StormStreak 36 October 21, 2016 Share October 21, 2016 I only just recently got into mlp and I'm feeling a little down because it really seems like all the activity in the fandom kind of stopped for the most part around 2013. It's really hard to find any good content that was made after 2010-2013 and many of the fans that I've seen no longer consider themselves fans. I'm just kind of sad that I missed out on all that. There's gotta still be some fans that are just as passionate about it right? I can't be alone in this 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K1539 47 October 21, 2016 Share October 21, 2016 Haven't really looked into fan stuff. Maybe people just don't want to put out a lot of effort because they're afraid Hasbro will just shut them down. I know that's a problem for abridged series ('serieses' isn't a word apparently) but I'm not sure about other stuff. I, for one, am pretty passionate and intend on making a lot of art centered around it. There's always gonna be new generations of people. Maybe you missed one generation, but there will be more. Unless the world ends, again, except for real. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ganondorf8 11,323 October 21, 2016 Share October 21, 2016 Fans are still creating new content even now and are as passionate now as they were back then. Some of the older fans have moved on for reasons of their own, yet new fans continue to pour in and become part of the herd. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxy Socks 2,599 October 21, 2016 Share October 21, 2016 It's quite popular still and will be so for quite a while, definitely while the show is going on. Perhaps it's because it has bece more normal now and not as noticeable, since it had a lot of problems in 2013. 2 My OC: https://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/foxy-socks-r9861 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snow 7,206 October 21, 2016 Share October 21, 2016 (edited) I am in love with the show and the fandom I only joined late 2015 but there are still more conventions to be had. A freaking movie and even season 7 apparently we are still going strong!! Don't you worry just because we didn't make it to the party when it started, there is no reason for consurn, it's the poor bastards who join when the party's over are the ones who have got something to think about, they are missing out. It hurts me deeply to think that one day I too will lose interest in this show, but there are some bloody good memory's yet to be made, I'm going to drive for like 7 hours with members I met on this forum to a my little pony convention next year!!!! It's going to be great!!! XD yes we are late. But the party is still going!!!!!!!! Wwwwwoooooooo!!!

The Diver 760 October 21, 2016 Share October 21, 2016 I don't notice as much of a decline whenever I have the time to go to meetups in the area. Still plenty of people of love to Poni! Also noticed that our local convention, Everfree Northwest, keeps getting busier and busier each year so I'm not that worried and I've been in the fandom since mid 2012! 2 "I could have been happy above if I'd never donned the copper carapace and dipped my head beneath the waves to hear the muddled man-made sounds. Distorted and dreamlike droning. The whir and thrashing of a distant propeller, the tumultuous thundering thud of fogbound freighters. Mud underfoot, no sights, except the grasp of a diver's trained hand, dreaming of distant lands knowing all the while this is what I love, not the blue skies and wondering faces above. Canvas, rubber, brass, copper, and glass. Leather and lead, mud and sweat, heaving around in dark, damp depths seldom seen by most yet talked about by all. As if a sunny, happy place where mermaids and seahorses play and chests of gold are lain bare, untarnished by salt and time for all to grasp who are bold enough to go below..." -"Deep Sea Diver", Steven L.

Steve Piranha 29,428 October 21, 2016 Share October 21, 2016 I only just recently got into mlp and I'm feeling a little down because it really seems like all the activity in the fandom kind of stopped for the most part around 2013.

There's gotta still be some fans that are just as passionate about it right? I can't be alone in this I see the fandom pretty active, and also they are creating new content constantly (I'm just not a big consumer of them :-P ). Still, maybe it's me, but I think older works are remembered more often than the new . I can relate to the feeling, joining the fandom pretty late, and feeling ponies will end soon (mine was back at late 2012, close to the twilicorn case), but I doubt G4 ponies will end soon, less if the upcoming movie proves a huge hit . Still, I'd recommend you keep on track on the show and maybe the EG movies now that we are practically on hiatus 1 Sig by Discords Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
