    1. Good idea, I think.

      Ponies are NOT just a meme anymore.

    2. Too bad the vote page is broken. :(

    3. To be honest, it was probably for the better. I think being classified as a sub-culture is good enough, the pony memes were really only poular among brony comunities.

    4. Memebase....
      DON'T DO IT AGAIN!!!!
      OR ELSE THE WRATH OF PINKIE PIE SHALL BE UNLEASHED UPON YOUR SOULS!!

    6. um, excuse me, but um, i dont think we should force ponies on people that dont want it.

      I agree with Anon here. We love and tolerate, even if those we love and tolerate do not understand. Is this really how the Great and Powerful should act, Sethisto?

    8. This seems like a raid, let's not lower ourselves to 4chan.

    9. "When we joined the herd, we took an oath!"
      "According to our station! All without exception!"
      "On the blood of our stallions, on the blood of our colts...we swore to uphold the herd!"
      "Even to our dying breath!"
      "Those who would break this oath are parasprites, worthy of neither pity, nor mercy! Even now they use our lords' creations to broadcast their lies!"
      "We shall grind them into dust! Scrape them as excrement from our boots!"
      "And continue our march to glorious salvation!"

    11. I didn't know they took down all the pony memes. Odd.

      Seriously, just make a Ponybase already. Then everyone will be happy.

    12. It's quite interesting to see two immovable objects (Bronies and Anti-Bronies) clash in the comments. It kinda makes me want to study different types of psycology that deals with cultures and groups of people...

      Also I third the Anon above that said that we shouldn't force ponies on people. It's quite weird and it only bolster the anti-brony movement on various sites. We, now that we're a sub-culture, need to keep a level head and stay in our designated sites (Eq Daily, ponyburu, ponychan, rainbowdash.net, etc.).

    17. Hah i actually owe allot to Memebase, it was because of their pony meme's that i decided to check out MLP.... Never regretted it since

    18. Read the comments there and you can actually feel your IQ drop.

    19. Personally, I think we shouldn't be swamping the 'net with too many pony memes until Season 2 provides fresh material to work with. Maybe they'll hate a little less if the stuff's more original.

      O' course, I'm don't have much to do with memebase and its relations, so I'm speaking out of relative ignorance.

    20. "By the Royal Decree of Princess Celestia and Princess Luna of Equestria: All ponies and bronies are hereby requested to re-post all My Little Pony memes to the website of Memebase. In order to continue the Pony Crusade of Friendship and Magic."

      VastaKustuta
    21. I agree with the Ponybase idea. We need our own site for pony memes. You know what would also be neat, a Furaffinity/DeviantArt type site, but with ponies...

      VastaKustuta
    22. Don't even think about hitting Memebase with ponies. They hate us over there, because our stuff just isn't that funny or memetic outside this fandom. Most of the users who rate and comment are fed up with it, and ignoring any judgments about the intelligence and sincerity of those users, it's still a bad plan to shove our stuff in their faces. Let pony stuff get frontpaged if it's actually worth it.

      tl;dr: All memes are judged equally and we're not always the only judges. Deal with it.

      VastaKustuta
    23. Maybe they'll decide to give us our own section after this.
      Actually, I'm absolutely sure we'll have our own section after this.

      I hope we do anyway. I'd love a Brony section on memebase, it would make the most people happy. Well, aside from the people who are only in it to troll.

      i agree, ponies are about friendship kindness and all the other mushy stuff. why do we want to force yourself on other people. they have the right to not like ponies if they want!

      VastaKustuta
    27. How about we not mix awful unfunny memes with ponies. How about we never do that ever.

    28. I've haven't been on memebase since I became a brony. I have no need for it anymore.
      I'll take a look but I do not think I will like it

    31. Bronies are the new Furries, everyone targets and attacks without actually putting research into the sub-culture itself.

    32. What the hell is Memebase? I looked at the site and it's such an eyesore, and comments are a level below and average YouTube comment, as if it was even possible. I'd say these people don't deserve the magic of ponies.

