For my Other, I write fanfiction. Shipping fanfiction. And as far as *clop* *clop* *clop* goes, well...
The first time I saw anything that interested me about My Little Pony was a rule 34 thread on /b/ for it. I enjoy 34 far too much, and collect it, and I knew that anything that could inspire so much rule 34 so quickly must be impressive on some level. The pic that got to me most was a humanized topless lineup; the characters were all expressive, and I knew that the artist must have paid attention to the characters' personalities to make the piece. I figured that if that artist could care about what these characters are like enough to create the art, then I would probably find them interesting as well. There was an episode link in the thread, and I found myself watching Suited for Success.
So, in a way, I suppose you all have rule 34 to thank for The Three Notes.
Oh man, where was I when this poll was going on? I love this show so much, I would've voted for most of those choices, especially clopping. In fact, my pony addiction is actually starting to impact my social life in ways I can't repair! Now if you'll excuse me, I have a date with a noose and a wobbly stool.
Since you mentioned moving things around, could you do something about the searchbox? It covers text sometimes in my firefox, rather annoying. Maybe move it to the right side?
"spending my freetime" I cannot not think about ponies. I have never been a big fan of something before, but the ponies manage to stay in my head 24/7.
"clop" Ahem, well... It´s hard to clop to ponies but not impossible, so here and there... <_<" ">_> But I have to say, that I don´t clop as much as I used to do since before the ponies.
"I watch the episodes silently" um yeah.
"other" my favourite. I´m drawing Ponies. And I´m also sometimes thinking about making some fanfic´s about ponies. I can´t write though since I have a very little english vocabulary (I speak german). So no stories :P.
annoy friends (hehehe, all the time. I am now a running joke with the ponies)
I collect all the toys (CURSE YOU MCDONALDS FOR NOT CARRYING RAINBOW DASH!!!!!)
spend every possible free time with ponies (I am here, am I not?)
I set my computer/cell wallpapers to pony (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22222115/Pony%20Desktop.PNG)
I set my ringtone (All you have to do is take a cup of flower...)
*clop* *clop* *clop* (really, this was only done because I do dramatic readings of friendship is sexy on the tinychat (http://tinychat.com/mlpfim), among other fanfics)
Other
You want to know what the other is?!? Do you? If you do, then comment request it, I have a nice picture (perfectly work safe, don't you get any ideas internet) to show you.
Well, anyway, I voted for basically everything I could, because on a scale from one to ten of how much I like this show, I'm PINKIE PIE!!!
Oh, and Sethiso. Just so you know, you can right-click the poll frame and select "open frame in new tab"(at least with chrome you can) May or may not be useful.
I am a bad ponyfan. All I do is chat about ponies, write fiction about ponies, and watch cartoons about ponies. Look at that chart and all the things I fail to do. *kicks the ground dejectedly* Jeez...
I ha d a hard time with the choices because for several, it is true but to a milder form.
I don't collect all the toys but I do have an AJ and a custom Derpy. I talk pony excessively with my friends but only those who are also 'bronies', I don't really mention it to the rest of my friends. Have an Applejack wallpaper, but that is just as likely to get replaced by some anime or Sci-Fi wallpaper as another pony one.
The "clop, clop, clop" one made me lol, and considering the risqué pony art and stories I have seen browsing various sites, does not surprise me at all. This is the INTERNET.
No clopping to be done here....though the fic "Coming Clean"...well almost XD I've written a few fanfics but never posted them or finished them for that matter, I'll get to it eventually. Got my three favorite ponies on my computer, AJ, Pinkie, and Dash. I want a Gilda toy ;_; but it'll never happen, feels bad man (Same goes for Trixie)
Not a fan of the whole shipping/clopping thing. I'm a fan who watches episodes and enjoy normal fanfiction. Though it's rare that shipping stories catch my eye or grimdark for that matter too. Also I love the stream of fan art that comes in,I hope that there can be good fan animated episodes/shorts soon.
I have told others about my Brony status on the forum I mainly go to only to have them dismiss it. Though I introduced my sister to it and I think she may join the herd soon.
But all in all I think that this is one of the most sensible fanbases I've ever been part of, save the shipping but still great content.
>"I guess that explains why the Lingerie Pony post was so popular..." Which reminds me that there's two more uncolored pics in that post.
The results from the poll are absolutely cloptastic. I know I bug at least a few of my friends with how much I ramble about Ponies, but I don't collect off all the toys, but I do tend to buy Pinkie Pies when I see them around. Primarily with molded hair. I know I bought the Bubble Blowing one because it was rubbery.
Most R34/clopfics of the ponies does nothing for me in the way of clopping, though I still tend to find them amusing or just funny. Some of the funniest I've seen are of them in fetish situations. Yet I keep stumbling across squeaky clean material that mashes my buttons. (Or for all I know, maybe it was subtle fetish material.) That's where my clop vote comes from.
