LarApplejack 0 April 3, 2019 Share April 3, 2019 Hey guys, I was wondering what are the things you like the most about the fandom! Feel free to share your favourites! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetPistol 32 April 3, 2019 Share April 3, 2019 The remixes easily. Spoiler The rest of the so called "fandom" can die in a fire for all I care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Early Sunsets 2,107 April 3, 2019 Share April 3, 2019 I agree, some of the covers are beautiful. Spoiler Exhibit A It's hard to pick a favorite aspect. Maybe it's coincidence with the timing and finally knowing what to do with my life, but I've just felt so much happier in general since joining the fandom. I thought I had found a wonderful group of people back when I became a furry (about 8 years ago, before that fandom went all to hell), but the people here are so much nicer. I guess it makes sense, considering that's basically what the entire show is based around, but still. Quirks aside, I've never met a better group of people.

Monsoon 1,662 April 3, 2019 Share April 3, 2019 The fanfiction, it's kept entertained for years and offers an almost limitless amount of stories, while the quality if fanfiction ranges from bad to good I can still enjoy a fanfiction no matter what it is as long as it interests me and that the author can write without spelling anything wrong.

Even my favorite fanfiction of all time still has the occasional spelling error Well I don't really mind if they spell the occasional word wrong but if they are constantly spelling things wrong it may make it frustrating to read, if it's like one word a chapter I wouldn't mind too much however if it's like 50 or 100 words a chapter constantly that's when I'll be put off of reading the fanfics.

TBD 17,256 April 3, 2019 Share April 3, 2019 (edited) The community. While I get it there are some bad ones...but majority I've encountered so far are more tolerable compared to the other fandoms.

Mirage 24,771 April 3, 2019 Share April 3, 2019 The art! The music and the writing and the animations - all amazing. 1 “Remember that when you leave this earth, you can take with you nothing you have received--only what you have given.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I definitely agree with you there. A constant barrage of spelling errors breaks immersion like crazy. Another pet peeve of mine is amateurish sentence structure and other general vernacular shortcomings. One of the (admittedly numerous) reasons I simply refuse to even contemplate writing my own fic is due to how harsh a critic I am lol. It'd be bad for my ego, no doubt <3 I take it you have read quite a few fan fictions judging by your claim that they are indeed your favorite aspect of the fandom. I'm always looking for recommendations, so feel free to shoot a few in my direction. I might just make a thread later down the line in reference to my favorite fic with the intention of getting recs from the forum as a collective. Horror/ Psychological thriller is my favorite genre in reference to most passively-consumed entertainment media (tv shows, movies, books, etc). This applies tenfold for fanfiction. Spoiler Strangely, i like my vidya to be as light and fluffy as possible. I know it's weird, but for some reason when I'm in control of the progression, I simply cannot stomach horror. Even lighter stuff like Bioshock takes every fiber of my being to get through ^^; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oleks 1,993 April 3, 2019 Share April 3, 2019 Its creativity. MLP inspires people to create amazing things, from fanfiction and theories to art and music. I particularly like how fans literally created personalities of a number of background ponies, and then some of them even became canon. Also, ponification of everything!

RulesofRarity 493 April 4, 2019 Share April 4, 2019 The original songs the fandom produces are pretty great too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCutter 127 April 4, 2019 Share April 4, 2019 (edited) Nothing anymore. Maybe fan works, but other than that, there's absolutely nothing worthwhile or likeable about it. Edited April 4, 2019 by PCutter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phantompone1148 126 March 21, 2022 Share March 21, 2022 Pretty much everything. The fan content, how positive the community thinks (tho, they can sometimes think so little too positively), etc. There are some bad apples in this community But hey, almost all communities have that!
