Slapping some wings on a cat/fox doesn’t make it pony related….
 
Never heard of the cat/sheep head on a sphinx before. Human head on a lion’s body is the only sphinx type I know of irl. MLP sphinx is the pony head on a lion’s body though. If there are other variants irl.. are they still called a sphinx?
 
Pretty sure you are misusing the term self entitlement here. Not certain how I’m entitled to anything by saying this piece of art is simply a furry art piece and not an MLP art piece.
 
That’s fine if you own the character. Not certain how that changes anything though. Looking at the character’s tag I can see the bat pony version of her and that is fine. Although there’s also like 3 other OCs that share that name too. I seen one that was made like a MLP sphinx and that is fine. The rest of the ‘sphinx’ variants are just a fox/cat thing with wings. Which would be it’s own race at best or a modified animal really. Neither of which would be MLP. I think there was one piece that actually had her with front hooves in this ‘sphinx’ style… that is borderline but more acceptable considering she’s supposed to be half bat pony or something when in this image she doesn’t have any pony aspects at all.

@runner2  
She’s  
Shes’s literally half bat pony. Like, seriously.  
You seem to be someone stuck in their own reality with a lot of self entitlement. You really have no say on what is MLP related or not, not have any say on what can/can’t be posted to Derpi  
And for the record she’s Batpony/cat
 
Since you know so much you’d know that classical sphinx’s have lion’s bodies with heads of humans/cats/sheep. Lion’s being ‘big cats’. The character depicted is literally that. A sphinx.
 
I own the character btw.

You seem to be grasping at straws and putting word in my mouth here in an attempt to justify your claims.
 
‘X’-pony races are fine because they are clearly a pony in some way. In that case the race existing in MLP doesn’t matter. This image here is clearly of a wolf/fox/dog or whatever… not a pony in any way. That was what my comment on that was about… not universally on this site, but this image that is in question. It is claiming to be something it simply isn’t in any way.
 
You keep claiming this is a bat pony or some such when it clearly has no ties to such a claim at all. If you are referring to the tiny wings on it’s back then that is nothing to base this claim on and you know it. If that was the case then slapping a unicorn horn on a snake would mean that is now a unicorn/snake hybrid or something? At least according to you here. Like I said, grasping at straws here.
 
This entire site, aside from the humanized stuff, is furry. I know that already. But MLP is effectively a sub-group of furry in which it’s MLP related characters and races. Which is all that’s allowed on this site as per the rules. So this image, which I’m just gonna say is a fox with wings, in not MLP in any way. You say it’s batpony related… half so at that but it’s only the wings? I could just as easily say it’s a fox vampire/succubus/demon/dragon/normal bat hybrid to the same effect here.
 
Your whole argument that this fox is a pony hybrid thing is very shallow at best here. Wings are just wings and could be anything as I mentioned above here. It’s still a fox and thus still a furry and non-MLP character in this picture.

@runner2
 

 
I never said I saw her as a sphinx. A real sphinx isn’t in the show, it’s just a pony-stylized sphinx.
 
I said she’s pony-related, that she’s half batpony.
 

 
So:
 
Tatzlponies, robot ponies, plane ponies, shark ponies, eldritch abomination ponies, dragon ponies etc… they should all be erased from the site because they’re not in the show? Because they aren’t (the way you see it) MLP-related either, they’re definitely not ‘a race from MLP’ and could therefore go into your self-categorized ‘furry artwork’.
 

 
Okay, again, she’s half batpony. What’s the dealbreaker here?
 

 
Feral and anthro depictions of MLP characters are all furry artwork my guy. Furry characters are anthro or feral creatures given human traits (the ability to talk, think for themselves, sentience and sapience etc) so sure, you’re right on half of that, but this is certainly MLP-related artwork given her batpony trait(s)!

@Cold Blight
 
So you are saying that it’s alright to have furry art of characters on here as long as they started off as a pony first? Because I’m pretty sure that’s not how it works at all.
 
If you see this image as a sphinx, then you probably don’t know what a sphinx is. It’s certainly not some wolf/dog/fox/thing with wings if that’s what you think though. So you can’t claim this image here is MLP related when it’s not even a race from MLP.
 
Not certain what you are talking about with the bias thing here. This art is art of a furry, non-pony, character. If you see it otherwise then that’s a personal problem on you.

@runner2
 
Crescent is pony of some form, she’s half batpony. She’s pony-related and AFAIK only associates with other pony-related characters. Just because you see it differently doesn’t mean it’s not pony-related, and after a brisk walk through your comments posted on here it looks like you’re just being nitpicky wherever you go.
 
Maybe worry less about OCs unless it’s entirely unrelated to My Little Pony on Derpibooru? Just because she doesn’t fit your prerequisite of a/canon sphinx character(s) from the show doesn’t mean she’s unrelated to pony.
 
 
@runner2  

 
You are not a moderator, and no moderators have made edits to the tags or image since it was uploaded and frequently commented on a day ago. Your bias is not site rule.

@Beardie
 
You do know what a sphinx is, right? Because what you have here is closer to a wolf or fox then a lion to begin with. Not to mention the MLP sphinx has a pony head and the irl Egyptian one has a human head, so that’s wrong too.
 
With how you worded that it makes it seem like you are just trying to test the boundaries of what is counted as MLP content and what is simply furry content that is not related to MLP at all. If you wanna do furry art then go for it… but you can’t post it on this site.
 
With much of the humanized stuff it probably could be removed if it clearly isn’t MLP related. While there is some humanized pictures that are clearly based on canon characters…. many of the OC ones you can’t really tell on.
 
With many OCs though they are ponies of some form, so they are fine. Griffons, kirins, hippogriffs, or changeling OCs are also acceptable as well. Anything outside of that starts going toward simply being a furry OC.
 
Regardless though. This is a furry art piece and not MLP. Even if you wish to believe differently it makes no difference.

@runner2  
Cus Im tired of hearing Bias opinions when people are trying to be original while still being in the pony fandom. because by that logic they could remove half of the humanized stuff on derpibooru, a good chunk of the oc tags. and a good chunk of the art. Its kinda just a loose word argument that doesn’t mean anything?

@Beardie
 
If you didn’t care then why reply? :P
 
…unless you know it’s true? :3

@runner2  
Cool story bruh

That looks closer to a wolf or fox then a sphinx. It always confuses me why pony/derpibooru allow this style when it is effectively a furry with no MLP ties. The irl sphinx is a lion’s body with a human head as seen in Egypt. The MLP sphinx is the lion body with a pony head. When these OC’s are effectively just a lion OC but being called a MLP sphinx it just makes no sense to me.
 
In this case though it’s just a fox/wolf/dog or something… not a sphinx in any way.

She is a little pussycat <3

Crescent seems to be thinking, “Wait, what did you say about me?”
