    To Writing Spirit regarding Panatrophia, you're gonna tag me but not unblock me?

    I don't know if you'll notice this, but I'm getting this off my chest. Here's the comment I wrote before seeing I was still blocked

    Why is 2019 the final Bronycon?

    I'm not a traveler so I've never been to one, it really means little to me as a convention. But as a fan of Friendship is Magic it seems like a sign the fandom is willing to let it dwindle and that's a shame. I've seen numerous shows and comics fandoms dwindle to almost nothing since the 90s and it's extremely disappointing.

    Just because you can defend an idea

    Doesn't mean it's a good one authors. And it doesn't mean your critics are required switch your way of thinking.

    And here's a funny thought, you do something you're embarrassed by but no one knows it, then it being mentioned is your problem, not theirs

    Do you think the other Pie Sisters can flip their personalities like Pinkie?

    Of course we know that in certain situation Pinkie can snap, lose all her positive energy and just deflate becoming sad, angry and more than a little crazy, but do the other three have similar situations?

Fanfic writers and the Changeling battle · 12:12am May 9th, 2014

Maybe it's inappropriate to make my first, and maybe last, blog post to be a complaint but I've seen a couple of prolific authors these days writing stories with variations of the changeling battle from season 2's finale. They have one thing in common.

The authors just won't END them! It just feels so tedious, stretching them out. All that builds is frustration. Instead of being an epic battle it just becomes a slog.

If you want fanfiction done to your exact tastes and specifications, write your own. :pinkiesmile:

4040506 cause there's no reason for the review or blog features except to tell everyone how WONDERFUL everything is

Reviews don't just consist of telling people, "This story didn't do what I wanted to do, thus it sucks," though. They're actually a process whereby you weigh the pluses and the negatives against each other.

4040526 do you harass everyone who leaves you a negative review? I'm perfectly happy to both block you and report you to the moderators. and just so you know, I didn't say the story was bad, I said I disliked it. I don't feel you did enough in story to justify the changes you made

That's not an invalid point. Pacing is something that can be difficult and people tend to link "epic" and "long" together like they're perfect matches.
