wrap Up... This part is primarily going to be about fanfics, since that's the main item that is organized daily.

    The Star Tags were rocky, but honestly I think they are starting to shape up.  I don't find myself dropping ten 5 star stories into the archive every time now, and stuff that is generally unfavorable tends to receive lower ratings.  A lot of the content is just genuinely...good.  This community has some awesome writers, even if Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy HAVE been shipped 10 times in the last 2 weeks.

    There are, of course, two places to find stories.  My archive, and Fairy Slayer's Sortable Archive.  So if you absolutely hate my massive web 1.0 color coded list, check his 2.0 version out! Hopefully between the 2, everything stays easy to browse.

    Drama!
    It's fun!

    Ponies!
    They are cute!


    tl;dr
    I hit that 5 paragraphs ago!

    Anyway thanks for being awesome and putting up with my nonsense!  Hopefully I haven't scared too many people off with my shenanigans.   This website would be absolutely nothing without you guys constantly sending me content, so thanks for that! I may complain about it on /co/ every once in a while, but having an email box with 50 things to sort through is usually a good thing!

     And the "Real" 1 million hits image, Oh the drama it would have caused... I still feel like I'm missing out some!

      oh lawdylawdy again! lol at that image. No wonder you changed it!

      congrats on a cool million, and just remember there's no way you can please all of the ponies all of the time. If it's worth it, I enjoy the titilating far more than the outright pronz. I'd put the more explicit stuff somewhere else though, but that's just me. If you're going to post f/f then you might as well post m/m...

      So that's what he wouldn't stop snickering about. Cereal, I am very, very ashamed.

      I still lol'd though.

      I'd like to echo the sentiment of thanks. This community is one of the funnest I've seen (granted it's still in its infancy but let me have this okay) and it simply wouldn't be the same without your work. When I saw the posts about the m/m conflict yesterday I thought it was going to be another case of someone being an unmoving statue but the fact that you didn't "cave" so much as listen just goes to show how much you care about this community. For what it's worth, I think you made the right decision.

      I toast my breakfast to you. Here's to another million ponies.

      I just want to extend a huge thank you to Sethisto for maintaining this website. It's my primary way to actually get anybody to even take a passing glance at my mediocre work, and it provides me with a great way to get feedback. It's also one of the better ways to really keep up on what's going on in the community. It can be easy to miss stuff, but Sethisto is always on top of it!

      So thanks loads, Sethisto. I don't know what I would do without this website.

      Sethisto, you are amazing. You practically pulled the community to one location and give us a one stop shop of everything from news to fanfics. You keeping up with the blog for so long is astounding and I congratulate you for that. You have stuck by us though thick and thin, and I can't tell you how much I appreciate that.

      I don't know what this community would have been like if this blog wasn't put up. Honestly this blog has been the center of most the community(this is from what I can tell anyway). Without it (especially after the 4chan fiasco) would have probably dispersed by now. Thanks for keeping the community alive.

      You are awesome, and keep it up!

      This place grows at a terrifying rate. And you are a much better pony than I, Sethisto, for managing to hold this all together as well as you do. If I had been the one to do this? With all the encouragement from the community, I might have made it a week before setting myself on fire or becoming a tyrannical dictator. Or both. I don't know how you do it.

      But you give everypony a gathering place and a one-stop archive for every piece of creative fanwork regardless of format. And its incredible. And pretty much solely responsible for rekindling my passion for writing for the public. It's a wonderful site, a wonderful community, and you should be proud. Everyone should be. Here's to another million. Although I will confess, the next number I am looking forward to is 1,111,111.

      I'm a few days late in congratulating, but it's worth it! I feel quite honored to be part of what might just be the coolest fandom ever (yes, at least 20% cooler than any other.) It's just plain awesome to see so much community and camaraderie based on mutual pony love. I gotta say, I've been with the show from its beginning, and when I watched the first episode on the Hub's site I had no idea of how explosively popular it would become. But having everything pertaining to MLP scattered in various places is annoying. Many thanks to you, sir, for being--well, the hub of it, and collecting and condensing all the lovely news, fanworks, etc., into one well-organized spot. Can't praise your efforts enough, and so glad you decided it was worth sticking with. It still feels kinda surreal, knowing how many other full-grown people are literally obsessed with this "little girl cartoon." So, cheers!
