I have seen a few YouTube users comment on Dr wolf in a negative way due to this. Some even felt that they annoyed DrWolf and were saddened by their encounter when they met him even if in reality that was not the case and its just due to how he comes off sometimes.

DrWolf is a popular Brony analyst on YouTube. He has some decent content and has a unique way of presenting his material. However since going to conventions and even personally meeting DrWolf, I have met a good amount of bronies that find his personality abit strange and some due to his personality thought he was being rude to them even if he truly was not its just how he comes off. From personally meeting DrWolf in person, it does feel as if I am in a video of his meaning, he literally talks to you like he is taking in his videos. Some of his mannerisms like in his video sometimes come off as he is rude or just weird but in reality from my understanding its just his personality but if I did not understand him that well I can understand why some bronies may think this.

What are your thoughts on DrWolf and if you met him at a convention what was your take on your encounter with him?

Since my last post in this thread my Hot Topic has not had one piece of mlp merchandise for months. Yet they still continue to carry things from shows that have been on for awhile and others that have not such as Pokemon, Adventure Time, Black Butler, and Stephen Universe. Its really saddening.

I noticed both of these with Andrea, good idea for sure. Also I saw some bronies go in for a hug as Andrea was sitting down after a photo, it was quite awkward for sure as she backed off while sitting as it give sless reaction time compared to standing when you can move away. Its one thing to request a hug politely, but when a stranger in general just goes in for a hug its quite weird.

Just curious besides our views on how Andrea Libman has every right to reject a hug and needing her space from staggers, I am just curious if anybody else personally experienced this before or knew anyone else who dealt with this "rejection" before. How did you or the person feel and did you eventually not take it personally?

I noticed in many photos in which a fan puts their hand around her, her smile seems less compared to other photos she has with fans. She usually hugs younger kids or teens especially if they are females though, did she hug your daughter as well or back off with a brohoof?

I actually saw some cringe worthy encounters on line and could feel the embarrassment. A few bronies did not even ask and went in for a hug after a photo, Andrea had to put her hands out or back out a bit and gave them a brohoof. As they walked away you could see the sadness and embarrassment on their face.

For me, I am not judging her, I am just happy I picked up on it to avoid the embarrassment of being "rejected" but in reality its just why she is. I am very appreciative that she is so sweet and even she remembered me from over a year ago, when i walked up to her for an autograph, she even remembered and our last encounters conversation, without me bringing it up. I guess many bronies little strange due to the characters she plays and personality being bubbly and sweet that she would love to give hugs. Compared to some other VA's she seemed like the one who would loves hugs and such.

At Bronycon and other conventions I attended all of the VIP'S and VA's seemed to either give tons of hugs to many bronies who wanted it. Maybe except those who were really sweaty, smelly or rude, but that was rare. However, at many on the Cons I went to I would over hear many people felt horrible that Andrea Libman would not give hugs when requested and would kindly reject them and give them a brohoof. Kind of like how Howie Mandel the comedian hates being touched by other people and only gives fist bumps. When I heard about this I did not even bother asking as I felt I would just get kindly rejected too. When I got her autograph again this year although she even remembered me from last con and was sweet as usual, I did not even bother asking for a hug. What was even strange is that when I put my hand out to shake her hand she said, she can do brohoofs but not handshakes. I went along with as it was no issue but some others found it strange. I saw many people on line try to do the same and even try to give her hugs on kind request, but she declined and many people felt bummed out by it. Some bronies who are really into the show said they felt like they were being rejected by Pinkie Pie or Fluttershy and were depressed. The only people she would hug were young children. I figured she is just that type of person who does not like to much physical contact with strangers. I could understand her reasoning more if some bronies who are smelly or very out there that might be the reason why she would not hug them, but bronies that dressed nice and showered she refused to hug. For me it was not to bad as I understood why she may not have done this, but to many others they felt rejected and upset. Although she was sweet as always, she came off to some bronies as being rejected by her. There was a rumor going around the con that if she is seen in public outside of a convention by a brony, she tries to hide herself from them, to avoid being spotted or associated them. I am not sure how credible that rumor is but I do know why she may not want to give hugs out or even handshakes to strangers. Does anybody else know more about this or have been "rejected" by Andrea Libman for a hug.
