Ask a Regular Pony

Not every pony can be a musician, athlete, magician or force of nature. Needs to be a few Everyponies. But every pony starts off as a blank slate. So let's get to building through questions! Click on the button below and let the construction commence! Mod...

More Twitch emotes

[askaregularpony]

We're still going strong on Twitch.

Dusted off the ol' tablet to start cranking out some questionably adorable emotes for the channel.

Be sure to be creatures of taste and drop by.

Been working on filling my Twitch emotes up with this weird little chimera/cryptid/silly little guy. The burnout I had from doing the Ask blog has faded to a pink mist, so we're looking at more consistent updates.

If you'd like access to this feller on Twitch, and whatever other adorable nightmare I birth in my mindwomb, drop a follow at: https://www.twitch.tv/djparadroid

if you're just a Sapling or Holo Stan you can ignore the rest of this. If however, you like Reggie please read on.

Guess I'll be a little more descriptive here. It's been the better part of a decade since I sat down and seriously drew anything. Pulling out a tablet and sitting in a chair with the deliberate goal of creating something I didn't have much interest in was nothing but a chore.

So I moved away from it. Focused on streaming, despite the lack of interest mostly everyone else had in it. While doing so, falling down the HoloLive rabbit hole seemed natural.

Returning to digital art just was a natural progression of things. I had emote slots to fill, so I got a new Samsung tablet to fill them.

So here we are. If folks send me some asks for the blog, and my interstate is piqued, we may find a return to answering questions.

However streaming on Twitch is still my focus, and I plan on staying mostly separate from the previous community.

Just part of a WIP, where the reasonable question "how many fingers is too many" was raised. Clearly it remains inconclusive.

War Criminal Oshi.

Getting my hours in on the new tablet. If I can get the turnover down far enough, it isn't unreasonable that the blog could be revived for a while.

(Just testing the waters. If they're still warm. Well. We'll see.

[askaregularpony]

Oh. Hey there.

This page looks a little messy. Perhaps over the weekend I may come back through and square away some of the detritus. Make this archive a little easier to view. Maybe occassionally I'll toss an answer here if time permits. For now let's just fondly remember a silly character that we all seemed to enjoy.

Are you defending pedophila?

If I was I wouldn’t have reblogged the article in the first place.

Regarding the PSA

Don't demonise folks who have conflicting opinions than you. Remember it's important to be aware rather than alarmed.

PSA: Tumblr Ask Blog runner arrested for possession of child pornography.

So some Tumblr pony ask blog runner got arrested for possession of child pornography. Way to set a good image for the fandom there buddy. He was all ready and set to go to Bronycon as well to be among countless children. The idea makes my skin crawl.

If any of you had any connection to him, I would suggest immediately cutting ties. Obviously it’s up to you, but this is disgusting. Absolutely fucking disgusting.

Remember when Pony ask blogs were run by great people and we all had fun, there was no drama and your biggest concern was getting Rai to reblog you for a boost in followers? Ah, those were the days. 

I’d ask my followers who are still in the MLP fandom to reblog this and spread the message that this is a person who needs to be avoided, especially if you are young. There are people less than twelve years old in the MLP Ask Blog community still, this is important.

[askaregularpony]

As this is a fandom that has a lot of younger fans this is important. Please reblog.

Happy Birthday Reggie/DJ

Sure am celebrating by editing and recording. Woop woop.

[askaregularpony]

I don’t mean to leave everyone hanging, but I’ve been firing on all cylinders with my main project. So much so that it’s taken up pretty much all of my time in editing, promotion and recording. And as I’m my boss I think I’ve been overdoing it but I can’t let up just yet.

I’m so very, very sorry.

[askaregularpony]

Update: After so very much time and effort we're a mere 15 subs away from 100, so I should be back behind the Pony Express sooner than I thought possible. Thank you everyone for you time and patience - it hasn't been long for you but it's been a dang eternity for me. Oh, and I've been referring to the YT channel. AaRP's creeping back up to 3000 followers, which feels weird too.

Working Holiday (Update)

I don't mean to leave everyone hanging, but I've been firing on all cylinders with my main project. So much so that it's taken up pretty much all of my time in editing, promotion and recording. And as I'm my boss I think I've been overdoing it but I can't let up just yet. I'm so very, very sorry. So what does that mean for AaRP? Well, once I get the channel up to 100 subs and they start coming without the enormous promotional campaign I've embarked on Reggie will be back to an update every week. This isn't me saying 'go sub and I'll start updating again', as I'm looking for an audience, not well-meaning folks trying to give me a leg-up. Reggie still means a lot to me, and to all of you and I'm not abandoning her. I'm just extremely busy. Hopefully this won't take more than a week and change so please - just be a little patient. I've never worked harder at anything in my life than I am now so please bear with me. If you are interested in two idiots trying to be funny and play videogames, then go have a look. Otherwise just give me a little time. Thank you. Fatigued and sincere, - Chris "DJ" Schlatter

Almost three years, huh? Just remember folks, even with a terrible work ethic and drive you too will improve if you put a little time into it.

No streaming for a while

As my roommate is having his holidays, my window for streaming has vanished for a few weeks. But I'll still try to get the pony update timelapses uploaded here, and gaming will just be restricted to here. I'll get back into it once he becomes a useful member of society again.

[askaregularpony]

Why Anon... why? ----- Just quickly: We're still 14 Subs away from our next extra Regular Pony update. My weekly Steam Key Giveaway is still going. And finally, thanks everyone for your continued support. Every bit of support gives me the drive to continue doing what I'm doing.
