The polarizing reactions to My Little Pony

Given the constant insults and implications from posters? Anger mixed with disdain.

*Shrug*

I've been hated for more petty things. After a while you learn that the best thing you can do when people hate you over stuff like this is to just laugh it off.

they've never been popular enough to be relevant off season.

Then why not moving the anime thread or that thread about those korean girls that some of GAF seem to be obssessed about? I mean, those are big "special sub-communities" too.

No, your thread got moved because it was popular AND had too much hate from "VeryManly&EwGirlStuff-GAF" and was sent to a section only few people go to reduce the trolls.

well of all gaf factions ponies are the most controversial.

I think the most favored faction is SNSD, since they're never really brought up or anything.

Frankly I think PONY GAF is going to be sidelined since theres a ton of new GAF Factions.

It'd be ideal if all community groups were handled like that.

Maybe they get to stay because there is content coming out to discuss (like new Animes and new episodes of ones they discuss and new koren girl group pop songs and music videos/interviews for them to sqeeeeeee over)?
Just a guess. I know when the MLP S1 finished there was no more official content to discuss, only fan art and previously aired stuff.

Anime and K-Pop stuff is perpetually relevant. There is no off-season.

If that's the case then I don't see why it has mod approval to move back to OT for Season 2.

Then maybe Evilore or someone else should change the description of the Community section to

Community Forum (134 Viewing)
NeoGAF user matchmaking and strategy discussion, internal tournaments, buy/sell/trade and MLP off-season

Would be more accurate. Because you guys speak like Community is only good to very popular shows on GAF that are off-season, not special subcommunities.

because those threads always have new content.

anime is always on, the snsd thread follows an entire music industry. no shortage of stuff to talk about.

He really should, as it totally would be.

Hilarious human pony pic by the way Otrebor.

*Edit*

Your edited pic is far less amusing. Oh well, I'll always remember what your favorite types of ponies are to post. ;)
 
oh come on Otrebor, what's with the edit? Surely you meant to post that so why change it?

Come on I thought you were the "SHOCK" poster!

You're not the guy I thought you were.

It was rather huma...er...ponies. Yes. Shocking!

Oh yeah but he's afraid for some reason, here I thought it was mr. grinch guy posting crazyness again! Guess it can't be images.

Surely a pm will change your views of him.

I'm a firm believer "that to every each, his or her own." But Pony-GAF... Have some self-respect
I have the self respect to not let random people interfere with stuff that makes me happy. I'm no longer in grade school, after all.

Thanks for your concern and support of my fandom.

Im not the shock poster. Human ponies in anime form are not shocking. My post was in favor of a unison between anime and ponydom. Upon thought I realized this was a bad idea so I changed.
 
Showmeyamoves said:
You are however watching a show for grade school girls so... yeah.
Yeah, I watch Disney/Pixar movies as well. Your point being?

It's cool though, if I had an avatar/name based on Douglas J. I'd be pretty angry myself. Considering what they did to him in Brawl and all that. You have my pity.

color me dissapointed.

No , pulling pictures out of your personal fetish folder will not change my mind.

oh you edited that out too, this is so amusing!

It's amazing, the most vocal haters of ponies always seem to have the most... interesting pony pictures at their disposal.
 
Stealth Editor said:
So what is the premise of this pony show?

there's a pink pony and she tortures her friends and she mutilates them and then bakes them into food and she has a little pony assistant keep them in cages til it's time for them to be mutilated by said pink pony.

I wish I was making this up.
 
I recently saw the show as well. I know why it has the polarizing reaction and the whole thing is amusing. People don't watch the show because the premise is designed around little girls.

However the show itself is quality for a children's show in the same vein as the Powerpuff Girls and whatnot. Some fans saying it's the second coming of Christ in the form of cartoons are off their rockers.

All your fetish images are posted with disappearing ink, they last less than 5 minutes apiece.

It's cool, I accept you even if I don't agree with your sexualization of the ponies. Some people like that kind of stuff, and who am I to judge you if you like to keep a collection of pics like your previously posted pony heads appearing out of a monkey's genetalia? I've seen fetishes that are odder than that.

Has any fan in this nearly thousand post thread done that? It's a funny show that makes us smile with goodhearted humor. Sure, some people like Otrebor have some odd kinks and enjoy collecting pony porn, but they are by far the exception and not the rule.

This is amusing to you? Thats kind of sad.

Indeed, its to make em better/worse. Ill edit what i want and erase em. Its weird that it gets you to write a response about it. Like I have some standards to live up to or that a forum reputation is ever so important.

calm down, i had a better idea. A Monkey with its genitalia censored by mlp.

Umm wow...I go for work today, and this thread goes down to shit. Ranging from ponylove, to some furries trying to justify their fetish, and only a few decent responses in this thread related to the subject. Mama Robotnik and Ikael...I thank you for giving me such great responses from the two sides of the spectrums, but I've decided that on GAF there is simply no reason amongst these two sides to warrant an entire topic about it. Both sides are pretty fucking terrible and lack any sense of reason whatsoever.

I wonder what this thread would be like if "faggot" and "gay" weren't banned insults on GAF.

I hope a mod locks this thread. I'm officially out. I have no interest in this topic anymore, and I'm sure most people here feel the same.

I've seen a few posters cite is an example of exemplary character writing and development.

That's rather different than calling the show the second coming of Christ, isn't it?
 
I try to be open-minded, but I just don't get it.

I've seen my fair share of clips, and FiM seems to be a very, very good show - by the standards of cartoons created to sell toys to little girls. But it is still a cartoon created primarily to sell toys to little girls, and it's very much written on that level. I just can't see the all-ages appeal that other cartoons beloved by adult male Internet nerds have, including Flapjack, Adventure Time, and (for that matter) Powerpuff Girls.

Perhaps its more of a Peter Pan complex than a furry fetish. Just guessing here..
