3. You simply haven't twigged that there aren't many people interested in the niche subject and keep making threads to try and gain attention to look for like minded people, I did the same thing with guildwars 2 until I just gave up and stuck to the forums for that subject while keeping part of my posting template informing people I am a fan of it so that any fans that see my posts will know I am a fan and may message me on it like slarg did.

While I respect that you don't like the ponies, I must ask that you not troll this thread please.
Thank you.
P.S.
I'd also like to ask why you don't like the ponies.
I've seen the earlier threads created for this subject. Ahtman has several good points that you should honestly consider. In my opinion this behavior is quite similar to that of furries.
I don't think (Or at least, I pray that) people are fapping to ponies....

If other people like it and want to watch it, thats ok with me, as long as I don't have to watch it as well. Bit like my flatmate and his girlfriend watching glee or any other rubbish they like, I go to my room and put on some UFC or Dragonball/Z/GT.
My little pony: friendship is magic is a really new programme.
Yeah, it's only a year old. I wouldn't watch that older crap, but this new one is pretty funny.
Besides, I think playing Gears of War, Mortal Kombat, and Dead Space kind of give me a by when I want to get my Brony on, don't you?

I also disagree that there is no character development. As a slice of life show, despite the lack of the overarching story arc, the characters ARE consistent, and as a result, we get a deeper look into them. They are not one note characters. To be perfectly honest, all of the main characters have major problems in their psychology.
Interesting choice of words. I can understand what you are saying and trying to get across, but you wrote it in such a fashion that it contradicts itself.
I would definately say they have major problems in their psychology, if it's not always so apparant.
While yes, Rarity is always a sort of fashionesta, and Twilight is always a book worm, they do show different personality traits as to not seem so one sided.

Are you from Transexual Transylvania?

TL;DR: I actually went ahead and watched the material that you refuse to even glance at, and made my opinons from there. I didn't make them based on things from way back in the 80's. I may not be a Pony Person, but I do stand for knowing what the feth you are arguing about.
You dun make me proud, Chowderhead. You dun make me proud.

I love that series. You did, however, remind me of the time Myrrel, Wolfwood, Vash, and the other lady are getting drunk and one of them shouts "Hey Myrrel, GET YOUR CLOTHS BACK ON!"

Nope. Now that you have watched a small part of episode one, it will fester in the back of your head, eventually gaining enough influence to make you want to watch it again!

3) I, ignorant person commenting on this, have never watched the show and have no idea what goes on it so I'm talking out my ass here and making no sense.
There are something's in FiM that are too cute and are annoying. The CMCs really bug me and they're one of the aspects that obviously ONLY are in the show for their target audience. My favorite character is Pinkie Pie because I like random, off the wall, absurd characters. I don't think she's a 'cute' character. She's more of a sugar addicted ADD nutcase.
Agreed, the Cutie Mark Crusaders are annoying, and I hate them in every episode they come in.

The latest episode was great, I loved how Dinky appeared derping at one point, a mention of The Great and Powerful Trixie, Rarity's rage, and Diamond Tiara being the editor, "I want pictures of Spiderman!" style.
Also, interesting to see that cutie marks are on their coat, but don't go down to the skin.
Ah, thanks.
I always thought Cutie Marks were like a patch of coat that just changed color, meself. Though I thought that it might be possible to "Blank Flank" yourself.
