Unpopular opinion time

I like Bonniecorn.

Just because 2011/2012 were the golden years of the fandom, doesn’t mean S1 and S2 didn’t have it’s problems. I hate it when people say Seasons 1 and two were perfect and anything past those are inferior.

@LeoNero  
Me, too.

@LeoNero  
I prefer them over the modern ones, but I know that they have flaws.

@ice1517
 
@Jarkes  
Me too…

@Josh103
 
Now, THAT, I wish we had more of, because without Bonnie Zacherle creating the franchise in the first place, we wouldn’t have FiM.
 
Heck, she actually always intended the franchise to be enjoyed by both girls and boys, but Hasbro forced her to market it towards girls.

@LeoNero  
Yeah. While S2 may still be my fave, that doesn’t make me a nostalgiafag.

@LeoNero  
Yep, it gives me the impression if these people really enjoy the show or not.

@ILoveMyoozik  
Well TBF I have seen several people say that They don’t enjoy the show but like the fandom content, and have seen people say they enjoy the show but not the fandom.

@ice1517  
I remember I used to be the latter at one point, but I got over it and decided that it’s normal for fandoms to be toxic.

@ILoveMyoozik  
Because it’s entirely and easily possible to like the show as a whole but not like specific changes :P
 
@ILoveMyoozik  
Not “fandoms”. Just people :P

@Badumsquish
 
On the other hand, SOME people have made it quite clear that they no longer enjoy the show and will look for any reason to bash it while attacking those that do still like it, and then act like they’re the victims when they’re called out on it.

@ILoveMyoozik  
That would be okay we wouldn’t have cadence which is a price to pay….but no alicorn twilight!

@Jarkes  
Ah yes..“Drinking the Hasbro Kool aid.”

@ice1517  
There’s nothing wrong with that. For example, most official Sonic stuff that isn’t toys hasn’t really interested me in years, but I still enjoy the aforementioned toys, and also fan videos, fanart, older games, etc. Doesn’t make me not a fan.

This only barely belongs here, but I don’t care about Them’s Fightin’ Herds. Or even when it was still Fighting is Magic. The music as typical I liked, but that’s it.
 
There’s only a few pone games I actually was interested in. Minty Fresh Adventure was one of them, but I don’t know what came out of that.
 
I would only want an open-world FiM/EqG game. That would be great to me.

@Josh103
 
I still can’t fucking believe that Hasbro passed up WayForward’s offer to make an FiM game in favor of that shitty Gameloft “game”.

@ILoveMyoozik  
Cadance was still planned while she was there.

@Jarkes  
So then the issue doesn’t have anything to do with whether anyone likes any aspect of the show. It has to do with people being awful to each other. Because if these people weren’t “attacking” others and being attacked back for it, there would be no problem ;D

@Badumsquish  
Or both. I know it’s unfair to judge and label an entire fandom as “cancer” when there are sane and reasonable people, but the stereotype exists for a reason. I don’t agree with it, but it’s there for a reason.

@Jarkes  
I never played the Gameloft game, and even if i did, i’d probably play it for maybe 30 minutes or so and quit the game, never to play it again.

I actually like the gameloft game, but every device I have either can’t play it at all, or can’t play the latest version, so it’s probably for the best. :/

@PonyPon  
Maybe without her consent, cause I could be wrong and correct me if I am, but I heard that she was against that idea.

@LightningBolt  
I wasn’t saying that there was anything wrong with it.

@Jarkes
 
That’s my problem with fandoms and the internet in general. It’s the bitter jabs that I don’t like.
