lol@the troll. Very weak attempt. Too over the top to be taken seriously, way too obvious. You have much to learn before you have any hope of actually annoying anybody.
As for Lauren, I like that not only did she disagree, she didn't brush it off- she defended us, and even called out the questioner. She didn't have to do that, and no one would have blamed her if she was a little sympathetic to his view. Classy.
I often wonder if she's a little annoyed by MLP continuing to be synonymous with her name despite her no longer being on the show. Kind of like a musician constantly being asked about his time with the band he left while people ignore his new solo stuff.
Although I am a little concerned just what's going to happen at Bronycon. Please, to those of you that can go- applaud, share your stories, appreciate her- but don't be too fawning or actually worship her. I know there's a lot of... enthusiasm. But I don't think we want to weird her out and convince her we actually ARE a cult. Even if we are. ;)
And maybe we should all try to get into Galaxy Girls a little bit...
It's definitely a troll; a non-troll who was genuinely curious wouldn't call us a "weird cult of manchildren".
However, Ms. Faust can be forgiven for feeding trolls because she absolutely destroys them utterly when she does. It's like watching an ubercrit heavy battle a an out-of-ammo scout with 1 health remaining.
"And maybe we should all try to get into Galaxy Girls a little bit... "
Galaxy Girls is suffering from a bit of a chicken-and-egg scenario... It's hard to get into because there's hardly any content to enjoy and discuss... but there's little content because few have gotten into it.
An animated series for GG would probably be AMAZING, but it's a big risk so no one has yet offered to fund one. Hasbro was an established company with an established, already popular toy line, so they were more than willing to give FiM a chance.
Maybe they should look into GG? Lauren has proven she can make magic.
I'd hate to be labeled a feminist, sexist, grammar Nazi... But when you're making a list of three or more items, you shouldn't link everything with "and". Try: "stop flooding boards with your shitty work, quit making terrible fan art, and stop making everything into a pony".
Also "could" should be "would" in this case... but I digress...
One down, next step is Lauren owning my mom... Yeah she's of the camp that believes that we are all utterly retarded and we have no idea what we are talking about.
Would everyone stop responding to the troll. Theres an old statement about "not feeding them". Just let it brood in its hillarious self inflicted rage.
"Insisting logic to a man who has abandoned reason is like giving medicine to the dead"
At one point in our buddy the troll's bitter tirade he called Lauren Faust a "feminist sexist nazi". So the whole "Hiel Faustler" thing was mostly sarcasm with a smattering of irony XDXD
But for what it's worth, you have my sincerest demands. XD
GO frast! No one has any right to tell us what to like or not like.
Though i really like what she said at the start, how we have a right to like whatever we want, and we all do. If people don't like it, well tough luck, we watch what we wanna watch. I mean WE're another fanbase, like mario/ pokemon, all your whatever base
Hater's gonna hate.
Bronies gonna bro....ny i donno
In short, Brony on, and don't let anyone shove thier dumb opinions down your neck
To summarize all my thoughts: Thanks for having our back, bro. (Because bro sounds cooler than sis in that context, and I prefer to think of it as a gender neutral term for whatever reason)
Pretty amazing thread as usual here on EQD. Despite VERY strong opinions on various touchy subjects people can actually take a step back and rethink their position. Is this still on the internet or is it some new level of love-and-tolerance-net?
@a1754848-51ec-11e1-821f-000bcdcb5194 Oh troll, go back under your bed and cower in fear with your crusty Justin Bieber plushie. We rule the world now. It's too late for your kind.
@Daisymare While I'm not into clopping (I prefer innocent shipping) I'm not into the crusades some have taken against cloppers. Any and all fandoms will have rule 34 (hence it being a rule and all) or something similar to it. Trying to weed it out or demonize it pointless I just accept that it's what some people like and move on with what I like.
BTW I forgot to say this but LIKE A FAUST! Also lol at the poor misguided parasprite gracing us with its presence, we must remember not to feed it, I'd hate for something this pitiful and pathetic to start multiplying
Yay Lauren! I'm glad she appreciates us, and i agree with her completely; anyone IS entitled to their own opinion, though like with last weeks episode, people should try it first before they judge.
@Justin Not only are these crusades (which don't just include rule 34 and grimdark but sometimes even things like innocent shipping as well) pointless, but IMO they serve to polarize the fandom in a way that can only be harmful to it.
