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

From Rarity to Twilight!



For those that wish to know the story behind it, be warned, it is a dark and sad one.

You know about that guy who made that 24 mile high sky dive yesterday. Pretty awesome on it's own. But here's the part they kept from the press.

^ I gotta say, when I heard the news that a skydiver had broken the sound barrier, the first thing I thought of was the Sonic Rainboom. :p Glad to see I wasn't alone. :lol

Heh, it looks like Rainbow Dash may have some competition when it comes to sheer speed.

Great, now I have a hilarious fic idea (Equestria's an isolated country on Earth) where Felix's supersonic dive goes way off course and lands him in Equestria. There, shenanigans ensue because he's a supersonic alien who just fell from the skies at mach 1.24. And at the end, the ponies get introduced to Human aviation.

---------------

Of course, if  space diving becomes a reality, Dash will be facing some real competition. According to some calculations I found, space divers reach a top speed of ~Mach 3 (2,500 mph).

Speculation time:

According to the HUB's latest facebook post, there is a major pony announcement coming tomorrow.  What do you think is coming?

I hope it's a season 3 premiere date, but you never know.

Why does Twilight have wings? Did Luna really give Twilight her powers?

Apparently Furbies are popular again. I have no idea why. They always kind of disturbed me.

Here's a couple more images from the Season 3 premier episode. Looks like Shining Armor is making a return appearance. I'm guessing Princess Cadance will be in it as well.

Fanmade Episode

Just thought I'd post this. It's alright, but nothing great.

Yeah it could use some work, but I liked it a bit.

I have to admit, that fanmade episode was well put together. The animation was solid, although the voiceover could use just a bit of work. But overall extremely entertaining for a fan based story.

They are actually the new types of Furby.  Basically, a remake to get them popular again.  To be honest, I don't like the new kinds.

As for the new episode, all I have to say is that November 10th can't come soon enough. :)
