May say on Spike and Rarity Shipping

First Spike, it too young. So, until Spike is an adult there won't be any shipping on like Shining Armor and Cadence. 

 

It might actually ruin the show...

 

'IF' Yes, it's nice to see if they finally get together. But I know from personal experience, drama will result in the pairing. Not the drama of Spike being underage, let's assume it happened when he's an adult.  The drama will be Anti Shippers and Pro shipfic writers (Despite the fact their fan fiction is another universe to the show) for someone other than Rarity going bananas. Many fans left the fandom due to them getting together. 

 

Shipping that went bad in another show, Fry and Leela in the last two seasons of Futurama. It was handled well at times, but at other times it was done horribly. Really, bad writers we had for some episodes, that didn't give a damn about continuity and making everyone confused whether Fry and Leela are together or not. The same might happen for MLP FIM. Granted, your higher budget for better writers might make this not happen.

 

Speaking of bad writers, some new writer may come along and just write a really bad episode. 

 

There was this really sad, case. Kind of Flash Sentry case taken to the extreme. A Futurama fan, I lost their mind when Fry and Leela got together. The person loved 'Fry', they thought he was real and went insane. The person kept spamming the Futurama fan sites and even harassing writers on Twitter. Basically saying 'I want Fry not to be with Leela, I will make you all pay.' (quite possibly wanting to kill the Futurama writers) The person even written many fan fictions of themselves being shipped with Fry.

I assume Spike is 14-15ish, and Rarity 18-20ish. There really isn't that big of an age gap there, so yes, I do ship them. I also ship Rarijack a little. 

 

And Rarity and Spike aren't together, last I checked, though I may have missed something. Where did you get that idea?

Which fandom exactly? Also, there are always idiots who feel the need to insutl those that don't agree with them. Canon has little to do with it.

So? Shipping worked well for Kim Possible.

I edited my first post. To say 'if'.

The Futurama fandom, and let me tell lots of fan girls and other crazies went even crazier.

 

They couldn't stand Fry and Leela getting together, because it messed with their OTP and some other stupid stuff.

The ship-fic writers will b**** and complain all they want, but nothing will come of it. They'll either move on to other ships, or continue shipping who they want to ship. Since when has show canon stopped them from coming up with all sorts of insane ideas?

 

If MLP were more like...Glee, or The Walking Dead, or Days of Our Lives, or any type of show where the show's direction seriously hinged on character relationships, then there would be a problem for everyone if it affected how entertaining the show was. I think that's what it comes down to at the end of the day.
