(guise, ai joost dernt kno wut weint wroung) SO, Welcome to the Commuffiny Derp again~ Hope you all enjoyed your Harley for the past two weeks, but it's my turn now; :I *Shoves Harley in the corner and pats her back* Okay, while she rests this week, I'll be givin' y'all the information. First off! Friendship Cannon Podcast will have an episode this week. Just a general update on news, info on Rainbow & Rooted, tracking the Equestrian Girls creepiness. Stuff. Same time 12PM EST Saturday! Come check us out, it's a bundle of fun. Don't forget about our current contests guys, they need some love! There's the Facebook challenge going on right now. You can check it out here! The winner gets their winning picture for our Facebook profile picture, and I will personally bake cookies that look like the picture, or your OC, and then proceed to eat them on video or camera. (I'm not joking, I want cookies.) Eight Star still has his contest up, remember to check that out RIGHT HERE It ends today, so get those submissions in guys! Also, don't forget about our KARAOKE NIGHT. THIS NIGHT IS FUN GUYS, DO IT, OR I'LL HOLD BLAZING CAPTIVE. You can find the thread on that OVER HERE Come and check it out, it's my favorite day! No shout-outs? Huh, that's disappointing. I'll give a shout-out to Tyro! He doesn't get much credit from the users who don't know that he has to keep up with some hard stuff here. He's been messing around with the site trying to make it better. Let's all give our furry fox a round of hooves! Eee Pee Are Pee Essie (EPRP Easy): Two rivaling researchers have sent the group to a nearby cavern to collect samples from slimes and prove each other wrong. Get ready to squash some jelly! (man, get me some of this jelly, it sounds good, sounds nice on a sammich...) EPRP Advanced is cancelled this week. With a new weekly day to be announced next week! Greenlight is still getting set up, so just wait for that guys, it should be coming soon ^-^; Well, that's all I have for this week's Commuffiny Derp! Hope you didn't die from boredom, cause Harlachu has a much more enthusiastic writing style than me.... Just gonna, go cry in that corner over there till it's my turn... *Takes Harley out of the corner and sits there instead* Till next time friends~ (Kind of a late CP btw, sorry)
from now on the community post shall be renamed the everypony commuffiny derp. anyway great post as usual [mention=2710]Fluttershy[/mention]
I mean no personal or professional offense to this to Flutteryshy or the EPStaff but... I sincerely think that Harley's CP's are better constructed and overall capture the spirit of the community post moreso than Fluttery's does. In my personal (Unbiased) opinion, I think it should just be [MENTION=539]HarleyCyn[/MENTION] writing these, both for the writing style... and general consistency. Having two people do this has the possibility of being more disorganized and less orderly and likeable. I'd consider letting Harley be the official CP writer for future reference. [MENTION=2710]Flutteryshy[/MENTION] is a great guy, but I think Harley's just... feels better and captures the spirit of it all much better. Thank you Fluttery. =)
I like Fluttery's CPs better since (s)he doesn't use bloody CENTERED TEXT. It feels like I'm reading a list of what's to come. Which is how it should be, right? Anyway, great job on focusing on who's writing the post instead of the post itself. Concentration at it's best everybody! /hypocrisy
Od's Bodkin. This is why I'm remaining not so active on the board. [MENTION=2710]Flutteryshy[/MENTION] and [MENTION=539]HarleyCyn[/MENTION] both do well on the community posts. Both have different styles, they give us information and each add their own flair. It's not a bloody contest. Of all the things to argue about this is not even an inkling of a thought about possibly one day ever attempting to maybe be even a shred of ever being on my list. Thanks to both of you and everyone on staff for doing what you do for us and the site. Carry on. /End of Line.
You just had to ask for me to not centered it and I would've non-centered it. It's what I did for Grey Knightmare when he mentioned it on one of the older Community Posts.
Basically what Dragonbait said. Can we just stop arguing about who writes these things and how they write them? The community post is what's important. Doesn't matter who writes it. :I [video=youtube;Qh2sWSVRrmo]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qh2sWSVRrmo[/video]
I feel that this post should be moved to Wednesday. See Wednesday is my first day off of work and is basically the start of my weekend. No offense to you Friday people, its just I think Wednesday would be a better day for this sorta thing.
I don't really mind who does the community posts, a bit of practice and useful feedback will help any one to improve. I'm just glad we have people willing to use there own time to do this at all. I do have a suggestion though, some formatting an colour would be nice. The unique picture each week is great but the rest of the post is very dull. I think some headings, some colour and formatting would go a long way to making the post not only look nicer but easier to read too. It wouldn't need to be anything extravagant, I've made my own example below.

Gotta say, I like the community posts produced by either pony. 'Sides, they both enjoy doing it, so I enjoy reading it from either hoof. Anyway, I've been having a few... technical difficulties lately with getting to the site from some locations... so this month's contest thread will be a little late.
That looks absolutely wonderful. I approve of this suggestion. Maybe prioritize stuff more, like News->Radio shows->Contests->EPRP->Misc. (e.g. shoutouts)?
Now this I like, constructive criticism with an example of the suggestion. I'll throw in with this too, just that simple change does make it more eye catching and readable.
I really really like this! I'll make sure to do this next time I write the CP. Thanks! yes, Prioritize. I've never been told to prioritize stuff, so I just did them by what I thought was most important. *glomps* Thanks frenzy :3
We all have our preferences I suppose. It's unfortunate that you're having problems with the site Eight. Hope they get fixed soon.
From and awkward discussion on who's Commuffiny Derps are better to constructive criticism and suggestions. This site just gets better every day. I love it!
I consider this thread redeemed! I feel if you're going to criticize something or someone, making it constructive is best. Before you post, take the time to think about what could be improved so you can provide examples for improvement. It doesn't help to just say, "I don't like how this is done" or "I don't like the way this person is doing this." That just comes across as negative and complaining. The thing you're concerned about can't be improved if you aren't willing to give advice on how to improve it. Just my two cents. Excellent job on the Commuffiny Derp, Fluttery. I look forward to your next just as much as I'm waiting for Harley's.
I like both of their community posts. Two (or even more) making the posts keeps it fresh. Keep up the good work.
