Ye all doth protest to much. Tis a website, do ye go mad with horror upon walking through a locale in a bookstore that contains content not to your liking in order to make way to the aisle you seek? I think not, Drama Queens.
It's not even possible to see furry porn on that website unless you have an account, and the comic was gold. Seriously, the fact that some people watch My Little Pony religiously but can't stand the thought of accidentally being exposed to questionable artwork from another fandom is ironic.
No shipping OC's, No Furaffinity, and no more of this pseudo-pornographic fan art pictures that keep on cropping up. (Along with the regular 34 that is being made.)
You can love and tolerate all day long but you have to draw the line somewhere.
1) FA is like DA, just.. a different focus. Which means that the vast majority of "bad" content is required by the rules to be behind a content filter. An exception or borderline example can slip through, of course (not to mention the idiot who breaks the rules, though they tend to get banned), but for the most part.. if you're visiting Anon, 95% of the soul-scarring stuff won't be visible to you by default.
2) OCs are fine, and in some cases can actually be pretty awesome, but yeah, I agree, they really shouldn't ship with the main characters. Developing a friendship or such is fine if it's handled tastefully, though.
3) Is there any kind of way to make certain pictures require a click to view? That way, if a bit of fanart is borderline, it can be hidden and you don't have to view it if you don't want to? Some recent art has CLEARLY been meant to ahh.. provoke.. and then some of it hasn't, but some people have minds that go that way anyway..
i saw this comic and immediately after that searched for it at google images "Cool, so that's how that thing i saw at the zombie movies is called" *suddenly* -friend on MSN: "Hey what are you doing?" -me: "you really want to know?" -"Yea, why not" -"okay then *sends link*" -"DUDE WTF GROSS WHY ARE YOU LOOKING AT THIS?" -*sends comic link*
Furry, at it's basic definition is a fandom enjoying anthropomorphic animals. MLP is a show about anthropomorphic ponies (they talk, wear clothes, live in houses, etc). MLP fans are fans of anthropomorphic animals, ponies specifically.
Technically thats correct to a certain degree. But honestly now. When somebody says Anthro, do you think of animals or those weird half-animal half-human things?
In definition, yes, we are all furries. But seriously now. Anthro is more of a question of their physical state. Giving a pony, human characteristic like talking and living in houses doesn't make them Anthropomorphic. When ponies begin to physically resemble humans by giving them hands or bipedal legs and such is when they are considered Anthro.
@Anonymous Exactly. And, fyi, I am pretty sure there is a certain comic dealing with a condition very similar to this one, if you don't mind: http://www.sabrina-online.com/2009-01.html
Just remember: you hate furries and everything they do.
@Anonymous Exactly. Not to mention that the idea for this comic clearly comes from a certain webcomic, if you don't mind: http://www.sabrina-online.com/2009-01.html But remember: You hate furries and everything they do.
I guess it the reputation furries have behind them. Its just the mindset of the internet that if its associated with a furry, its... Well, a piece of faggotry.
Normal people don't have that type of reputation so whatever they draw just might be herald as the Mona Lisa even if the art made by a normal person and a furry are of the exact same quality.
Its just that reputation they have that makes a big difference.
Someponies need to man the fuck up. Gore and violence, a ok! Website that requires an account to see anything questionable hosting a pony comic? Kill it with fire!
I love all this hostility towards furries. You clowns have no problems with all the shipping and clopfics here, but so much as associate a furry, and it's OH NO WTF IS THIS SICK SHIT NO THANKS ILL PASS.
If it's posted here, there's a pretty good chance it's within this blogs "quality guidelines", and it's worth a look. Have a bit more faith in the staff here.
@Anonymous I still check the site for certain fic updates, but I saw this and I just had to post. Kinda like visiting Detroit after moving out in the 70s just to see what happened to your old house.
Not to bad, actually. I had time to focus on my exams and I managed to scrape by with A's and B's. Also thinking of writing original works over the summer between semesters if I can ever get motivated enough.
Here has been fine, lots of new people joining up, lots of new fanfiction to read (Fallout :Equestria and Progress(The Luna fic) are two of my favorites, and I managed to get three more people into the series :)...Except my reception on the moon is kinda slow :|
I've seen the Fallout fic, but it looked too OC for my tastes. Been keeping up with Administration is Magic and have kept on the lookout for more Luna stuff.
And yes, the fallout one is OC driven(Though in recent chapters there have been an increasing number of moments about the shows main cast;rather gripping), but it's also well written, and if it's well written I will give it a look(My main hobby is reading :P)
I am also reading Administration.
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6982210/1/Progress There you are, look at that.
Unless you've registered and clicked to agree to see mature stuff, FA is completely safe to browse. Well, almost completely, as people sometimes don't mark things properly.
I don't get the fuss about FA, as I have routinely seen worse on the magazine racks at the grocery store checkout lines (No, I don't need to know that celebrity number 27 had hip implants or ab o suction, thank you; FAT 3 headed PERSON ON TABLOIDS NEXT TO MY CANDY RACK. RAAAAAAA)
The Art sucks, the red eye is disturbing, it even makes my eyes hurt just looking at it. You can see the outline sketches, how the crap did this comic end up on Equestria Daily i have no fucking idea
inb4 people overreact because they don't like the site the comic is hosted on and pretend they didn't expect the rules of the internet to apply to ponies. I mean, come on now, the whole thing started on 4chan, you can't say you didn't expect the community to develop an unseemly side.
The comic I find quite funny personally, and I don't see why this is even a discussion.
@Naxts Anthropomorphic: Giving human traits to a non-human thing. Anthro. does not just mean giving them human-like bodies. Talking, baking, reading, wearing clothes, MAKING clothes...I could go on and on...They're all human traits, that are given to ponies (a non-human thing). Thus MLP is anthro. Have a nice day.
Furries. I can tolerate you guys, but god damn that website. there's something sinister about it... like tuning into a number station accidentally or walking through a dark alley lit by flickering fluorescent lights at night. *shudders*
All of you who were frightened by having to read a comic on FurAffinity, please note that it is also available on Inkbunny. https://inkbunny.net/submissionview.php?id=104573
I'm not sure that pointing to Inkbunny will help with the people who freak out over what they might bump into on FA.
But for those who freak out: Grow up. FA is an art site that caters to a wide spread of tastes. Sometimes there will be people posting things that you don't like, are turned off by or that down right squick you. And do you know what you do when you run into things like that?
You go and look at something else, which is the exact same advice I've been giving for almost two decades.
(BTW, if you refuse to look at FA you are missing some incredible artists and some incredible deals on commissioning high quality art.)

