I think copyright laws need to be reformed anyway. For one, current fair use exemption law needs to be respected and followed. There's so many fair use parodies and commentary and whatnot on youtube that gets taken down that shouldn't. Secondly, as long as you've edited or changed material to be something different from what the original was, I believe that the laws should change to count that as fair use. It shouldn't matter if it might take away from your profit. Competition should reign king, not corporate copyright. Piracy is one thing, making variant works, remixes, games, parodies, etc is another. Besides. These don't take away from their money anyway! I'm angry at Hasbro. I'm not going to buy any more merchandise from them anymore, and if they keep this up, I'm going to start a boycott until they stop. I don't care if I have to spam it all over the internet I WILL get a boycott going.

I've already signed that petition. I hope it makes them reconsider.... So does anybody know why they're doing this? I mean it doesn't make sense. It wasn't hurting them financially. It was helping them. Seriously, I was gonna buy some blind bag ponies and stuff but now I have no respect for them and I won't. Heck why don't they just hire Mane 6 and sell the game? I would buy it. I just don't see the logic in doing this...

I never called you stupid. Maybe you need to calm down a bit. I said your post was dumb because you were going insane about it , and you were very mad during it. It didn't have much evidence to back it up.
Also just because a lot of people said it doesn't mean the people are repeating themselves. You are turning what could have been a decent conversation into a flame war so please calm down before this thread gets closed.

The fact is you keep coming back to ALMOST EVERYONE that disagrees with you and keep saying basically the same thing. If you have something new to say, then say it. That's great, but if you're just gonna say the same things over and over again, and being really rash about it, you come off as a jerk. You believe and assume that alicorns are OP and automatically very special and powerful. A LOT of people are believing and assuming that. Many have said they immortal or that they are gods. Your theories and thoughts on the matter COULD be right. So COULD mine. I just don't see why you have to be a bigot about it before the episode even airs. You come at people telling them they're wrong instead of just telling them what you believe, AND you do it to almost everyone over and over again. I admit I was a little harsh earlier, and it won't happen again, but it only happened at all because that's what you've been acting like this entire time. This thread is called, "What are your thoughts on Twilight becoming an Alicorn?" not ,"Argue about Twilight becoming an Alicorn?" This is a place to give your concerns, theories, and ideas about the possibilities of Twilight becoming an alicorn. (I don't see a need to capitalize alicorn btw.) Shouldn't we be saying things like: "I don't see a reason why it would be good for the show." or "I think if the change comes really subtly it could be good because it might make it easier for the Mane 6 to adventure together." or "I think they've had this in mind as an idea for the show from the beginning, seeing as how Celestia and Luna have to do with sunlight and moonlight, and Twilight's name is, well, Twilight." or "I think it was completely Hasbro's doing and was all about the money. They did that with Cadence and other things, too, so who's to say they're not being dumb greedy hogs now?" Things like that should be said with in an intelligent manner. Not:
"I'm going to be the actual mature one here , and not reply to this dumb post with insults.  >:/"
>Says no insults.
>Says you're the mature one and calls his post dumb.
That was hypocritical.

Replies that weren't towards you and explaining thoroughly why it's a bad idea and how you will leave the fandom if it's permanent. I do not know about the others but I got it that you do not like alicorns in general, the idea of Twi becoming an alicorn and messing with canon.
I dislike alicorns. So what? I find them incredibly O.P. Considering Twilight is already O.P enough because of her magic. This will ruin the character. Also who wouldn't hate messing with cannon? It's wrong.

Also have you ever heard of "If someone asks the same question give them that same answer"? If people would stop repeating the same boring denial thing I wouldn't have to repeat myself so much.

So you arbitrarily just dislike alicorns. You find them "O.P." I'm sorry but this isn't a freaking video game this a magical land of talking ponies. "This will ruin the character." What are you basing that on? "who wouldn't hate messing with canon? It's wrong." It's called character development. It's something that happens in a lot of shows. Doctor Who for instance. If I wanted to watch a show that got old and stale and was the same thing forever I'd watch the Simpsons.

