640227 ME3 was I will confess a let down but it was still good and I loved the dlc for it. But the dlc endings was a little bit cheap on there part, and I have not heard of CDProjekt RED. What is that?:rainbowhuh:

639696 Charmed to make your aquaintance, good sir! :raritywink:
As for little ol' me...

I'm Kizuna (not my real name obviously, so don't ask what it is). I'm a 23 year old female and still trying to find where I belong in this world, but I'm currently studying political science, Japanese, and economics. I'm also an aspiring freelance model and cosplayer and I work as a part time receptionist at a local sales company.

Favorite books are The Hunger Games Trilogy, A Clockwork Orange, The Host, The Hobbit, World War Z and Holes by Louis Sachar.

Favorite movies include The Dark Knight Trilogy, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, Fight Club (still haven't read the book yet :twilightoops:), The Avengers, Galaxy Quest, 28 Days Later, Red Eye, Toy Story, Tangled, and Ted.

Favorite games are the Metal Gear Solid Saga, Final Fantasy 7/8/10/13, several Pokemon games, and the Kingdom Hearts series.

I got into Friendship is Magic when Chad Rocco of The Guy With The Glasses posted a retrospective on the previous MLP generations/series as well as an indepth review on FiM, so I decided to finally give the show a shot. Binged on at least two seasons worth of episodes and got hooked instantly. Favorite pony in the Mane Six is Pinkie Pie, because she and I both love to party :pinkiehappy: and favorite background ponies are Doctor Whooves, Vinyl Scratch and Lyra.

I joined this group because like others, many TCB stories just left an awful taste in my mouth. I agree human history is far from being a bundle of sunshine and roses, but the misanthropy and the vehement way some of the fans and authors defend their viewpoints frightened me. Not to mention how certain people will crucify you if you even admit to not liking their stories...

Anyhoo, I'm glad to have found this group (as well as the Humans Aren't Bastards group). I've revealed quite a lot about myself, but nothing compromising hopefully. :twilightblush: Hope to more fun times together! :pinkiehappy:

Now if only I could just get over this flu... :pinkiesick:

hello i am OdinBrony i like long walks down the beach at night filled with bloodshed, and honorable battle followed with smoking then with watching little cartoon ponies followed by more smoking and then playing video games and smoking

Pony: Princess Luna is best pony and princess that's all that needs to be said on that point

Name: CrossoverManiac
Age: 36
Nationality: United States of America
Race: Native American
Religion: Christianity-I have no problem with changing my nature and there's a difference between learning to be better human beings and drinking mind and body altering juice.

I am the guy who thought up the Human Liberation Front back when they were brainstorming TCB stories on ponychan.net because I was of the opinion that not everyone would accept ponification. It really wasn't that much of a stretch, really. But then the pro-TCB turned a logical consequence to ponification into the TCB-verse version of Nazis. Now, the HLF used in the TCB stories could have been independently thought of and has no connection to the posts that I made on ponychan, so I'm not sure if I can completely claim that they're using my ideas. Oh well. What bothered me about Chatoyance's stories was that her ponies acted more like G1 than G4 ponies. Ponies in season 1 could be greedy, selfish, even bigoted (Bridle Gossip). I singled out season 1 because, according to Chatoyance, season 2 had the ponies 'corrupted' with human faults when Lauren Faust left the show even though ponies had faults back in season 1.

I am namar13766.

I am a 25 year old medical student. I heard about the show on Spacebattles, but thought it was just overrated hype. Then I actually decided to see an episode, which happened to the Season 2 finale. I ended up thinking, "So we have a pony being surrounded by hellfire and cast down into oblivion and G-rated Succubi. Why do people say this is a kids show?"

Favorite Mane 6: Fluttershy
Favorite Princess: Princess Luna
Favorie CMC: Scootaloo
Favorite Background pony: Roid Rage

I like deconstruction/reconstruction fiction. I like the "Humans are flawed" trope as opposed to the "Humans are the real monsters" trope. We're the result of billions of years of evolutionary success, so I believe we must be doing something right. I read the original TCB, and while I thought there were gaps missing, I thought it was tolerable, as opposed to JDR's version, which has the ponies be super-Houyhnhnms.

I also call the TCB ponies "Ponzis" (Pony+Nazis) and refer to TCB Celestia as Princess Final Solution. I'm living about an hour's drive from Auschwitz, so I know exactly what I'm saying.