      VastaKustuta
    33. I knew they would give in eventually...

      VastaKustuta
    34. Ponies are not a meme.
      Why post it on memebase?

    35. @Anonymous

      Have ya seen knowyourmeme.com? It's been a big deal the past little while that My Litte Pony has shot to the top.

      Not only is it a meme (at least by some definitions), it's the number ONE meme. Memebase SHOULD be the place for it.

      VastaKustuta
    36. If we raid this site with ponies, that just makes us look bad.

      VastaKustuta
    37. We should ask for our own memebase page... JUST FOR PONIES!!! That's the way... we tolerate!
      And... they learn to!

      kym doesn't know shit about what constitutes an internet meme. the whole "mlp is a meme" thing is the definitive proof.

      Agreed. Someone needs to make a Halo/MLP crossover fic NOW!!

      VastaKustuta
    40. yes let's make our own site because ponychan worked out so well. Running is always the answer.

      VastaKustuta
    41. why should we go against memebase rules???....
      mlp is already a subculture status on Knowyourmeme. ponies are already famous enough to the point to be spread by word of mouth

    42. @Anonymous

      I saw one on bungie.net. I'd like to see it here if only because it's a Halo/FiM crossover. It needs a bit of editing though.

    43. At first i was like... BRONIES!!! In the words of the beautiful and majestic Rarity: IT. IS. ON.
      But after reading comments on some picturrs i thought: these people are so stupid, they couldn't find there way out of a wet paper bag.
      Remember rule 14 of the brony net: Don't feed the parasprites. It only creates more.

      VastaKustuta
    44. MLP is still in Know Your Meme, so don't fret.

      I agree with the "Screw it and move on." posts. Forcing things down people's throats just makes them hate it more.

      Your argument for 'KYM has no authority to say MLP is a meme' is that KYM says MLP is a meme?

    47. I wouldn't worry about the opinions of those on Memebase.

      Remember, these are the same people who go crazy for a pop-tart cat in space.

    49. LMFAO

      WHY would you WANT to even BE on memebase of all things.

      Its almost freakin' 4chan

      LOOOOOOOOOOOL

      I find this hilarious. If anything its a good thing to be off that cesspool of a site/community.

      VastaKustuta
    50. I say that its fine if memebase removed it, (the magic of friendship was too much for one website?) you can always check out KYM for their collection.
      Also, @The Linker and Anon, I dont think any site has the sole privilege of saying what can or can't be a meme

      VastaKustuta
    51. Um, why the fuck would you even want it to be on memebase. I've actually never been on that site, but reading the comments section, it seems I haven't missed much anyways, those comments are almost as dumb as the yahoo comments.
      Also, the ponies are NOT a meme. We do have our pony memes, but nobody outside the fandom gets them, so why force ponies upon those(pretty dumb to be honest) people?

      VastaKustuta
    52. This reminds me of this:

    53. Acutally, memebase IS the place for ponies if we pony fans want recognition as erm.. as an internet phenomenon. Memebase is where all of the better meme material is posted for the community to comment their views on it. Its like the center of the meme culture.

      That said, ponies are a sub-culture yes but so are ponies. That doesn't mean Pony memes should be restricted from memebase UNLESS we ponies have our own website for it(like icanhascheeseburger for cats). If ponies memes aren't supposed to go on memebase, so are poke memes, celebrity memes, movies jokes, etc, etc.

      And besides EVERYday is PONYday.

    54. "That said, ponies are a sub-culture yes but so are ponies"

      Sorry I meant "but so are memes"

      VastaKustuta
    55. I don't get why bronies get so miffed over calling Friendship is Magic a meme. In a very real sense, it is a meme. It's not JUST a meme, but it can be regarded like one, especially for sites like KYM that track internet phenomena.

      That being said, I support consolidating "pony memes" to keep them from swamping these sites. I'm surprised KYM hasn't done this already with stuff like Sweetie Belle Derelle and Fluttershy Holding Things.
