But I just need to make sure, so who do I go to? I don't want to say it in public cause he made me swear to not do to so, because he's afraid someone will take his idea )

You'll want to talk to Orange Fluffy Sheep; he's the head of the fanfic subforum.

Hello! I'm Booka. A little crow told me this is the place to be for all things pony.
A recent convert, however, so I'm a little behind on current pony-events. :modesty:

But crow was insistent.
My favorite ponies are Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie. But I really like all of them a lot :3
Um... unsure what else to say. Umm....

You mean you hadn't been able to watch all the eps yet? Or are you talking about other news stuff? Don't worry, I'm sure you can catch up rather easily if you dig through some threads here if its the latter. :yay:

Another Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy lover? :yay:

That's a familiar looking Fluttertar you've got going there.

Also yes, you never post. :glare:

You're cool and all on IRC but you need to post more on the forums. Also fix those jagged edges goddamn.

Hello, I’m Kiith Soban and I’ve recently started watching My Little Pony because, well, it’s a great show and I think it's definitely better than most shows out there. A friend recommended these forums to me, so I’ve been lurking for about a month. Still haven’t learned how to play mafia and use IRC.

My favorite ponies are Twilight and Rarity.

Well, what else is there to say? I’m 17 and currently studying physics at the UFRJ. I’m not good at art in general. I can’t make videos, remixes, drawings or voice acting, but I do hope to contribute something to this awesome community!

I read that as Homestuck and I had no idea what it referred to. Then I read it correctly and now I have no idea what it refers to.

Basically, in the universe of the RTS game Homeworld, a Kiith is something like a clan and Soban is famous warrior Kiith.

The only thing that is roaming my head is this:

Is it really a Real Time Strategy Game, cause if it is, where the hell has it been all my life :fluttersmith:

If it isn't and you're joking, then never mind! :crack:

(?) · by **Kiith Soban** (?) » Thu May 17, 2012 1:26 am

It's an old RTS series. There's Homeworld, Homeworld Cataclysm and Homeworld 2.

The first one is a really great (and really hard) game about a civilization on a desert planet called Kharak finding a Hyperspace Core that lets them travel through space really fast. A neuroscientist finds a way to hook up someone's brain to a spaceship, then they build a giant ship to contain the Core, test it once, everything goes to hell and it's your job to guide them to their original home planet of Hiigara. It's pretty deep for an RTS. The Historical + Technical Briefing is 57 pages of nothing but world building that doesn't have much to do with the actual game but it's really cool nonetheless. Check it out here.

Cataclysm is about a mining ship finding a million-year-old wrecked spaceship containing a bio-mechanical virus that can make literally organic machines and it starts to eat up everything. Eventually the miners become badasses and defeat the virus. This one feels more like a horror story and provides some insight on how Hiigaran clans work.

Homeworld 2 is about Hiigara vs. the Vaygr Empire. It's decent but not as good as the other ones. 'nuff said.

(?) · by **Throbulator** (?) » Thu May 17, 2012 1:59 am

My brother could never shut up about Home World and how great a game it is/was. As a result I've never played any of them.

Welcome btw :yay:

Lol I was going 'no way is this 57 pages'....

that was my 'I told you so for the day' :modesty:

I've done Rise of Nations, and rise of legends, trying to think of the game my half-bro had that I played....

God damn, it was a game where you could create your own units/animals to attack with.... My god what was it called... It's pretty old, nevertheless, it had graphics similar to Rise of Nations, so I say it was early 2000's, but that was an RTS game for sure...

(back to original point) I have never found a game as detailed as the Homeworld game apparently...

That is one hell of a background check O_O

Teru, you're talking about Impossible Creatures which was made, coincidentally, by the same people who made the Homeworld games, Relic Entertainment.

Hello Ponygoons.

I'm here because Ashenai sent me a message on Reddit after seeing my designs for My Little Pony characters for the Battlestar Galactica board game. (Sorry you had to go through the trauma of making an account) I was quite amused to learn you guys have been playing BSG with ponies for way longer than I have. This fandom is awesome! :awesomedash:

I'm interested in checking out your designs and perhaps playing some games with you. I see you've already discussed them, and I'll be responding and asking some questions as soon as I'm able.

On a side note, hopefully I can fit in here. I fly with Dreddit in EVE Online, and thus have learned the Goon concept of "goodposting" is alien and terrifying to us Redditors. :twonk:

(?) · by **Ashenai** (?) » Thu May 17, 2012 9:04 pm

Hey man

The style of goons in EVE is, uh, somewhat different than what we do here. I think. Although I actually did use to fly with Goonfleet, like... 5 years ago.

Anyway, awesome to have you here! Hope you'll enjoy yourself :yay:

edit: okay that avatar owns

(?) · by **kefkafloyd** (?) » Thu May 17, 2012 9:04 pm

At this point there's plenty of non-goons in here. We've made our own standard of posting, and you seem fine by that one example. Just read the rules and enjoy. :pinkieshrug:

Kiith, I simply can not look at your avatar and not think of some comparison photo comparing the :smirk:

Oh, and welcome to all the new guys, you're all just in time to experience the second long, pony-less summer. Enjoy! :gotcha:

Click here to view video.

Yes, that's Commander Shepard's VA. :gotcha:

P.S.: See that little white symbol on the bottom right? I'm going to put it on every avatar I use from now on so I can switch avatars but people can still know it's me just by glancing at the picture without having to read the text.

E: V I meant my username. Sorry to be pedantic, but that's what avatars are for.

E2: What I meant is, I think avatars should be a way to recognize who wrote which post without having to read their username, but if you change your avatar too often it turns into useless visual clutter, so I decided to put the same symbol in all of my avatars so I can change them whenever I want to. :derp:

Less introducing myself and more coming back from the brink of nonexistence. I'm a part of the forums but disappeared for months due to computer and personal life failure. Essentially, shit happens but I return burning brightly like the phoenix. Or perhaps a lava lamp.

Well, you got a whole summer to catch up on the two seasons. Good luck, and don't worry if you start to giggle uncontrollably everytime a horse pops up in a movie or you're compelled to get in discussions about who's the best pony! :gotcha:

So who here thinks Fluttershy is best pony? We still need a verdict! :twonk:
