    That way, I could connect with more bronies out in cyberspace, but I could also do other stuff, like have more of an involvement with other characters out there and basically be able to "become" my character. Kinda like roleplaying, but more like adopting his lifestyle. :p

    Does that sound like a good idea or is that stretching it too far? xD

    I personally wouldn't do it, only because Facebook is very strict when it comes to putting up fake information. I know that Facebook has been disabling accounts that have pony names, so it's possible that if you do create an account for your OC, it'll just end up disabled.

    Facebook is srs bsns.

    Of course, you're free to do whatever you want, but I'm letting you know in advance so you're not surprised if they disable the account.

    meh, I've been using fake names for years almost. Ever since a certain event happened which left me scared to use my real identity. In fact, as we speak my current facebook name is "Buck Off". xP

    If you can keep it fun and interesting for yourself, do it. I'm not much of a role player.

    Or you could just go with Flankbook which was created for that very purpose and not have to worry about it being taken down

    Flankbook is always down, from what I heard...
    When I did try to enter it, it was down as well. :derpe:
    But yeah, Flankbook>Facebook.
    Facebook, is annoying. Sadly, too popular to neglect though. :p
