@wiipony Fair enough.
-
@wiipony @firestormdangerdash so was the holocaust
-
@wiipony You know the holy crusades was based with the same idea I bet. Besides, you can not have the fandom you dream. Because humans. Seriously. Humans...
-
@wiipony If the had pride in it in the first place, they'd be willing to say, "look at me, I embrace this group in all its glory, and with all its flaws", not "I'll only take pride in this if someone sanitises it for me".
-
@wiipony 69, I win, give me the prize.
-
@wiipony Good theory. But in some causes standing up for others is not a good move. Stubbornness causes wars and having a fandom tear itself apart is not usually a good thing. You must choose your battles. In this case, let everyone do what they want. And hope the light side is more then the dark side. In a sense.
-
@wiipony I don't know about that. If you're going to continue to try and shatter apart a fandom I quite like for the sake of your own pride, then I suspect we'll continue to cross paths.
-
@wiipony Translation: "la la la la la la la can't hear you! I'm going now!"
-
@wiipony I think your real motive here is that you're ashamed to call yourself a brony in public and you want all the inconvenient parts of the fandom to go away so that you can label yourself more easily.
-
@wiipony Utterly ridiculous and bombastic rhetoric aside, no, it doesn't bother me because I don't consider myself the arbiter of "proper usage".
-
@wiipony Who are you to make that call? Who are you to decide what everyone should think is 'necessary' to fix something that you've not even convinced me is broken?
-
@wiipony Keeping innocence in my mind towards the show and characters is a worthy challenge to me. With so many rewards. :)
-
@wiipony I don't really consider that some guy who gets his rocks off to drawings of fluttershy and rarity is causing me "Suffering" on any level. Your view on what constitutes acceptable conduct is not objective.
-
@wiipony Perhaps so, but vaguely insulting and heavy-handed attempts to drive people you don't like out of the fandom is not the right way to do it.
-
@wiipony Yup. Personal opinion if there is ever a problem with anything I have to blame the human element. no matter what you have, throw humans into the mix and it can get pretty messed up.
-
@wiipony I mean you might as well come out and say you've got a problem with the porn, rather than trying saying "foul artwork"
-
@wiipony The lack of tolerance like trying to drive people you don't approve of out of a fandom they might well love?
-
@wiipony I have a knack for getting into trouble but staying out of fights. Basically I browsed a lot of fandoms with bad names and only ever found good people. Yet I always hear how many dicks are in them. *shrugs*
-
@wiipony I can honestly say there IS no 'true brony way'. Everyone is going to disagree as to what that even means. Bloody hell, look! We're doing it RIGHT NOW.
-
@wiipony Trying to carve up the fandom based on what you find acceptable and discarding the bits you don't not only won't help anything, it'll actively harm the fandom by making it less approachable and fun.
-
@wiipony Well if you put it like that, sure. But nothing is calling me out or trying to fight with me. . . yet.
-
@wiipony basiclly because on-topic can cause arguments, I find it best to troll over sensitive things to avoid confrontations.
-
@wiipony Let's be honest, I'm mostly on board with the things you're saying. This fandom does need a bit of a shake up. But I also think that by not respecting my views of being fundamentally goddamn insulted by your use of a derogatory term for homosexuals, you're not really practising the 'love and tolerance' that you preach.
-
@wiipony You're right. No-one at all is going to be offended by the word mangoes. Still, I think you should change it to 'ponymangoesrs' just to make sure.
-
@wiipony Homosexual people have despicable behaviour? Is that what you're saying? That sounds like what you're saying.
-
@wiipony I read it all before in the 90's when it was called the Burned Fur movement.
-
@wiipony Read title, closed window, lost yet more faith in this fandom.
-
@wiipony I was going to say PICK ME I'LL DO IT but instead I'm just going to frown at you for using the word 'mangoes'.
