I need some new age pony education...it's been several years!

[BabyInBlue]

I'm so sorry every pony if my curiousity about Ditzy-Doo re-opened a wound....that was definately not my intentions, but I have learned quite a bit about the new generation from others' posts!

Rybett, I still don't know how to do that [you] thing!!! Aghh! Good thing I can preview my posts, you'd make fun of my efforts!

It's just [  you  ] with no spaces.

Asking questions is a great way to learn! What always got me were the different terms for the ponies.

Bling bag pony- smallest, they come in the mystery packs and are like two inches tall.

Styling pony also called playful pony- next largest. These are the ones you usually see in stores they are like 4 inches or something. So they are bigger than the bbs and have Brushable hair.

Fashion style pony-these are the larger ponies. Probably more like 8 inches tall.

Glimmer wings-size of a styling pony but with those big butterfly wings.

Shine bright- I think a tad smaller than the styling but these are the ones that light up.

I think.. I get confused sometimes.

Sorry to cause trouble...though I did sort of start to understand when I realized that the "drama" in drama pony meant something.
I used to only be an FiM fan, so when all the "D-gate" stuff was going on I was only viewing it from one side.
Also sorry for getting us off-topic...G4 is wonderful, though! I encourage you to check out the show, too. It's very well done.
And thanks for the filter tip! [You] deserves a pony hug!

It's just [  you  ] with no spaces.

So, I put my name in there? Or the person I'm directing it to? Do I put that in my signature then, or somewhere else.....I think I'm going to change my screen name to Dense-E-Doo Pony!

[Sarahlacewing]

no names at all you type exactly that without spaces.  So block thingy- the word you -block thingy and done.  It's because the code is designed so that when you look at it it displays your username.  Every time you look at it it will say your username, but when I look at it, it will say mine, when berylliumpone looks at it it will say berylliumpone. It just inserts whatever username is viewing it.

If you want you can quote my post and look at it that way. 

[you]

When you try to quote it, in the dialogue box you will see the code instead of a username because it's the coding that inserts the username.  Am I making sense?

AH HA! At last the mystery is solved. It freaks me out whenever I see my user name appear seemingly randomly. Even knowing what's making it happen... it's still weird, especially when it somehow happens in someone's signature. LOL

*giggles @ Henpatch*    the new generation  (especially some of the new pony terms etc) makes me feel 100 sometimes too!!!   
One thing I really love about G4 is that we have boys again!!

LOL reading this thread I keep seeing my name and getting confused!
