ZomBrony 347 June 30, 2014 Author Share June 30, 2014 Actually. I don't think that in order to be a part of a fandom you must follow any rules. If those people attack you, you must fight back. It's how life works. The weakest will get crushed. If you let it pass by tomorow it might be something more serious (like getting attacked and raped/robed) and you won't do nothing just because you don't want to fight on their level. Well you'll obviously fight back for something more serious like that. But hating the haters is ridiculous. That makes about as much sense as hating weather reporters because it rained.

Shanks 10,816 June 30, 2014 Share June 30, 2014 and you won't do nothing just because you don't want to fight on their level. There are some cases where you have to fight back but with haters and troll the only way to do that is to do nothing, just let them fire off their hate and let them get bored and move onto someone else. 1 Rarity Get's Cockroaches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horsy 193 June 30, 2014 Share June 30, 2014 Well you'll obviously fight back for something more serious like that. But hating the haters is ridiculous. That makes about as much sense as hating weather reporters because it rained. It doesn't. Those haters leave a psych scar. They can ruin your emotion or something like that. Weather reporters report the weather. The weather can be good or bad. You are basically saying that I should hate a person who warns me for a potential danger. KEEP CALM AND EAT CUPCAKES.

Moonbacon 384 June 30, 2014 Share June 30, 2014 because the hater isn't in a fandom with the amount of creativity that bronies have and they must hate on bronies creativity to make themselves feel better than everyone else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadowPirateX 600 June 30, 2014 Share June 30, 2014 I can understand why some people dislike the bad ponifications (which I do too), but I can never wrap my head around why ponification in general is such a big deal. I guess it's just those typical butthurt reactions. 1 "Freedom is the right of all sentient beings" ~ Optimus Prime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crisahys 149 July 1, 2014 Share July 1, 2014 I think that ponification bothers people because they couldn't understand and are afraid of something being made in a different way. It's sort of an equivalent to making a denomic version of Barack Obama to them. They just couldn't stand anything different, so they continue to act out about it, that's where the anti-brony trolls come out. 1 Link to my OC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megas 27,679 July 1, 2014 Share July 1, 2014 (edited) Simply because some people think it looks dumb. A lot of those people are usually anti-bronies Personally I think they can be rather fun and amusing(though of course there are some that can be rather...stupid) Edited July 1, 2014 by Big Boss 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZomBrony 347 July 1, 2014 Author Share July 1, 2014 Well every hater and troll is different. So is every victim. 'So is every victim' This applies perfectly. That isn't how I react to haters, but it's understandable that others will. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That should be obvious to me by now, this is always the reason things are hated. But I just can't understand it so it's hard for me to accept. Well I used to be a hater, so I should know. There's really no real reason. But come on guys,not EVERYTHING needs to be ponified. Yes it does. o3o x3 We ponify things because we like to, that's enough reason to ponify everything to me.

Ribbonfree 2,383 July 1, 2014 Share July 1, 2014 (edited) Just think of the thing you don't really want to see in life. For some people that thing becomes MLP stuff.

Tigerpop198 696 July 1, 2014 Share July 1, 2014 There is only so many times you can hear "everypony" before it starts to get annoying. There is no point in butchering the English language now, is there? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zygen 6,066 July 1, 2014 Share July 1, 2014 I guess some people do not like to see things changed in ways that they don't like. For some they feel it ruins something about that for them maybe. Others they just don't like it for a personal preference I guess. To each his own, I really don't mind it myself, and I don't mind if others don't like it, just as long as they're not really annoying about it. All my opinion, just as liking or disliking ponifications. Thanks to Gone Airbourne for the awesome sig!

Thrashy 2,800 July 1, 2014 Share July 1, 2014 (edited) Pretty simple - people who hate MLP and/or bronies see it as a personal insult whenever a character from one of their beloved fandoms is "tarnished" by being made into the very thing they hate. And you know what? I fucking love it. Keep doin' what yer doin', ponifiers. Just think of the thing you don't really want to see in life. For some people that thing becomes MLP stuff. This isn't really that difficult an application of basic human empathy. Point being? Nobody's telling them they have to like it. I don't like anime, but does that entitle me to tell others to stop drawing non-anime characters in anime form? No. Well...technically, yes, since I have the freedom of speech. But I'm also intelligent enough to realize that I do not, in fact, have the "right not to be offended", just like everybody else. The arguments of people who bitch about ponification literally amount to "stop liking what I don't like", and frankly, the only response that warrants is laughter.

irondreams 31 July 1, 2014 Share July 1, 2014 (edited) Here's a good topic for discussion.. Why does ponification bother people? It's not hurting anyone. I'm sitting here wracking my mind trying to think of any good reason that might be upsetting to someone, but I just can't. Why do you think it does? It's just annoying. I never liked it in the first place. I love ponies but when it's forced into everything it gets old fast. Of course I don't follow fanart anymore. I mean cake is good but eating cake all the time is bad for me. Edited July 1, 2014 by Iron Dawn Have a nice day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