Lauren is an amazing artist responsible for amazing things. I do find it horribly unsettling though that her words, whether she intends this or not, seem to be encouraging so many already hateful and close-minded pony fans to continue speaking against clop enthusiasts. Puts an awful feeling in my stomach.
In any case the people who will never tire in bigotry against the daring, deviant, and fearlessly true-to-self will also never change my love for the source material. I'm not going to start worshiping Faust but I'm also not going to forget how endlessly grateful I am to have FiM in my life, and how responsible she is for that.
a17, AKA. Constitutional. Here's something to say as an Anti-Brony to another Anti-Brony.
Just because you hate a show or its fandom, does not mean you can disrespect them. By doing so, you didn't make yourself look good to absolutely anyone. Try brag about this on an Anti-Brony DA page and no one will praise you for this.
You are disgusting. You are an insult to everything you even slightly associate yourself with. I don't want to have anything to do with you. I don't want to have anything in common with you. Just fuck you. FUCK. YOU.
You made hating My Little Pony look bad. That's quite an accomplishment, miss.
What Lauren should do is use Kickstarter to fund a Galaxy Girls pilot. She wouldn't even have to ask directly, Bronies would still donate.
Then after getting enough donations to make the pilot she can pitch the finished product to the Hub or Cartoon Network or whomever and they can decide.
If they all decide to pass she can just upload it to Youtube for all to enjoy.
''Minority'' you keep saying that lady. Then i'll look back 10 months ago on how you protected your bronies and now you don't know how not to call them creepy fucktards which took your messages as blessings to make more porn.
This comment brings me so much joy. Faust is a class act.
On a side note, the amount of love and tolerance in the comments is amazing. Like many others I'm not a fan of clop fics/art, but I get that some people are and it's not my place to tell them what to like or do. I won't say anything so long as they don't force/trick me into read/watching it.
This discussion shows the basics of the brony community: Classy and tolerant.
There's porn of everything on the internet, though? And the Brony Community has raised 30,000 dollars for charity, I think it was? How much have you contributed?
Honestly, i doubt Lauren would dare to say anything really neagative about the brony community. With her being worshipped here and all that. ^^; Would be rather foolish to kick your own fans.
I have found it quite amazing that almost all the bronies here have had positive things to say in response to my views on Lauren's "creepy and unsavory" comment. I must say that many have provided me with valid points for why her comment was valid and why I shouldn't take offense to it. I'm pleased all around by how this all turned out. Thank you all and thank you Lauren Faust. I feel really good abou this fandom right now.
@Daisymare I feel really good about this fandom as well, after all the Derpy Drama last week I'm glad to see all the great things happening this week, specifically the positive support we've received from Hasbro and Lauren Faust, also I'm glad to see that generally the only people who seem to have a problem with us are cowards that don't realize how much no one cares about their ignorant, hate-fueled opinions
Not only did they get suspended, but this 'he' is actually a 'she.' I'm always amazed when females go around saying the same trolling nonsense that males do.
Man... I'm speachless. You know, I never admitted I like FiM mainly because (hold yourselves for this) nobody in my area knows about FiM. NOBODY. I live in a country that ignores the concept of Sonic Rainboom. And I'm not even too far from the core of things, I'm from South America, from a country where PCs and Internet have an universal free plan (yeah, there's a small connection plan for EVERYBODY to have Internet free by the state) yet nobody knows the Mane 6 or Equestria or ANYTHING ABOUT FiM. Now I feel safe that I'm in a very good fandom.
As a side note, if every brony, in the eventual end of the world, gets reborn in Equestria as a pony, I would probably be a punk-looking Eevee. And female, despite the fact I'm a male. Because I'm THAT random.
@Daisymare Is that what Pinkie was doing in that avatar? LOL! You so silly. 8^) Anyway, I'll just chime in what has become the "Daisymare thread": I avoid gore and mayhem featuring ponies, and I find that R34 is just funny (at least there no ponies get hurt). As someone said earlier, I love participating in a fandom where Princess Celestia, Trollestia, Molestia and 'Tia can all coexist peaceably, probably in the same Tumblr (if it hasn't happened yet, it's bound to happen soon). The Brony fandom is the Best Fandom, Lauren Faust is one smart cookie, and even if (some of) your work is not EqD safe, I'm happy to have an intelligent brony like you here sharing your thoughts. 8^)
I shouldn't be surprised that Constitutional is female. I mean, women can be just as aggressive as men (have you SEEN girl-drama?), but... I am surprised. Maybe it was her signature.

