  1. !eqg There may be fandom drama going on right now, but screw that: have some more Legends of Equestria. http://www.equestriagaming.com/2014/04/legends-of-equestria-releases-post.html

    1. @equestriagaming Fandom drama? Feed me, I want to know~

      Thursday, 24-Apr-14 21:31:14 UTC from web
      1. @mrdragon It involves EFN getting kicked out of Babscon, and the misbehavior on their part that followed shorly afterwards.

        1. @equestriagaming What is it with "Celebrities" in this fandom thinking they're /actually important/. Do they just lose all track of proportion outside of their little circlejerks or what

          1. @ceruleanspark Tinker getting refused access to BronyCon and then throwing a tantrum was a fun one. Admittedly, I don't follow enough of this fandom to know any of the drama.

            1. @mrmattimation the blog "Horse News" is a good way to keep up

          2. @ceruleanspark They're considered celebrities? I guess I'm out of the loop, but I have no idea who that dude is.

            1. @xeleanorxrigbyx They consider /themselves/ celebrities, and generally wind up surrounding themselves with sycophants who confirm that belief. It's a feedback loop that leads to someone like Final Draft assuming they have a god given right to repeatedly violate convention policy because they're "Too big to be punished"

              1. @ceruleanspark I'm reading the story and the guy seems like a complete and utter jerk. How he gets off slinging dirt at the con where it sounds like they were just trying to fix a bunch of things that shouldn't have happened I don't know. And then he resorts to name calling and saying that they're not worth his time, while spitting out a bunch of tweets tearing them down. So fanny bothered.

                1. @xeleanorxrigbyx It's almost as if "working" for a website devoted to cartoon horses isn't a real job or something

                  1. @ceruleanspark "I'M A PROFESSIONAL JOURNALIST DAMN IT, RESPECT MEEEEEE"

                    1. @xeleanorxrigbyx This fandom wouldn't know professional journalism if it beat them with a rolled up newspaper.

                      1. beat 'em hard

              2. @ceruleanspark I love how HotDiggedyDemon legitimately tries to follow convention rules, but when he went to EQLA he was banned forever because Egoraptor was swearing up a storm at his panel.

                1. @mrmattimation Egoraptor comes off as a jackass to me. I don't know why.

                  1. @xeleanorxrigbyx That's from just watching GameGrumps and some of his Awesome series vids. I haven't seen him at cons or anything of the like.

                    1. @xeleanorxrigbyx Watching how he treats his fans and several panels where it's him on his own, he seems like a legit and cool guy. He also fronts his friends money if they really need it, it's pretty much the only reason Danny has a band still.

                      1. @scoot Maybe it's just because he seems so full of himself sometimes. But who knows. Guess it's just his personality.

                        Friday, 25-Apr-14 14:43:12 UTC from web
                        1. @xeleanorxrigbyx That's just how he is when he's on camera.

                          Friday, 25-Apr-14 14:43:55 UTC from web
                          1. @scoot That's good to hear then. Glad he isn't a jackass.

                        2. @xeleanorxrigbyx The guy calls himself Egoraptor. He's probably pretty self aware when it comes to his ego.

                          1. @ceruleanspark Touche.

          3. @ceruleanspark Everfree Network's staffers kind of have a way of doing just that.

        2. @equestriagaming sites getting to big for their shoes and thinking their popularity matters huh? Fandom goes worse by the hour
