So what you’re saying is that as nice and caring as the mane six are, there are exceptions to the rule. I, personally, am of the mind that there has never been such a thing as pure evil. The closest we have ever had to pure evil in real life were the genocidal dictators such as Hitler, Stalin, and Pol Pot. And even they weren’t pure evil, they were just monsters who deserve all the condemnation they can get. When you compare any of the MLP villains to the closest Earth has had to pure evil, there’s no question that the MLP villains have potential to be reformed.

Sorry. I’m used to people telling me to “gtfo h8er” if I say I don’t like something about the show, so I accidentally read it with a ‘well if you don’t like it then don’t watch it’ kind of inflection.

Well he did not kill him, he just take his magic. maybe he don’t want ti get backstabbed, so he does ist first.

Discord wasn’t really destructive, just manipulative. Tirek lives to feed off of pony magic, Discord is a reality bender or something, and a jester. Yes, it could be used wrongly, and it was, but it also could be helpful, Tirek, on the other hand, only has destructive magic, and sucking magic from ponies.
 
Ehm no? Tirek can also use his magic to create orbs or open portal (like he did with the tartarus).  
He can do different things with his magic
 
And he is somewhat honorful in his own ways. He released Twilight friends, even when he could steal the magic from Twilight as she was distracted by the fact that her friends are captured and he even freed Discord as part of the deal and he pointed out that why should Discord deserve it, when he betrayed them too?
 
There are chances that he will be reformed. Also i think Chryssi will be too and if she is the antagonist in this season, i’m sure she will.
 
And maybe it’s good to have more former villains for the good side. Maybe against the mandatory doomsday villain in the 2017 movie?

Pathetic Failure
If this power appears again, I’ll be surprised. The show seems to be focusing less on adventure and more on slice-of-life. Which makes sense, since the TV-Y rating makes adventures nigh-impossible to function without it feeling completely watered down.

I’m not talking about you at all. I’m just mentioning the people after the finale aired giving the designs shit. Sorry if you thought I meant you.

I’m not saying they should be fired, I just think it’s a little over the top. Bigger hair wouldn’t be inherently bad, I just think it’s a little too big…
 
I will agree the cutie marks thing is kind of silly. Weren’t we taught in the second season that cutie marks all over your body was a bad thing? lol
 
This is all my opinion of course, you are free to disagree with me

I guess the one thing I dislike about the RP designs are the cutie marks all over the body. Other than that, the designs look pretty fine to me.  
I feel like the people saying “WOW these Rainbow Power designs are crap! Fire whoever made these!” are just the kind of people who tries too hard to look for flaws in this show.

It is a cheap recolor, but I think it looks alright as far as cheap recolors go. I just dislike the style.

Did you even see short-maned Rainbow Power? It looks like cheap recolor:

I think long hairstyle is more awesome.

Really? I mean, the color change isn’t bad, but the oversized hair looks really stupid to me. Especially Rainbow and Rarity.

What they did was a mercy; there is, after all, still hope for his redemption. It would have been absolutely just for them to kill him outright for his crimes. Locking him away for the foreseeable future was the most merciful they could be without putting innocent ponies in danger.
 
Fun fact: They DID outright kill Tirek in G1

Found the exit
“We have the most powerful magic of all: Friendship. Tirek has proven to be a tad irresponsible with magic. We should probably keep him away from magic for now.”
 
But seriously, we’d probably moan more if he was chucked onto the reforming pile, than having his arc tied-up but still usable if needed. An ending like this gives more freedom to fanworks, too.

Any group with more than one person in it will be “hypocritical”. That’s part of having differing opinions instead of blindly subscribing to a hivemind.

Well seeing as he was willing to kill Discord (his “friend”), I don’t think it’s a contradiction. He really doesn’t deserve it, just like Sombra didn’t for being a slaver of an entire (tiny) empire.

noddles I like that idea. For now, though, he needs a rather stern ‘time out’. Possibly for a few years.

@Mike  
Yes, he will “bow to friendship”, if he knows it’s more powerful than him. Then he will manipulate them for own gain, backstab them when they are weak, and will be even more powerful in the end (he’s like Sauron in that regard).
