'''/mlp/ - Pony''' was created on February 17th, 2012. The show My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic had spawned a major subculture on 4chan during 2011, centered mostly on /co/ and /b/. There were so many posts that many Anons quickly grew tired of the "spam" and demanded that the horsefuckers be banned. After several failed attempts, Moot and the mods realized that trying to smother this subculture wasn't the answer, and thus /mlp/ was born, followed shortly by Global Rule <s>14</s>15: Thou Shalt Not Post Pony Outside /mlp/.

* February 17 - /mlp/ celebrates the 10th year of it's existence. As if on cue, Hasbro releases a preview of the upcoming G5 2D YouTube shorts meant to accompany the upcoming 3D series. They are all presented in the typical Cal-Arts style and the board goes apeshit. In addition several VAs from the 2021 movie confirm that they won't be returning for the series.

* April 1 - The joke is just Discord/Twitch chat style emotes. Meanwhile, reddit brings back r/place again after five years. The brony community scrambles to poni it up, and /mlp/ reluctantly joins in. Large twitch streamers start streaming the event, directing their hundreds of thousands of underage fans to wreak havoc on the canvas. After 11 years people still hate colorful cartoon horses, so ponies are a major target. In retaliation the bronies and /mlp/ (there ''is'' a difference) begin to use a botnet that uses (You)r computer and reddit account to place down pixels on whatever location needs it the most. Twitchfaggots seethe at this claiming it's unfair (as if them directing nearly a million in total to do what they want was fine) and afterwards sulk that the pones held the line to the end, despite them only being in it to "make nerds seethe over pixels[sic]".
