How many people even frequent /mlp/ anymore? I swear, sometimes

>>29309295
I mean like... I'm here.

>>29309295
Duh, the fandom's dead.

>>29309295
There are 2 people who hate season 6, there's the Nyxfag, there's the guy who says that everything after BNE isn't canon, there are two Glimmerfags who want to torture their waifu, the one who loves her, there's also Slashy and Jim Miller. So this board has exactly 9 users.

>>29309324
/mlp/ has never been part of the fandom though, it's always centered on its own generals and OC.

>>29309295
Everyday

>>29309295
I hope there are others like me that only post once a month but still come here everyday for the green.

I don't want to be the only loser...

>>29309295
I still come here once a day. Even after all these years I still love pony too much to leave.

>>29309394
I come to here once a month out of sheer curiosity and boredom. I've pretty much abandoned this board otherwise BECAUSE of the "green."

>>29309295
Every now and then. Usually I hate this board since every thread devolves into greentext about anon fucking a horse. I mean that's great and all, but nobody has any creativity or gall to try something other than wish fulfillment general and horse drama.

>>29309295
I'd come here more often if the board was actually moderated.

>>29309420
>nobody has any creativity or gall to try something other than wish fulfillment general and horse drama.
There is Pencil's on-going comic.

I took a vacation from the ride for other forms of autism. Though I finally got one of my friends to watch the show on Netflix so I might actually watch the second half of season 6 once he gets there.

>>29309428
That's going to end with Anon fucking a horse, the only difference is that it'll be implied

>>29309428
That's really a cover on the same problem. One thread where one guy is expected to post while everyone else just bumps eternally. It's no wonder activity is dying when the majority of threads are like that.

>>29309332
Im here to remind the two Glimmerfags they should be gassed.

Gas all Glimmerfags.

There are like 400 or 500 users.
I remember 8ch being this fast when it had that amount.
Turst me if you really had 9 fags like this idiot says

How are we that few in numbers? That's kinda crazy.

>>29309729
that survey last year that got spammed everywhere for a week( (including two episode stickies) got a little over 300 votes, so 400-500 is reasonable, maybe a little less now

>>29309805
Honestly?

The board is too vitriolic and tries too hard to be edgy. Plus we openly hate newbies. People are still in the fandom but not coming here because why bother? All that will happen is people calling them a faggot and going back to their greentext general.

>>29309812
Yeah we should suck hasbro dick unconditionally like good drones, like EQD and ponychan do.
People satrted saying "if you don't like it then leave" and now that they actually left, you fags are crying.
You deserve it, you thought people would stand your shit forever and accept to be told to gtfo whenever they said something your hasdrone mind didn't like? Of course, not. Because all you guys want is a fucking hugbox, and that kills forums and places.

>>29309823
>>29309812
it has nothing to do with any of that. it's all about interest, the massive initial fad started to fade and now only the hardcore fans are left.

literally no one leaves /mlp/ for another brony forums, they simply left the ride altogether

>>29309823
Those people left, sure. But now people want to keep up the culture so much that any dissent is screamed at until it leaves.

/mlp/ is a hugbox and has been for years.

>>29309835
Nah at this point they just go to Discord or Skype groups

>>29309837

No it wasn't, until ponychanners came and satrted saying "edgy is cancer" "tryhard" "trying so hard to fit in", that and scruffy killing all the porn and gross shit, made the place so the stupid cancerous kiddies felt at home to force their hugbox and passive aggressive mentality and turn this into ponychan. And ponychan was dead for a fucking reason.
Now the only chance left is to colonize /trash/ so they are repelled by the lack of idiotic rules and porn.

I just come here to fantasize and write about fucking my waifu.

>>29309295
I stopped coming around the end of 2014. The write faggotry chokes the board in my opinion. Endless threads of nothing but fetish crap. I mean christ do you really need so many generals?

Honestly, I miss the old days. I miss the show related autism, the dooms saying, and the fandom drama. But it might also be because I dropped off after season 3, maybe I'm just a nostalgiafag.

