Is this a new meme?
DeleteNo it's not. It's just some anons being assholes. :)
DeleteYeah, there are a lot of anons being assholes in the comments. These spammy messages are the least harmful but by far the most annoying.
DeleteSo CindaQuest Pony Fest has a terrible name, terrible OC, a terrible website (that isn't even complete yet,) and terrible spelling and grammar? I have never been this confident in a first year con before.
ReplyDeleteso what if they have a terrible name they probably know what they are doing
DeleteThis is the Pony fandom were talking about here with the exceptions of NMND and EFNW no 1 really knows what they are doing when it comes to cons, especially Bronycon its just a money farm disguised as a ponycon.
DeleteI know some of the people working for both of the SC conventions, and I can tell you already that CindiQuest was made out of spite- people are already jumping ship from it and some of the other cons are denouncing it.
DeletePalmetto Pony Con is ran by fractured frequencies and ArBrony Radio
Deletethey already have history in the fandom and with PVL. i WOULD not go to the con anyway just because its ran by
@Ty_Trance
in the mean time i think they are scams
two cons under different names working for the same bad pony
trying to get your money
its Mineorama all over again
http://kotaku.com/shady-minecraft-convention-disappears-ticket-money-mis-1620813226
Where are you getting the claim that Palmetto Pony Con and CindiQuest are being run by the same person? I know for a fact that they are not.
DeleteThey might not be ran by the same person but sure as hell not real and going nowhere
DeleteBoth of the Cons in SC are a Scam!!! They are both ran by the same group of people!! When Cinda tried to come to NC we said NO!!!! IT is a scam do not give them your money. Both the brony groups in NC and SC are not supportive of either con.
DeleteThey also have the beginning letter they start with in common: S
ReplyDeleteBoth of the Cons in SC are a Scam!!! They are both ran by the same group of people!! When Cinda tried to come to NC we said NO!!!! IT is a scam do not give them your money. Both the brony groups in NC and SC are not supportive of either con.
ReplyDeleteScam con 2016
ReplyDeleteSC are scams, They have no info other then date and place but yet they are ok to take peoples money. Definition of a scam kids
ReplyDeleteI don't think you know the definition of a scam, given that you seem to think that everything new is a scam. While CindiQuest is definitely sketchy as a result of its spiteful nature, it should be noted that Palmetto actually booted the creator of CindiQuest after a streak of criminal activity and bad attitude from him. Note that CindiQuest hopped around NC before settling on the exact same date and state as Palmetto had previously settled on.
DeleteAlso, what pony convention have you seen that had a full guest list an entire year before launch? If you still think it's a scam, I'd recommend you watch it for a while before you think about putting money down while they work with investors and solidify their guest list.
And this guys is CJ. .. Head master of scam empire^^^
DeleteActually I'm not CJ- I hate that guy's guts after he scammed some of my friends for free work and then tried to extort others to let them get their domain back. I always use a contract, something that CJ never will. If I ever meet CJ irl, I will have to resist the urge to smack him and his slandering ass. Trust me, I know CJ and he is basically incapable of making a coherent sentence or using spellcheck.
DeleteAnd if you're wondering, I have not been paid by PPC because I'm not fucking working for them- all I want is to work on my own stuff and hopefully get some artist alley tables at various conventions.
(one of the artist that worked for him)
DeleteCJ did not scam us we volunteered our time to work for the con and him
there is a difference between volunteering and stealing
he would of paid commission prices if he wished to do so but were were nice enough to volunteer our time
then this stuff happened so he pulled the plug
again if you knew CJ personally hes a nice guy (i went to his school)
He has refused to pay commissions while at the same time asking people to donate for his server after he once again fucks up his finances by commissioning a third-party artist to make something personal rather than keeping an account balance. I stopped doing work for him after he failed to pay me for a project and he went on to bug me for more free work, then bullshit happened where he held a domain hostage and then tried to file a trademark on Palmetto Ponycon after he had relinquished its domain. You might know him as a nice guy irl, but he's unprofessional to say the last when it comes to online interactions.
