    This... is kinda glorious. I had a feeling this year was going to be MLP themed but you've outdone yourself.

    At first I was like :|, but then I noticed Derpy hanging onto the side of the board and I was like :awesome.

    Can we get optional skins that have the normal looks but have our pony of choice hanging onto the side? I'd rather have something less eye-searing, but dat Derpy!

    I hate MLP, so I guess I am the butt of this joke but I can't help but wish the D​L​P theme was as polished as this. The icons are a severe amount better and the one hanging over the edge looks amazing.

    If you guys want a redux of the DLP theme in this general style thumbs up this post and depending on how many people want it, I'll do it.

    'Hooves up this post'
    'Canterlot'
    'Rainbow Dash' for Harry
    'Discord' for LV
    'Princess Celestia' for AD

    I just thought though, do these filters work on the WbA too? Because that's going to get annoying fast.

    I'm definitely keen.

    I reckon you should put a poll in, to gauge interest. I know i'd use it.

    Dark Lord Ρotter.

    That "P" is not a P at all, but actually Greek letter Rho. Even though the two letters are virtually identical, Rho and P have different character codes, so it fools most word filters.

    And now I must go to WBA to see all the new pony fics.

    More substitutions:
    Twilight Sparkle replaced the HP universe's bookworm. Obvious substitution is obvious.

    Applejack is Ron

    Trixie the Great instead of Draco.

    And Neville Longbottom gets no love.

    Its extremely easy to beat the word filters when your typing something without that Greek letter crap but reading I haven't figured out yet.

    I have to say, this was pretty damn impressive guys, Derpy on the side makes it perfect, Ponyville has never looked more disturbingly friendly.

    How comprehensive is the filter going to be by the end of the day, cause this is already pretty damn hilarious to read.

    I was reading The Divine Conspiracy and was like who the flank is Princess Celestia? And I thought Lord Anarchy was eating mushrooms or something while writing it. Nope. You are just the one eating the shrooms...

    And another substitution is discovered.

    All the various terms for excrement must be replaced with "Horseapples" ASAP.

    It appears the Avatars are starting to change as well.... I'm not sure if this is voluntary or am I suddenly going to have a pony pic instead of my standard crazy doctor Seuss.

    Edit: Replace Crabbe and Goyle with Snips and Snails, also make Bellatrix Nightmare Moon.

    Holy horseapples! Ponyville is falling into Discord! The bronies are everywhere! They're flanking us on all sides! All of Equestria will be overrun! Call Princess Celestia, she'll know what to do!

    This substitution thing makes for great fun I have to admit.
