I fully agree. It's becoming so wide spread now that it's just gone past the point of annoying.Eri said:
Welcome to the herd, bronies represent, yadda yadda yadda....
In all seriousness, the show IS getting alittle over-hyped. Don't get me wrong, its an awesome show, and Lauren is one of my personal idols.
But come ON. Its not the end-all show depicted in the wood grains of the Holy Cross. Its an above-average show from something that could have easilly been dismissed as a lame 'lets have tea parties!' girly show.
So, the short version. Yes, I am a brony. I even developed my own pony-sona for use in an RP. But I'm NOT an insane, troll-brony that clogs up the internet. But...thats the tragic fate of all that is good in this world.....

Ni. I gotta say, I understand. Hi. Name isn't Ryu, but you can call me that. Anyways, I myself dream of a world of true equality. Where the only reason people are treated differently, are for acctual valid reasons. (I.e., the obnoxious jerk is shunned, regardless of race or gender. Same goes for people who do good in this world.)Bara_no_Hime said:
Sadly, that world isn't here. But I'm sounding....kinda over-the-top at the moment.
In the end, why can't the term be 'a fan of MLP:FiM?' I'm reminded of Yhatzee's colomn on the term 'gamer'....
Allright. Now I go back to Unskippable.
Okay, okay... I finally got around to finding out what the hell is going on around here. Not that it didn't bother me before, but now I guess I just felt un-lazy and decided to check it out. Now, I'm gonna be as delicate as possible in saying this: You need help, sir(s)(and madams, I suppose) I TRIED (emphasizing on 'tried') to watch the first episode and this is by far the corniest, most cheesy, childish thing I've seen since Teletubies(or however the f@#k you spell that) and that thing about a bloke called Spartacus. At first, when I saw the title of the first ep "friendship and magic" I thought it was a parody of some sort, you know, making fun of the whole concept of friendship and stuff, using ponies and all, that would've been cool. 2 minutes in, still holding on to the theory about the parody, but after that whole "prologue" in the beginning, the stunning realization hit me - these guys actually take this SERIOUSLY! And now, don't get me wrong. I am an anime fan, I've watched a lot of animes, and let's be frank, some of them are very... awkward. As in cheesy, childish, outright stupid. But nothing, such as this, can even compare itself in that aspect. I guess, the only way I can explain this phenomenon, and the fact that it actually became a phenomenon in the first place, is that there are too many people who have not had a propper childhood, if you get what I mean. This is just my opinion, so... you guys just wait for the big men in the white coats to arrive and take you to "The Happy Hotel", m'key...?

Ok, I just have to ask:AroLombardi said:

Can there be an option that doesn't force me to feel like I'm alienating you people? I'm sorry, but I used to think bronies liked the show for what it is, but now I'm beggining to think you just like the fact that you're different.
I'm not interested in the show nor particularly fond of the constant threads and posts regarding it on this website alone.
Seriosuly, everywhere else got over it pretty fast. It would be like if everyone here had avatars of Charlie Sheen quotes and Keyboard Cat.

I don't understand, I'm not trying to knock it, because I've never actually seen it for myself but, I honestly can't imagine how anything with that name could garner such a large and positive response from such a vast age range.
I just don't get what the hype is about.

Tried watching the show. Watched the first five episodes, got bored, went back to watching Futurama. I honestly do not understand the appeal. I watched the amount of episodes that people generally agreed was enough to get "hooked", but I never did. It was just kind of bland and samey...
It seems to me that the most appropriate gender neutral term would be "MLPeople", or "MLPeeps" or whatever. In return to full use of this wonderful newly minted term, you guys have to keep the talk about ponies down to a dull roar, okay? I get that you like a show, I wasn't grabbed by it, that's just how personal taste is. Some of you take it waaay too seriously, but that's true of any fandom. I don't have an issue with you guys until you just keep on bringing it up over and over and over. Surely there are dedicated forum sites for your show, and you could use those to your heart's content without bothering the rest of us? I don't think that there are many more converts coming, at this stage we're pretty much all either MLPeeps or not. Good fences make good neighbours...Tarkinor said:
