Off Topic / Re: IF Internet Neutrality Fails: Getting Rid of the Arena
« on: November 22, 2017, 09:47:50 PM »
For the last few months, people are getting responses from their congressman that stated to a harsh degree, "The FCC knows what you want and need."

Over the last twenty years, consumers have demanded, and the private sector has built, a free and open Internet, yet President Obama and the FCC set out to impose unnecessary constraints. FCC reclassification will result in a tightly controlled, highly regulated, and readily taxable Internet. As conceived by the Obama Administration, Net Neutrality is simply a solution in search of a problem, not a way to make the Internet "better" for us all.

Sure. Blame Obama that he kept big businesses from taking over our networks, severing our ties with friends and family and revoking our right to be connected with the world. Yeah. Obama TOTALLY is to blame for protecting the public's interest  :brow:

It's become a partisan issue, and once NN is pulled the only ones it will benefit are those we are handing our hard-earned dollars to.

Yes, I filled out petitions and things  :3

And as a blanketing response:
If these places have it their way, to have their website on a "plan" would probably mean that MLPA would have to pay the big companies to be part of those plans. That would mean that they will have to rely on member donations, or otherwise become pay-to-use so those fees can be paid. Likely, many smaller websites would kerpoof. It would be on the consumer to pay for the use of the site two-fold.

Yay.

Welcome to the Arena :lovey:

I just loved this "...and I cuss a little. I like to think of myself as a classy lady with the vernacular of a Marine."  I say this all the time about myself and my husband but I switch out marine for "tradie" as the aussies say!

Look forward to seeing you around the forum :party:

Haha! Yeah, It's not often that I have a potty mouth, but when it happens something stupid happened, let it be to me or because of me  ;P

Thank you so much!

I am so sorry to hear that you have been threw all of that! I think that you picked a very good hobby to get into! Ponies are so pretty and you cant help but smile when you look at them! :)   Welcome to the arena :)

Thank you. I appreciate the sentiment. I am on pins and needles to start! I am just waiting for all of my materials.

Welcome aboard! I'll warn you now: tinkering with little plastic horses is extremely addictive.

I'm still learning about customizing and this is a good community to start in.  Everyone's nice and very willing to help you out with tips and tricks.

Looks like it... I am looking at pictures that people have done and I'm drooling. The amount of creativity here is motivating.

I have collected so many junk ponies and cheapies to practice on, too. I'm giddy as a little girl on Saturday morning ready to watch cartoons, ha!

Welcome to the Arena! I'd love to see the customs you can make!!  :frolic:

Thanks so much! I am excited to start something new. I've always been into MLP so it will be nice to be more active with it.

Well, this is a completely new experience for me. Hello, nonetheless!

I was a Moderator of a fairly well-known site for about 10 years, and finally hired. They went through layoffs and I was someone who was affected. This was after losing my USMC veteran husband of over 9 years (had been together for 15 in total) to cancer.

Needless to say, I was looking for something "to do" to focus on and help me with healing, and I started falling in love with the idea of pony customization, which I have been looking for tips and tricks for. I decided to join this community since it seemed like a better fit for me than the other place I was at for a long time.

I am a rather crappy artist, classic gamer; have two wonderful meowing fluffy furballs in my life, one is almost 11 and the other just celebrated his 1st birthday; love collecting G4 ponies and gaming memorabilia, but I will jump on getting anything that has Legend of Zelda splattered all over it. I am a Dr Pepper fiend, coffee lover, chocolate hoarder.

...and I cuss a little. I like to think of myself as a classy lady with the vernacular of a Marine.

Thank you for welcoming me into your herd  :3
