Wait, if 90% of everything is crap, does that "everything" include the 10% that isn't crap?

*head asplode*
Yes, yes it does, That is the famous corollary.

Aight, now that I don't have a killer headache clawing at my brain and I'm less bitchy let me re-do my opinion on that fic I mentioned earlier.

Overall, it was a pretty decent story bordering on good, which is saying a lot for clopfics. Even though he set Nyx up (filly Nyx, mind you) as a total slut, he did good. It wasn't like those normal clopfics that have no real reason for anything and just make it into a gigantic porno, he made it funny. The fic was written pretty well. I'll give it a 7/10. Though I still dislike it a bit since the internet has a way of perverting everything. It was also kind of short. I think better of the author now.

Why are we even talking about this? Man, I don't even know who Nyx is, but that's still not an image I particularly wanted.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

So why is making a fapfic with Nyx in it so bad, really?

Shit, it's a character. A non-existant entity that might as well be used in whatever ways. A real writer would be honored to have his material reused in further stories.

Really? That's what I like best about the internet.

Is anyone else doing NaPoWriMo?

Hey, completely missed this. Long story short? Yes. I'm writing a MLP/MtG crossover. Don't judge me, I'm having fun.

I would go and say it could be "child pornography" of sorts but I've seen that argument with anti-bronies too many times now. Something just irks me about that.

Google Doc's anonymous user system fails, there were 30 people in a chat asking what number they were. ::)

"child pornography"
Wat? Now you're just pushing social norms.
The closest thing it *might* come to is lolicon, though it wouldn't really count as one.

But nevermind that. You didn't phrase it as a "clopfic of a filly", you phrased it as "clopfic of filly Nyx", also mentioning the character's author. There's more behind this than the age, isn't it?

For that argument to be valid with regard to inappropriateness there has to be a real life induividual being exploited.