Oh, you know, just the guys who make the best RPGs since Bio fucked up. Responsible for both Witcher games and working on this little thing.

I'm DBK, I'm Australian and I write stories about talking colorful horses. Also best pony is Braeburn.

G'day, gentlemen.

I am Shaden Wryce, a person of undeterminable age and gender, with an username I have no logical explanation for. I have too much free time, but too little resolution to create anything worthwhile.

I joined the TCB group because I found the idea of becoming a pony rather alluring.

I also joined this group because I got annoyed by the :"Humans are assholes, go pony and be redeemed!."- thing.

In my free time I like put on my spinny cap, sit down the corner and pretend to be a vegetable, or throw household objects at various people.

Ah, Dalek the Ninth. We bid thee welcome. :rainbowlaugh:

I am Velkaden, the original founder of this group.

I am 22 and live somewhere on the East Coast of the US. I am a biology major and I like science in general.

I like cyberpunk, military SF, technology and fishing. And military weaponry.

I created this group because, well, I wanted a place where like minded people (I.E. those who don't like "standard" TCB can chat.)

Kemotx. So happy to see that I'm not the only one hating TCB's :twilightsmile:

I took my sweet time to post at the forums... *Ahem* Anyway... here it goes!:rainbowdetermined2:

I'm known even by my best friends IRL by Hywther Soresk (Hywther or Hyw for short), I'm a 22 years old guy from the northern Spain that loves almost any kind of videogame and I have a very bad habit of devouring books (I can't live without reading a bit every day). I'm a fan of science-fiction and fantasy genres on literature and I kinda have a personal interest put on philosohpy and geography (I aim to complete my career on History and Geography in some years after all) and... I love to learn about almost everything except maths. I hate maths.

I joined this group after I read some stories about TCB. I found fascinating the clash of ideas and philosophies behind each story and I had probably a bad habit to enjoy the debates on the comments box of those stories, so I decided to view both points of view and joined both groups and make my own assumptions based on all the info I could gather from stories and comments,

About FiM... I enjoyed the show "hidden" from the comunity since 2011 but it was during 2012 when I made the jump into the community and "embraced" being a brony (Turned some of my friends into bronies too). Also I don't have a "Best Pony"... but Twilight and Pinkie are two of my favourites from the main cast. :rainbowkiss:

And thats all, I hope to be more active around here and that's stuff. See you around!

I'm inqusitor-Awesome and I'm an 18 year old guy who likes video games, history, music, movies,

and for FiM, i think Luna is the best pony, and the human race is the best race

Time for my introduction.

Name's Planetarian. I finally decided to get writing about a week ago.

I study Information system technology and management (IT that's tasked with management focus).
I do not prescribe to the "humans are bastards" mentality, but I don't think that "ponies are monsters" either. I am not really interested in heaping insults either way, but I don't like either school ultimately.

My fics are not the ones that make people read and like and feature box'd... my longest fic is now 50k words, and it's a slice of life. The other fic is the reason why I've finally joined TCB and alternate TCB.

(shameless Plug: My fic... Puella Magi Pony Magica pretty much sums up what I am looking at when it comes to TCB. I actually feel butterflies in my stomach over it as it's loathed and it doesn't induce sexual arousal... )

I am not an American. I am a Canadian... I guess I don't prescribe to the provincialism of only talking about the American experience. Maybe that's some of the reasons why the stuff I am writing's really not the cup of tea for everyone.

I've always had a soft spot for Applejack. Filly wise it's Sweetie Belle that I find most interesting, but it's hard for me to say "best pony."

Hello everyone. I'm lordvad3r95, I currently have two published stories on this site, and I joined because I feel that the TCB is antithetical to almost everything I believe in. I love music, reading, writing, video games, movies, and my country. I count myself a humanist, and I enjoy talking to people. In addition, I am also 17 years old and going into my senior year of high school.

I got into the fandom in May of 2012, and I haven't regretted a single moment of it. I am also a member of the "Humans Aren't Bastards" group as well, I have a deep and everlasting love of humanity as a whole, and I have great faith in our ability to make the best of whatever situation is thrown at us.

I am Arkalest, same on the SB forums.

hi every one i am a new brony i am a 27 year old ex us army paratrooper who lost his right arm and eye in Iraq beyond that not a real interesting guy i like any thing to do with military history and 1980s rock and video games

Hello everyone, I am a young man whos into MLP and its fandom. I joined this group because I hate TCB and the meassage behind it. Although some fics are okay but others are just anti-human to the core.

