The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

You're welcome. Hey, I have an inquiry to make.
In "Bird on a Hoof", do you think Celestia knew that Fluttershy was going to birdnap Philomena and then sat back and watched the chaos unfold for the fun of it? DO you think she's cruel enough to pull something like that?

She is an immortal.  She may see that as a small thing & a way to pass the time and have some fun.   Being immortal she may not see things in the same way that non immortals do.

Alright, cut the crap. Does anyone here really think Celestia is a cruel being?
She only manipulations in the entire series were at the beginning in bringing the Elements of Harmony together, but in doing so, she freed her sister from her own madness, got her student out of the library and amongst real friends for the first time in her life, and ended an ongoing threat to the ponies of Equestria all in a single night and made the lives of all involved better. These are not the actions of a wicked being.
Seriously, this is along the same lines of something Gandalf would pull, yet Tolkien fans don't go around pushing the idea that h'e s some kind of cruel entity.

Sorry if I came on too strong, it's just that I like Celestia, yet I can't go anywhere in the fandom without the idea that she's some kind of sadist or Tyrant creeping into the discussion. I'm seriously just growing very tired of it, so if everyone was just kidding, I'm sorry.

I never said she was I just think that sometimes she pulls a prank to show that even though she's ruler of Equestria she is still like everypony in equestria.

I see, though the whole situation with Philomena the Phoenix would be more of an emotional attack on Fluttershy than a mere prank had it been what she had in mind fromt he start.

Celestia is NOT a cruel pony.  Everyone just misunderstands her intentions. :)

That is no more apparent than in the episode in question given even the ponies' reactions to her.

I'm not 100% sure what her intentions were with that episode.  However, I give that little thought due to one thing that gets under my skin far more.

Come on!  If you want to make a good episode that involves death, don't cheapen it out like that. :)

Yeah, I'm more upset at the writers there than anything else.  You don't mess with death, bottom line. :)

I think she likes to have some fun so she pulls a few pranks on the other ponies. Hey even royalty needs to have some fun.
