Things You Dislike About the MLP Fandom

[Grtxkkyz 388]

Things i hate about the fandom:

Cloppers and those who make mature art of cute little cartoon equines

Those who take their love of the show TOO far

Those who write clopfics

But what i dislike the most are those who hate G1.Yeah,i know the animation and voice acting are not the best,but hey! It's where MLP started at all

 

I hate the bronies that search older generations on Youtube and make comments like: ''This is crap!! FIM is way better than this piece of sh*t''. Seriously, if you can't even have respect for the thing that brought you this amazing cartoon... I also hate those who say to everyone who likes the show and don't call themselves bronies that: ''Man! You like My little Pony! That makes you an automatic brony''. And last but not least, those who spam everyone with ponies when it's not talked about. Oh and Rule34 too, I hate that thing...

Two things:

People who claim to be a "brony" just to get with the newest fad and have only watched just enough episodes to become familiar with the characters.

 

People who bitch and moan about cloppers. Deal with it. They're people too. So what, they're attracted to ponies. Oh no, he's Painting bronies with a bad name! No, the ones ostracizing him are. Any fanbase has people their respective cloppers. Not every fanbase has such a personal vendetta against them.

[GoneForeverBye 184]

My main issue is how... open some cloppers are... I mean, we all know what happened with Howard Stern(?), right? It's basic knowledge that the media will use that information to give us a bad name, so why would you be all like "Oh yeah, I beat off to ponies once in a while and I just said that with a microphone in my face!"

 

Oh, and that one guy who sang the introduction part of MLP? I'm probably being picky, but WHAT THE HELL!? xD

 

Just to say, eventually this attitude will be regrettable. My opinion though.

[SrFrog 927]

Posting pony related material where it's not needed,asked for or appropriate. Yeah, I get it we love the show but it's not necessary to post thousands of comments that undermine the original content of the topic. I'll be fair and say that it's not only this community but it's just a bit more prevalent.

[GrooveBroove 680]

The bronies who constanly shove ponies in other people's faces. Makes us look really annoying -_-

 

Definitely this.

Which seems to be the major dislike.

Though sadly it's just something every fanbase has to deal with

CLOPPERS >.<

[spas-ticShotty 3,584]

If you guys hate clopping, then you're gonna hate John Joseco's Tumblr page . The ponies themselves are mostly harmless, but the HUMAN versions.......holy shit......just go through I couple of pages and you've get what I mean (I went through a TON of pages to see how much NSFW humanized pony art he did ). Plus, the human art takes up nearly half of his posts .

[The Awesome One 1,315]

The clopping is rather disturbing but I'm not hating anyone for it. Another thing I dislike is that some of us have certain a fantasy about ponies.

It took me a lot longer than nescessary to figure out what you meant

[Starshine 16,333]

Those bronies who claims to be prosecuted for their lifestyle when their lifestyle choice involves being a huge asshole to anyone who doesn't share their love of really weird shit.

 

Pretty much almost everyone

[Vicke 3,189]

I hate the kind of bronies who act like this.

 

Brony: Hey, you should so check out MLP.

Person: I have, and i diden't like it that much.

Brony: Ohh, you are a pony hater! Haters gonna hate.

[Sunderbraze 12]

I dislike it when bronies say they "hate" stuff. You're doing it wrong, imo.

[Bronium 512]

People who hate people who like R34. And I don't mean the people who just dislike the stuff, but the people say the people who like the content, and not the content itself, is weird or disgusting or perverted. It just infuriates me. Especially when they say how we should "love and tolerate". It's maddening.

[thegoodhen 698]

Sometimes, 34 crosses the line. I mean, shipping is OK with me, even though I don't search for it, but ponies should stay at least somewhat innocent. But that's something I dislike about stuff bronies do, not about bronies themselves. I also don't like it when bronies forget who they are and they start being mean to each other, looking past similarities, concentrating on differences, because then the "love and tolerance" motto becomes empty. This is also somewhat true for ponies in military. I mean, they are nice people who help others, they are brave, they love and tolerate, but they are... soldiers, who hurt people as their job? I don't really get it (don't take this the wrong way, I hate the fact, not the people).Edit: I just realised that there are 3 comments in row about the same thing.

I mostly dislike the bronies when they fight over whose best pony and argue for ages, but the perverted cloppers really disturb me >.< I try to think they don't exist but I just see so many of them on the internet.

