    [6:26:54 PM] Foxytail: I've been sent a complaint about the opinion of clop thread. I think it's time we kill it now

    [6:27:43 PM] Yeti: well, I htink it served it purpouse long time ago
    [6:28:05 PM] Yeti: we had several threads on topic before anyway
    [6:28:45 PM] Foxytail: Thank you
    [6:28:47 PM] Saikyo: And Foxy, what was the complaint about?
    [6:29:59 PM] Foxytail: It was about how we don't allow any clop pictures or video but we allow for detailed discussion about it. I think that's a fair point and we should probably clamp down on that. Technically we allow discussion but we've never really been clear where to draw the line. I think it's time we did.

    And what was detailed about it?

    Panties? I brought that up. Was that to far. Then tell me, don't close the thread. What made it an issue? I still don't see it.

    You aren't thinking hard enough.

    It was 3 things.

    NSFW discussion.

    A dupe thread (Of a LOCKED thread that started an argument!)

    And a source of tension. That's all you need.

    I don't think it was the details of what was actually posted. But it's already been said by other users that they do not like clop. And they don't want to see clop, or anything to do with clop ie: the thread. Sure they don't have to go in it, but it's now stuck at the top of the Community Discussion forum where they'll see the title. Some people hate clop in any form, or even the mentioning of it. Why take away from their enjoyment of the forum with a topic that in all honesty, really didn't matter to the community all that much?

    There shouldn't be a reason why ANYONE should feel uncomfortable with coming to this site.

    This was my point. You can be totalitarian and close threads when it is deemed to, but don't be surprised when discussions of this sort then come up as a result. I just take issue with going to the final solution before using other less abrasive alternatives to steer the discussion away from what pushed it over the edge of being acceptable.

    Pretty much this.

    Now now, boys and girls, let us take this discussion in private if everyone is going to be salty about it. Any more posts about this argument can, and will, be deleted.

    Take it privately and address the mods about it if you have a problem!

    I agree, it makes me wince whenever I look at it.

    Anyhow, as a parting gift I shall attempt a subject change. :D Yay!

    So I might be taking OC requests soon. And/Or doing an "Ask Legion" thread. I hope I don't decide to do both, but I apparently have no influence over what my decisions regarding what stuff I take on to draw. >.>

    Anyhow, Goodnight everypony! ^^

    Edit: Wow, triple ninja. I am slooooow.

    Even though I may not agree with closing that thread, it is not a big deal to me. It was starting to derail anyway.

    But remember, we are bronies, we love and tolerate and watch ponies, that is what is important.:smile:

    Edit. Sorry, did not see the latest posts before posting this:DFH:.

    So anyway, rained yesterday, like that, reminds me of Rainbow Dash.:omg:

    Personally, I don't think it was necessary to close the thread entirely, but I fully understand the reasoning behind the decision and respect it.

    I was talking about the people who complained about the thread, which resulted in it getting locked. I wasn't directly talking about you.

    But yes, the argument has ended, I just wanted to point out my views on it.
