What this guy said. I've read probably close to four thousand stories and faved about 1400 of them, and trust me when I say I've seen at least a thousand worse.

It's contrived and designed to be a tear jerker. Rob has actually tried multiple times to move on to other less contrived fanfictions, but only one of them was at all successful.

Funny, I join it when I'm on and I see other people on it. Then again, I haven't played in a couple weeks.

The New Lunar Republic

The Wonderbolts

The Dark Brotherhoof

Cult of Celestia

Discord's Army

The Manehatten Police Department

I still play it, but not on pc. :P

Try the Immortal Game or Twilight's Dollhouse.

Recommended fics that are fairly original...hmm. I've read (or tried to read) about 3,000 fics and only a few of them really made me want to drop everything and finish them.

Hard Reset by Eakin
Background Pony by SS&E
Anthropology by JasonTheHuman
Asylum by Daemon of Decay
Solitary Locust by Parasprite
Lines and Webs by Airstream
Starlight over Detrot by...idk who.

Look through some of those and see what you like. If you don't find at least one of those to your satisfaction, don't bother reading any. Also if you prefer short stories instead of long fics, feel free to say so and I'll compile a list.

Oh goody, an anthro oc-centric fic. *cracks knuckles and sips soda* Tell me when and I'll read it!

I think clopfics are both fun to read and to write. If it's not your cup of tea, then I understand. Meh.

Maybe, it'd be pretty cool if there were.
