If you don't like it, don't read it. Simple as that. I'm not into teen romance novels so I don't read them. Maybe you should start not reading things that bug you.

This. It's so off putting to see ponies swear, even in gritty fan fics. Like yes you have creative freedom but with the context of ponies it just seems wrong.

Yeah, I hate that stuff, OP.

>>27879315
How would they know unless they read it? It's just a phrase here and there. Not like they outline a green or fic with "Warning! Contains ponies swearing!" or anything. Or are you guilty of exactly what OP complained about?

I don't mind a swear in there but its when they start 'bro' talking that it crosses the line. Read a book, nigger

When I'm reading something and I see things I don't like, I stop reading and fugitaboutit. It's actually really simple and easy to do. Then I don't worry bout it every again and I move on to something else.

As opposed to, what, looking perfectly fine? How tragic could it be then?

>>27879270
Only swear I mind is "damned". It's so mild I don't even know why it's a swear.
>>27879189

If I wanted self-insert pity fucks I would've just spun a wheel for what harem anime to watch.
>>27881796
It's not about the fact that they're looking distressed, that's not unusual in the tragic situation. It just bugs me, because I've seen this particular sentence in most tragic stories I've read, word for word.
>>27879189
Generally appropriate if a pony is speaking. If you're writing AiE, for example, Anon (for instance) should not use horse puns, nor will other non-pony races generally.
>>27881235
This shouldn't bug me, but it does. I don't really understand why the opening line of so many greens are "be (this being)" when you can make it more interesting and fun just explaining things to get into character. Feels like a cheap way out to rush to 'the good bits' which usually also end up extremely half-assed since the writefag didn't want to bother setting anything up.
>>27881680
Pinkie refers to the planet as 'Earth' in season 2
>>27879189
Always thought that was kinda cute
>>27879228
Yeah, kinda annoying
>>27879258
Not necessarily bad, depends on the situation
>>27879270
come on, really? Thats boring and vanilla
>>27879270
>Anon swears internally and externally all the time about every little thing
Anon's perfectly allowed to do it, but the frequency with which writers make him go "fuck this, fuck that, fuck me, aw shit, what fucking now" seems like an attempt to appeal to the cynical nature of the board.
I'd also just like to throw out that saving your curses and swears for moments of extreme stress or emotion can further the impact of the scene, rather than dropping F-bombs every two paragraphs.
>>27882120
No I mean it's weird when ponies swear, especially established characters that have never done so before.
>>27882236
I get that, I was making a separate, though tangentially related complaint.
>>27882354
Fair cop

As a tremendous raging autist that writes greentext fanfiction, this rattles my fucking bones.
Use context and conveyance to tell the reader who the main character is, you hack frauds. Show, don't tell.

no. its a tithe to the fact that no one wants to read any of your shit if their cardboard cut out doesn't appear in it to soak up all the love and attention of any meaningful character.
These fucks are so greedy for it if even 1/4th of one obscure thread has threads with no anon they will declare that that thread is hostile to anon and wont let them post their stories in peace despite having most of that thread to themselves.
>>27879339
Please anon, this is a board of Celestia
>>27879189
Well, it *is* a world where peeved is considered a swear.
I've never read greentext threads. English isn't my first language and I'm too lazy to read 9000 lines of english.
Should I try to read them ?
>>27885032
Are you a filthy self inserting autistic mess? Is your entire relationship to the mlp franchise defined by wanting to fuck pones and having a waifu, and would you willingly and happily read story after story focused on you because you're the most important being to all the ponies to the point that it overrides all previous motivations of a character?
If you said yes to all of those things then why the fuck aren't you reading greens?
>>27885090
Just said it, the problem is the language. I understand english, but I feel lazy to read when it's a very long text.
I usualy read fan comics, they're easier to read for me.
Anyway, your point seems good. I'll try to read one tonight.

There are plenty of good ways to let the reader know who the character is without stating it outright at the beginning.

You will get used to it, believe me. I learned English playing Phoenix Wright understanding only small fucking bits, and nowadays I can read pretty much everything.
