I'm writing an essay for English class reflecting on how I've grown as a writer, and I decided to hop on this old account to see how things have changed.
My stories were... well. From my 19-year-old perspective I think a lot of them lacked substance. I cringe to think about them, but at the same time it's nice to know I've grown. We all had to start somewhere, lol.
What's up guys, long time, no see. So I've been mulling this over for a while: publishing the drafts of unfinished stories. In particular, there was one story on which I was hard at work, an extended Capdagio narrative (crackship, if you're not in the know). I wish I could finish that story, but it's been a while so I don't think that'll happen. However I worked hard on the seven-or-so chapters I
Twilight sends a copy of the Friendship Journal to Sunset and the girls at CHS. The HuMane Six get so confused over the differenes between themselves and their pony counterparts. Twilight feels inadequate. Eventually, they decide to start their own friendship journal.
I can't see the new EqG shorts right away because I'll be at Youth Group. 
I guess I've been out of the loop, because I didn't even realize we were getting new shorts until a few minutes ago. Can't wait, though. We're getting a Twilight song, Rainbow's Daring Do antics, Pinkie Pie at the cafe, Rarity with her S1 butterfly wings... Sounds awesome!
Aight so if you've been following my most recent story, Lack of Faith, you'll know my concepts for Scootaloo's parents. Her father, Shortstack Outflow, the CEO of Cloudsdale's plumbing company, and Angel Pulse, her stay-at-home mother.
I finally designed them! Without further ado:
SOMEONE DOWNVOTED SUGAR BELLE'S STORY! 
Why?!
Okay, that story had 0 downvotes. It was the second story of mine with a substantial amount of up votes and 0 down votes.
Who would ruin that?

Almost every story gets downvotes. Part of the game, I'm afraid.
Some cold-hearted idiot who didn't even bother to read it, and just did it out of spiteful laziness?
That would be my best guess.
Nothing is perfect.
That was the moral of Disney's Tron Legacy.
3088976 I know, it's the worst!
I would at least like to know why my story deserved this.
Part of me suspects it was a troll who wanted to ruin the perfect record.
They're just big meanies.
A while ago I had three stories in the "No Dislikes Group" group (yes, there's a group for that). Then someone went through the entire group and downvoted every story in it.
I think the site admins might have undone that though, because two of my stories are back at zero downvotes. And the group is now called the "Less Than 10 Dislikes Group" group.
Of course it's possible that somebody just doesn't like Sugar Belle's Tale. I can't imagine why — it's a nice story. But there's no law against people having bad taste.
3088983 Well, haters gonna hate.
Now imagine getting 97 straight upvotes before that downvote. Twice.
3088985 I've seen that group. One of my oldest stories is in that!
As for SB'T, I get people might not like it, but could they at least leave a comment saying why?
3088986 Did that happen to you?
That's cool!
3088981 Mine too.
It happened to me too, on Ahuizotl's Price I was just so freaking mad!
Then, I remembered one of my favorite songs.
it just needs more Octavia, then you're golden.
3089012 Yeah. It did.
You want to hear something even better? One of my fics was downvoted pretty much as soon as it was added to the no dislikes group.
3089015 Cool.
Don't you just hate it when people downvote stories for no reason? It makes me mad as well.

Don't worry about the downvote. Many stories have suffered one or more of that because of jerks. The internet's full of them. You just gotta deal with it.
3089043 TROLLS ABOUND!

Well, this sort of thing happens. You just have to live with it
Doesn't mean you can't scream and yell and rant about it on your blog
*hug*
3089524 *hugs back*
3089527 Better?
...yeah, I don't see why you got down voted. The story seems fine to me.
Personally, I think if you're going to downvote someone, you owe an explanation why, if only so they don't repeat mistakes in the future. But I didn't see anything meriting a downvote.
3089569 Better!
3090506 My thoughts exactly!
Thanks for reading the story, BTW.

No problem! I need to read more stories featuring the Elite Four anyway.
As I say, I didn't see anything downvote worthy about it. Do you have any plans for filling in the backgrounds of the rest of the Our Town ponies? Seeing as how you pointed out that Nightglider hasn't been well developed yet, I'd be kind of curious to see your take on her.
3090797 That would be something to think about!
I'll keep a Nightglider story in mind.
3090747 Great
3090831 Ooh! I'll bet you'll love what I have in store for Night Glider
3091510 Does it involve shipping?
3091548 Not quite... but it does involve another character (or characters) you enjoy
3091571 Sugar Belle? Sonata?
3092625 You'll see
3093039 My eyes will have been fried long before then.
3095393 I'll have to hurry up then
3095448 Good idea!
3095540 Yes!
