Brony community on Virtue?

I've been seeing a lot {and I mean a lot} of MLP fans on Virtue, and I was wondering if there's anything sort of general we could get organized? There's at least a couple of themed supergroups and channels around, but there doesn't seem any sort of concerted initiative to bring the fans together. Any thoughts?

Is there a central channel that gets used the most?

Not that I know of - I've seen a couple {one cross-server, one Virtue-focused}, but none of them particularly active.

Could list some of the supergroups here.

*High-Hoof!* /")

I know someone who has a fairly new MLP Supergroup but I haven't moved any characters in there.

(If I remember >_>) I'll direct them to this post

Alright, need some input here - assuming I {and anyone else involved} can put in the awareness-raising effort needed, would it be better to focus on creating a brony supergroup or a global channel? The focus, to clarify, would be on bringing CoH bronies {and bronycurious} together, with actual roleplay being less integral to the idea, but still a nice bonus, should it happen to facilitate it.

A global channel has the advantage of being both cross-server and character-independent, thus allowing bronies who aren't playing a character who would otherwise have a reason to be in a brony supergroup, especially on a specific server, to still be aware of others being online and thus chat, team and otherwise interact. This is the option I'm leaning towards.

The advantages of focusing on a supergroup are essentially having a specific place to gather and possibly roleplay, but with the downside of being far more limited in scope of whom it can include, thus possibly putting a crimp in the whole all-inclusive premise.

What would your thoughts be? Did I miss any relevant factors?

Meh. Show started going downhill after Discord.


The off-beat space pirate...Capt. Stormrider (50+3 Elec/Storm Science Corruptor)
The mysterious Djinn...Emerald Dervish (50+1 DB/DA Magic Stalker)
The psychotic inventor...Dollmaster (50 Bot/FF Tech Mastermind)

Virtue Forever.

I'd say a channel, mostly because I don't plan on having any characters pony related.

I would suggest channel. As others have mentioned, I don't see much uptake for related chars (except maybe as short-lived jokes).


 

Posted

I'd also advocate a channel, my interest in a MLP-Themed character is minimal.

The whole point from my perspective would be to improve teaming options, so basically I would prefer consolidation of the pony related SGs.

Ponyville, Elements of Harmony, and Friendship is Magic are those I know of.

Is there any published information about Elements of Harmony? What they do, what the requirements are, etc.?

So far I've not been able to find anything...
