Clarification on GR.14 Anonymous 04/07/2022 (Thu) 01:33:52 Id:6f893f No. 394 [Reply]

I was considering making a thread for a simplified pen and paper sort of game meant to be some interactive fun for anons. Make a character, join in, play a loose zap style game set in the world of FIM. Every day would count as one turn and each anon would write in their move which would get processed at a consistent time. I would add pictures to convey aspects of the world. Before creating the thread I checked the rules in case something like this was mentioned and I saw GR.14 "No roleplaying". It seemed clean cut to me at first but I think that this thread could be fun for a small board like this that does not get many posts; it would offer some consistent interactivity without getting too noisy. I figure there is a chance that the rule was not written to stop game threads of the type I described but with the intent to prevent some other sort or roleplay (like for example always roleplaying as a character when you make your posts). Even if it's a small chance it can't hurt to ask.

>>394 I always thought No RP rule is meant to stop bullshit like I'm a bad filly, bla bla bla, ask me questions Anons! not CYOA-like things or prompts.

>>394 Sounds to me like basically a CYOA, should be fine. >>395 >I always thought No RP rule is meant to stop bullshit like >I'm a bad filly, bla bla bla, ask me questions Anons! >not CYOA-like things or prompts. Pretty much.

>>394 I like the idea. Like D&D, but with ponies. I guess it's just CYOA like other Anons have said.

So, it turns out the latest wonderful decision by the /mlp/ moderation was to filter the word "barbienigger" in an attempt to discourage FiM fans from speaking out against EqG spammers. It's obvious that the jannies over there are furiously biased in favor of the barbiespammers, so the question is: How can this site become more active? Everything is here for a pony-only haven, but it feels like lots of ponyfags are still wary about switching sites, or don't even know this place exists.

Quick question about rule #2 Anonymous 03/19/2022 (Sat) 00:58:42 Id:46c69f No. 387 [Reply]

Is watersports considered too extreme? Personally I see watersports as OK but scat and diapers are gross; just wanted to be sure if that's agreed.

mys_elf Board owner 03/19/2022 (Sat) 17:25:36 Id:33770e No. 388

>>387 Should probably be fine, just keep in mind board rules (mainly nsfw vs sfw images depending on whether your posting on /fim/ or /clop/).

Emergency bunker for foreign language communities? Anonymous 02/25/2022 (Fri) 18:14:24 Id:89c364 No. 371 [Reply]

Just saw this thread on /mlp/, looks like a brony community from China is being taken out for one reason or another. https://boards.4channel.org/mlp/thread/38267127 Some anons there have suggested this place being a potential spot to move to, along with some of the potential challenges that may bring. Could be either as simple as allowing foreign language threads and/or a general on the /fim/ board, or as elaborate as creating a foreign language board. Any thoughts on this?

>>376 Still accessible through a mirror, not the original. But I'm not sure if the link will paste right with chinese symbols in it. https://nimingban.org/f/%E7%BE%8E%E6%BC%AB Try this then follow the arrows for drop down choices till you get to their /co/ https://nimingban.org/ As for the language, both sides of the fandom know how to use googletranslate and there's browser extensions to autotranslate which /mlp/ and chinanons have used to communicate before. Though they suggest DeepL instead for a better translation

>>377 Seems I am unable to connect from my home ISP. I did manage to somewhat gain access to the site though. >As for the language, both sides of the fandom know how to use googletranslate and there's browser extensions to autotranslate which /mlp/ and chinanons have used to communicate before. Though they suggest DeepL instead for a better translation I'm still not wholly convinced of the effectiveness of autotranslate. There are also some other considerations as well, but let me think on it for a bit and ask other staff what they think.

Alright, after some discussion I think that we'll give it a try. We'll allow one /int/ thread on >>>/fim/ for languages other than English. Some things to note: >The OP should be in English >Most non-English posting should be contained within >We recommend including screenshots of links to non-English destinations >This is very much an experimental sort of thing >All rules are still expected to be followed

Is pic related banned?

Anonymous 02/08/2022 (Tue) 04:45:07 Id:0110a2 No. 349

>>348 I don't see why it would be. After all, it has its roots deep in G4/FiM with Fighting is Magic and all that history. At the very least, none of the current rules mention it. Also, I could have sworn some anon has already posted TFH art in the months past and nobody raised a fuss. Can't remember what thread it may have been in though.

>>348 It's not banned, but I don't think threads about it would be on topic to FiM.

Saging Anonymous 11/08/2021 (Mon) 18:17:49 Id:d80928 No. 308 [Reply]

How do you sage on this image board? Can you sage at all? If you do does it always show that you saged? There's times when a discussion is going on but it's not relevant to the threads OP so I want to sage.

>>305 Looks like it was just a warn: https://nhnb.org/.global/logs/fim/2021-10-26.html The staff member just forgot to change the default ban text.

>>306 So he posted anthro, what a fag. I tried searching the logs before making this thread but opened the ones on the footer which aren't very descriptive. https://nhnb.org/.global/logs/.global/2021-10-26.html The board specific ones are kind of hidden away, the icon doesn't even appear inside threads, only in the index and catalog.

Am I allowed to love Starlight? Anonymous 08/13/2021 (Fri) 02:10:06 Id:2670ed No. 158 [Reply] [Last]

I'm a bit of an anachronistic sort. My favorite season is the first. My favorite episode is Cutie Mark Chronicles. My waifu is Glim Glam. I am not one of the spammy shiteaters. In fact 4cuck has me on a 60 day for trashing barbie. I love pony for horses and nothing else.

/mlp/‘s alt site thread was debating this so I thought I’d bring it straight to the jannies to finally answer. Clearly Sunset is banned even in her cameo from The Last Problem but are the Sirens from Shadow Play that the Pillars fight banned as well?

I've said I don't personally mind pony Sunset, but I see the wisdom in a blanket ban as the barbiefags attempt a nose under the tent strategy.

Is this also banned? Anonymous 09/27/2021 (Mon) 23:41:46 Id:b17f2f No. 296 [Reply]

Hi, I was wondering if the G4 images from G5 movie are allowed, or banned as well. Pic related.

mys_elf Board owner 09/28/2021 (Tue) 01:14:27 Id:0a5776 No. 297

>>296 If it is identifiable as a G5 topic, it's banned from /fim/.
