Re: Team Pony

Get your head out of your ass. You can enjoy a show if you like, the storyline of MLP in itself isn't bad, but it doesn't appeal to me. Still, if you change the way you speak/behave/act with other people in a way that that person can recognize pony-ism, you're alienating yourself.
I didn't shout "Lok'tar o'gar" in real life, I didn't wear WoW-clothing any further than a T-shirt or occasionally a pair of socks, even though I was a WoW-fanboy back then. Yet bronies say "everypony" or "anypony" and splurt out phrases from pony-based memes in real life, on top of that they DO wear MLP-clothing like vests, trousers, shoes, the exterior apparel.

You DO realize that pretty much every fandom ever does this? Like the Trekkies who speak Klingon with each other? Or the massive anime community, many of which have taken up learning Japanese just so they can watch the original undubbed shows and and play the games with the original voices? And all the various Doctor Who fans who dress just like the Doctor and made their own sonic screwdriver replica?

Just head on down to Comic Con some day and you'll see stuff like this from every fandom that's being represented there. Your problem isn't with how dedicated people are, it's just how dedicated WE are to a show you think should have stayed as a show just for girls. It's people like you that Lauren Faust wanted to change the minds of. If you refuse to change your opinion, then I'm politely asking you to stop harassing us and go about your merry way, and I won't think any less of you for it.

Yes, but there being other similar fandoms is no positive argument to have another one. That's saying that there's many different ways to rob a store, and you came up with a new one. It's still bad, awful, freakish fanboyism.

Again, just the fanboys, not all who enjoy something.

Re: Team Pony

TwistedPhoenix gets my thumbs up.

SKG_Scintill, it's not your thing. And that's okay. But don't you think you're taking this a little far? You're basically saying "Stop having fun because it doesn't appeal to me". Somehow other fandoms are okay, but this one isn't just because it's MLP? Most of what I see of the fandom is that it's just for fun and it's just a lot of people who enjoy the show or enjoy the fandom having fun with it -- that's all.

Maybe don't come into threads specifically designated for it if you don't like it? (As far as I know there's just two). And I haven't seen the "everypony/anypony" outside of the two pony threads but so what?

No one's forcing anyone to do anything they don't want to do. What I see is MLP is confined to avatars, signatures, and profiles (which are yours to do what you want with), outside of basically only two threads that go more into the show and fandom.

Or yeah, it seems to me the problem here isn't the MLP fandom.

I think every single post you've made has been nothing but mlp.

Do you actually have a life outside of mlp?

Just curious, because I'm fine with most ponies but it's the ones who show no sign of conscious thought outside of the show that bothers me.