>>29309858
a true horsefucker

How to save the fandom? Just delete the worst elements of the show! Rd and PP are dumb as fuck, so no more episodes for them. CMC is counted as fillers, right? Remove them.
Now lets talk about good parts of the series.Glimmer and Trixie are both depressed and a bit of suicidal, so anons can relate to them. That's what made RM so popular in my opinion.If changes like this were to be made,Im sure a lot of artist will come back, and with new content(original music by fans mostly) the fandom will restart itself

I come here to fap in humanized and sunset shimmer threads every now and then

>>29309882
if it wasn't for the writefagging this board would have 1/3 of the current activity. it's literally just ONE show, there just isn't enough things to talk about. there's no other board with such a specific subject as /mlp/

Infighting has a funny way of breaking up fan groups.
But I bet there's still some namefags and content producers who never left, fighting or not.

No place with yeepz in it can really survive.

i had a hot dog for every new thread over a day and I had 13 hot dogs that day

>>29309295

I come here about every other night or so, realize that the hiatus is still going so there's nothing but fetish threads and roleplaying, so I leave.

>>29309324
The fandom is going just fine, but /mlp/ has barely anything to do with the show proper anymore and that's why people who actually like the show don't post here. /mlp/ is basically just a hangout for wannabe writers to post their fanfics and CYOA threads. And the most active threads besides those are generals that just repost the same images over and over again with zero discussion. Is it any wonder people stop coming here?

>>29309970
>the fandom is going just fine
So what's a good fan site to loiter on?

>>29309890
>if it wasn't for the writefagging this board would have 1/3 of the current activity
And it'd be better for it. I have 62 threads filtered right now, at least half of which are fanfic/RP threads. I'd much rather a slow /mlp/ than an /mlp/ full of shit I don't care about.

>>29309295
I'm here pretty much everyday to check out SPG and discussions.
Pretty much the only stuff I'm not even somewhat interested in is the satyr/children of chaos stuff

>>29309890
I'd be fine with all the writefagging if everyone stopped using Anon as a character.
Unless the whole premise is 'what if human in equestria', keep it to Equestrian characters. It's not difficult.

This. I just check up every Wednesday or weekends for show discussion and comics.

The greens kinda lost their touch after years of repetition. Human self insert OC is kinda dull especially when /mlp/ gets a fit over pony OCs but not greenman OC.

>>29309998
>>29309996
Agree. Anon is a lame character used as a crutch for a pissy board culture.

I rarely post, but I like to lurk the drawing improvement threads. So I guess I'm here?

>>29309835
That'd hold true if /mlp/ still watched or cared about the show. But since people here are interested only in their insular generals and greentext sagas, that makes full access to this board even harder.

Anybody could be told to watch the show and then come back for discussion; who but this board could want to wade through the endless collection of dozens of different strains of self-insert "green" and horse waifuism? /mlp/ is a niche ecosystem as it gets. A pebble acting as shelter to bugs in a person's yard has more activity and freshness than this whole board.

>>29309978
Honestly?

Derpibooru

>>29310256
That places seems super hugbox though. Plus their mods are assholes and their tags are retarded.

>>29310280
At least it has a steady inflow of MLP-related content -- obviously -- which is far beyond what could be said from /mlp/ already.

>>29310299
Yeah.
Just I'll just have to try and shit it up without getting banned.

>>29309295
About 200 to 300 people nowadays.

You can't really blame all of us for that though, there where at most 3 CYOA threads at most before Glacial Clear came around and added fuel to the fire. Now there's tons of em.

>>29310444
The trips speak truth! There are 14 of em around right now.

I hardly post these days, just lurking.

Its hiatus and the only thing to do around here is to circlejerk about how much we want to fuck cartoon horse and shitpost.
Of course people are gone to do something else.
Sometimes a good thread happens but people arent willing to hit refresh for days before it can appear.