HIEL FAUSTLER!
Lauren Faust gets a little cooler every day. I think she's far exceeded +20% at this point.
ReplyDeleteDid Lauren Faust have to choke a bitch?
ReplyDeleteYep, she just did.
Thanks faust, For everything.
ReplyDeleteOne down, next step is Lauren owning my mom... Yeah she's of the camp that believes that we are all utterly retarded and we have no idea what we are talking about.

@MandoPony I clapped when I read Lauren Faust's response, I clapped again after reading your comment.
ReplyDeleteIt's comments like this that justify the deified images of Faust-Pony. :)
ReplyDeleteLauren Faust always a class act. She even said Hi.
To summarize all my thoughts:
ReplyDeleteThanks for having our back, bro. (Because bro sounds cooler than sis in that context, and I prefer to think of it as a gender neutral term for whatever reason)
this is why faust is best pony ^_^
ReplyDeleteShe's the hero the pony fandom deserves, but not the one it needs right now.
ReplyDeleteThis definitely made my day; seriously brought up my spirits! The last few days of school have been crazy...I really needed that.
ReplyDeleteThank you Lauren Faust for once again being awesome!

ReplyDelete@Daisymare
ReplyDelete@The Pwny Brony and all others who doubt if clop material belongs to the unsavory part of the fandom:
Opinion on 18+ ponies pictures
On sexuality in the show (see part 3)
So according to Lauren Faust, yes, it does. And I can't agree more.
No way to stop you guys, but PLEASE don't spread that stuff without filters (or post it to EQD for that matter...)

ReplyDeleteThanks for removing all doubt and confirming what a jerk you are.
My favorite part was "Rainbow Dash is a lesbian". You really struck a nerve there LOL.
Honestly I'm more dissapointed when Bronies attack other Bronies then when nonfans do it.
ReplyDeleteAs for Lauren being a feminist, she's clearly one of the equality feminists and not one of the radical ones.
I remember she storyboarded a Powerpuff Girls episode that criticised radical feminism.

ReplyDeleteAs tempting as it is to view the brony fandom as just another success in the wide agenda of the feminists....
That just seems like paranoia speaking. Also, I just like ponies too damned much to be paranoid about feminist agenda.
Well since someone brought up Galaxy Girls.
ReplyDeleteWhat Lauren should do is use Kickstarter to fund a Galaxy Girls pilot. She wouldn't even have to ask directly, Bronies would still donate.

ReplyDeleteLIKE A SIR!
ReplyDeleteShe pretty much pwnd that guy in a polite and professional way. And she really likes us! Faust at bronycon = most watched stream ever.
Guys. CONSTITUTIONAL IS FEMALE. Not a guy.
ReplyDeleteIn fact, there a trend I noticed that more than half of the brony-haters are actually female.
Now that I think about it, I noticed that females are less likely to become bronies.
WAT... Ok. That could make sense, actually.
I shouldn't be surprised that Constitutional is female. I mean, women can be just as aggressive as men (have you SEEN girl-drama?), but... I am surprised. Maybe it was her signature.
ReplyDeleteAs a female myself, maybe I can shed some light on this aggression.
After I discovered FiM existed, but before I became a brony, I was pretty determined to shun everything deemed "girly". I was trying my hardest not to be seen as a "girl", especially on the the internet. As horrible as it sounds, I kind of prided myself in thinking "wow, I'm more masculine than these guys. I have no interest in FiM." Needless to say I've since smartened up. But that was my thinking back then, so perhaps I'm not the only female on the internet that posed as a "male figure"(I use this term loosely because she's using such a stereotypical portrayal of men).
Totally imo, though.
Go Lauren! You rock!
ReplyDeleteP.S. Trolls suck and Lauren shows them so.
When your signature say "BLOWJOBS for world peace." you've already lost the conversation.
ReplyDeleteI love her attitude. Lauren Faust your amazing!
