This is the general thread for the alternative fan sites of the My Little Pony fandom. Discussion, development suggestions, and criticisms are all welcome here.

>Why alternate boorus?
Recent changes to Derpibooru has put its place as the premier location for pony fan art into question. So several new boorus have sprung up to provide alternatives. Many of the altbooru owners post in thread and listen to questions and comments from anons. Note that this is NOT the Derpibooru drama general. Please keep posts about Derpibooru in the thread on mlpg.co.

>Why alternate text sites?
Pastebin.com has deleted, and continues to delete, greentexts on the site. FimFiction does not allow stories in the greentext format, so a new home is needed.

Welcome back to the most unexpected tropical getaway of your life!

For those of you just joining us, you are Steelworks Novasurge Breeze Whistle Siren Song the 5th - or 'Nova' for short, great-granddaughter of industry and entertainment mogul Windsor Chime and soon-to-be heiress of his multibillion-bit estate.

Or, that WAS the plan. But then your parents decided to bring you along on a cruise, and on the way back home, your CRUISE SHIP met with a most bizarre and tragic end, its belly speared by mighty stone pillars that erupted from the depths of the ocean and ripped it in twain. The elevator you were on at the time was hurtled into the lower stratosphere, arcing over the horizon and crashing into the shallow water off the coast of a deserted island.

That island is where you've spent the last week, trying to find some sign of civilization and keep yourself alive...

If you wanna know more, you can find the rest of the story so far here: https://www.anonpone.com/quest/intotheblue/

>I knew you MOTHerbuckers couldn’t be trusted! You guys have always been salt-EEE about losing the war of mangoes and lanterns
>Moth Pony munching sounds
There's an awful lot of noise in the attic. ITT: Morbius controls the bats, moths drink liquid light (and JP8), /both/ is pronounced with every other beat missing, bat bumping (that's all they're good for), shoehorning moths into loving bat >rape (read: surprise sex), furthermore: cufuddling, moth maids, bat ponies have agro (deepest lore), kissing bats produces mustard gas, this post was typed by fuzzy scaled bug hooves, a demand for bats from the /both/ thread, an eeeconomic battepic recession, AI bats, the E program, solving the case of the mysterious P, remembering designs of threads gone by, counting bats with The Count, changelings and moths are naturally aligned, "6 years and you're all somehow still here batposting", smoking hot bats, biting moths, cooking bats, Mosina is so pretty bros, batification and enbattenment, fresh art for /both/ sides, flat muzzles turn the moths gay, svelte bat stallions turn Anonymous gay (shocking), bats and moths were a mistake, and all one (1) of the plonefags will bring the nukes to /both/.

It's how it was always meant to be.

>Can /both/ into other altponies?
/both/ has an open 'refugee' policy for altponies: other altpones are welcome for posting, particularly if they don't have a thread up. Above all, /both/ is the home of bats and moths, and it is encouraged that other altponies make their own threads. And for archive purposes, it's easier to keep new content to relevant threads.

>Haven't seen a thread for your altpony in a while?
Make one, bump it, see what happens.

Howdy, partner!

It's sure been a long time, hasn't it? Three hundred and fifty threads. That number seems unfathomable, was insane to even consider back in the days when Applejack first asked herself a question. Back when it all started with this gem.

~~~~~

>So, wait, why am Ah' a princess again?

>Because you seem to be the only goddamn one of those ponies who gets that a Princess need to do actual work regarding maintenance of the kingdom. You know how much city planning or trade negotiations Twilight or Luna have done? Fucking nothing. Everyone is obsessed with the world ending threats they think I should fight, but the minute I point out the free health care I have to work to maintain everyone goes quiet. And don't even get me started on Cadence, who can't even manage a basic meeting with the Equestrian Games representative. Fucking annoying. Go do actual princess stuff, because apparently everyone else got the pamphlets mixed up or something and thinks "Princess" means "Beat cop."

~~~~~

And it really was a gem, wasn't it? A shining seed nobody knew would grow into a full tree that spanned so many years, writers, stories, artwork, and love. A whole orchard grew from this, so many characters who lived and learned and grew along with us. The world got crazier, but we all loved it the same.

If you wanna give some art, write a fun story, or just say hello for old times sake, we'll welcome friends old and who we just met this thread. Whoever you are, welcome to Thread 350 of Princess Applejack.

Have some fun, and stay for a while.

It's been too long since we've had a G1 thread.

My Little Pony (G5) #3 still storytimed here
>>38886157

Still nearly two months of summer to go, and the hottest days are likely still on their way, but Equestrians are playing it as cool as they can. Where travel's not in the cards, the shade is getting a lot of use, as are rivers and pools, and there's at least one enterprising pony with a very large block of ice. Not too much else to do but take it easy and enjoy some nice refreshing beverages - eating a few pints of ice cream could help, too, but somehow that's usually reserved for other occasions.

Previous thread.

Last time on The Good Necromancer:
>The three of you wake up and head off to explore the nearby Keyian ruins. After a bit of exploring you find a basement in an old building and head down.
>In the basement you find a Dukh, a mass of souls that attack people. It attacks all of you and you kill it.
>After this the three of you meet back up with Copper and hit the road north to Labrivir and eventually Lalundzhik. The four of you find camp and you reveal yourself to be a Necromancer to Tanssija who takes it well.
>You and Tanssija find a pond nearby and bond a bit there, talking about how Tanssija had gotten her scars and burns. When the two of you get out of the pond you're attacked by a group of Deer who take Tanssija over the border to Alln Lenora.
>You go back to Smoke and after a bit of discussion you gallop over the border and get yourself killed, reviving a bit later inside the borders.
>You disguise yourself as a Deer and end up at a Deer city, getting allowed in by the guards.

Its that time for g5 related head canons again!
I'll start with mine

>The reason the ponies look so different in g5 is actually because they aren't actually ponies
>they are the result of luster dawn's attempts to create a new generation of ponies to survive a post cataclysm equestria
>To ensure that these new ponies would be able to survive what ever kind of enviroment the furture equestria may have, she has created several 'batches' of these artifical ponies that contain different mixtures of pony DNA and the DNA of other creatures
>there were mixtures with Griffon, fish, and even dragon DNA all set in different places across equestria
>the ponies in g5 just so happen to have dog DNA mixed with them!
