Sokka on Avatar was a meat-loving hunter.

As "servants"? I never seen one dragon servant on the show. So not sure where you're bringin' this up from.

Spike at Your Service
My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: Season 3, Episode 9

----------------------------

When Applejack saves his life, Spike insists that he now owes her a life debt and must serve her forever, but Applejack doesn't think it's the right thing to do.

Eating meat is no stranger to kids shows - predation might be, though. 

Yeah, but it's "Ponyland!".

I think that the writers wanted Spike’s case to be especially unique. Make him the only dragon that lives among ponies the way he does.  Also, I wouldn’t classify him as a servant. That’s a bit harsh. Yeah, he works for her but he is more of a friend than anything else.

You give the best answer on it. I would assume that every other Pony that was given an entrance exam was to show what kind of magic they can do, like making a plant grow a certain way.

To the people complaining about why there aren't more dragons in Canterlot, We only saw Twilight taking her entrance exam but we never see what an entrance exam is like for anyone else. so to assume that hatching a dragon egg is always part of an entrance exam doesn't work that way.

I don't remember, but didn't Twilight say she found the egg, at one point?

 

Still, if I found an egg that had a potentially dangerous species in it, brought it to school, had my princess principle make a special exam for me to hatch it...? I don't know what could go wrong...?

No, she didn't.

She say in S2's Dragon Quest. Spike was given as an egg. No one knows who found the egg or where it was found

It's the reason I came up with my Story of Spike's origins.

...spike forced to do pony bidding? Not really. Spike was forced to leave like this? How bout twilight was forced to have a baby dragon?   But only Celestia knows what the heck is going on on her head. Spike is considered lucky, if dragons were considered equine eaters id instantly crush that egg not take care of it. I mean the only reason why peace between the dragons happened is only because of spike. Because they love spike.

No they aren’t. Dragons in MLP primarily eat gems. Spike eats other stuff because he was raised by ponies.

I did say if dragons were and not dragons are... But i think they do though...or kill...im sure they kill. But i think killing to eat is better than killing for hate.

Oh, that beginning of the episode, Twilight is supposed to be funny to the audience by hating Spike's crisis. It just makes Twilight look like she owns Spike, but don't care about his feelings.... It is just for that moment though.

That's not what the makers of the episode intended with the scene at all. You claim that Twilight doesn't care about Spike and that it's supposed to be funny to the audience. What utter nonsense. How did you come to a ridiculous conclusion like that?

For goodness sake, Twilight spent all night trying to find an answer to Spike's question in her books. If she didn't care, she wouldn't even bothered doing that.
