A tornado warning and an exploding sky….Just another typical day in Nebraska.

-Equestria not encompassing the entirety of the world (Maretonian delegates)
-Magic existing in all races in one form or another
-Tartarus housing villains of old times, and that they can escape
-Strong hintings towards Fluttercord and Dislestia
-etc.

Nobody’s talking because it’s spoilers, dear.

And that is why the spoilers tags exist

I’m surprised no one is talking about seeing the inside of Tartarus.  Can we get a Villains Anonymous going on the stone spires in there?

My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, a show for little girls with HARDCORE DBZ STYLE BATTLES!!

Choosing tumblrpon blogs to follow and not follow is something of a challenging and sometimes risky business! And sometimes, you have to use a little social grace to pick and choose. But for the most part, I have some criteria for who I choose and do not choose, and it’s often related.

Reasons I’ll follow a blog:

• Immediate characterization. If I can’t tell the personality of your character within a couple of posts, I don’t typically follow.
• Advanced or unique art. Unfortunately I am very visually oriented. I do typically choose art blogs over writing blogs, and typically blogs that have a recognizable style. Not necessarily canon, but recognizable.
• A niche premise. Blogs like Rusty’s Nail’s, whose main focus is creating alcoholic drinks for ponies, very easily catch my attention. There’s a lot of creativity that goes into blogs like these, and I appreciate the work that goes into them. Especially because they have to stand alone amongst a tidal wave of art and writing blogs.
• Grammar. I am in no way a grammar nazi, as anyone who follows me knows. However, if I am reading a writing blog, I expect care to be put into the writing—as care would be put into a drawing.
• Older characters older characters older characters immediate follow
• Good storyline is a given.

Reasons I will not follow a blog:

• Lack of personality. See the first line in the above section.
• Grimdark. I will sometimes make exceptions, but on the whole, I avoid grimdark.
• Asshole protagonists. There are times and places for them, but on the whole I’m tired of the trope and prefer not to see it.
• Porn blogs. I enjoy porn, I watch it. I prefer not to see it on my dashboard though.
• Angst angst angst
• Autoplayers. I may still follow you if you have one but I ain’t goin’ to your userpage.

There ya go. There’s a few other reasons I will or won’t follow a blog, but these are my usual guidelines!

But these are pretty much all the guidelines I follow, too!

Another big one for me is excessive roleplay / unrelated reposts. I literally look through my entire dash on AKS and look at everyone’s posts, so I can’t have tons of random stuff clogging up my dash.

*a moment of silence for the beautiful ask blogs that I want to follow but they post random stuff that isn’t art like 80% of the time sob sob*

this is all accurate for me too! especially the thing wiggles said about excessive reblogs. ive seen plenty of blogs that i would love to follow, but i want to follow for the art/story, not your reblogs and mod posts. thats what a mod blog is for.

the only thing i disagree with is the grimdark one, because i love grimdark stuff, and theres kind of a lack of good grimdark blogs lately. 

I tend to follow similar guidelines, albeit a little more leniently.  Generally if it’s a drawn ask blog, I like the style and the premise is well established then I’ll give it a follow.  This goes doubly for the blogs that follow Papi.
