Can someone tell me what's wrong with being a fan of the fandom?

>>26426828
It ruins character discussion and greentext stories when the people posting don't know anything about the characters past their basic archetypes.

>>26426828
Get the fuck out

>>26426858
Is that a bad thing?

>>26427055
Yes. Ruining a good thing is bad.

How can anyone be fan of the fandom?. Are you talking about artist?

>>26427245

Not OP, but I'll try to explain.

Lately I've been feeling like the show is sacrificing world integrity for easy storytelling. It's not just Princess McFlurry, though that's certainly a part of it; the feeling has been growing for a bit now.

I look around and I see people coming up with piles of genuinely good ideas on everything from how Earth Pony magic works to what Equestria's foreign relations are like, from villain origin stories to how the Equestria's military fits in. And I find myself enjoying those a lot more than the actual show itself, which increasingly has moments that leave me frustrated rather than enjoying it.

And yes, you could quite easily say that the integrity of the setting was never really their objective in the first place and we're only just seeing it now. It's a fair point.

But I still end up enjoying a lot of fan worldbuilding more than the actual show, which worries me. I want to enjoy the show still and am not ready to get off the ride - but I'm increasingly finding that difficult to do.

Dude, take a look through the catalog on any given day here. It's obvious the mods have largely checked the fuck out/just like watching us suffer. Also doesn't help that we've always been full of for teh lulz /b/tard faggots and alike.

It seems like there are a LOT of people here just to jerk off, this board looks a hell of a lot like a furry fetish board.

How fucking new are you?

>>26427374
I get you, anon. I actually feel the same way. Yeah, its headcanon, anad yeah, its a kids cartoon, but it makes the world and characters that much more interesting and thought provoking.

I pretty much only watch the show to keep in touch with the happenings with the characters/series in general (not sure if that still makes me a fan of the fandom) but when it comes to enjoyable content? I prefer what anons or other content creators can make up over what's canon

So, you don't actually like the ponies or story of Equestria, just the stories other people write? It wouldn't make a difference if the characters in those stories weren't ponies

>What do you actually like about the show and the ponies then?

All the different Races in Equestria

Locales and special landmarks we've been introduced to (such as the Harmony Tree, the Everfree Forest, Castle of the Two Sisters, ect)

The ponies and their personalities

>What can be replaced?

Certain events or scenario changes (such as what if X happened instead of Z? How would it affect W?)

Magic and the way it works - the show does seem very loose about how it actually functions beyond "Friendship and Love are exceedingly powerful and "chosen" ponies or those who study hard can be great mages in some respects. I like to see how individuals define it.

The blanks that are obviously left unsaid about certain events in history or the races we've come to understand very little (or nothing) of. The introduction of new ideas and elements that cannot be (or haven't, anyway) introduced but still plausibly brought in and addressed properly within the show's context to not look too alien or outlandish.

Its kinda hard to explain myself since its not something Ive discussed before. Still, I keep current with all the episodes and even rewatch just to see how well elements are brought in and defined, and how much room they leave to "play with".

>>26428124
On the one hand, the fact that he's proud of being a brony is top tier autismo. But on the other, all of us are definitionally bronies, whether we like that label or not.

Not really a surprise, seeing as most writefags don't even watch the show. It's why I'll never read a greentext on this shit board.