[HomuraBL 851]

I hate people who hate cloppers. Especially ones who say "The show is innocent." Oh, if you care about the innocence of the show, then wheres the hate police for blood and gore, oh every time someone swears. Those are much worse and you are worried about R34? And don't give me that excuse that you can''t avoid it, use deviant art if you have to. I mean seriously they never have a good reason. I have yet to see one.

We aren't monsters, we aren't hurting you, there is no reason to hate.

 

And most of this thread is already making me mad.

What's with all this hate for cloppers? Just because a couple of them talked to Howard Stern for their thirty pieces of silver, doesn't make them all bad bronies who should be exempt from our own rule of "love and tolerance." They're just people who happen to like unusual things in the hormones department.

 

Seriously guys, if you genuinely "hate" any subset of our fandom, you've missed the whole point of love and tolerance. I know everyone is guilty of some sort of unjustified hate, as it's human nature... but do we really need threads dedicated mostly to that hatred?

[HomuraBL 851]

I would also like to point out. Clopper does not always equal Rule 34 artists. There are plenty of rule 34 artist that don't exactly clop. The just like drawing those kinds of pictures.

This makes even less since to why you hate them.

I need to clarify, I'm fine with you hating rule 34, I'm not fine with you hating cloppers.

One last thing, just because someones a clopper doesn't meant they will shove it in your face. If that was the case then we bronies are assholes like the antis say.

While the term "clopper" generally means someone who likes any type of pony 34, you are correct. Some bronies refer to borderline art as "saucy." And then there are some who just like reading shipping fanfics that take it just a bit farther.

You basically just told me and Bandana that because we "accept" that part of the fandom, you don't like our kind. It's pretty obvious where this is going. Can we lock this thread? -_-

I don't know how about you, but most of the time, when I see some pony r34, it doesn't even work in my head. I mean, I don't think of those ponies as of canon ones. Same goes for shipping and clopfics (although I have read only 1 so far, just to know what to think about it). So why all the hate? Pinkie wouldn't rape anyone and you know it. -_-

We read the introduction and replied to it. We didn't read anyone else's post so we'd appreciate it if you didn't suddenly assume something that is clearly wrong.

 

We're saying that My Little Pony started out as a pure, innocent show. Why is it that people suddenly accepts that people are into turning MLP into some whore-fest. As much as we try to stray away from it, the thought of seeing any MLP character prostituting in Ponyville or in someone's bed in real life is just wrong.

 

Of course everyone has their own opinion, and we have ours. We all have our dislikes and likes and we're telling you ours. It's just unnatural to "get off" on pony porn or Rule 34. Do these same people like (or "get off") watching "1Guy1Horse"?

Yes we know. It's just weird to think that someone who loves the show as much as we do and yet would turn the show into some catastrophe.

 

It's a worrying thought is all. I just hope people won't get the wrong idea about a lot of Bronies that don't actually "get off" on this sort of thing. To those who accept this, might not look so bad but to the outsides' eye, it's a very bad look to the community as a whole; whom will most likely assume that a lot of us, if not all, "get off" on MLP (with or without) erotic pictures.

 

To us, it's very unsettling.

What purity? It's a Cheezburger website, they don't contain purity

 

What I dislike about some bronies is that they're too forgiving. Whenever someone publicly attacks the fandom or the show, I always see 70 % of the bronies go: "Love and tolerate mode activated. *boop*". Sometimes, they also proceed to try and calm down bronies who stand up to defend the show, and with defending I mean through discussion and not through acts of force such as DDOS attacks on servers and such.

 

Also, the hate against other bronies in the fandom itself based on what sites they visit/contribute to or what kind of art they enjoy is a point for me. And the assumption that everyone who watches R34 artwork of MLP is a clopper.

[tanoshii 131]

Some of the reason why I used to hate was because bronies kept pushing the show in my face. I still see that happen, quite often to be honest.

Also the usual clopping stuff, I can't stand that, but I guess it's just another thing subject to rule34 :/

[Somebody 570]

I've adopted a philosophy of my own over the years, that whatever a person thinks of as "natural" is entirely dependent on their upbringing and cultural standards. These standards aren't just limited to country borders, there can be a vast range of them in any location or culture! So what you think of as "immoral" or "unnatural" could be completely acceptable to someone else of a different background. Does that make them a bad person undeserving of your respect, even deserving of your superior judgement?

 

Basically, I've come to recognize that concepts of morality and naturality are moot once you bring enough people into the conversation. So can we stop hating each other?

 

Edit: one more thing... who cares what Howard Stern and his bigoted audience think of us? Face it, we never had their approval to begin with, and we never will.
