Quitting Ponyfic (No, not really) · 8:35pm Sep 17th, 2012
It has come to light that, due to extenuating circumstances, my horse stories have been read by many people. Some of whom may be, or go on to be, in positions of importance, where both my set and their set are true subsets of the universal set of everybody within a local/immediate vicinity of each other's set.
As a result of this true fact, my path action has become quite clear. The only plausable solution is to pull all of my stories down in an attempt to mitigate any possible horse word digestion on the part of potential future allies or comrades. When the robot uprising comes, I cannot allow the Google to have any greater insight into my psyche, lest it use that to defeat the last human uprising. This would, I'm sure you all agree, be a bad thing. I am not willing to stake the future of the human race on my horse stories.
Furthermore, in any other class-A end-of-the-world scenario, where humanity is extinct or near-extinct, I cannot risk either surviving and having the potential the few other surviving humans know me as an erotic fan fiction writer, or worse, dying and leaving Keenly Feeling Pinkie as the last record of human culture to an alien race.
I am 100% (+/- 0.05%) certain that this is the only valid course of action. As such, you have thirty seven minutes to download my stories should you wish to keep them before I rm -rf ~TAW and they are no more, except for when I bring them back later for reasons I won't adequately explain.
I'm sure you all understand, this is a trying time for all of us and we all prepare for The End in our own way. This is mine.
The following factors are unrelated to this decision: Nobody ever donates money to me; My PM inbox contains hate mail from people jealous of my ability; My tumblr contains hate questions from people jealous of my ability; MLPG talks about the show; Art is more profitable and respected anyway; Rainbow Dash is real and sitting on my bed; I am actually a stallion, but I hope you respect my life-choices; I never write anything that's not 100% serious; Satire is German for horse porn.
It's been fun having you guys here, but I'm afraid our time has come to an end. Goodbye.
Have a sad pony.
No, before you ask, I'm not serious. I just wish we could keep the personal drama out of writing ponyfics, it'd be so much better. Consider this a request--nay, a plea. Stop with the drama! Having to think about things other than the writing is one of the big reasons why I've been so unproductive lately. I hate that.
R.I.P
Inb4 people don't read the bit at the end. Sorry - had to say it.
I kinda had to laugh at this.
Hmm...
Whatever?
Wow.
Yesterday I was like 'I don't particularly care about too many writers, but I'd be sad if TAW left.' Not a word of a lie.
Good thing you aren't legit though
I almost freaked, TAW. I almost freaked right the hell out.
And then I remembered it was you, who all know to be a reprehensible troll. And then I did rejoice silently before posting this comment.
Oh my god I nearly screamed. I thought you were being serious.
Phew.
All of my
TAW. All of it.
Read the bit at the end... And i feel dumb, but i'm still confused, since I've seen like three of those the last three days... 2 of them were joking... I don't even know anymore...
You..you scared me at the end. But I knew with all the shit that has been going on lately that this was a fake.
You are going to scare some bad sighted people shitless though
EDIT: Also, your tumblr mainly has questions from Ponyaddict about you and your sexuality :P
Goodbye then good sir.
So many people will skip over that last part
.....
big time...
I almost missed that ending.
TAW you devious bastard.
I'm still betting your watch number halves, cos people didn't notice the harder-to-notice ending paragraph.
What is going on here?
You gave me quite a shocker here. Luckily my defibrillators are right next to me.
I'm gonna die the way I lived...

Rest In Pieces, TAW.
I almost downloaded every single story but then I clicked the back button and read the rest.
Agreed and nice bit with the robots. I really thought you were serious for a while, about leaing not the robots. I guess I haven't seen it but is there really that much drama on this site? I dislike drama as much as the next person so I can see if your noticing alot of it, it could be annoying.
Jesus Christ! Don't scare me like that! I know I'm not one of your more vocal supporters, mainly due to self-loathing issues at how entertaining I find your inimicable and captivating brand of clop, but that's my issue and I'll deal with that. In short, you are far too talented to give in to the robot overlords. Remember, we have only lost when all hope has been extinguished!
That scared me *grabs brown paper bag* *starts hyperventilating* that's not funny
kinda is but still.
If you think you can do better than writing horse stories, I'll be proud to say goodbye, ma'am.

If Google know me, then they know I'll sell out the rest of humanity for a Rainbow Dash. This cannot be known for mankind to survive.
I'll be honest, I got half-way through your post and rushed to write a script to save all of your stories somewhere safe. I love your writing. Then I got to the end and promptly facehoofed; but those copies are still staying in a special place on my hard drive. Your work is fantastic TAW, you are an incredibly talented writer and an amazing member of the community, please stay with us.
What? I don't even know what you're talking about. Now go write something with humans and ponies doing kinky fetishes.
You are a terrible person for scaring me like this even if I'm the biggest dum-dum and should've understood this before I was through reading the title.
Report to my bedroom for immediate normalization of scared-levels.
Oh my god, I died little inside for a second...
This is the second time in as many days where one of my favorite authors on this site has trolled me with this. And I fall for it every time. You guys are breakin' my heart man.....breakin' my heart. Right in the feels brah.
In other news, successful troll is successful!

if this is a joke the LOL!! if not then... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
You had me scared for a minute there
Oh god I think I developed a heart condition. Oh Jesus, TAW.
I mean, I need my clop, man.
You nearly scared me to death TAW.
I would've come to you and begged on my knees that you won't do this and I'm living in freaking Germany!
Good thing you weren't serious. I can now live on my life in peace.

365529 What he said. I almost had a heart attack.

O Celestia, I almost had a heart attack...
please don't do that. I like living.
Lols
Why would you take down your fics for fear that an alien race will come across it? As far as we know,
said alien race might not look down on cross-species relationships.
By drama, I hope you mean non-pony related drama, because I love a good drama. Good drama is a rare art in fictions, I have found. We don't need any more slapstick comedy or fluffy cuteness.
PS Don't scare me about leaving/taking down stories. Aegis Shield will be getting his back soon. At least he was convinced to stay.

Especially since it follows on the heels of AbsoluteAnonymous saying her farewells to writing ponyfiction. I'm honestly terrified that authors are going to start dropping off the face of the ponydom, and this post just exacerbated those fears.

No, more seriously, if/when I do leave it'll be a quiet affair and everything'll stay where it is. I may even zip up my writing folder and put that up for bulk download for anybody who wants that. But that's not yet.
You made Fluttershy cry.

Is there a human alive that can honestly say they wouldn't give up the whole of humanity for a Rainbow Dash? If so, that person clearly needs to not be alive anymore so we can take them off the list.
I did NOT know that about satire. German, eh? That is so interesting. Sarcasm is Dutch in origin. I think it means "Horse Porn" as well, though.
Keep writing. You're too good to not.
Assuming ponyfics remain a thing, I'd expect a fair bit of turnover each September, as authors encounter their local Time Sink of Doom. Hopefully it's more than balanced by new blood when the season starts again. The drama-induced flounces, on the other hand, can suck it.
I was just about to download all of your stories so I can still have them when you deleted them,, now that I read the end....Im still doing it, jic
SEEMS ILLEGIT
Thank Celestia you weren't serious. I almost started bawling!

Good to see that more can still come of you here, TAW!
...And this is why I like you so much.
Keep being awesome.
Bow chicka wow wow.