Deleteim going to call bull shit on that last comment
Deleteif he wants something he will pay like he does any other commission he gets
the only thing he had commission was that picture above
he has not commissioned anything else since that picture so your statement is a flat lie
~Wave2
You clearly don't know anything of his finances if you think he's only ever commissioned one image ever...
Deletehe pays his commissions end of story now quit trying to start a lie
Delete~Wave2Clan
You're the ignorant one here. He owes a few hundred dollars between several people for their services/borrowed money. Nobody who deals with him anymore will work without full or at least 50% up-front payment anymore because he'll say he likes something, then dodge important questions.
DeleteHe clearly doesn't know how art commissions work.
Thanks i know i am ignorant
Deleteall that is a lie a straight up lie so you can get people to not trust him
how about you ask his commissioners
~Wave2Clan
We've already clearly established that he lives a bit of a double life when it comes to certain activities. Can we just fucking drop it and learn from the situation, hopefully fix it?
Deleteyou can say that he lives in a double life
Deleteevil vs good then i can agree with that
but he is only evil when some one pisses him off and seeks revenge in a non harmful way
~Wave2Clan
CindiQuest is NO MORE stop bashing they don't exist our main focus is getting rid of PalmettoPonyCon
ReplyDeletewe already know they lack a website
lack info
and lack activity
all we can do is continue to screw them over by passing this article around to the other Con Chairs of every known pony convention out there
that will surely kill PalmettoPonyCon
http://puu.sh/kATI2/086650c287.png
ReplyDeletereally a QnA is that all you got????
just shut up and go away we don't need another pony scam
this is starting to turn into AudioWave Dasher non sense
What did you do....get this image just because its flooding in South Carolina http://puu.sh/kB9am/651b6f0ada.jpg
ReplyDeletechanging your profile picture does not mean anything people still think this is a scam
your better off doing what CindiQuest, close shop and just stop
Hey, just thought I'd let you know that I'm actually an acquaintance of the artist who designed that mascot, although I'm not actually associated with the con itself. While it is *terrible* juxtaposition with the flooding in SC, you might be interested to know that the artist actually lives in SC and wanted to draw a seapony anyway well before Juoquin hit the area. Fortunately she stayed safe during the storm, although I'm sure it wasn't fun being cooped up in there.
DeleteRegardless of what you think of the convention itself, you have to admit that it was incredibly unfortunate accidental timing. As much as I'm sure they like their new mascot drawing, I bet they've got their foot in their mouths with the timing.
Sweets the clan already know its you no need to hide your self behind the anonay tag
Deletebut still some people may take that to offense and worry more
South Carolina is not getting Federal Aid that's how bad it is down there
~Wave
I'm not Sweets, nor am I CJ or any of the other "usual suspects". I'm not affiliated with the convention but I do know some of the people involved well enough to have a better ear than most of the people bitching in the comments. I know that the weather damage really sucks, and regardless of what people are saying, the venue still did take the down payment, although that might wind up being returned if their damage is too bad. I do know that not a single ticket has been sold, which means that the money provided for the down payment has come from either funds raised internally, or from private investors.
DeleteAlso, I love how you're accusing people of making sock puppets when it's pretty obvious that CJ's making his own sock puppets. What business does AudioWaveDasher have criticizing anything anyway?
~FineTune
i can tell you why a single ticket has not been sold
Delete~Prices are too high
~People think the con is a scam
~The con is already blacklisted
~The con is very well known for drama and people don't like to deal with a con that has too much drama
~Wave2
I just checked their prices, and the 3-day pass is actually about average for conventions in general. Granted, I've never been to a pony convention so those might be cheaper across the board, but it's certainly cheaper than the "normal" conventions I've been to of similar anticipated sizes. They could definitely do to lower the price of the single-day tickets to reflect the 3-day tickets though.
