29 weeksThe Day of the Dead Anthology22 comments · 4,723 views
The Day of the Dead (Dia de los Muertos) is a now-famous tradition from ancient times that has been a huge part of Mexican Culture through the centuries. Like so many things in Mexico, it's influenced strongly by certain aspects of the Aztec people.
It has shaped the way those of us with that heritage look at life and death in many ways, and most importantly on the remembrance of, and honoring the deceased. We traditionally decorate little altars dedicated to the memories of those that passed away… but it's not a somber occasion.

53 weeksPSA: Using AIs to Write and Publish Stories in Fimfiction698 comments · 23,956 views
Hello everyone, this is a PSA (Public Service Announcement, for those of ESL) to put to rest consistent questions about using AI to 'write' stories and publish them here. This is not intended as a poll or a request for feedback. It is exclusively a clarification on an already-existing rule.
People ask: "Can I, oh great and powerful D, post a story or chapter that I got ChatGPT to write for me?!"
And the answer, my friend, is... No.
Absolutely not. Not in a thousand years!
Because you didn't write it.
It is not your creation. You are NOT the author. In fact, you are the opposite.
There seems to be some confusion when interpreting the following rule:
Don’t Post (Content)

109 weeksPhishing Awareness167 comments · 15,501 views
Have you ever found yourself in a situation like this?
And then you magically find yourself in a suspiciously familiar site, except that you're not logged in, and it requires you to do so?
Well. Don't log in. This is a scam, and a cheap one at that.
There've been recent attempts to obtain Fimfiction users’ personal data, like passwords and/or emails through links like the one I'm making fun of above. And a distressing amount of people don't seem to know what phishing attempts are.
If you HAVE entered a site like this and put in your data, make sure to follow these basic steps at least.

120 weeksAll Our Best [Royal Canterlot Library]115 comments · 18,304 views
As should be obvious from 15 months without a feature, life has taken the Royal Canterlot Library curators in different directions. While there’s still plenty of awesome stories being written in the My Little Pony fandom, we’re no longer actively working to spotlight them, and it’s time to officially draw the project to a close.
Thank you for all of your support, suggestions, and comments over the years. We’re grateful to have been able to share seven years of exemplary stories with you, and give more insight into the minds behind them. In the spirit of the project, please keep reading and recommending fantastic fics to friends—the community is enriched when we all share what we love.

155 weeksReunions: A Swapped Roles Contest!57 comments · 16,495 views
Okay guys here's something fun presented by Nitro Indigo.
Presented by me, I guess, but I digress.
Swapped Roles Contest
Last year, I (Nitro Indigo) noticed that there was a surprising lack of roleswap fanfics on this site. To fix that, I decided to run a roleswap contest over the summer themed around secrets. While it didn’t get many entries, it nevertheless attracted the attention of some big authors and was the origin of two of my favourite fics. Overall, I think it was a success, so I’ve decided to run another one!

228 weeksMinor Rules and Reporting Update747 comments · 15,985 views
Hope everyone is enjoying the new year.
Some small changes have been made to our rules as well as to the reporting process.
Rules
"No attacks directed at individuals or groups due to race, gender, gender identity, religion or sexual identity."
This better clarifies our previously ill-defined hate speech rule and includes groups as well as individual attacks.
"No celebration, glorification or encouragement of real life criminal activity."
This includes past, present and potential future crimes.

There's truly no time like the holidays. What's better than copious amounts of food, quality time with family and friends, hearing the sweet sound of Trans-Siberian Orchestra on repeat, and unmanagble financial stress from our capitalist overlords?
Gift exchanges of course!

FIRST!
Nice banners!
Oh Pinkie... y u so funny?
Still no Rarity one.
SO CLOSE BUT SECOND
...No Twidash?
:c
1182077 *Fourth
1st Annual Ponyville Furry Convention?
I see that Pinkie's head has been lopped off...
Ah, brilliant!
Did I notice an increase in Dash/Anypony shipping?
Luna? Nice.
Big Macintosh juice box on the table. So Rainbow Dash is drinking Applejack?
Instead of the bar poker banner, I will use the FlutterDash banner as my permanent one
1182084
When is there not an increase in Dash/Anypony shipping?
That is a nice Luna banner.
>No non-pony JoJo banner.
knighty, I am disappointed.
Nice.
why are fluttershy and twi looking at rd like that though?.....
That third one is so fucking beautiful as I can't even.
Dat Rainbow bunny.... ohhhh 10/10 WOULD SMASH
Too much awesome to handle.
Shutting down.
1182109
Neither can I, but it's my new permanent banner instead of Flutters+Angel.
omegaforums.net/attachments/den-the-pirtate-jpg.7706/
First two I love, third is eh, and last one should bring a smile to everyone's face
I request MOAR LUNA!
I think I earned it lol (got the Luna tattoo and everything, I think my devotion to the Luna Republic earns something)
Some very nice additions.
Y U NO HAVE BEST PONEH
Yes! new banners with Fluttershy on it!
knighty, I don't mean to sound like an ungrateful fagola, but is there a chance for a future "use your own banner" that is just displayed to you? Like, no site data usage whatsoever?
And thus, the Mane 6 stared at my tab bar until the end of time.
I like Pinkie Pie hiding in the background in the Lyra/Bon Bon one.
Moar Luna!
And the last three are epic.
1182097 Personally, I use the Solar Flare one (nightmare Celestia)
Y NO VINYL AND OCTY?
hehe awesomeness!!!!
knighty, can you just ban TheaterCritic and Enigma? It would be entertaining and no one would miss them
---
I see you beat me to one of them. Great job
> no twiluna or twilestia
*sigh*
no Applejack. I'll stay with my current one
Intresting banners.
That costume rainbow is in ... I like.
I'm loving that new Luna banner.
No Sweetie Belle banners in the new set.
Are you even trying?
These are some choice pieces. Good job!
still no real AppleDash...
I have a thought, why not add a "mature" one for those who are viewing mature material?
It certainly speaks to the greatness of this fandom how many awesome pictures you can find.
I'm sticking with the fishing Woona, though. The others are nice to look at, but none of them can beat the feeling of whimsy I get from that one. It always puts me in a story-reading mood.
I feel it might be a bit late, but are you taking request at this time?

Oh, new banners? How 'bout one that says "Fuck Knighty With a Glass Shard!"
Not a single banner with Spike in it... why am I not surprised?

1182260
Wasn't that a banner at one point o.O
1182069 None of us care, moron.
