Well there is nothing to suggest that the changelings, and the name of their leader weren't already known to the ponies before the siege of Canterlot.

I think I have to go with the scene where the CMC got their cutie marks. That scene was a long time coming, and was just so amazing to me when it finally happened.

I have no problem with brony lingo. I can see how some people might think it is a little cringe worthy, but to me its all in good fun.

No one has really had problems with me being a Brony. I wear a pony button every day at work at Walmart, and while at first I was sure some of the lovely people that frequent Walmart would be an asshole about it, no one has. As far as I can tell, it really seems like most people just don't care, so as long as you don't make a big deal out of it, most other people wont either.

I would have to go with Glass of Water. I really like John DeLancie as a VA, but that song didn't sound very good, especially since he was trying to sing it as if he was sick.

I feel that Sunset Shimmer had the worst reformation. Being blasted into goodness by the elements of harmony does not make for a good reformation. Heck I'm not really sure that it can be counted as a reformation at all, as she wasn't reformed, her evil personality was just overwritten with a good one. With Luna you can at least say that she may have been under the influence of dark magic and the elements dispelled that, but you can't even use that excuse with Sunset.

He did seem like a bit of a jerk. However this Shining Armor grew up in a different world, and is a different person from the Shining Armor we know from the pony world, so I don't think it is that surprising that he would act differently than pony Shining Armor.

Well, I really hate his videos, and in some ways I am happy to see them get taken down. That being said I can't be happy about a fan animation being taken down via a copyright strike. Even If I personally think the content is awful, I think any fan made animation should have a right to exist.

I think at first I thought Bronies were just trolls, who posted pictures of ponies in forums and other places just to annoy people. Then I when I found out that the fandom was actually real, I suppose I thought it was a bit odd, but didn't really have any feelings one way or another.

I can't say that I really disprove any Brony stereotypes. I am an asocial, nerdy person who generally spends all day lurking in his room, and I have no problem with that.

It feels to me like they got their cutie marks at a good time. I don't see why they would disband. The fact that they all got matching cutie marks, and still have a common goal suggests that they won't be disbanding anytime soon. Besides, they are friends. They won't just stop being friends because they achieved the goal that originally brought them together.

I'm kinda surprised at how close this poll is. It always seems like Luna is overwhelmingly more popular. I'm glad to see Celestia keeping up. It does seem like people tend to judge her unfairly, so its good to see that she is getting some appreciation. and Luna wouldn't want her big sis to feel unapreciated!

I think that most of the people that try to "convert" people into becoming a Brony do have good intentions. They have found something that love, and I think they assume that everyone else would love that thing too if they could just understand what it is that they see in it. Problem is that some people don't seem to understand that different people like different things, and when you try to force someone to get into something they aren't interested in, it will likely have the opposite effect.

Being a nocturnal, asocial person myself I have to say that Luna is my favorite. :comeatus: I still like Celestia though, and I really hope she eventually gets an episode in the show.

I actually think my favorite reformed villain is Starlight. Although many seem to disagree, I think that Starlights backstory with Sunburst provided a perfectly good explanation as to how she became who she is. Being separated from her only friend due to him getting a cutie mark led her to associate cutie marks with driving people apart, and colored her perception of cutie marks going forward. This eventually led to the creation of her ideology of equality, and her forming her cutie markless society in order to bring ponies together, and try to spare them the trauma she endured as a child. The Mane 6 intervening in her town, in my opinion only strengthened her views about cutie marks seperating people, because as soon as the Mane 6 came to her town bringing with them their ideology that clashed with her own, she ended up losing everything she had worked for, and everything she cared about once again. She then lashed out at Twilight in order to make her understand the pain she had caused her, but when Twilight demonstrated to Starlight what would happen if she continues down this path Starlight finally begins to question herself. In the end Starlight chose to reform herself. She wasn't forced to be reformed like many of the other villains. Starlight was able to fight Twilight to a stalemate, and if she wished she could have continued on her path. When Twilight shows her the devastation that her actions could lead to she questions whether or not what she believes is truly what is best for Equestria, and ultimately decides to try to make herself a better pony As far as the worst, I'm going to go with Luna, and Sunset. While I do love both of these characters, being zapped good by the elements of harmony doesnt make for a very interesting reformation story.