So am I the only one that not only doesn't see why this will be bad, but thinks it's more likely to be good than bad?
They've planned this from AT LEAST as far back as when they were just starting to write this season's episodes, and likely before. Seriously though I think They planned this from as far back as the series premiere. Her name is Twilight, and they just happen to have Luna (moonlight) and Celestia (sunlight) as alicorn princesses???? Like it's some pure coincidence?? What's so bad about making her an alicorn anyway? People got upset with Cadence being an Alicorn but that didn't ruin anything. People got upset about Discord coming back and that turned out to be a pretty good episode, albeit a little rushed. People getting upset before they even see what's gonna happen is stupid. There's no evidence that suggests that this will change the format of the show a whole lot or that it will be bad. I'm hoping this means that the mane 6 will get to do a little more adventuring together starting next season. If you feel some reason to whine about this, this is the place to do it I guess, but quit going around the internet saying everywhere, "ALICORN TWILIGHT!!!!nOOOOO!!!1"

Also,

I thought the whole story checked out okay with what you guys are debating. Yeah I thought her friends should have believed her a little more but Cadence is a princess who nopony would ever dream of accusing of being evil. And you can't say anything bad about Shining Armour on this episode because he was being controlled by Chrysalis. I thought it was overall a decent episode, but had a couple of other flaws, being the beginning and close to the end. The beginning was just like, "Really???" because she never mentioned she had a brother before so why did she all of a sudden act like he'd been so amazing without first perhaps giving a reason why she never talks about him. My only other gripe was how the end (saving equestria) happened so fast. It's like they just ran out of time and so they had to make the ending (Cadence's love for Shining Armour magically saving equestria) too fast. But yeah overall it was a good episode.

My theme song is Psychopathic Party Animal by Dave! I'm not posting it because it might disturb somepony.

So my alternate theme song Is the Drumstep VIP of Kick Snare by Crissy Criss and Youngman.

The Retirement Home / Requests
2012 Dec 20, 00:52:10
I noticed that there's no topic for requests, and I thought there should be one.

So this topic is for requests. If you're looking for somepony to create a song, remix, or other sound, this is the topic to ask in.

I have a request of my own. I'd like to remix and produce music, but I don't really have software or skill for that yet. All I have audio-wise is Audacity, Virtual DJ, (Which I used to create the following remix) and Renoise. Renoise is professional software (even Venetian snares uses it!) but I found it to be really hard to use because it's a tracker (which messes up my thinking because it goes from top to bottom instead of left to right. I'm musically inclined and can play the piano proficiently, changing keys and styles, so I'd like to save up for a non-tracker based DAW, like FL- Studio.

In the meantime, can somepony remix Marmite? I've always loved the song, "Marmite," by Caspa, and I've especially loved the Doctor P remix. I really love drum step, and I really want someone to make a drumstep and/or ponified remix of that goes hardcore. Below is my feeble attempt at remixing it. Basically all I did was speed it up and mess with the pitch. It's mostly just an example of the tempo it should be at: ~170
Spoilered because there's a guy with a distorted voice that I think might be swearing at a couple parts but I can't understand it, so I don't know.
Spoiler: show


So anyway if you want to post a request, post it here, and if you want a challenge of something to create, look ,

Yay. I'll definitely be there.

Actually from the show itself?? Hmm... I'm pretty sure my favorite is This Day Aria. That's good. The first time I heard it was when I was watching it in the episode and it was so good. At first, when she said, "I could care less." I cringed and it almost ruined the song for me because you actually mean you couldn't care less. As if, "I care so little about this thing that I couldn't care any less about it." but then I realized that it fit her character to say something ignorant like that, and I liked it even more.

I like a lot of the show songs, although I'm more into remixes and fan songs. Wooden toaster is the bomb.

I love some of almost every genre, but If I had to pick a few favorites, they'd be ones that weren't on the poll, so I chose other.

First isn't exactly a genre, but it is a category of sorts and that's video game music. I was raised on 8 bit, 16 bit, starcraft, Pokemon, and metroid prime video game music. Video game music tends to be heavily electronic, which has influenced me.

Second is Breakcore, probably my very favorite. I absolutely LOVE Venetian Snares! Complex drum beats, time signatures, and heavy sampling underneath lots of effects make breakcore one of the most complex genres.

Third is speedcore. You either, "get it" or you don't with speedcore. I like it. Most don't. Not much to say there.

And fourth is pretty much anything with breakbeats or good drumming in it. This includes Drum and bass, Breakbeat, the aforementioned breakcore, and metal.
