    The obvious first thing to decide when creating a character is whether they will be male or female.
    Thus, I leave it to all of you to make that decision.

    I would like a mare just because I think it's a tad bit easier to make mare look right.

    You are missing the point.

    This is supposed to represent the website.

    Who cares if it takes 3 years to design because its male, if a female one would only take a week.
    It's apppearance isn't supposed to be "cute."
    Would you describe this site as cute? I certainly wouldn't.

    It's supposed to represent the website.
    The roleplay section, which is 90% badassery, action, and violence.
    The games, and chat, where we act like 5 year olds, joking around with each other, and talking about everything serious and ridiculous.
    We are welcoming and caring, but also violent, crude, and more often than not, based on things often associated with males.

    Wintermute said it best.
    It's in our best interest.

    Androgynous Male. That's my vote.

    Or female, if we want Autobrony to have a faithful companion. I'm sure he gets lonely.


    Unless he's gay.

    Ugh, the thought process behind this is massive.

    I'll stick with Androgynous male.

    I'll prefer female. But an androgynous hybrid

    Why not have 2 mascots, one male and one female?
    Do we even need a mascot? We already have members depicted in a fancy artwork at the top of the Everypony Spring layout, which could use an update sometime.

    I suppose. The banner could need an update

    But still, I think mascots would be more appropriate. Like how Galacon had Canni Soda as it's mascot. I thought the character was clever, funny and cute. I think that we could that that approach with the female character, but hell. Diversity always rocks.

    I honestly felt the site would be more feminine than masculine if did have an avatar of some sort.

    Went with stallion. I'd find a mare mascot to be far too typical, personally...after all, 95% of the show focuses on mares, so I get more than my fill of 'em on a daily basis. If the show won't let the stallionfolk shine a bit, they might as well get some representation here.

    Call me weird but when I saw this earlier I wanted the mascot to be a hybrid between Eight_Star and Tyro the Fox. Half pone, Half fox.
    Byt now honestly I think a female madcot would be cute.

    This was my thought process as well. Male for diversity. :L

    I agree.

    I don't think the site should be represented by a single gender. It would seem unfair.
