/mlp/ - Pony
/mlp/ was created on February 17th, 2012. The show My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic had spawned a major subculture on 4chan, 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 1415: Thou Shalt Not Post Pony Outside /mlp/.
Multiple altchans were created prior to the creation of /mlp/, but this article will focus on the 4chan board and culture.