DeleteAs for drama and questions as to whether or not it's a scam, that's largely CJ's fault, who is no longer with the convention after everybody working in it got pissed at him. I know for a fact that he's been spreading rumors, as he has done for a long time and is finally being outed for it.
I don't know much about their finances, but I do know that 90% of what I've seen posted about Palmetto PonyCon in the past few days is nothing more than speculation. Hold off on buying prereg tickets if you want and suggest that others do the same- that's common sense with any preorder. However, all I'm seeing is a witch hunt.
~FineTune
CJ did not get kicked out he was forced to step down by Ty and L9
Deletejust by the way he ran things yes he runs things like shit who gives a fuck
his personality is amazing
and Ty has a bad rep with a few other people ie PVL
~Wave2
Once again, speculation, not facts.
DeleteI was actually there when the "coup" happened and nearly everybody involved(I was just listening in), including his station's staff, wanted him gone for doing stuff like micromanaging and horrible grammar in negotiations with venues. Idgaf about what you're saying about Ty, but my experience with CJ has been far less than stellar, even in non-professional contexts. He's petty and homophobic(at least online anyway), and frequently engages in legal fuckery despite his complete lack of knowledge of contract and IP law. I'm a little surprised he hasn't been arrested or sued yet.
I'm sure he's an okay person irl, but I'd certainly not work under him any more than I already have- money and attention seem to taint everything when it comes to him. Even if he means well, he's got a long way to go as far as maturing goes.
Deleteim not going to the con due to the fact that it attracted so much drama
ReplyDeletenot a single dime from me will go into that con
~Wave2
And that's fine, no one is forcing you to go to PPC. If you change your mind, the doors will be open September 2-4, 2016.
DeleteAfter being blacklisted I don't think anyone wants to go... you can thank your little friend CJ and maybe in part of me messing with him for your potential con to go sour next time be more public about it and not have your website be so lacking with information
DeleteWait, did you just say you *wanted* to get it blacklisted before anybody had even made speculations? You do realize that there's not gonna be much information an entire year before a 1st year convention, right? Anybody who knows anything about running an event knows that the planning phases have the least information and lowest engagement, which would make sense for the website to be only partially done- it's pretty obviously not a wordpress theme.
DeleteDick move man(or whoever you are), dick move.
The staff chat is disorganized and so off topic when some one asks a legit question i think the con is already dead from the start

Nope. All I said was the con got blacklisted due to your little friend and all I was doing was messing around with him which made him look like a joke and because of this and his persistence with that con that is non existent... He pretty much gave your con a bad rep also too add the main admin in the SC brony group thought he could make a con a few months back called canterlina but that fail epicly thus make me doubt this con but again the messager ruined the con end of story
DeleteYou DO realize posting a small snippet of a PRIVATE conversation could be considered a breach of privacy? And that so much information is talked about through Skype calls that posting the chat regardless is a skewed source to back up your argument with, regardless.
DeleteSo your word is not credible whatsoever to me. You're also an asshole, there's also that.
i have no idea if this conversation is over or what not
Deletebut it sounds like the con is officially dead am i correct
we can also conclude that Ty is a dick l9 is a dick and there entire crew is a complete disorganization bunch of cry babies
there pr team is proabably shitting bricks right now going "what do we do what do we do" while sitting in a Fetal position in a corner
ill seek my crew out to start more drama on this con ill keep you guys posted here
~Wave2Clan
I have to agree with Sweets on this one- whether or not an NDA was signed, sharing stuff posted in a group chat is a dick move and a huge breach of privacy. A snippet that small is basically useless, especially if the group chat is compartmentalized like it should be. If I were to go through just about anybody's chat logs, I could find something that looks very bad out of context, possibly even use the lack of context to flag somebody as a criminal in the least credible way possible.
