Return to The Herd (MLP: FIM Revived Thread)

[Factor She/Her]

From the original Herd:

Spoiler

"So, maybe you heard about it from a friend and decided to check it out.

Maybe you read about it's themes of love and tolerance and got interested. Maybe you just saw some of the thousands of pieces of fan art based on it, and you got to wondering how a kids show- a kids show for girls!- could possibly get that large an audience, particularly an adult audience.

 

So, you sit down, at your television screen or your computer, and find an episode; one of the ones everyone says is great, since if you're going to judge it, might as well give it a fair shot, right? And you watch it and... huh. Actually, that wasn't too bad. Maybe those guys have a point.

 

So you watch the next episode. Then the next. And maybe you check out some stuff people have written about it... and before you know it, you're a fan of ponies. And you realize there is no escape. There is only Pinkie Pie."

-Quiver

Quiver is far better at creating topics than  I am, so let's leave it at that.

The Herd went dormant. Friendship is Magic is finished. And we have to deal with the trashy new MLP.

But that won't stop us...

I summon a God Beyond, the Phenomenal Pug-lover, Princess @TwiLyghtSansSparkles!

I'll ateemps to bring all the way over from Portugal, the Mane Mod, @Kaymyth!

Not just your average Joe, because there's no E, but instead a bush, @Jo and the Bush!

And I hope you'll help me find the others who have gone dormant.

But there are more!

Of course, I summon the one who convinced me, @Usseewa!

And I'll summon @Ascended Grubberfly to persistently annoy him into watching the show!

Let The Herd rise again...

I'm trying to ferret out every brony actively or semi-actively on the Shard to get this moving, and your Model UN Equestria came up.

Oh, ok!

Do you know any other active Sharders who watch it? I need to hunt down find all of them.

Funny, I was just thinking about this show the other day. Guess the Herd has a Force and I sensed a disturbance.

 You replied!

Yes, it does! I think. You're the expert, at least here.

I know you're not very online anymore, but you are a legend and close enough to online that i pinged you...

Hopefully i can get this thread to work...
