Ask the mods anything

Do you have a fanfic headcanon/idea of what Fancy Pants’ job/profession could be?
 
While being a secret agent

@Marx
 
I headcanon he’s some kind of minister or mayor.

@Marx  
A pimp considering he has Fleur by his side 24/7.

@Mildgyth  
Oh he certainly is a big time noblepony, I like picturing Fleur as someone who has great respect for the princesses and such, like the type that believes in the monarchy above all things.

@ArmadilloEater  
you ever hear about the german, french, and american soldier who found a magic lamp during world war ii? tired and fatigued of the fighting, the killing, the bloodshed, they agreed to a temporary cease-fire and decided to share it.
 
out popped the genie. “there’s three of you and three wishes, so you each get one!”
 
the german steps forward. “i am so sick of the fighting”, he says, “i wish the fighting was over in france and me and all the germans were back home with our families.”
 
“done,” says the genie, and the german soldier vanishes.
 
the american steps forward. “genie, that kraut had a great idea,” he says. “i wish the fighting was over in all of europe and me and all the allies were back home with our families.”
 
“done,” says the genie, and the american soldier vanishes.
 
finally the french soldier steps forward. “so all the germans, and all the americans are gone from france? i’ll have a coke.”

@DanielTepesKraus  
Hue, sounds accurate, ’cept for the coke. No self-respecting Frenchman would sully his wine-lathered tastebuds with such horrid american swirl.

Are moms girls?

@Cyan Lightning  
I saw it. :^)

@rdibp
 
Depends on what definition of girl you’re using: girl as in, any woman or as in, a child.
 
If 1: Yes.
 
If 2: Only on seriously precocious pregnancies.

Why you leave @ArmadilloEater

So, article 13 is going to be voted on again in a week. What do?

How do I get rid of filters

@Yeetyeetfeet
 
Choose one here
 
And you can’t really have no filters, but if you don’t wanna spoiler or hide anything, you choose “Everything”.

Due to a “debate” regarding a negative comment from my side regarding a moderator.
 
Are moderators/administrators, when they comment privately on this page, normal users or something “better” than the rest of the community? It is a legitimate neutral question. I’ve become curious.

@DarkObsidian  
We’re just dudes and dudettes enjoying the site like everyone else. None of us are really “Better”, we just have some brooms to sweep out the bad stuff.
 
Usually if we’re commenting “As a mod” we try to make it obvious. But text doesn’t get intent off very well. Which is why we will sometimes just comment anonymously or have a normal non-staff account for general browsing. Just so people don’t get the wrong idea from the staff banner.

@Milo (GERMAN)  
Sometimes you need to step away from something you love lest it drive you insane.

@Zeb
 
I apologize for asking. It arose from a situation and I recognize the character is questionable.

Is it ok to advertise my own thread in other threads, those that do have a similar destination? Example - my rp thread in looking for rp partners thread.

Do you earn a badge for posting like 1000 posts?

@ApplejackFan204  
Unfortunately, no, we do not.
 
The closest thing to this would be the ‘Thread Starter’ badge:  
→ Start a thread that reaches 100 pages of replies.

@Princess Trixie vi Equestria  
Okay. How do I start one?

@Beyondy Supreme  
Spamming advertisements in unrelated threads will get you banned.
 
@ApplejackFan204  
You basically have to just have an idea for a thread that will generate a lot of conversation, and get lucky with it.

@Joey  
If I may pitch in a legitimate suggestion, role-playing tends to be a very active form of discussion in forum threads, so if you create an appealing roleplay you might get it.

@Zaknel  
I’ve created one. I doubt people know it exists. I want to advertise it on looking for RP partners thread. Is it relatable to thread’s meaning?