DeleteAs for you, Wave. Anybody who goes around deliberately trying to start drama is too petty for respect- that's just some Mean Girls shit right there.
you do realize that i really don't care right
Deletethey are shitting bricks right now on a con that is already dead from the start wondering what the fuck to do
they can't do a QnA because they will get bombarded with a shit ton of question they can't handle
~TheWave2Clan
No NDA no breach in privacy. That should be the first thing someone does before they join a cons team
DeleteThey have no NDA nore an LLC not even a contract
DeleteThey are planing on LLCing the con witch that is going to fail beuse they have to list everyone who is apart of the con executive team
~TheWave2Clan
Wave, if you don't care, then why are you still going on about it and trying to justify your rants? Do you just spend the entire day white knighting for people or something? Also, for fuck's sake, work on your spelling and "law expertise".
Deletewho gives a fuck about spelling right now
Deleteapparently you care
~TheWave2Clan
Unlike you, I never said that I didn't care. My dedication is minimal, but you're all over the place in these comments while I've just posted from the "mean girls" on in this thread. I just think that your complete disregard for English makes your argument look increasingly childlike, not that your content is much more mature or knowledgeable.
DeleteYou've done nothing but call people liars(while making wild accusations yourself), openly admit that you were going to spread rumors, and make fun of people. I have been given absolutely no reason to believe anything you say(including your screen name), and absolutely every reason to not believe any further accusations you make. I'm probably not going to Palmetto Pony Con(for travel reasons, not necessarily the accusations), but I will absolutely investigate some of this stuff when I'm bored enough and when there's some legitimate information available instead of another anon's musings.
what if i am not English
DeleteTalk to PVL about Ty
or just mention Fractured Frequencies
~TheWave2Clan
You are on an English-speaking website, and if you are not in the US, then that destroys your narrative about being an irl friend of "cj" as you mentioned elsewhere in the comments in his defense.
DeleteAs for Ty and PVL, I can do my own research on that.
Yo FUCK off TheWaveClan i don't know you and you don't know me
Deletei have no clue who you are and why my name is in your mouth
get lost kid this conversation is over
let PPC do there work
~CJ
Oh there you are CJ welcome to the shit storm ... There is no escape ... Until the drama dies down in which the north wins and the south deals with lots of "waters" and Mr wave you can call me ~t123
DeletePS you caused this gg m8
Ahhaha there is an escape its called ignoring everything
Delete~TheWave2Clan
God fucking dammit Wave, he tried to start making it right and you're just fanning the fucking flames! Your head is shoved so far up your ass that I bet you can taste tonsils- no wonder you manage to ignore everything contrary to your bullshit narrative!
DeleteCj is just a fucking dumb ass. Trying to "fly low" so that no one knows you are the con chair. I don't know what else says Scam but that.
DeleteThat of course isn't to say that CJ's not terrible at scheming, just that this is accusation is actually almost too stupid to be legit.
Delete"God fucking dammit Wave, he tried to start making it right and you're just fanning the fucking flames! Your head is shoved so far up your ass that I bet you can taste tonsils- no wonder you manage to ignore everything contrary to your bullshit narrative!"
DeleteThanks tastes wonderful
"Cj is just a fucking dumb ass. Trying to "fly low" so that no one knows you are the con chair. I don't know what else says Scam but that."
CJ is not con chair anymore for CindiQuest (now disbanned) nor PalmettoPonyCon (soon to be disbanded)
he is actually quite happy that he is not running a con
and the reason he flies low is because that's what he does no one knows where he is form time to time
its basically away for him to lie low until this shit storm dies down
That of course isn't to say that CJ's not terrible at scheming, just that this is accusation is actually almost too stupid to be legit."
What the fuck.......am i reading
~TheWave2Clan
There is no "soon to be disbanded." Palmetto Pony Con is happening and it is not going away.
DeleteYou sure about that sweets that the con will not happen
Deletethe con is going to crumble beneath your feet
and the con will cancel
~TheWave2Clan
But it won't. I have faith it won't and I know that the team strives toward the same goal I do-- to make a great convention in SC for all the southeastern bronies to enjoy.
