Silver Letter 1,832 October 17, 2016 Share October 17, 2016 Yeah, I thought that this was the true feelings from those who run the show about those fans not in their target audience. Their hostility is unfortunate but noted. Silver Letter!!!

Hazard Time 1,127 October 17, 2016 Share October 17, 2016 Honestly, while his words might be abrasive, I stand whole-heartedly with Jim. A good number of people I've seen who felt that this season fell flat feel that way because their expectations weren't met, and this sort of entitlement is clearly on display with Moliminous' tweet. While MLP might have been gendered towards girls and Lauren Faust did say it was her intention for this show to be enjoyed by all, some people don't seem to understand what this means. They expect to see episodes tackling serious social issues like gender, sexuality, and racism, but I'm sorry, that's not going to happen in a TV-Y show. Is it so hard to enjoy a show for what it is instead of haranguing the writers for not writing the show you want to watch? 4 Roleplaying for Eight Years and Counting!

BastementSparkle 20,335 October 17, 2016 Share October 17, 2016 The original post from Sabrina mentions fans calling names and attacking them, that's the group Jim says "Fuck em" too, not to fans in general. The person who responds to them calling out the fact that this show is made with little girls in mind as an admission of low quality isn't exactly being the nicest about it. While Jim telling him to go fuck himself certainly isn't the best response, I don't think this view of his here applies to the entire fanbase like people are taking it as. I think his response could be better, but I get where he's coming from. 7 Twilight is best pony. Why hello MLPForums! What have ya been up to?

Ziggy + Angel + Rain 11,306 October 17, 2016 Share October 17, 2016 I guess this is the effect the fandom has on people. xD "It uses the faculty of what you call imagination. But that does not mean making things up. It is a form of seeing." - from "The Amber Spyglass" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
