I've started working on a page to list all the various official off-site Fimfiction communities as well as unofficial ones.
You can find it here

If you run any kind of Fimfiction community elsewhere such as a clan in a game, post it in the comments and I might add it to the page. When it's done it'll replace the chat button, and chat will be in a dropdown from it.

This is just a quick PSA to let people know that explicit images of any kind are not allowed in group threads or comments, or indeed anywhere else on the site. The only exceptions are NSFW blog posts and NSFW story chapters (but NOT cover images). This was not previously in the FAQ despite always being our policy, which was a mistake on our part. It has been added and anybody who was in violation of this rule previously has not been punished, only warned.

Join up and play some vidya games. Or whatever the kids call it nowadays.

It's a thing now so, yeah, go ahead and use it.

edit:

I also feel like I should mention that over the past week or so, I've optimised a lot of the site code, to the point that most of the site runs somewhere between 4x and 10x as fast as it used to. I hope people are enjoying every page loading essentially instantly even at peak times, but if you get some slow pages (which are always slow), I would like to know so I can work on these areas.

Since it's been requested numerous times, I decided to work on making it possible to select multiple banners to cycle through.

Click here to go to the banner selected page, click the banners you want and click the button at the bottom to lock them in.

Hey guys, put some new banners up today. Click images for sources

We used to have a basic report system a while ago, but due to some unforeseen consequences it had to be taken down. For a long time the only proper way to submit reports was to PM a moderator, which is woefully inefficient and would usually result in a long wait to have your problem resolved. No more!

Even the magical land of Equestria isn't always safe from darkness and deceit. Luckily, certain special ponies are ready to fight for their way of life.
