Looks

Considering Battlefield's support from its fans, I'd say that it isn't damaging it as much as it used to. What I find so damaging about CoD is how every single year it's magically the same game. Hell, Advanced Warfare took Titanfall's basic parkour concept and applied it to their own game... There's a lot of games that aren't really that original though. Look at Five Nights at Freddy's, you could say the same about it damaging the indie genre, but at least we can safely assume it isn't. 

Personally, I think there isn't a lot that Call of Duty can damage since at its core it's... unique for being so unoriginal. 

I don't find stereotypes to be offensive in the show, because they just ARE stereotypes. You can't ignore that Fluttershy being overly-shy sometimes is... a personal flaw. There's absolutely nothing wrong with maybe pushing in a few jokes about it; it teaches kids that shy people are... well, shy. I don't see Fluttershy being depressed 100% of the time, and I CERTAINLY wouldn't like a show where everyone is the same.

Zebras might be a reflection of African tribes; is that a problem? Why are reflections, and stereotypes suddenly incredibly discouraging against children? Sure, I can understand if it was used as an attack or an insult, I could see the problem there. But, honestly, do you REALLY think they mean it? Do you really think that kids will instantly think of 9/11 whenever they picture the Canterlot Wedding?

Sorry if I got carried away. I don't mean to start a fight; just merely a discussion.

(and no, I've barely ever taken offense to anything, despite being Hispanic)

I'm not one to delve deep into sexuality, I find it rather unnecessarily complicated to have 20+ terms for a very slight variation for some genres of sexuality, but I'd say that I'm bisexual... Heavily leaned towards, women, but definitely an interest for feminine males. 

I'm very sorry to say this, but no.

To me, she was more of a "nuisance" than an actual villain throughout the series. It never really made sense why the loss of one friend really got to her, without any other events happening.

Take a look at Big Boss from Metal Gear Solid (his "villainous" side isn't that well represented in MGS 5, but later games sort of do). The dude had to kill the only love of his life by himself(old spoiler), not to mention that he also had to kill her again (another spoiler), not to mention he also had to take out the one intelligence agency that made him what he was. 

Being a villain isn't just about losing one person and wanting to kill everyone, no. Being a villain is about following your own ideals, not caring whether they may be absolutely batshit insane or just completely immoral, you follow what you think is right. Not only that, it changes a person completely. Most of the time, a true villain is mostly scarred for life from various events, not just one, and finally leads to just purely emotional choices, thinking what he/she is doing is right. Starlight Glimmer's villain design was absolutely fantastic, but her execution was absolutely dreadful. If MLP wasn't so age-restricted, and if it could move to even more mature themes... damn. She'd make quite the villain; I can tell Hasbro/whateverwriterworksthere just shoved in the friend thing as something to make it kid friendly... which, I can't blame them, but it makes the whole villain completely bland and boring, not to mention much less relatable. 

By relatability, I mean this: If someone came to your house, killed your entire family, left you alone to live by yourself with years of loneliness... and you finally got the chance to have revenge, would you do it?

To me, at least, being a villain is purely on what you think is right... whether it may be for emotionally, power-hungry-ly, or even morally, you have to have a reason that supports your completely different... self.

Edit: Because I was a little stupid and forgot to put this in

When I meant her design was great, I meant that her former self was relatable, friendly... normal. She's not some kind of "evil" god from the underworld, or a "king from darkness" or whatever... She wasn't born to ever be "evil", if that's what you want to call it. This is why I still consider Tirek to not be such a great villain (despite his little conflict was pretty entertaining), yet seeing Starlight Glimmer to be such a wasted opportunity. Every "evil" person in history always starts off normal, just like everyone else. They're not born to be evil, much like you and I are. But, who knows? I could be, or you. It depends on what you want to be, or do.

Looks like we have something in common there then!   I've been obsessed since I was just a wee lad who at age 5 picked up a book on 'em; 12 years later and I don't think I will ever stop loving 'em!

I didn't really take much interest to them until I started playing a game called "War Thunder". Ever since, I've been branching off to many different tank games including World of Tanks and Armored Warfare. Really great games, IMO.

It's kind of difficult to compare them. At least to me, on one side, McDonald's is cheaper with good taste. Though, Wendy's is so fucking delicious but expensive... Is there a neutral option?! D:

Anything related to World War 2. And tanks.

Tanks.

Tanks.

I'd finally pay back my mother for all the shit I bought.

I feel rather hungry, bored, and... impatient. Just wished I didn't go to school tomorrow.

Most of the time it's the people themselves being stupid, and the reason you should ignore it mostly is because... well.. there really is no purpose to. Try to unwind, league of legends is a great game but it's pretty competitive, meaning that matches will be taken a lot more seriously; and hence, much like a lot of things in life, stupid people will join in to ruin the fun. Try getting used to another day, try your best to forget about that one individual, because the world is filled with despicable scum like them. 

Generally the second someone tries to say that face to face will most likely coward away, most of the time it's just kids not knowing that threatening someone on the internet is stupid. I know you're probably extremely frustrated, but you really do have to forget about him. Try distracting yourself, maybe take a nap or something

So I have a question.. Do you eat the bowl the rice is in or you eat the rice the bowl is in? It takes me 30 minutes to eat the rice bowl but only a few to eat the rice in the bowl.

I eat both, yes definitely. :pp

Big Hero 6. I liked it a little more than Frozen, at least.

Oh, and wouldn't it be a good idea to add in a poll for this thread?

Well... this might bring some controversy... 

Bugs. Fucking bugs.

Fucking. Bugs.

I hate absolutely everything about mine. Let it be the people that live there, the education, the government... There really is nothing that I like about PR, except maybe some of the food.

Everything has to be separated before I eat it. Nothing can be meshed together until I start eating. Seriously. It's a giant OCD thing I have with symmetry.

I also write with my right hand, and eat with my left hand. Though, I can't do both at the same time.

I also eat ridiculously slow, maybe taoe about 30 minutes to eat one rice bowl.

... Sure. I'll accept this. Yes.

If by watching, I guess you could also mean listening...

I am definitely a Changeling Activist. Ever since I watched A Canterlot Wedding, I was. Even for little girls, it's kind of... wrong, you could say, that by solving people's problems you just simply kill the baddies, or kick them out without knowing any motives, reasons... Anything. 

Twilight and Celestia KNEW they fed on love, so why didn't they try compromising? Sure, they were in the middle of an invasion but there were only two options the changelings had. Either die alone in the wild, cold and sleepless, or make yourself known. Scream. Let everypony know that you're being oppressed biologically. 

The changelings did what they had to do, and they haven't touched Changelings since, which is honestly quite despicable. (Episode 100 doesn't count, practically everything there wasn't canon at all.)

I think he's okay. Not exactly the most... interesting character, though. Kind of sad to be honest.

Quotes... no idea why, really.

... I've been thinking about this forever; really, I have. Such a simple subject to talk about takes me more than 2 years to fully think through...

Ponies, (in the MLP:FiM universe) have consciousness. They're sentient. They know the basics of morality; good and evil. Now, does this mean that there could be someone who dares to become deadly?

Yes. And easily, in fact. 

Considering they have a whole ARMADA, a bunch of other kingdoms surrounding Equestria... I really, really think it could be really similar to humans; just that they're only showing the outside, or the "good" part of it. Ever thought of Dora being violent? Never, because they can barely think.

Now, how violent do I really think they can get?

That's just my thought though. Not much coming off of one member out of the hundreds of thousands this website has. ^^

More or less, it should be this.

I've seen worse.

Really, Smile HD really does make me smile.
