All hail the Rainbooms! The Reformers of Evil! :)

Nah, according to Sunset, if your a common crook, friendship power will send your ass to jail.
 
Only if you were tempted by wild magic to you get one get-out-of-jail free card.
 
And the only reason the sirens roam free is that they had the opportunity to run away, the mane 7 literally had to more or less summon a GOD to overpower them and erase their powers, I doubt they could have run all the way to capture them, let alone charge them with magical mind control.

“The most despicable people imaginable?” There’s a bit of hyperbole to start your day off right there.

@Alexlayer  
How about both?

That’d be MLPFIM, not EqG, considering Starlight comes from the former.

@Tavi959  

 
You don’t know this either.

@Tavi959  
Tavi, forgive me, but maybe you didn’t mean to imply it, yet you very much did.
 

 
This is not worded in a way that implies belief. It implies you, above all others, have the answers to life the universe and everything.
 
Worse, you’re implying you know how time travel in Equestria works, and I doubt even the writers know that one. It’s not theoretical there, they’ve done it dozens of times in canon.
 
Feel free to give your best guess, but yeah, wording is important.

@Flummoxed Phoenix  
I DO know the many theories about time travel, however. “Destruction of multiple timelines” assumes all timelines are tangible at once when they are purely theoretical, as all of time travel is.
 
Nobody genuinely knows how time travel works. All the theories you stated are literally just theories, as are any other hypothetical timelines. I never asserted that I know how time travel works, merely that everything associated with it is absolute guesswork at best. All you’ve done is point out that I’m right while trying to say I don’t know…when I never said I did.

We need more shows like this.

@Tavi959  

 
You don’t know how time works and can’t definitively say that. As far as we know, timelines might be created and destroyed constantly and all the time, or it may be a rare event caused by the interaction of powerful forces at the cosmic level, it could be somewhere in between those two extremes. It’s possible that this is the only timeline and universe to exist, period. You don’t know and you can’t just assert that you do.

@Tavi959  
Woah, hyper-intense on a cartoon plot.

@Tavi959  

Please do not state an opinion you have on a purely theoretical science as if it were a fact.
 
And the discussion was about crimes being attempted, and whether it was worth punishing them if they were reversed with no harm done. If you read my statement a little more carefully you’d note that I was not giving an opinion on whether the timelines went on or not, merely on the attempt to ruin them.
 

 
Also in this instance I am referring to ‘the criminal’ as being both Wallflower (because stealing memories is a crime of sorts) and our favorite time traveling cult leader bent on revenge. Because yes, both tried and ultimately were thwarted in their attempts to commit said crimes.
 
The discussion, to be more clear, was if we’re going to punish based on the severity of the intended crime that was thwarted, Wallflower’s crime was lower on the list of other antagonists that have been thwarted.

@Background Pony #3789  
Time doesn’t really work that way. You can’t really create or destroy timelines, as timelines only exist as a purely theoretical exercise in what might have been in the event something unfolded differently. If the event ultimately goes entirely unchanged, regardless of previous time travel, then history goes unchanged.
 
I won’t speculate about who you are referring to as “the criminal” but I do know that time travel can seem like a brilliant solution to a grievous problem to someone who doesn’t consider the butterfly effect. A popular analogy would be the potentially catastrophic effect of going back in time to murder Adolf Hitler and, by extension, prevent the Holocaust. It sounds noble until you remember how much stronger the Soviet Union would have been without the war with the Germans.
 
Some would still argue that it would be worth it to kill Hitler because he’s evil. Not everyone considers, or cares for, the butterfly effect until they see it in action.

@Background Pony #45E8  
ha! I got the reference!

You are watching Futurama! The show that does not abdicate the cool crime of robbery.

At least Wallflower’s and Sunset’s forgivenesses were deserved.

(You’re now watching Equestria Girls Murder Mysteries)
 
Twilight: Gee whizz, girls! Looks like the murder gutted the victim, strangled him with his intestines and dumped the body in the river!
 
Sunset: Jinkies! A real mystery!
 
Fluttershy: (Jumps into Rainbow Dash’s arms and whimpers)
 
Twilight: You’re right, Fluttershy! We’re dealing with one sick son of a Bitch!

Ummm…this is a Good Thing, right?

@Digital Seapony  
Eh, it’s not like she tried to erase several timelines, potentially causing the pain and suffering of thousands upon thousands. If we’re judging crimes based on what the criminal tried to do Wallflower’s kind of pales in comparison.

@Background Pony #357F  

 
You know, I think trying to rob six high school students of all memories of the last 2-3 years of their life was the more serious offence here.

@Background Pony #E63F  
That was Sunset’s comic.

They didn’t forgive a guy that steal jewelry and send to jail.

@Background Pony #6AA5  
who?

Sunset shimmer - forgive - Demon that want to take over Equestria  
Dazzling - missing  
Twilight sparkle - forgive - Alsmost destroy two world  
Gloriosa daisy - forgive - Tree demon that trap school student inside it.  
Juniper montage - forgive - Turn into a giant lady  
Wallflower blush - forgive - Erased the whole school memories about Sunset.  
Vignette velencia - forgive - Almost crush the entire Carnival visitor into one room.
 
Yeah, I can agree with this.
