  1. That said, @broniesletstalk, if you're going to link a video like that, at least explain what your purpose is so it doesn't look like a blind attack against the fandom. And if it is an attack, well...

    1. @redenchilada Do we really have a leg to stand on when it comes to that, since even some of our own mods like to attack the fandom semi-regularly?

      1. @toksyuryel The key word is blind attack. A lot of us complain about the fandom, yes, but we make an effort to explain why we think something is bad. Linking a video titled "Bronies are idiots" with no explanation does not constitute discussion.

        1. @redenchilada I dunno, some of the attacks seem pretty blind to me. Even when there is an explanation it might as well be blind because it's often just copypasta from typical trolls (the latest trend being all this "spaghetti" nonsense).

          1. @toksyuryel I must be seeing things differently from you, then, because the only times I've seen jabs at the fandom in general have been supported with reasoning.

          2. @toksyuryel I've noticed you take a lot of opportunities to complain about our staff. Is there a bigger issue here, or am I just seeing conspiracies in my breakfast cereal again?

              1. @thelastgherkin I've been finding a number of them in my Frosted Mini Wheats recently. Something about 2012.

                1. @redenchilada 2012?! But that's the year it is now!!

            2. @redenchilada Trust your gut, he's just complaining about the staff.

            3. @redenchilada I wasn't actually complaining that time, just stating what I saw and pointing out that if the staff is going to be doing that it's unfair to tell a user they can't also do it. I don't know anything about a conspiracy though. There are a lot of problems I don't even mention because it feels like a waste of time and effort since they're never going to get fixed anyway. Sometimes I just can't hold it in though. All the little things pile up and I need to complain about one of them before I explode.

              1. @toksyuryel It doesn't help us to know there are problems if you won't tell us what they are. Whether or not the rest of the staff is interested in knowing, I'm interested in what you have a problem with.

                1. @redenchilada I get yelled at whenever I bring them up. That's one of the problems.

                  1. @toksyuryel Send me a DM if you'd rather do it that way. I can't say I can get any of them fixed, but I'll at least respect your opinions.

                    1. @redenchilada IRC would be easier

                      1. @toksyuryel I'll try to get on after school.

                        1. @redenchilada You should just leave it connected, that way I can throw messages to you whenever I think of something instead of trying to remember everything. A lot of it's buried under a pile of "wtf ever" so digging it all out will take quite some time.

                          1. @toksyuryel My laptop already gets dangerously hot without leaving it on 24/7.

                              1. @toksyuryel Blah blah money issues.
