Personally, I won't stop being a brony until the show is cancelled or I'm dead but with that said change can be a good thing if used correctly. It's a show guys, try your best to roll with it but if it bothers you that much then whatever choice you make is yours and yours alone. We support you either way but just hate to see you leave. Love and tolerate every pony! <3

The only form of balance that I'm concerned about is social status really. Twlight = Princess while Applejack = farm tender? Rainbow Dash = Wonderbolt (eventually) while Fluttershy = Vetrinarian of sorts? That's the only balance I'm worried about. As long as each pony stays true to themselves and remain unique I think Alicorn Princess Twlight Sparkle will work itself out in time. She earned it every pony, remember that even if you don't agree I do hope that you can see that. Love and tolerate every pony! <3

I have seen some come and go but my friends have stuck with MLP through thick and thin. I, along with many other bronies are still here. If some pony decides to leave well then it's their choice and theirs alone, who's to judge? Everyone is entitled to their opinion. I just happen to support the idea and find it rather unfortunate that so many would leave behind such a great show and fandom just because of a few choices they don't personally agree with. Granted, I'm somewhat concerned for the longevity of the show myself but I'm sure it'll work itself out in time.

I have no idea if Twlight's transition will be permanent but I do know that she has earned it and deserves it rightfully so. Now, reading some of these posts have got me concerned for the longevity of the show; i,e. Ponies equality formula no longer applies for example: Twlight = Princess/Applejack = Farm tender? I can see the problem if its left undealt with: Rainbow Dash (eventually) = Wonderbolt/Fluttershy = Veterinarian of sorts? It goes on and on if you're that serious about the series but Hasbro and DhX Media have made it this far I wouldn't doubt them now. Remember, even if you don't care for the idea or the character remember the source and why. Love and tolerate every pony! <3

To answer the above^ question, I would have to say I support Princess Twlight Sparkle being promoted to a member of the royal family. I mean, how has she not earned it? By showing through for her friends time and time again and being completely selfless. I'd say she deserves it and has earned it rightfully so. Don't get me wrong, I love music but I do feel like the majority of the episode consisted of just one too many songs and not too much dialogue which gave it a 'rushed' feel which no pony wants to see the mane 6 leave in such a hurry right? Rainbow Dash is still my favorite with Twlight Sparkle trailing just right behind, she's gonna take some getting used to with wings and I think that's the problem. We've become so used to Twlight being grounded that that's who we've known for so long that its hard to witness her change so fast. Almost like the same feeling when you're a parent and your child grows up. This is debatable though and everyone is entitled to their own opinion, this is just mine. Take it or leave it. Much love every pony! <3

Well, me and everyone who still supports the show and everything it has to offer are still here! >;D Alicorn Twilight was coming from S1 and I have mad respect for Twlight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash for setting the standard. I'm sorry if those aren't the characters that you like but is that REALLY something to leave such a great fandom and community for? If so, it's their choice and theirs alone. They're always welcome back in my opinion and there's always fresh faces coming into the mix so don't worry OP the fandom is still VERY much alive ^_~ as for Equestria Girls, personally it has no impact on Friendship Is Magic and I'm glad that's all I'm going to say about that. Keep calm and brony on and continue to spread the message of love and tolerance /) <3

Rainbow Dash ~ Words cannot explain what feelings race through me when I see such an active, yet graceful pony with such an additude it would even make Oryx feel like he is selling himself short. She has boosted my confidence through the roof and is very motivating to me I'm the fact that it doesn't matter what it is you want to do so much if you go out there and get it! Words are cheap so Rainbow Dash backs her words up whichever way she can whether its performing back-breaking stunts at lightning speed or saving her friends from certain peril. Your shining colors and tomboyish female personality are a sight to behold and if you were here on Earth you'd bet your wings I'd come to meet ya and cheer you on! You set the standard for your friends with the Sonic Rainboom not once but twice, and even though you do like to brag, it's cute... In an odd quirky sort of way ^_~ Rainbow Dash you are so awesome! Much much love and respect for just being you <3

@TheBigBadMoon: To answer your question, My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic has changed my life seemingly for the better and nothing else. To further prove my point, I was dealing with a lot of things that involve my personal life and the choices I was making. I was beginning to binge drink due to mild depression of not being able to find a job out here in California and stay up until 10:00 AM until I would pass out from peer exhaustion. With no job, living in the middle of the desert (literally) with my sister, and not having my parents and just recently having been cheated on by my ex-girlfriend I really wasn't doing too well and negative thoughts of my abusive past started to flare up. I was beginning to feel worthless and useless and like a freeloader. Then, I came across the show and I have to say it is the most refreshing thing I've seen in the last few years concerning fandoms. Being open-minded, the stigma didn't bother me one bit and the lessons that are taught become minor to increasingly significant as you delve deeper into the series. It is all a matter of perspective but in the end, you decide whether or not someone has helped or hindered you. And all I can say is thank you Hasbro and thank you to everyone involved in MLP:FIM because as a new member into adulthood it keeps my spirits up and reminds me why I want to keep doing what I'm doing and why good things are worth fighting for. I now have a job and I'm in college, an active fan of the series and a MUCH happier individual then I was 2-3 years ago. That's my story, I hope it helped. Thank you for reading and much love everyone <3

Listen dude, being a supportive member and being able to keep up with the show enough to talk about it and spread its message of love and tolerance is good enough for me at least. Sure, I write fanfiction and do music covers (my latest being " A Canterlot Wedding" on keyboard) but that doesn't mean you are useless, it just shows how much you actually care about the community, thank you and brony on fellow brother or pegasister /)

I feel psyched when I finally find exactly what it is that I'm looking for! I was at the mall last week with my friends at Hot Topic and started making the plushies kiss and dance lol 'JUST to make the moment even more awkward' I went to pay for my Rainbow Dash headphones, Rainbow Dash vinyl figure, and MLP trading cards and looked the cashier straight in the eye and said: "Hey, look all this stuff is nice but it's gonna have to be about 20% cooler if I'm actually going to drop bits on it." He laughed so hard and gave me a 15% discount! haha it was a great day indeed
