SOHCAHTOA

Because an anime is a totally valid and stable source for forming a point in an argument. I don't even know what to say about the math thing. How does that relates to anything I said? And we don't know, but it's more likely that he's simply a douche than it is that he's pretending to be a douche. Here is something for you to think about: when two people propose different things in an argument, it is up to whoever came with the extraordinary claim to prove that he is right. In our case, the ordinary claim is, "Blueblood is exactly how we see him in the show". The extraordinary claim is "Blueblood was just pretending to be a douche". It makes for a good headcanon in my opinion, but it's easier to believe that there's nothing about him other than what we saw. So, I win by default in this last argument. Anything else?

Ok, now you're just being ridiculous. That is not stereotypes. Nobility is not a race, a religion, a sex or gender. It's a responsability. And we're not saying "he has to act like that because that's how nobles acts", we're saying "he has to act like that because it's how nobles should act". Think about it. He's a prince, he holds a position in the government. Even if he's just part of a comitee where they vote for new laws, he still has a responsability, and by what we have seen if there's one thing he's not is responsible. Would you want to live in a country with a president that's just a spoiled brat? Like North Korea? For the last time, stop comparing the two. Discord is a reality-warping chaos spirit who's a villain, Blueblood is just that douche you wouldn't invite to your birthday party, or any party for that matter, he's so obnoxious you just want to pretend he doesn't exist. Like you. Full Spectrum didn't say one needed to be gentlemanly or ladylike to be liked, he said a member of nobility should. You can't compare the Mane 6 with Fancypants, or Celestia, or Blueblood. The part about swag was a joke by him, and it was just in answer to you, who was the first to use that word. The fact that you tried attacking a joke tells me that you really are ignoring everything you see is right and attacking blindly everything you don't understand. And Spectrum is right: you won't let anyone change your mind. Everyone can see. I would have stopped in "ridiculous", but since that wasn't enough characters I decided to show you my thoughts. You know, I've never seen anyone as obnoxious as you. Most people would simply have given up by this point, but you takes the cake. Instead of giving up, you just keep ignoring every proof that you are wrong and attacking everything people say that has nothing to do with the discussion at hand, making you look more and more pathetic with each word you type. But to tell the truth, I, of all people enjoy a good debate, even agains't an adversary so pitiful as you. So, c'mon. Answer. This amuses me greatly. You'll just be giving me more opportunities to prove you wrong. EDIT: On another hand, I seem to be letting my evil genius escape. Since the thread creator doesn't seem to be able to come with a convincing argument, I suggest we lock this thread. Of course, that's mighty self-centered of me. But as long as I am allowed to come here, I'll just keep throwing wood and alcohol at the flames, and scream "WAR!".

XD 's cool bro. Can't wait fer more :3 Circuits... no you know what. I was gonna say that you're annoying, and that pride, even when merited, is still a flaw. But I dunno, I think I would be much of a prick if I really said that. Eh, 's jus' that you sound snob. You probably didn't meant to sound that way.

1) She's tomboyish. That's not acting as a Stallion. 2) Pinkie Pie acts as a child, but differently than Blueblood. Don't pretend you don't know this. 3) BECAUSE THEY'RE VILLAINS GODDANMIT!!! I've already said this once, so stop ignoring me. Discord was bad, but he was fun to watch, and we didn't actually see him do anything directly bad to anypony (such as holding them like puppets or throwing them in pits of fire, as it was implied he'd do), and no one likes King Sombra. I mean, he was an awesome villain and all, but he wasn't fun to watch. I'd say he only has more fans than Blueblood because he was more important to the plot. They're not hated because, as villains, what non-villains would be hated for, they're loved. The situation kinda flips upside down when the character is of opposite allignment. We hate Blueblood because he's not a villain, but has all the characteristics of a proper antagonist. I've said that a thousand times already, I should stop repeating myself but you don't seem to be paying attention.

1) Agreed, he should not change. He should appear antagonizing a character in a new episode though. 2) He's not bad, he's just douchey. Mares don't like douchey stallions.

Awesome man! You're awesome! This is awesome! You're a genius, you know so much about so many things. I like all of these things you talk about, but I don't know much about them. But seeing all this is just... awesome! (that's the only word I know to describe this) Can't wait to see more

Dude. Just... don't. He understands it's just a show. We all do. He's no trying ro crack some secret code that will reveal the ark of the covenant, he's just doing this because he likes doing it. If the show producers really did make a conlang, then why not decode? And please, tell me why it's worth translating Klingon but not Equestrian? Really, that's some poor faith in bronies, and a disrespect to the show. We overthink the small parts because it's fun. Simple as that. If you don't like it, instead of telling others to stop having fun just ignore it. And please, type properly. This is not msn or facebook, typing like that only makes you look like a fool.

As of Magic Duel, Trixie seems to be getting the hang of this humility thing... in her own boastful way. And I like the comparison with Kuzco. Yeah, I guess they do have a lot of things in common. But Kuzco is so hammy and so damn fun to watch. The show writers did their best to make Blueblood unlikable.