I'm Jared Aubrey in alaska! I'm 11 and I like video games like medal of honor call of duty black ops Kerbal space program portal 2 and Garry's mod. I like old tv shows like the dukes of hazzard knight rider airwolf Space Battleship Yamato and Tom and Jerry. I like MLP (it's oblivious) probably not how you spell that THING in parenthesis. anyway no best race and best pony is applejack. OH and I am extreaaaamly mature for my age. try to kick me off this group and I will say FUUUUCKKKKK YOU!!! UNLEASH THE CUPCAKES PINIMEANA *citizens screaming and running for their lives* :pinkiecrazy:

640518 hey if you like is if watch Spac Battleship Yamato!

uuuurg FUCK YOU AUTOCORRECCCCCTTTTT

I am known as DOCTOR FLUFFY! I'm a college student in Pennsylvania, though I'm thinking about transferring to art school. It'd be nice to do that-my pony drawing skills definitely need work. I'm the horrible person that wrote Starvation, cause I'm a huge fan of Redskin's work. In fact, I wrote Starvation just to address all the Fridge Horror I came up with. I like video games, anime & manga, drawing, and skiing =D
Rarity and PInkie are best Mane 6, Vinyl and Button are best background ponies, Luna is best princess, and I... haven't thought of Best Non-pony.

I'm Lordoftheprak25 I am 17 I joined this group because most TCB fics make humans out to be evil, violent, barbarians that need to be converted and I think that misanthropes are absolutely stupid.
I also am a atheist a gamer and have been on this site for a year and this group for about five months. I enjoy fics involving the military or crossover fics. I found out about ponies when I was with my sister who has a daughter and she wanted me to watch it with her then a year after that I got interested in the show from fanart and fics I had sen and watched it online and feel in love with it. My favorite villein discord and my favorite fic is the conversion bureau: the other side of the spectrum.

I'm The_Machinist. I ain't a big fan of the stories that portray humans are idiots, but the stories portrayed in Windchaser's verse are rather good.

My favourite book has to big 20,000 leagues under the sea by Jules Verne, and my favourite author is H.G.Welles.

My hobbies have to be writing, playing Red Orchestra 2, and reading. As well as talking to people, which is why I'm attempting to get an internship with a radio station out here in Valparaiso, Indiana.

I was borne in Russian, and I moved here when I was an infant. Pm me if you'd like to talk.

I am actually more or less pro-CB, but I promise I will leave if my sort are unwelcome here. I don't mean to be offensive and I know we already have two groups of our own.

I am currently and apparently slowly writing a fic in the CB vein. Although I have tried to give the anti-CB side a fair hearing and not stack the deck completely against it, I still find the human side of the argument fundamentally irrational and unreasonable.

(Incidentally, though, the ultimate conclusion to my story basically permanently ends forced ponification and actually ends up with an option to convert back.)

The character who is my namesake on this board is kind of the trope of a Knight Templar or well-intentioned extremist, with a human counterpart who have, over years of interacting with each other, sort of turned into punch-clock villains to each other.

My tastes in literature kind of change a lot. Currently, in "real" literature, I am obsessed with the poetry of Gerard Manley Hopkins, the comics of Jim Woodring, and the jurisprudence of Richard Posner.

Also, what I am writing now is very influenced by Chatoyance, so if that makes me a jerk to anyone here, I have no problem going away. I just wanted to say hi.

3225380, welcome!

We don't have a problem if your work is influenced by Chatoyance. We will however, have a problem if your behavior is influenced by her.

Anyways, your story sounds interesting.

Woah, Velk, that name change, man.

I'm Chamber Brony, a 19 year old story writer with some dark secrets. I hope that I will be a nice addition to this group. As you can see, I'm pretty much obsessed with Gargantia, so my fics will be influenced by it.

I'm Thinkingaboutthings, a 22-year old vagabound. I've been writing since my last year of high school, and have been steadily working on various projects since then. Much to my eternal shame, I am actually only a member of this fandom because of the Conversion Bureau; I read about it online (on TVTropes, I think), was shocked, read a few of the stories online, was shocked further, and....well.

Yo, DarthSonic66 reporting in! I may write some Other Side of the Spectrum sidefics and a few ACB fics of my own. Nice to meet ya! :pinkiehappy:

Mr. P here. Been a member of this terri-mazing fandom on and off for about two and a half years.
Favorite Movie is Independence Day. Haven't yet decided on books or video games. Probably never will.

