Equestria Girls vs. Equestria Daily · 3:50pm May 13th, 2013

This is the first thing I thought of when I watched the EqG trailer.

Excerpt from EqD's fanfic rules:

I lol'd.

I suppose they'll need to eat their own words, yeah?

~Skeeter The Lurker

I bet they would just say it's not a fanfic and so your argument is invalid. :rainbowwild:

In all honesty, though, I've read many fanfics that actually told better stories (or at least told their stories better) than the majority of S3 episodes. Is tackling humanized/anthro that big of a surprise then? :pinkiecrazy:

Equestria Daily is a cesspit. It's run by egotistical bigots. I stopped caring about them a long time ago, they can go fuck themselves for all I care.

It seems you care about them a great deal. What else would inspire you to reply to this post with your opinion? :duck:

1075623 YOU DARE QUESTION MY LOGIC?! :flutterrage:

He wants to make his opinion public, because he cares about his opinions (not EqD).

You forgot to circle

and other broad cultural taboos

Also you don't follow me so you missed my calm the down and think blog.

Equestria Girls, Reality, and the Voice of Reason.

Unf, Unf, Unf... UUUUUUNNNNNFFFFF


Sorry, I couldn't resist.

Yes, how strange we are for not liking someone who writes profanity-filled rants calling us Nazis when we tell him to correct his grammar. What horrible people we are.

1076094 Nazis? When did I ever call you Nazis? Are you just making shit up now? Figures. And yeah, I went off on you guys when I really didn't need to, and yeah, that was stupid. It still doesn't excuse your bias and your egocentric thinking.

Personally, I think humanized should stay dead. Just because a spinoff movie comes out doesn't mean a big deal about a real human reality has to start.

Really, it's only an excuse for the clopfic writers to go to town.

I think if EqD decided to let in any EqG content, things are going to get confusing very fast. It's more hassle than it's worth.

Basically, it shouldn't be considered canon.

But that's just my opinion.

1076135 Thanks for publicly revealing my email, prick.

I was gonna comment, but then I saw the burgeoning flame war, so...

*scans comments*

Well, I was hoping for Equestria Grils drama rather than EQD drama, but it'll do.

You posted someone's personal email address and and a personal email to EQD without the consent of the sender. Posting personal info without the owner's consent is against federal law. Posting information that is supposed to stay confidential is also against federal law.

You just broke federal law. Twice.

The next time you feel the need to post something along these lines, don't. Turn off your computer and do something else for a while.

1076135
Deleted because you did reveal a private email address. You really shoulda censored that; this is calling-people-out-on-their-shit-online 101, man! To anyone reading this in the future: Vimbert was entirely accurate re: the content of the emails in question.

1076455
I kinda had to chuckle at your last line, delivered in what I imagine to be a deadly-serious voice, because I'm sure no one else is taking it as seriously as you. It's a good point, though. (And you'd really win if you actually cited the law!)

1076779
Uh, I can still see the image. Might want to check that.

OH, for the love of the Sun, don't remind me! :fluttershbad:

1076779
I know the law in question, and I'll have it cited in a little bit (TF2 and laziness are my priorities at the moment). I meant to say that last line in a casual tone. :pinkiehappy:

1076779 Vimbert's comment is still up. And I'm not denying that what he said was true, and that was in the past so I'm saying let bygones be bygones. But to post someone's personal information online, as well as a conversation that I assumed would just be between him and me...that's illegal, methinks.

Anyway, I've calmed down now and realized that this is all pointless. But I won't deny that the bit of rule-breaking really pissed me off.

Yikes, forgot to actually go up and hit the delete button. Done for real!

You were falsely accusing him of slander or libel (not sure which it is when it's an online discussion), and he was providing evidence in his defense; hard to slight him for it. The emails you sent him belong to him as well as yourself - that's how it works with letters, anyway - and arguably all he did was take a picture of the 'letter' you sent him and posted it online, which is also perfectly legal. Of course, it all gets gray and murky because this is the internet and the original 'rules' were written for the real world, so... ehn.

1077009
I envy your priorities, sir, and given my immediately preceding comment I'm actually really interested in the wording of that law now, especially considering the DoJ and FBI don't think they need warrants to snoop 'private' email.

Can yo pass the popcorn?:derpytongue2:

Something tells me that the flame war about this in EqD is going to be EPIC.:pinkiecrazy:

I find it hard to NOT think of Equestria Girls as fanfiction.

As good as EQD is, I never entirely got their stance against humanized fics.

Yes, a lot of them aren't good and a lot of them aren't really fanfiction. But the ones that get it right are fantastic and can achieve things that are harder to pull off with ponies. I think humanized definitely has its place, but it's a lot harder to pull off successfully.

As for anthro, well...

We all know what those are really for.

LOLED HARD.

1075530
not likely, they will just now acept storys that fall into the EQG canon, although the prereaders will likely be very picky whit those, if they even dare to pre-read them...

i personaly have read a few storys whit anthro, not many were that good, that stuff is way too hard to pull of nicely, since you need to stay true to canon and think of how the fandom will react when reading it at the same time... being antrofied automaticaly kills some of the charm of the canon because it fucks up a lot of the pony's logistics.

on the humanizaed hand though... people can realy work that shit up, seriously! i have seen some wonderful humanized workbuilding based on equestria`s logistics... why eqd doesnt post it? dunno, but they dont tend to post humanized pics neither, or the standar is realy high for those. maybe they just want to keep it as much "pony" as they can.


... i kinda turnerd this reply on what i consider the most sane and rational stance about antro, human and eqd.
aka, my personal stance: :moustache:

Your statement rings true enough. But still.

One can hope. (Right)

~Skeeter The Lurker

1083456
hope dies last!
(fucking coward is always camping!)

1083831

Coward? Who, if I may ask, are you calling a coward?

~Skeeter The Lurker

1083834 sorry should have clarified it was joke,
"hope" is camping, its a thing on FPS gaming
AKA: hiding in nice place whit a sniper rifle or realy efective gun. therefore scoring like a pro while doing noting.

1083863

Ahhhh. That makes much more sense.

Sorry, I'm a gamer, but not in multiplayer. Also, I did have a feeling it was a joke.
