>>574 Not the board owner, but I don't see why you couldn't make a pony gmod thread. The rule set here is more or less the same as /mlp/'s, with the additions of G5 and humanized/EqG/EqG characters being banned, along with soyjaks and frogposting. https://nhnb.org/.static/pages/globalRules.html I'd say go for it and make a gmod thread here. Might be an idea to include a link to said thread in future gmod threads on /mlp/, whenever it comes back online. That way other anons would know they could continue posting and discussing whenever events like these strike and 4chan goes down.

>>575 Thanks for the thread Idea! Yet I'd still wait for a mod or the owner to confirm if I can, I don't want to get into any problems.

>>574 I was a bit concerned about it potentially being against global rule 10. Talking with other staff, I'm told it's not quite the same. So I think it'll be ok. I think I will suggest that the thread be not intended strictly for advertisement, in the sense that there should be some expectation of discussion in thread. I would think this would be the case anyway, but I thought I'd mention it. >I'm not sure if this is permitted in the rules so I apologize if I'm breaking any. That's what /qa/ is for, we'll do our best to try and answer your questions.

>>577 Thanks for the response! I was thinking of making the same thread that we always have but on /fim/. This would be the same copy, and the thread would be for the discussion of the server, to send screenshots or put a small status on the server (players usually bump the thread with the amount of players on it and/or in which gamemode they're in) with the difference that it'll be for nhnb users and it'll work as a backup thread for situations like yesterday when 4chan went down. like I said, thanks for the response and see you guys later on the thread! (also I probably have a different id, sorry for that)

I have considered hosting a NHNB Minecraft server, so now because of this question I know I can if I want to.

>>579 That'd be fun too, yet we have to get more people and we can't talk about this site on /mlp/. Or maybe this site has enough players for that, sorry for being a turbonewfag

>>580 >Or maybe this site has enough players for that Depends on the level of interest really. There are lots of lurkers who don't post much so the site isn't as small as it seems sometimes. If I decided to host it it would be vanilla 1.2.1 because I prefer older versions and I am super familiar with that one. Pluggins and shit just bloat the game and feel clunky. No rules except no hacking, but I don't know how well I could really enforce that. I think people here are nice enough to get along for the most part, and some griefing trolling and rivalry adds spice to the game as far as I see it. If someone straight up logged in with a nuker or something I would have backups. I wouldn't mention the server outside of the NHNB thread and would hope others respect that to keep it small and tight knit, randoms from other sites would start shit have no investment and be too much trouble the way I would host it. I know not everyone who would end up joining will see this post but a show of hands would be good for me to consider if it's worth it. Even just a few players is enough; server hosting is very cheap and this would be quite low maintnenece.

>>581 Or rather a show of hooves

>>581 Sounds good, I'd even help if I can. I mentioned /mlp/ because since this is my first time using this site I thought that it didn't have too many users and I saw people talk about bringing anons from /mlp/ to make this site more active, but it's nice to see that it could be done only with NHNB users. And of course people would have to discuss what would be better (for example some anons prefer a different version than the one you want to use, mods, etc)

>>583 I'd host anything from the alpha vesions to 1.6.2 Where I draw the line is that they changed flower placement so that it's not in the center of the block and made roses into poppies. They also gimped the oceans and caves in that version which makes the world less fun to explore. If we did 1.6.2 it would have the advantage that there are horses for one thing. There would also be more options for technical builds with hoppers, droppers, comparators, and daylight sensors. If we did 1.2.1 we would get a unique world generation that is my personal favorite where the forests look different than any other version because of a bug. I also know a lot of fun glitches for that version like breaking bedrock, duplicating sand and using it to make belt machines which opens up redstone in interesting ways, and cosetically altering blocks to get otherwise unatainable varients. If we did Beta 1.7 we could potentially move the spawn point to the far lands, although the gimick of those wears off after a while and they are a very unwelcoming place.

>>586 Sounds good, I'd suggest to use Nostalgic Tweaks if people don't mid mods. It's a mod that brings a lot of mechanics from old minecraft releases (beta, alpha and even some post release mechanics). I'd also put it with other mods for old world generation or even mods like Mine Little Pony, but that sounds good too.

Given /mlp/ going down, I think this thread is relevant again to ask about a few similar generals. Namely: >/tf2g/ Similar in concept to the gmod thread, but a lot more active, and some people would say a lot lower quality due to, over the past few years, namefags getting to know each other on steam and acting extremely gay. So: thread topic seems nominally allowed as per the similar decision for the gmod server, but thread quality might be questionable. >/opg/ Similar to /tf2g/ but with maybe less overt gaylust because everyone uses pony models in-game (rather than chatting with anons IRL on steam or something), but is still similar to /tf2g/ in that most people know each other by name. It's not like there's namefagging in the thread but it's still a thread entirely about a community of anons pretending to be ponies, and not about discussing the show or whatever. >gaming thread A thread for anons to advertise multiplayer games and get together to play with fellow horsefuckers, basically /vm/ but poni. As far as I know a lot less issues with potential namefaggotry but also a lot more "advertisey" in that it's mostly people trying to find players to get together. Probably fine but mentioning for completeness. What would be the janny fiat should any of these three generals, or similar types (the common theme being "centered around a bunch of anons doing something together, mostly off-board but using a board thread for central organisation"), wish to move here assuming total /mlp/ death?

>>631 >OPG >Not gay or namefaggy I don't know if you've actually opened the thread but it is 100% name dropping namefags with homolust added to it. Everything else is fairly accurate

>>633 There is a non-zero amount of lust but because, again, most anons are playing as ponies, a lot - I would say the majority even - of the hornyposting is actually about mare avatars. And the "gay" part is just hornyposting about stallion avatars. There is very little IRL hornyposting. Note that some people for example have multiple OCs and any comments will typically target a specific OC, which should be proof it's almost never about the (human) player. This is as compared to the TF2 thread where there are no avatars or ponies, anons just get to know each other on steam and then hornypost about the actual literal human. And to be fair these are the "worst" cases, most of the discussion in both threads is usually just about stuff that goes on in the game, organising shit, events, gameplay commentary, etc. rather than any namefag discussion.

>>631 Failing this, what about: >>>/fim/19240

>>631 >/opg/ I guess you got your answer.

>>631 >>/opg/ >Similar to /tf2g/ but with maybe less overt gaylust everyone there is so gay they troon out regularly, they play as ponies and fuck eachother until they decide they are the ponies.

On the topic of games, would it be alright to have just a general gaming thread like the pony gaming threads on /mlp/?
