>>382634Hold out hope that compilations and screencaps will emerge in time. There were plenty of indicators that alot of individuals and factions came out to play, and the likelihood that someone will have made such a record is pretty good.
The short version is that when /mlp/ was killed - like Milton from the Office Space - they said "Okay, but that's the last straw".
And basically from that point on every board that remained (no matter how many remained, you can do the proportionate math) had anywhere from 3-30 pony threads at a given moment (and those minimal outliers were like s4s who didn't say a peep about ponies). Across the board, wall to wall, ponies. That was at about 7a central standard time. Regular ponies. Pinkie Pie. I like Spike. IWTCIRD, and that's just the easy examples. And that's to say nothing of the horsepussy, which was,... well it wasn't the greatest showing tbh, but its way more than you're likely to see all year otherwise.
Fun fact, 4chan classifies horsepussy as "furry or anthropomorphic pornography"..
But yes, innumerable keks were had that day, and many a warm feeling spread throughout the chaotic landscape that was 4chan.
If that was how /mlpol/ originally came to be, it wouldn't have worked; /mlpol/ worked because it was JUST /pol/ and /mlp/ while getting shit on by the rest of 4chan. And while undoubtedly unintended, that's the consequential lesson of this April 1st when contrasted with '17; it's like in Squid game, or any of those crazy japanese anime/manga/tv series (the manga of the one that starts with daruma san is the best, but you have to read the continuation series after they switch publisher) when you are faced with a choice of 'survival' (in this case posting) when your board is no more, where do you go? Where do you go to post? What boards remain that you will feel comfortable taking refuge in? How obnoxious will you be? How polite and cordial? Will you be fren or will you be bullied?
This of course was nothing. Not only did /mlpol/ have a bunker in /trash/ before this site occurred, but .
But, 8 years+ in/around Mlpol,... I did rip and tear, and I identified a number of other distinct posters doing likewise. With ponies, so it was humiliation, not brutality.
