Why do /mlp/ hate the show so much?

>>26888050
>/mlp/ is one person

A new pts was released today

>>26888050
Because it's changed.

These changes are not necessarily bad ones, and several of them were inevitably going to take place, but they are changes, and for some that is enough.

Because fun is strictly forbidden on /mlp/.

Only serious ponies and pony discussion are allowed.

the noisy minority hates the show

>>26888121
and are literally autistic,

>>26888223
but they refuse to leave for some reason not even they can explain. they use fallacy logic like if you give positive criticism, youre a shill or a hasrone, but if you just post its shit all over the place, then somehow thats real criticism even though its just bitching and theres no actual criticism involved.

>>26888223
get over it, the show was made only to sell toys.

>>26888901

>>26888050
We don't.
We criticize bad episodes and praise good ones.

TFW you realize all the people on /mlp/ who hate the show are actually EQG fans

>>26889287
I doubt that. Most EQG fans don't like to spend their time fixating on the flaws in things.

Was EQG fags the downfall of /mlp/?

>seriously believing that you have to watch the show to be on /mlp/
I have nothing else to do but read green and laugh at people like you. There's no reason for me to watch the show to participate here.
Ultimately, this thing is art. And for someone who'll rim the asshole of "criticism" so hard, you seem to be extremely dead set in the belief that there is some kind of objective quality that these people are ignoring.
Here's a criticism: interpretations of art are completely subjective, you trying to delegitimize certain points of view because you think they don't have merit, while also expounding on the virtues of criticism, is hypocritical nonsense.
There is no such thing as "good", "real", or "actual" criticism. There are different kinds of criticism, but one is not objectively more important than others. That is, unless you're a person so insecure about your own beliefs that you have to put on the veil of authority to feel comfortable disagreeing with other people.

so /mlp/ what do you think is killing the fandom besides from all the porn, terrible fanfics, autistic peeps, awful waifus, bad crossovers, overused memes, new alicorn baby, and new fags in your personal way

i think season 6 is going to be the fall of mlp unless the movie changes my mind

Go back to EQD, jabrony. MLP died three years ago. We're just waiting to be released like the gas from the abdominal cavity of a rotting corpse.

They always shut down discussion with shit like kill yourself, or that they don't care. It destroys the sense of community

>>26889461
>sense of community
Do you know where you are? Seriously, you two need to go back to EQD. This isn't your safe space, get out. At worst, make a feels thread and contain your power level there.
>shut down discussion with shit like kill yourself
I'm telling you to stop the whole "existence" thing, because the idea that the cynics of this board are the same people who unironically praise EQD is some of the stupidest shit I've ever seen come out a person's keyboard.
Lurk more, gtfo, or stop participating in discussion threads.

I'm fine with people insulting me and shit but when you just shut down a conversation with "lol fag kill urself" it fucking sucks.

And I like discussing with anons but it's pretty shitty when a discussion thread dies because people won't contribute to the discussion.

Underrated post.

>>26889426
Time. One of the reasons why this show got so big was how accessible it was, but with time comes more episodes, more chapter books, more comics, more obligatory fan content, etc..

At the height of this fandom, the amount of official material consisted of 52 episodes and that's it. Now there are 119 episodes, 3 EqG movies, 14 chapter books and 83 comic issues, along with stuff like Journal of the Two Sisters.

The barrier of entry is a lot higher than it used to be, so not as many people are hopping on.

>>26889447
And be cancellation and canceled the movie.

>>26892645
Probably wouldn't, but I would be fine if that's what it came to.

>>26888050
I dont hate the show, but that wont stop me from criticizing parts I don't agree with.
The only thing I truly hate is shippingfags

>>26889447
SO EDGY

If anything /mlp/ is overly positive about the show. It doesn't like talking about it very much, but it's hard to sustain a discussion with so little, periodic content without eventually falling back to stuff like fanon CYOAs, pregnant moth bat plane pony generals and aryanne.

>>26892795
It's not supposed to be edgy, it's supposed to be colorful.

>>26889287
>>26889325
Don't believe this meme.
There are shitposters who are well aware that a lot of the board hates EqG, so they use that to intentionally upset people.

>>26892974
when you consider /co/, its super ironic.

>>26892811
Either way, it's fucking stupid and faux-edgy.

Do you? There is a community here that does actually come together and have fun once in a while (or use to, before this whole "4chan is about acting like assholes to everyone, even ourselves, and no one is allowed to get along or be civil or it's a hugbox" mindset)

Those moments of community are spontaneous, shit heads. They aren't a constant presence you can use as a basis to complain about the state of the board with. That's the entire point, that's how its always been.

That isn't the case here. It's gotten to the point where we can't have a single thread genuinely discussing the show without a handful of people shitting on the discussion and claiming anyone who still watches the show or even makes any positive statement about it is a hasdrone shill and doesn't belong here.
>you two need to go back to EQD. This isn't your safespace, get out
Neither is it the safespace of the shitters who want to perpetuate their absolute negativity echochamber, but I'm not going to tell these people to leave just because they have different "opinions" than myself. :^)

>>26893393
2013 fucked everything up

all these people in the thread that think 4chan is about hating everything. Its different in every board, here on /mlp/ we say what we like and say what we don't like. That's not hating everything that's called having a opinion. And /mlp/ does have a culture, a very weird one but a culture none the less

>>26888050

Because this is 4chan and 4chan hates everything. Don't you watch Fox News? We are proud to be America's official Internet Hate Machine!
