I have watched about a season of it.
Not at my will, of course, but like I said, it's a good show nevertheless.
Its not relatable, but if i had a daughter, i would let her watch it. If my dad watched it, i would be suprised

I wouldn't call myself a brony anymore, but I don't understand, like, half of your points in that post.

The fanbase isn't dying, it's generally just moved to other places (even then there weren't that many people on this forum who were interested). "The show is incorrect with a lot of casual things"? Um, what?

Also, "Pointless media"? What do you mean, the fandom documentaries/TV mentions/etc.? If so, yeah, that's stupid, but if you're talking about fanmade stuff, you could apply that to literally any fanbase ever.

For that matter, the "OC ponies" and "Fluffle Puff" bit fall under fanmade media, why are they important enough to get their own heading?

Probably because there are a lot. Like yours, for example.

It's not as if that's a problem exclusive to the MLP fandom, so I still don't see why that should be a big deal.

I feel the same way about the GMod part, but not quite as much. Easy-to-use bases exist, so...

That's certainly true, but it's hardly restricted to the MLP fandom. I highly doubt all 748,000 Let it Go parodies on Youtube aren't pointless.
Technos72 wrote:- OC Ponies spam the Gmod Workshop. It seems to creep me out
I can't really respond to that as I've never used the Gmod Workshop.

This is one I know isn't true. I remember reading several articles which suggest the fandom is growing.

Er... I'm not sure what you mean. Could you maybe elaborate?
Technos72 wrote:- Who the HELL is this Fluffle Puff? Where did she come from?
I have no idea. :lol:

Yeah, all fandoms are terrible.

that doesn't make bronies not-terrible, that's not how logic works

What I mean is that that argument can be applied to any fandom, so criticizing one for it is kinda pointless.

(To clarify, I'm not looking for an argument in this thread to begin with, I'm just curious about Technos' reasoning)
