You say that, but I check your profile and your only favourite is a black oc (like nyx) kirin with a robotic leg and all your comments are on things relating to pony life.
@Dust Rock
…. I just like the concept of Nyx as a character…. Haven’t read Past Sins…. Have seen a shitton of people hate on Nyx…. Fuckin hate them personally but i won’t tell them to stop….
@JazzyWaffles
Also “Faustites” who hate all alicorn characters aside from Cele and Luna, and despise people who make OC ones (especially when they’re introduced into canon timelines in fanfics like Past Sins did).

This! The opinions you see about Nyx are all malformed bad opinions from a single guy that tons of other idiots just parrot mindlessly. Everyone else is memeing. I doubt there are many people who both genuinely hate Nyx and actually read the story.

Correction, they parrot each other. It’s more of Chinese Whispers.
Due to never properly checking it out, most of the complaints they bring up are already fixed as of the Season 2 revision of the story from 2012.
Heck, sometimes there’s arguments that are perfectly in line with the show yet are called “Out of Character” because those same people don’t pay enough attention to the show.
For example: “Twilight would never overreact over Celestia and would never do something that goes against her mentor!”
A common defense is bringing up Lesson Zero, though /mlp/ seems to hate that episode for Twilight being “out of character” along with not trusting anything Faust didn’t work on. (e.g. anything not Season 1)
A better comparison that comes from Season 1 itself would be the episode in which Twilight is trying to keep Fluttershy safe after Fluttershy stole Celestia’s pet phoenix.
My memory is not so clear but I think Twilight said something to the tune of “She could banish you from Equestria, or lock you up in a cage! Or banish you from Equestria and lock you in a cage!”
I don’t think about that, I have seen some fans go on a rant on how much they hate Past Sins. And they go into enough detail that you can tell they read it.

Dumb 4chan meme plus nobody reading her story of origin. I’m surprised it’s still a thing in 2019 but then again people keep using IWTCIRD in 2019 so I guess bronies are just a broken record.