So... awesome! VBDSOUIGBSOFJISDHBGNOIHBVBAILGUGIBBERISHFVMA.BVWSKHF.WSE BFVHVLRGBCJHF This is so epic awesome! You're awesome dude! I wish I could help, but I'm no cryptographer. But you're doing an awesome work, keep at it! Also, I'm a little surprised. Not that you are doing this, just that it took someone so long to try to decode the symbols that appear in the first shot of the first episode. I mean, The Legend Of Zelda fans cracked the Skyward Sword Hylian so fast, one would think us bronies would have done it faster. And that's what I love about the brony community: there's people of all kinds here. For every sport, there is a brony athlete, for every science a brony scientist, for every art a brony artist. Which is why, if the fandom is together, we can do anything. And I think we can discard the poster to the Talent Show as an animator being lazy. It doesn't mean the symbols are gibberish. One last thing: a language made for a piece of fiction is called a constructed language, or conlang for short. People who make conlangs are called conlangers, like Marc Okrand (Klingon) and Paul Frommer (Na'vi). EDIT: This. I agree completely. Although we're not sure yet if it is just gibberish, so you should keep trying to decode it Although it seems to be so little material to help you decode it. Gibberish or not, maybe you should just make a language.

Are... are you sure? You could die from so much idiocy together! I salute your bravery, sir. May you succeed or go to whatever version of paradise you believe in.

As I said, self-centered or not, the point is that we couldn't see much of him. If we saw more of this magnificent egomaniac, he'd have a bigger fanbase. Also, about people don't liking self-centered ponies: what about Trixie? She's self-centered in a different way, but still is.

Because they're villains, and, to quote TV Tropes, Evil Is Cool. And Blueblood wasn't even evil. Everyone loves the bad guys. Forget the bad things they did and focus on the personality: Discord is what everyone wishes they could be (capable of doing whatever they wanted, or simply doing things that seem to not make sense) Nightmare Moon isn't much, but let's remember that she doesn't has any fans. There are Luna fans, and then there are Luna fans that like Nightmare Moon's appearance, but Nightmare Moon doesn't has any true fanbase. On the other hand, Prince Charmless bad actions were very forgettable (he wasn't being evil. From the worst point of view, he was being rude) but unlike the other two he doesn't has a captivating personality that makes people like him. He's rude, annoying, and worst of all, thinks he's behavior is completely normal and should be tolerated by others. As I view it, there's nothing wrong with not having any manners, as long as you acknowledge that you have no manners. But I'm not saying he's a terrible character. The problem is that he was only in a few scenes of a single episode. I think he'd have lots more fans if his personality was just expanded upon, if he just appeared again in a new episode. Really, he doesn't even ned to become a better character, we just need more characterization to like him. So what he's a snob stuck-up, if he appears in any episode as an antagonist he'd be cool. Like Trixie. If Snips and Snails hadn't waken the Ursa, she'd have been just an egocentric showpony, and she'd have as many fans as Blueblood. But because we get to see more of her personality, as consequences of having to face the Ursa Minor, she becomes likable. To summarize, we dislike Prince Blueblood because (ironically enough) he was just a tool for the plot to move on, rather than a full fledged character. If we saw more of him we'd like him (I think I, at least, would). Ending thought: Discord did have a reason for what he did: for teh lulz. King Sombra on the other hand was pure evil.

Wa-the-wa-the-that was there?!?! I never saw that before! Nightmare Moon on the hourglass... did that really happened? That really was on the show?

Simple. He's an ass. Ok, all your points are at least mildly valid. But there are some things... First of all, wheter he was nobility or not is no excuse. No one should be that bad. Second, consider that he is the unique in his douchebaggery. No one is quite as douche as him. Not even Upper Crust and Jet Setter were this bad. But finally, what I think is the reason people seem to hate him the most for is the fact that he seems to be completely unaware that what he does is wrong. You can just shrug off generic douches for being bad people, but when someone is bad and they don't know that... I don't know about other people, but there's nothing I hate more than people who don't understand why what they're doing is wrong. One should know the difference between good and wrong, even if mildly so. But Blueblood doesn't see good or bad, he sees "good for me" and "bad for me". He sees everyone that is not himself as simple tools and toys. Thoughs on this: * A fanfic showing Blueblood learning proper manners would be awesome. * "Tools and Toys" sounds like it would be an awesome villain song.

Hmm... to tell the truth there never was anything I took too much time to figure it out. While I've never did any research on the subject, I already had enough superficial knowledge about horses to understand why the place was called Equestria, and everything else I've learned way before formally joining the fandom, when I'd just look at MLP:FIM memes online. It was then that I learned the characters names, the concept of a "background pony", and many other things. I guess something that could count is why Canterlot is named that way. I understand Fillydelphia, Manehatten, and Ponyville is obvious, but is Canterlot named after some horse based pun or anything? Because I still haven't figured it out. All I know is that it sounds like Camelot.
