[QUOTE=Zenpod;33463748]I had a pretty shit first impression of Bronies, During the time that I like to call the Rainbow Civil War when they first arrived here and it all kicked to utter shit. I though they were utter cunts and shitposters (Which at the time, They were, You can look back over the old threads), I held them in a negative light until about a month after the ban where I saw the remaining pony members, Who are actually decent posters (exept ragun cagun jesus) getting flammed to fuck for absolutely no reason, Hell, I took part in it to some degree, but then when that Pizza Hut video came along I decided fuck this I'm Neutral on it now. Ever since I've been trying to diffuse shit exactly like this before it started, which I managed to some degree, and I hope we can just leave the Pony members to whatever the fuck they're doing and they'll leave us alone and continue to be just like the rest of us just with a specific taste in some show A tv show divided this site, how the fuck [editline]27th November 2011[/editline] [B]I still find 90% of the fandom completely fucking retarded though[/B][/QUOTE] That was pretty much what I said originally. What really annoys me is stuff like this... abomonation. This mod really shouldn't exist. Theres liking a show, and then there is taking it to an extreme. Somebody spent their time creating a mod which turns all the player models into ponies. When you say it out loud it sounds really dodgy, but people eat this shit up. Anything you can imagine has some pony shit shoe horned in for no real reason. You could take fallout as an example, it has a very good modding community. One of the best if you can ignore all the my waifu shit, but somebody uploaded a mod that changed all the billboards to pony... stuff I guess. Why? For the sake of it. Not becuase it added any new gameplay elements are extended your playtime, simply because it had ponies in it. This encompases that 90% of the fanbase you consider stupid, but thats still a majority. It gives off a bad first impression, and seen as though that 90% are vocal, people hate them. The subject matter of said fanbase doesn't make it much better either. People you know, occasionally get sick of seeing pony phrases or sprays plastered all over the place. Also, I don't see how BRONY PIZZA HUT made you neutral about this, please elaborate.
I don't mind the MLP fad I just want to know how it got started. I've seen clips from the show and it just seemed like a typical cartoon series albeit with some nice animation.
[QUOTE=Streecer;33463948] Also, I don't see how BRONY PIZZA HUT made you neutral about this, please elaborate.[/QUOTE] I noticed that even our pony members were disowning it and alot of the anti brony guys sounded really stupid so I was just like "Fuck this I don't really like either side, Imma just stay in the middle"
[QUOTE=Nobaddy;33463146]If you don't like this mod and/or My Little Pony you can either A) Flame how everybody that likes the show has bad opinions on entertainment B) Complain about how this mod never should be made C) Stay away from brony servers/threads/forums/websites and don't download the mod.[/QUOTE] Slightly unrelated, but every time I join a server in any steam game there's atleast like 3 applejacks and 2 fluttershys. At first it really wasn't a problem, but now it's just stupid.
[QUOTE=Raidyr;33463990]I don't mind the MLP fad I just want to know how it got started.[/QUOTE] Al I know is It all started in 4chan. The sad thing right now is all the boys show like Transformers starting to get lamer while My Little Pony is getting better. Watch the original Transformers movie and it was awesome while MLP movie was just boring.

Some people then found out that they actually enjoyed watching it, so they told their friends about it, and it eventually it just spread all over the internet. It eventually became so annoying that ponies got banned from several websites which led to the creation of Ponychan, Canterlot Forums, Equestria Daily, etc.

It was made for little girls. Grown men watch this. I don't see a dora the explorer fad or anything... why this.
[QUOTE=RedRibbonMurderer;33464182]:suicide: This show is for little girls. It was made for little girls. Grown men watch this. I don't see a dora the explorer fad or anything... why this.[/QUOTE] The only possible reason that I can fantom is that the show helps them reminisce about their childhoods, which most of the bronies have probably lost; considering the fact that that the show's creator, Lauren Faust, also helped the create a bunch of other shows that we watched when we were younger (i.e. The Powerpuff Girls, Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, The Iron Giant, etc.) [editline]idk[/editline] I guess grown men watch it too due to the fact that they enjoy the show for what it "has to offer" (i.e. the characters, plot, etc.). I guess I should've mentioned that beforehand, sorry.
[QUOTE=RedRibbonMurderer;33464182]:suicide: This show is for little girls. It was made for little girls. Grown men watch this.

It seems to me like people on here complain that MLP fans do nothing but shove MLP stuff in their faces, then they use YouTube comments as their examples. YouTube is just a bunch of idiots and we all know that. Try finding a true brony comment on Facepunch that isn't from some troll or 12 year old who just joined, it's a lot harder. No doubt there are some examples, but not as many as you people make it sound.

