General Tag Discussion

@zippysqrl  
it’s not a shipname? i just thought the tags would be better aliased since they’re basically the same tag.

why isn’t power ponies an episode tag? the description seems to imply it’s for the episode.

@TempestShadow  
It seems that tag is meant for the actual super-hero characters in general. Whether the mane six as the power ponies, or the fictional fictional characters from the in-show comic, or real world comic.
 
The episode tag is: Power Ponies (episode)
 
I guess it’s used for finding characters in those costumes or style, even when not involved with the Power Ponies episode itself. Like when the Equestria Girls short had them:

Is “twistarlight” really necessary?
 
Seems like a mouthful… Why not just “twistar” or something?
 
Idk… Just my opinion, I guess

@Rainboom Dash  
Maybe it’s so that it’s less confuseable with Twilight ships with other characters that have “star” in their names.

Um… what would be the purpose if the greedloft tag? It seems one of the more objective one’s out there, and while a lot of the earlier images made some sense, I just see it come up on images of the game’s offers.

I’m not sure how this is vore.  

This is just Suggestive, right?  

@Meanlucario  
I’m not sure how this is vore  
bitch dun ate somebody yo

@TexasUberAlles  
But I thought that vore is associated with swallowing someone whole, not just eating them.

@Meanlucario  

Not all sick shit has to be overtly sexual.

@Meanlucario
 

Not sure, should vectorization be tagged as edit? Like >>1589087

@Meanlucario  
As pointed out, it’s a very broad category of things.  
Specifically in this case, hard vore. *tags*

You think there should be a tag or an indicator on various Webm images telling people whether or not there is audio?

@SeraphimDawn  
You mean like No sound?

@Rainboom Dash  
What about a “Has audio” tag?  
Or something a little bit more visible like a colour coded webm label on top of thumbnails.

@SeraphimDawn  
You mean like Webm AND NOT no sound?

@SeraphimDawn  
sound

@Background Pony #EC55  
Oh :o
 
 
@SeraphimDawn  
Was going to say you could use complex filters if you wanted to filter it out but it seems there is a tag

@Binkyt11  

 
I would suggest because said offers are usually good examples of the company’s blatant greed. I.e. “If you act NOW you can buy this digital item for only three installments of $49.99!”

@Vinyl Fluff  
Some of the earlier ones were like that, but the last… 5-6 were in between $6-$10.

@Binkyt11  
That’s still not cheap… Lol
 
I would say a dollar or two a piece would be a reasonable amount… A lot of times it’s 10-20 dollars a piece

@Rainboom Dash  
I think, if I were able to buy a meal at a fast food restaurant for the price of your in-game item, that’s not a “microtransaction.” That’s just a straight up transaction.

@Binkyt11  

 
That’s still quite high for what you get. This isn’t a AAA-title on PC or console. It’s a mobile game aimed at kids. A game that’s already exploitative and designed to suck money. A few years ago someone did the math on what it would cost to obtain all the content (i.e. all the ponies and such.) And it was something like $2000+.
 
Now keep in mind, this game is aimed at kids. And specifically kids who have parents with deep pockets. And that’s where the Greedloft tag comes from.
 
And MLP isn’t the only franchise they’ve done with this. Gameloft is notorious for their shady practices.