Celestia darn it all, It's just a website, We of all people should Know whats it's like to be made fun of for being in a fandom.
ReplyDelete>read comic on Furaffinity.
ReplyDelete>World did NOT end.
Like Sethisto said - just hit "next" below the image and you'll be fine. I read the entire comic just by doing that.
ReplyDeleteYe all doth protest to much. Tis a website, do ye go mad with horror upon walking through a locale in a bookstore that contains content not to your liking in order to make way to the aisle you seek? I think not, Drama Queens.
ReplyDeletelol, if hasbro has the team release things like this in comic form in the off season...
ReplyDeletewell, that would just be cruel because then the bronies will NEVER see daylight again.
It's not even possible to see furry porn on that website unless you have an account, and the comic was gold. Seriously, the fact that some people watch My Little Pony religiously but can't stand the thought of accidentally being exposed to questionable artwork from another fandom is ironic.
ReplyDelete... Hahaha, Fluttertree.

ReplyDeleteAlas, but the locale bookstore doesn't contain hardcore fetish porn.
@Adrian Brony Why ever would you want to see that deplorable fire ball, anyway?
ReplyDeleteAre my nights not good enough for you?

La Barata, I direct you not to Cupcakes, but its following. You are too late :D
ReplyDeleteSeriously though, generalizations are not nice, nor smart.

ReplyDeleteIs not even hardcore, it's just your standerd porn where the subjects just happen to be covered in fur.
I wonder how many of them have trouble with Star Trek and Mass Effect :D
ReplyDelete@La Barata
ReplyDeleteOnce upon a time this was true.
No more. Already the OC's sprawl across ponychan. Even worse, they're being shipped with the main cast. The fandom is twisted.
(funny enough, the OC's being shipped with the main cast are all from furries I believe).

You love and tolerate everything, but not furries. Odd. But PLEASE, don't let this discussion escelate. We did have this often enough.
ReplyDeleteHere's my stance on this..
ReplyDelete1) FA is like DA, just.. a different focus. Which means that the vast majority of "bad" content is required by the rules to be behind a content filter.

I love how cool pinkie gets when she puts on the sunglasses
ReplyDeleteA good one! Definetely liked how that one progressed, and the Ditzy cameo as well. XD
ReplyDeleteI also spotted another good comic in the progress while there. Once it's finished, I hope it'll get featured here too!
SO what, Fluttershy is a kitsune?
ReplyDeleteNo, Fluttershy is a Tree.
ReplyDeleteI actually had a red eye some months ago, and it was at the start of the latest university semester... poor Pinkie Pie, awww.
ReplyDeleteAnd Fluttershy lives the dream at last! ....yay.
Further proof Fluttershy is a druid.
ReplyDeletei saw this comic and immediately after that searched for it at google images

I'd click on the link to read it, but it goes to furaffinity. No thanks.
ReplyDelete@BagOfChips
ReplyDeleteYou misunderstand.
I don't like the fact that people are making pony porn. The fact that it's the furries making it makes the situation so much worse.
It's nice to see Pinkie being the normal one for once while another character has the reality warping powers, I thought it was pretty clever.

But remember: You hate furries and everything they do.
@Cottonmouth Just because that goes on there doesn't mean the rest of the fandom is doing it stop making such irrational conclusions.
ReplyDeleteAlso lol Fluttertree
I remember that time when I became a tree. So glad Pinkies eye went back to normal, that was so traumatic seeing her like that. The poor dear.
ReplyDeleteHEY. HEY GAIZ.
ReplyDeleteI THOUGHT COMIC WAS CUTE AND FUNNY.
... ok do what now?
oh Hi there Luna, no I'm not a Druid you silly Pony why would you ever think that.

ReplyDeleteLove and tolerance, right?
I've seen the awful pictures they've posted of me, I don't know why they do that.
ReplyDeleteBut I went there, like reliving an old memory. Wait that's what it was, silly me.
Hi, author/artist of the comic here. Thanks for the kind comments!
ReplyDelete(As for the unkind comments, is it worth it for me to point out that Red Eye is *not* porn?)
Someponies need to man the fuck up. Gore and violence, a ok! Website that requires an account to see anything questionable hosting a pony comic? Kill it with fire!
ReplyDeleteSeriously. Man up.

@kinkyturtle
ReplyDeleteJust one question: Did you get the idea with the red eye yourself, or was it inspired by something?
Luckily, I've never had red eye myself, but Uncle Kage, the chairman of Anthrocon, did once, and posted photos and a story on his webpage about it.
ReplyDeleteI don't really remember what inspired this comic; I think I was trying to think of fun, harmless, non-character-breaking ways for Pinkie to be scary.
I can't hear you all over the awesome content we get here :]
ReplyDeleteI love all this hostility towards furries. You clowns have no problems with all the shipping and clopfics here, but so much as associate a furry, and it's OH NO WTF IS THIS SICK SHIT NO THANKS ILL PASS.
