How do I write without an account?

There are more bans here than I’ve seen in my entire life.

God, there are more bans here than I’ve ever seen in my entire life

@JP
They were, in fact a spambot. A very clever one, or perhaps a person in a spambot’s job.

@Ciaran
I have been wondering for a long time if TobyTapin is/was a well disguised spam bot. Their post in this thread is definitely spam, but nothing else they’ve posted (that I can see) appears to be.

@Mighty Aphrodite
It’s the link to the “coursework” and “essay” stuff above. It’s like candy to some bots. They see words like that and go nuts.

This image is another example of that - most of the spam in the comments is for knock-off leather jackets, because the description and tags mention leather jackets.

Geez, what’s with all the spambots lately?

@Newman134
True.

@williemmiller
but it does have some potential though.

@Newman134  
Possibly because it’s not well known?

@Background Pony #6BA7  
how about the EqG setting where equestrian artifacts and magic enter the human world every couple or so weeks?

@Background Pony #6BA7  
You don’t know what you’re talking about. Read the book, or read my essay, before you mention the name Fallout: Equestria.

@Background Pony #6BA7  
If your only goal is to have “ Ponies looking for odd artifacts while avoiding anomalies and monsters “, why use the STALKER setting in the first place?

@Background Pony #9CE1  
Which makes it better because the story of Fallout never fit MLP anyway. Stalker is a lot more open and doesn’t need a contrived story. Ponies looking for odd artifacts while avoiding anomalies and monsters is classic adventure. The writer could also use any combination of motifs from the original book, the movie and the games.

Because Stalker isn’t a story, it’s a generic modern military setting with “artifacts”.

 
I really Have to wonder why a Crossover universe between EqG and S.T.A.L.K.E.R never dawned upon Anyone? There’s already Fallout: Equestria so why not a, “S.T.A.L.K.E.R: Shadow of Canterlot”?
 
We could use the phenomena of Equestrian Magic and Magical items being dumped into the Human World to create the setting. Where Fallout Equestria uses Megaspells to create the wasteland, A Huge Cataclysmic discharge of Magic would create the EqG version of “The Zone”. Heck, it could even be the result of megaspell magic or a megaspell ending up in the Human world and going off in Canterlot City. Creating a magical Exclusion zone similar to Chernobyl and Fukushima’s exclusion zones. But with magic in place of radiation. Said magic would create The Anomalies said said Equestrian items serving as the Artifacts.
 
Like the Zone from the games, This version of the Zone would also be slowly expanding. The Mane 7, the holders of the Geodes of Harmony serving as this universe’s version of the Common Consciousness or C-Consciousness. Halting the zone’s expansion and being situated right at the being located in the Epicenter of the Zone: Canterlot Highschool.
 
As a result of the Discharge, Magic now freely flows into the Human world and Flora and Fauna from Equestria have now entered the Human world and radically alters the Ecosystem within it.
 
From Time to time, Large discharges of Equestrian magic would be released into the zone. Replenishing it’s artifacts and providing a constant supply of magic within the Zone. Said discharges resembling the Emissions or Blowouts from the games. Being this awesome spectacle to those in the zone and beyond. Being seen for miles.
 
It’s also meant to be the opposite of Fallout: Equestria’s Setting. Being overgrown and reclaimed by nature instead of a bleak wasteland and being in an exclusion zone instead of an entire post apocalyptic world.
 
As for the Location of the Zone, It’s in between the Border of Canada and the US and it’s uncomfortably close to Seattle and Vancouver.
