Welcome again, Everypony, to another Community Post! Lately there have been some things going on that the staff (And myself personally, as well) think need to be addressed. But first order of business, as usual: Las Pegasus is doing another broadcast at 10 PM GMT for Anno. This is the last episode in the series for this, so be sure to hop in and do what you do best! EPRP has, yet again, two new scenarios for you all. Easy: Princess Cadance herself has enlisted a group of able bodies to investigate the sudden appearance of wight-summoning talismans all over the frozen north, directing hordes at the Crystal Kingdom. Advanced: One part magic, one part weird science. What will happen to the party when they get sucked into another dimension inside of a dimension? Tune in to find out... Yet again, at 10 PM GMT (6PM Eastern Time) Now onto the part none of us really wanted to get into, but... well, we kinda have to. Lately, people have been going on the EPN Chat to do Clop RP there. As most of you (Hopefully) know, this is a huge, no no. Zephyr made an Announcement about it earlier this week, which I think you should all have a look at. This is serious stuff. Most of us don't want this to become a clop site here. We try to keep this place away from that for a reason; so everyone can enjoy their time here. And no, we're not going to implement a 'TRIPLE X SNAPSHOT ADULT ONLY XOXO' section on the site... so don't ask for it. As a precautionary measure, I have revived the No Clop Policy thread in Site Discussion. Feel free to check that out as well. It's very important. If you have any questions about this, please PM any moderator. Also, on a lesser note: The staff have decided to get rid of forum applications. Most of the time they were uh... well, less than par. So to speak. From now on, we're going to be scouting for Staff Members. Which also means we're going to be poking around and seeing who wants to be staff and whatnot. So if you get a PM asking if you're interested, you're doing something right. Please, don't act all nice in hopes for a mod position. Just be yourself, and we'll likely consider you. Also, there is another issue recently brought up that I feel deserves a bit of attention. Lately, (Read, past 6 or 7 months) people have been doing things like copy/pasting introduction posts to new members in their introduction threads. No, it's not against the rules, and no, we aren't going to force you to. But That one unique message instead of the generic 'Welcome to the Forums' message that you put for the past 40 or so new members is enough to make that individual feel unique and welcome. Perhaps you can find it in yourselves to start coming up with unique and fun welcome posts for these users? I'm sure they would appreciate it, as would I. That's about it, so I'll catch you all next week. (Also, wish a happy birthday to SoulEmber, or rather, Lightning Mustang, since it's his birthday on the 4th and he won't be around for it!)
*Resurrects thread* *Thread only has OP and is locked* Not quite sure that counts, Flufflepuff. :derpe: All of my happy birthdays to SoulEmber! Have some pixels! [pixelspixelspixelspixelspixels]
WHUT?! MOOSIE WON'T BE AROUND FOR ME TO SAY HAPPY BIRTHDAY ON HIS ACTUAL CAKE-IS-A-LIE DAY?! This makes Harlz a sad Harlz BUT NONE THE LESS. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOOSIE-MC-MOOSER-SON! 8D Also. Bad clop RPs. None of that. Shame on joo. *rolls around*
Thanks for the community post Mateus, the rules should really be followed when it comes to that certain topic. >.< Also liking the new avatar, although I'm holding out for Stanley to be chosen next. HAPPY BIRTHDAY SOUL!
No clopping? What if I use coconuts? [video=youtube_share;L9nXfffeAIU]http://youtu.be/L9nXfffeAIU[/video]
If anything we should create a seperate website where all clop fics and clop RPs are allowed and call it something like EveryponyAfterDark or something like that
Yea I know but we might as well make a website like that so if people try to post clop related stuff here we then redirect people to the website WE made for them
Or... no. How about no? Maybe no... Perhaps... no. The reasoning; We do not ever want to be associated to allow such things.
People should already know where to go for that sort of stuff. We simply won't relate our website in any way to that kind of material. The point is we're running a website that's suitable for ages 13 and above and we like to keep it that way. If we link in any way to an adult website, we'd have to set our standard to 18+ and we won't do that.
You know how many active users we'd lose if we introduced clop and made it 18+? Probably like, 80% So it's not good :I Also, headhunting for mods now? I can stop having to worry about my application and stop editing it
Yeah, pretty sure the amount of people on the site who are pro-clop are outnumbered by those who would rather not see it. Not to mention we also have a lot of younger members who would then be excluded if we had to raise the age limit to 18+ because we're affiliated with a clop site, whether it's ours or another. Then they would have to lie about their age to get on, and then the potential for lawsuits happen. TL;DR We'd like to never be associated with clop, ever. Please help us maintain this. Thank you.
<removed> But in all serious, No. I don't ever want see to Clopping or R34 Material on this site. I like clean places like this. I never understood clopping and why it has to be come but almost every fandom will have something like this in theirs.
Lel, sometimes clopping rp happens because people are joking... (Unless they are really weird) .-. That's cool though. Keep it clean, but not too clean where even the slightest joke gets slapped.