Warwolf
Group Admin

Geez, how is it I haven't done this yet?

Hey all. Name's Warwolf. Self-published author as of 2006. Also have five stories here on the site, all of them ongoing. My interests are far too many and numerous to list. I became a Brony largely in part due to the fact that the first episode I saw was actually Luna's first major appearance in the second season— and one could argue it was her first major appearance in the series proper, seeing as Luna herself doesn't appear till the tail end of the first two episodes and we were dealing with Nightmare Moon for the most of that time, Luna Eclipsed. It remains my favorite episode, and Luna remains my favorite pony, though she's quickly had to share space at the top with Twilight and Sunset Shimmer, if you can believe it.

If you believe those who see the ACB as some kind of shadowy illuminati-esque group, I'm supposedly the Dark Lord of this group, akin to Vader or Voldemort.

I write fanfics about ponies, so if that makes me a Dark Lord...well fuck it then, guilty as charged. :pinkiecrazy:

Most of you know me. I'm reasonably active, though I tend to lurk about and keep an eye out to make sure everything is okay. Hell, I became a mod at some point without even knowing it. And I have no clue when, honestly. Nobody ever told me I'd been promoted, so imagine my shock when I learned about it. But it's all cool anyway. I tend to get very verbose when speaking on various matters. Seriously, go read some of my longer-winded posts, you'll see what I mean.

I'm always open to discussions on anything and if you need help from one of the admins? My door's always open. I can't always guarantee I'll be able to help, but I'll always give it my best to do so. :pinkiehappy:

Post on, group members! Post on!

Hey, Wave Blaster here. You may have heard of me or my story The conversion Bureau: Judgement Day, which should tell you my interest in the TCB genre.

For those who haven't heard a word of me, I'm mostly curious about how could work the TCB setting without the classical conventions like Tyrant!Celestia for example. Also, since i'm a long time comics book fan, I really like to explore how it would be if the TCB story clashed with other fictional universes, specifically with other forms of divinity (in counterpoint to Xenolestia's "a god am I" mindset).

Hi! I'm Sora2455. If you're a TBC reader, my story is here.

I have an irrational preference for the original medium of a story (The Harry Potter movies after CoS sucked) and I hate people setting up elaborate changes in the backstory of a FanFic with no more warning than an AU tag. ...and yet I'm hanging out here. Go figure.

Favourite pony? All of them. Okay fine, uh... probably Celestia, actually. When written with due care. Favourite race....? Why would I watch this show if ponies weren't my favourite race? After them... probably the moon people from the comics.

I'm DolphyBlueDrake, known as either Dolphy or Dolph by my IRL friends. I don't really like the idea of humanity losing to the TCB, so I've never finished one of those anti-human stories out of disgust, but I've read a good number of fics where the humans win or at least it ends in a stalemate, so I'm more of a fan of those kinds of fics. I joined this group because I needed a place to present the story idea I've been having for about two weeks now. I already posted the idea in the idea thread if anyone's interested in at least taking a look at the idea.

As for my favorite pony, it's Lyra, but Trixie's a close second. My favorite race is a tie between the dragons and the ponies, but I really would love to make friends with them, not become one of them. I like my humanity.

Hi. I am currently working on a TCB fic set in 1937. I joined this site so I could work on it. Anyone want to hear more?

I'm Billy (redacted).

I'm a 47 year old nearsighted fat balding man from northern Louisiana.

I roleplay a 17 year old girl named Ariel Schnee on the net. That is how I prefer to be addressed and treated as. So, please, call me Ariel and use female pronouns.

Here are pics of my preferred form.

http://fanficparadise.com/arielschnee/gallery/Avatars/Ariel.jpg
http://www.fanficparadise.com/arielschnee/gallery/Shangrila/Ariel/index.htm

Sometimes, I also take Weiss Schnee's form as well.

http://fanficparadise.com/arielschnee/gallery/Avatars/Weiss04.jpg

I have maaaaany hobbies.

Here is a list of stuff I used to own.

http://www.fanficparadise.com/arielschnee/animelist.htm

Yeah, used to. Some methheads broke into my house while I was away and stole, or destroyed, everything I had. Including the house itself. And all my family photos/heirlooms/keepsakes. If I ever get my hands on them, I'm going to kill them. Slowly. Painfully.

As for TCB, I like stories of the "good" ponies laying the smackdown on the "evil" ponies.

As for best MLP race it's definitely: Kirins for the win!^_^
