Worst brony situation


Brony Lounge

Recommended Posts

Toys in one hand, behind my back, almost getting caught out. The only reason my worst situation is one where is didn't get caught is because I haven't (to my knowledge) been caught out yet.

The entire 2013 year easily. Seriously you had the likes of:

 

1. Twilicorn controversy.

2. Fighting is Magic receiving a C&D from Hasbro.

3. Down with Molestia controversy.

4. EQG's being first revealed

5. Flash Sentry being first revealed.

6. The Unicon fiasco as Megas mentioned.

 

Seriously, no year was ever as caustic for the brony fandom than the 2013 year.

There is a thread with a similar topic that has been around for a while: https://mlpforums.com/index.php?app=forums&module=moderate&section=moderate&t=38902&f=6&page=&auth_key=86803d498ec0e91326633400bd7b2bd4&_fromTopic=1&do=60

 

I was going to merge the two but so far this one has steered in a somewhat different direction, whereas the other is about awkward Brony moments. I'll leave this thread as is for now but I may merge them in the future if the discussion goes that way.

My worst nightmare is being *this* close to saying "anypony", or "everypony" (instead of the normal ones) or revealing too much information about the show (e.g. I once said "What if so-and-so liked playing with My Little Pony toys?", I might say something like "Especially Doctor Whooves and Princess Cadence" and something). I haven't been caught yet, but I might be about to.

If we're talking about MLP drama, there's still Derpygate(which I feel is significantly worse than all of those other things except for maybe EQG), MMDW, Ted Anderson/Reflections/IDW in general, Lauren Faust leaving,Unicon, and takedowns of various brony vids/channels

True. there were dramas that may have been worse individually than the ones I listed, which I need to add Unicon to that list too, but considering how 2013 was infamous in the brony fandom for how much crap and drama that one year caused, if I were to say if there was any year in the fandom for a brony to avoid, 2013 would be at the top of my list.

I joined in 2013, so it took me a bit to figure out that those weren't popular occurrences.

You should've seen how EQD, /mlp/ board, and even here reacted to those I listed. It was nothing but huge infighting by those who wanted to give the series a chance or those who hated the changes and called the series dead for it. We've lost many fans over that year. The other controversies like Unicon and Fighting is Magic receiving a C&D really took out alot of vigor from the fandom for how all of those were happening to it.

I see you've all decided to ignore me.

I apologize than. What I would like to say that for your case, it is best to try to gauge just how tolerant the folks around you are of such things as like any individual, different people respond differently to somethings. I was fortunate my parents were cool with my interest in ponies. Your folks may not be so try your best to keep your privacy hidden until you're certain they're going to accept it.

My parents know I watch it and that I have an interest in it, but I do not intend on *ever* telling them I actually ENJOY it. One of the ways I practice this is by watching the Cinemare Sins series by littleshyfim with my family.

 

So while I'm not telling them I like it until I'm sure, they already know I watch the show. Thanks for trying though.

Hmm, if the peace you desire has been attained, than I hope it continues for you.