I would have ponies on my wallpapers, but I use those for personal reminder notes, and I'm not ready to get rid of the ones I have in use right now. And my ringtone is a tune I wrote years ago as a personal identifiable themesong, so I have no intention of changing it any time soon. Not even for ponies. (Though now I'm tempted to see if I can make my phone say MUFFINS when I get an SMS text message.)
I was one of the 'other' voters along with everything else I checked. In my case, fanfic and getting people into the show that would never have been into it without me.
I have a Friday ritual of making a nice breakfast so I can eat it while watching ponies, and I do a little bit of doodling and lurk on whatever threads I can find, but I'm really not as involved in the fandom as other bronies are.
...not that I *wouldn't* buy the toys, if all the toy-having places didn't require me to take two buses across town to get there.
@Anonymous Whatever floats people's boats, I guess, but I find that the more emotionally invested in a character I am, the less I want to see Rule 34 of them. Clopping to Rainbow Dash just seems wrong now.
I just watch it Friday nights, write the occasional fanfic, and move on with my life until a new episode or I feel like writing a fanfic. If I ever find another fan in real life, I would probably talk to them... in private.
I just watch the show but haven't tried to get others into it. It doesn't mean I wouldn't try, but the thing is I just don't know anyone who would probably be interested in actually watching the show. I don't think any of my friends would be interested in watching cartoons let alone one about MLP. Not that we don't have anything in common I just like to many different things that seemingly no one in my area also likes.
I can be pretty annoying, even though I sadly don't think that very many people will be receptive to conversion to Ponyism; so far I bought 3 of the McDonald's toys while they were being sold and will soon be obtaining another...wouldn't mind getting more toys; my current wallpaper features marshmallow Peeps, but I have MLP images to sometimes use as icons/avatars and backgrounds; I watch episodes both silently and loudly (with much literal LOLing and commenting and talking to the characters and such)...:p
Weird poll is weird. I wish there had been an option for closet pony fans: "I silently watch the episodes and don't do much else" isn't really accurate for anyone who creates (or for that matter consumes) pony art/fiction/video/music/games/etc.
I chose other, so here goes. Well, a bit of a friend of mine, Kroze of Yugioh Abridged as well as few people I know on YTAS' chat website later on, were bugging me about it since December, telling me how great it was, I was skeptic, yadda yadda yadda, I'm sure you've all heard it before. Back on track, I watched it all in the span of 2-3 weeks last month and have pretty much become OBSESSED with it like everyone else.
I watch on Youtube and look through whatever fanmade media I can find that I like (the eurobeat mixes, lulzy comics, epic fanart, etc) except for fanfics as I don't bother with those at all. I can't draw, so fanart's out.
I don't plan on telling anyone that doesn't already know unless it comes up. I missed the boat on the McDonalds toys and judging from my reaction to seeing the Pinkie Pie bubble toy in a store earlier today, I must likely would've bought some in secret. I'm waiting for Hasbro to get their act together anyway.
I don't spend every second on ponies, but I've found myself searching for fanart (including on this site) for hours.No wallpapers or phone sounds from me...I hope.
Last but not least..."clop"? >_> I'm not gonna judge, but my answer's a blunt NO. The thought of MLP Rule 34 makes me wanna face palm through to my brain. Same with the shipping- well, I can't say that...I don't discuss all of that or whatever shippers do, but if you were to ask me about it, I'd probably go with AppleDash. :P
I voted for *clop* just 4 fun! 6_9 But no, really. Ponies don't turn me in this way. And all of R34 I've saw so far I like only one or two pics. But only Like.
Let's see... Yup, I annoy my friends with pony-related ramblings sometimes. I don't collect any toys, just because I haven't found any good ones yet. If I could get my hands on a miniature Pinkie Pie figure, I'd buy it in ten seconds flat. Spend every possible moment of free time? Close, but not quite. Set my wallpaper to ponies, set my ringtone to ponies, clop to ponies. Done, done, and ohoho boy... done (/reference). I talk about it frequently and I'm in the process of writing a My Little Pony fanfic. It's currently 20,000 words. I spent much of my free time watching pony-related videos on Youtube. I think I'm a pretty hardcore brony :D
I watch the episodes, read fanfics & clopfics, and pretty much get my hands on anything MLP: FiM that I can (like art, albeit sometimes cloppy.) I certainly don't have any of the toys, but I hope to get some other merchandise (blankets, posters, etc.) When I get good enough, I'll probably make a fair amount of fanart. But it's really like anything else; the show, plot, or characters can be developed on, adapted, or transformed to be mediocre or spectacular.

I tend to only use high quality stuff for drawfriend/wallpaper posts.

Yeah, putting the poll on the bottom is a sure way to have it ignored.

I only checked #3 and #4. There was no "and I bug Sethisto thrice daily" option. Other is too nonspecific!
ReplyDeleteI also vouch for keeping the poll topside.
"I COLLECT OF ALL THE TOYS"
ReplyDeleteobviously the best typos today.