DeleteAnd that's "Ma'am" to you.
fuck formal greeting i am calling you what is listed above
Deletesadly some of the southeastern bronies cant enjoy i
the con banned one of them
~TheWave2Clan
What the fuck are you even saying with that horrible grammar? Do you just like shitting on every new business under the sun?
DeleteAnyway, I guess it's nice that you admit that your own shit tastes great to you... Nice mis-quote by the way, cunt.
Thanks for the complements :3 they are so wonderful
Deletebasically you can compare me to AudioWave Dasher but ten times worse and more violent
you know that fag who shits all over musical artists
soon we will be the new HorseNews in the fandom as we find the most shit storms that people can find
even if its minor we will rain hell upon the fandom....i will suggest that everyone keeps there noses clean
we are coming
~TheWave2Clan
So basically you want to be a professional slanderer when you grow up? Coming to a court room near you...
DeleteCompare us to HorseNews but 10x worse
Delete~TheWave2Clan
Yeah, go ahead and say that garbage on HORSE NEWS. I really hope they find this little treasure trove. If anyone can dig around for info it's Horse News, and I would love to see what you really are.
Deletehmmmmm i did say this on horse news
Deletemaybe i will get recognized there is nothing stopping them from taking this little article and using it
just makes me more Horse Famous
~TheWave2Clan
The fuck. Also, I searched your username all over the place and couldn't find jack shit. How's a nonexistant user gonna become famous, especially when he's got no content but a whole lot of attitude?
Deletebecause we exist just not to your eyes
Deleteyou cant surch us because we are deeper in the internet try us
im supprsied that HorseNews did not make an article of this yet
HA
~TheWave2Clan
That sounds like an answer from someone who has no weight or pull anywhere on the Internet at all.
DeleteSounds about right- on the normal Internet, if you can't be searched, you can't really have much influence unless you're actually the "illuminati"(which would have no interest in revealing itself as an orgy of asshats). Deep Web is not nearly the same thing. I think the reason that HN hasn't made an article yet is because literally nothing has happened other than Wave making an ass of himself and pretending to be CJ's friend before getting caught and going on a little "evil laugh" schpiel.
Deleteoh we exist trust me
Deletei wonder if Audio WaveDasher is willing to join this clan
~TheWave2Clan
Sure he would- it would just bring your credibility even further into the red.
DeleteAlso a little info, after talking to both the head of pr and someone from there staff (that also told me that she was going there next week to get measurements) they both assured me that the convention center was reserved and a down payment was put on it. After calling the con 2 times one two days again and one time today. They had told me both times that nothing was reserved for those dates, and nothing has been put down and signed. So can add providing false info to that. When I contacted one of the people in charge about it was left without an answer. But awesome part it was skype so you could see him trying to make up a response and then just going up.
ReplyDeleteit does not matter there was no down payment (confirmed from the con center)
Delete~TheWave2Clan
It's... almost like a huge storm didn't JUST happen in South Carolina.
DeleteThat kind of messes with things, y'know?
OMFG A CON NEAR ME! I'm afraid to go <.<
ReplyDeleteTo be honest, I think the best time to register for a convention is like 2 months before the event. That way everything's all solidified and stuff. If Palmetto's still around, there should be a lot more information then.
DeletePersonally, I probably won't be going unless I can get a few carpoolers or something though- Maryland's closer to me than SC anyway.
i would not go anyway
Deletethey don't know what the fuck they are doing
low life scum bags who can't even have a decent conversation in there staff chat
also i would not go anyway they may steal your money
~TheWave2Clan
Okay then. Even if they are poorly-organized at the moment, I don't really think you have any right to call them scumbags after what you pulled in the comments above. You admitted to espionage and slander...
DeleteMy point is, if they're too badly organized to hold a convention, we'll know well before the aforementioned two months, so there's basically no risk there.
Anon: We'll be happy to have you! Please keep your eyes on the Twitter for info and further developments!
