Another Cringe Thread About Bronies in General. (Possibly NSFW)

You mean some of /mlp/’s users have done undesirable things.
That place has also donated piles of food and has raised lots of money to aid the poor, but none of the usual /mlp/ fanatic bashers ever brings that up, and instead throw the entire place under the bus to support their petty hatred and their kiddy vendettas.

Exactly, that’s what I meant. It’s just like what happens just about anywhere. A place could be a pretty okay place to visit, but the members who are worse for wear dont define who they are or what they’ve done.
Edit:
I’ve lurked there a few times, and while it is a bit chaotic for my tastes, I was glad to make some people happy with a post I made there.

Try telling that to that Chan Hating BGP from the Tartarus Thread who had been pestering “alt-righters” in various threads on the forums a little while back.

/mlp/ is actually deleting any threads linking to Miller’s account or uploading screencaps from this issue because outside of the same troublemakers, that place wants to have nothing to do with it.

I’ve never seen a single 4chan hater who had achieved anything of worth to validate his angry stance and soapbox rants, and much less have seen any of them matching any of /mlp/s’s positive deeds, like the huge charity and donation drives or Pencils becoming part of the official comic staff.
So that’s that, I guess.

Really, hating on stuff - even hateful stuff - is usually a mug’s game. And yet we humans fall into it so easily…

I don’t like 4chan that much either, and even I think that guy goes way overboard (as well as a few other BGPs I’ve seen who had a massive hateboner for the site).

People thrashing and getting worked up over a cartoon, just because said episode didn’t go exactly how they’d like it to go. Speaks of entitlement and pettiness of today’s society. Especially on the internet.

Beacuse if they’re waiting, every viewer who isn’t is a spoiler risk. Still doesn’t entitle them to tell others what to do, though.

Because for some, the series is literally all what they have, so it’s serious business for them.
Not even kidding- too many people has openly admited that ponies is all what they have in their life, and from that same group, too many people has also admited they don’t have the ability to understand why some people would watch an early release instead of watching it the “right” way, they aso admit to lack the ability to understand why some people would dislike an episode, and also admit that people watching the series the “wrong” way or having the “wrong” opinion is something that drives them nuts.
Just go check the Pony Venting thread and you will have plenty of cringe material for this very thread.

So. Jim Miller locked his Twitter in response to death threats. What happened to “friendship is magic,” for god’s sake? I honestly thought we were better than this. I’m not surprised, unfortunately, but I really was hopeful shit like this wouldn’t happen. What the hell, guys.

I use “we” to refer to bronies, although I suppose anyone who missed the entire point of the show doesn’t count as one. If the news reported on it, the perpetrators would be categorized as “bronies” along with us who did nothing at all. That’s the worst part: they are absolutely not a real part of this community, but they’re close enough that we’re tainted by guilt via association.

I also thought that the point of the show didn’t involved bringing up the torches, pitchforks and soapboxes every time somebody did something stupid and here we are, watching people getting livid and wanting to organize a manhunt to find and punish a handful of bored morons who had nothing better to do so they decided to troll a show staffer.

The “just trolling” argument has its limits, and if someone’s mental health is genuinely suffering it’s not trolling, it’s harassment. Death threats aren’t trolling, last time I checked.

Apparently we have conflicting opinions and so we will never agree with each other, so I’m dropping the issue now.

Thing is, we can say “it was just a small number of jackasses” all we like, but while that is true, the issue is that it shouldn’t be a problem at all. And the fact that there are quite a few people on this very site saying things like “they should’ve expected it” or “they had it coming” is… not a good look.

Honestly I don’t care if someone does as long as they don’t go out spoiling it for others. Back during the major leaks and major airings with season 7/8 and the movie, I came across fans who blamed the other fans waiting for the US releases for some confounded reasons such as “Well it isn’t my fault you decided to wait.” No it isnt your fault they decided to wait, but it is your fault for not caring enough to spoil your work for the people who do.

just disconnect your modem for a month, there, problem solved :P
eh, i honestly dont get why people get THAT upset, angry, and agressive over spoilers, yes it ruins the whole series yada yada, but did you really had to declare internet war?
but then again i was never invested in anything to be affected much by spoilers, i mean, i got the ending of super mistery dungeon spoiled but that didnt stop me to cry over it because holy fuck arent those games a gigant feels trip

Understandable, but it’s still a dick move ya know? Some people like the wait for a new episode and the surprise from it. Going off and blaming people for something that you did (intentionally or not) is just a dick move all around.

Unfortunately, the number of terrible people in the world is not low enough that a fandom of this size will not include some. And the rest of us have no real power to silence them.

You can only watch something the first time once. You can watch it knowing what will happen a hundred times. The value is not equivalent.