But people joining a server with mlp sprays, using their pony lingo... it's just weird. And youtube is pretty much a shithole now, but the MLP stuff is only contributing to making it worse.

And any way you put it, it's still a show aimed at children.
[QUOTE=Streecer;33464355]Youtube was always a shithole.

Then you argue that those shows have adult jokes and references, well so does MLP. Then you say it's bad because it's aimed for girls. Well an adult watching a show for little boys isnt that much better. You like your shows and they like theirs'. Bare in mind i'm not defending the fans because I am one, I defend the fans because a good portion of Facepunch members are complete dicks and treat everyone who has a pony avatar or whatever like shit and are really prejudice and awful.

I'm all for a person doing whatever they like, but i'm tired of seeing this little girl's show being spammed throughout the internet. It literally [I][B]IS[/B][/I] being shoved into my face. Every thing I do on the internet, I have to see some reference to this pony show. I honestly don't care if you have an avatar or say you watch it in your spare time, but people really need to stop with the pony talk and stuff. It's going overboard. You don't see a minecraft Adventure time mod, although it would be pretty cool because it might actually be fitting to the game. This pony stuff is just unrelated. It's a show for little girls. LITTLE GIRLS. Adventure Time and The Regular Show would be considered shows that you would see on Toonami, if it were still around, which has TEEN shows.

Regular show is an example, it has a lot of adult references, internet culture jokes and it even swears subtly in some episodes. It's pretty borderline with an adult show, most kids would miss pretty much every joke. They had an entire episode which pretty much spoofed the big lebowski. Adventure time is a childish show, but the randomness is funny. And it doesn't have a really vocal fanbase. MLP, is pretty blatently aimed at children with the occassional reference slapped in there. I wouldn't know how frequent they are becuase I haven't watched it. but unlike regular show I doubt they're frequent enough to hold the show as a program anybody can watch and not be called out for it.

Telling an entire fanbase of thousands of people to stop spreading their stuff around is impossible. However I myself am annoyed sometimes by all the pony content I find when looking for other things. All i'm saying is that taking all your frustrations out on a single person who isnt even doing anything wrong (MasterG) is counterproductive.

[QUOTE=~Myst;33464782]If you cannot tell that's a joke, you need a better sense of humor.[/QUOTE] A joke that he knew would incite an argument.
[QUOTE=Streecer;33464807]A joke that he knew would incite an argument.[/QUOTE] I dont think that started the argument. Any time there is any MLP on Facepunch an argument immediatly forms. If I were a bigger mlp fan than I probably would have said that too, as a joke.
[QUOTE=MasterG;33451900]brb reinstalling minecraft.[/QUOTE] Hey guys look at me I like MLP I even have a MLP avatar and I go into [B]every[/B] pony-related thread and show it off, occasionally also defending it just to attract even more attention!

You're like those republicans who say that being gay is alright, just as long as they don't show it in public. Also, why the hell are you giving him attention. Is it really so mind blowingly difficult to [I]ignore[/I] him? He posted one comment and you jump on him like a pack of hyenas.

Or they would make a big deal out of it like you are.
[QUOTE=acds;33464886]Hey guys look at me I like MLP I even have a MLP avatar and I go into [B]every[/B] pony-related thread and show it off[/QUOTE] I like Metal and I went into a Metal thread to say how I like it, I have a metal related avatar and I can play this game too

[QUOTE=Streecer;33465044]Except nobody laughed[/QUOTE] Funny x 22
[QUOTE=Streecer;33465044]FP doesn't like MLP.[/QUOTE] It's something like a 8:4:1 Hate:Neutral:like Ratio
I like how you guys point out that one post, and nothing afterwards.
[QUOTE=Zenpod;33465093]It's something like a 8:4:1 Hate:Neutral:like Ratio[/QUOTE] That's called a majority, there was a reason MLP threads were banned. Either way it only leads to arguments likes this.

[QUOTE=Zenpod;33465157]Like how people like noise music, no-one can explain why they do they just do[/QUOTE] It's pretty simple really. It's just a fun show to watch. It's got some good slapstick, the writing is clever, and the animation looks quite nice. And it's just cute, in the same way that looking at a picture of a kitten doing something silly is cute. Honestly, if the subject matter were [I]anything[/I] other than ponies, the writing and everything was the same, I wouldn't be surprised it more people watched it.
