Hi,I'm a Brony from China.These days,pony cards are very famous among children in China.You may think this is a very good thing, and I thought so at first. However, at present, the fact seems to be just the opposite.A lot of young children bought them just to follow the trend, and some of them don't really love MLP. For example, they like one Pony, but they don't like other Ponies. so they just throw it away when they get what they don't want, and even make some insults to the role.What's even crazier is that the scraps of paper made from MLP screenshots can even sell for tens of thousands of yuan. Because most of them are immature, they use their parents' money to buy them, and sometimes they spend a lot of money.I think it's normal for children to like playing cards, and I understand it, but it's really worrying that some children spend too much and have behaviors similar to "gambling"These days, I often see this kind of children's excessive consumption behavior in the news, and news reports often write "My little pony”cards, and even seem to focus on" MLP ",but I think this has nothing to do with MLP, it is a means adopted by some manufacturers to make money.What worries me is that people outside Brony will think that MLP is not a good animation to some extent when they see this situation, and they may also think that Bronies are the people who play and sell cards like this.Because of this, I am even a little afraid to introduce MLP to my friends. Originally, MLP was considered by most people who didn't understand it as an animation just for children, but now the misunderstanding is more serious.However, there seems to be a bright side, which greatly improves the popularity of MLP, and if some people really understand MLP in depth, they may also understand its beauty and become a member of Bronies.But I think it will do more harm than good. So what do you think of it? Is a good thing or a bad thing？

I'm coming to MLP forum for the first time. I hope you Pony can help me a lot.

The first time I really started watching MLP was last August. It was my brother who took me to watch it at that time.The crazy thing is that we basically watched the whole G4 in one month.We were all deeply attracted by MLP.So much so that we even regret watching it too fast.I am very grateful to MLP, it made a big difference to my life.
