This Week on the Plounge (Holy Crap There's Actually News Edition)
Hello and again welcome to your weekly dose of 'What's almost 6 years old?': 'This Week on the Plounge' wherein I inform you, the fine folks of the mane sub, what's been going on at your favourite sister subreddit, the Plounge, this past week.
Wait, what is this Plounge you speak of?
The Plounge, or more formally the MLP Lounge is /r/mylittlepony's sister subreddit. Designed to be a place where you can free of the tyranny of rules 3 and 4. A chill place for bronies or anyone to talk in a SFW chat centric environment. It can be found over at /r/MLPLounge. (most of us browse by /new though). Oh and BPM is nice to have. You may not need it for yourself, but you will be missing out on tons of hidden ponies scattered across the forum.
What some casual conversation with a sprinkling of ponies? Come over to this introductions thread and meet some people.

- GMBlackjack is starting a 'Ponymotes Legend' story thing, which seems like exactly the thing mane subbers would like. BPM is required though. Here's part 1 and part 2.

How does a Plounge post made about 3 months ago lead to this here mane sub getting a new header? Are you sitting comfortably? Then I'll begin.
Okay, so remember like 3 months ago when Derpibooru decided to remove downvoting from their site (and replace it with hiding? Well that was poorly received and they quickly reverted it. Anyway AirfProject had created a set of OCs based on functions of Derpibooru's website: upvoting, downvoting, commenting and favouriting. So when downvoting was removed, what would happen to poor Downvote (the OC)? Hence why ArifProject created this piece.
Which got posted to the Plounge. Here's where I come in. In response to another comment, I made the comment that someone should draw 'Unemployed Downvote living with Discentia'. (downvote ponies gotta stick together y'know)
Fast foward to just this last week, and ArifProject (googling keywords around their art, 'cos y'know) finds that post. Finds my comment... and thus, it was done. - (direct)
Arif later edits Discentia's pose from that into the post you saw as the fourth highest link post this week. Which they then, a day or so later, posted here on the mane sub, where your mod team decided to liase with them to get it into the header you see above you right now.
