Oh, I must be in the tiny subset off to one side that doesn’t give a shit about the so-called “generation wars” and is a Ponyfan of all generations including G3.5.
 
Because I just frickin’ love MLP. :D

I don’t really like G2, I don’t like G3 and G3.5 and I am a huge fan of both G1 and G4

Generations are sets? What do they contain? Can I construct an ultrafilter containing Derpy?

@Parzival Are those people trolling? ._.

Reminds me of >>252398

@Background Pony  
I’m fucking retarded. Oops.

Your definition does not enforce proper subsets, meaning that fans of each generation shit on that same generation. Which is probably true.

@Parzival  
You… do realize what that thread is calling “G4” is what is nowadays called G3.5, right? All the references to the core seven, the large heads, the LPS appearances?

Just to point to you people who don’t know what this is about, this chart is referring to the generations OUTSIDE of the toy-line.

It’s legit.

@Background Pony  
well that defnitly expains some things. thanks for clearing that up.

@Background Pony  
I hope this isn’t too late. I was busy sharpening your axe, and polishing your armour. I have no fear of what may happen to you, but I worry for the demons who might foolishly crowd your way, nag at the back of your mind, tell you to give in to the dark swirling shadow that is the unpredictable and dangerous future. I worry only that you may become distracted with doubt or some unimportant detail and lose sight of your duty as lightbearer for the rest of us who follow you.  
Know this: the rest of us have seen the future, and what happens in the next shadowed hours mean nothing. No man with honour can ever die. If you wake in Valhalla tomorrow, then keep the chair next to you empty for when I arrive.  
Be brave, brother, like I know you are. When death comes, laugh and I will laugh with you. If it is your time, wait for the rest of us in Valhalla. No man lives forever, but the brave are eternal. Be the fire that lights the way, and hold your chin high so the rest of us can follow your fearless lead. Your courage is the raging tempest that give those weaker than you the momentary fire to stand tall in the hopes they can meet your shadow. Some time, some where, some one will will think of you when they are lost and alone and wish to give up. They will think of you and push on, and succeed and conquer their fears.  
When sleep comes, know that you never end, but a new plane becomes. Worry not about the tendrils of slumbers haunt, but feel your grip on the handle of your weapon. Be brave like I know you are; be the man others look to as a symbol of courage.  
In the hours that come you may wake from your battle here, or you may wake in Valhalla, with your brothers and mine. If you do, raise a glass and sing for your heroes. Know that you are immortal, because nothing can destroy courage. There is no force that can mute the flame that fearless men inspire in the rest of us.  
I want to believe that although I know fear and doubt may rally against you, you will raise your chin, and stand beside me. You will be the one I look to when I need courage in the silent, lonely moments of my life. Going forward into the dark, know that you are never alone, and as my brother, you will always be immortal.  
I do not know you, but I love you; brother. Be brave, like I know you are.
 

@Background Pony  
Aside from a 1998 PC game, yup! No show, so nobody speaks of it

@Parzival  
is that legit?  
did that guy srsly just fucking say that G4 is “stupid” and they have sent complaints!?  
wtf…

@Background Human  
Quite a few.

@Background Pony  
Yep!

@Background Human  
Non Pony fans.
 
And people who like the previous generations but not this ones.

@Background Pony  
so..  
whats G2 then? toyline only?

@Parzival  
Wait, who shits on us? Does MLP have geewunners? (Serious question. I don’t follow non-G4 fandom.)

@Background Pony  
May the Sisters watch over you on your journey.

@Background Pony  
i pray for you.

@Background Pony  
Tales was released in 1992, while the Generation two toy line didn’t start until 1997. So… Tales could be considered a 1.5 in some ways?

I plan to watch G3 and G3.5 at some point to complete the odyssey from G1 to G4, but yeah,I do not have high hopes for my … journey.

Implies that G4 fans are not shat on  
And implies fans of G3.5

@Background Pony  
Tales was late G1, G2 didn’t have any cartoon, just a PC game.
