The End wasn't The End - Found a new home after the great exodus of 2012

@Mayojar77  
Well, this sounds like a respectful and mature discussion.

@Fanloser  
Well, seeing as nothing that you’ve mentioned regarding the comics sounds familiar, I’d have to say it is.  
Now run along and go listen to your Justin bieber or One Direction or whatever it is you twelve year olds listen to.

You don’t actually know if it is in a different continuity.

Again, the comics are a different continuity altogether. The same rules don’t apply.

That’s the thing with fans, they’ll gladly say something is canon or not, even if they have absolutely no clue if what they’re saying is actually true. And if they could use her element, then why are they saying they can’t as long as she’s possessed?

@Fanloser  
You’re using the comics? They aren’t even canon! They are a separate continuity. And on top of that, Rarity was still in the room, therefore her element could still work. There, I poked two holes in your rebuttal with one comment.
 
Am I using that word right? Rebuttal?

@Mayojar77  
If that were true, then in the comics why don’t the remaining five of the mane six just use the same or similar trick on Nightmare Rarity?

@Fanloser  
That was once, and in the presence of her sister, who bore at least one of the elements. Your arguments are all based on a lack of evidence, yet if I could convince people that a lack of evidence was evidence in and of itself, I’d be the world’s best prosecuting attorney.

No, now you’re just dodging the question. It wouldn’t have mattered if it was a thousand years ago seeing as how Celestia is still very much alive, and has been known to wield ALL of EOH by herself.

So do I.
 
I’m still wishfully and desperately dreaming of a Background 6 episode with the Elements being harnessed by an outer party.  
It’s not likely at all, but a guy’s allowed to dream, right?

That was a thousand years ago. That was the entire point of the first episode.

@PonyPon  
Which raises the question:  
If Spike really had replaced RD in the Discord arc, and the other Mane 6 weren’t corrupted, would the Elements have worked? I mean, Spike certainly is very loyal… And others using the Elements would certainly be in-line with the show’s message of tolerance and amity…

Yet, in the thousand years between Nightmare Night and the first episode, Celestia didn’t even try? I find that that would be hard to believe.

If only the mane six could use then how did Celestia and Luna use them, and the previous bearers of the EOH and even its makers seeing has how they existed before Celestia and Luna but were still known to them.

No, they just showed those virtues. They had them all along, and that’s why they were chosen to bear the elements. They were bound to the elements from the very moment their dads forgot to pull out. If what you’re saying is the case, then any six ponies who show those qualities could get the elements. yet, this is completely the opposite of the truth, since only the mane 6 can use them.

They weren’t chosen, they were earned by demonstrating their respective virtues on the journey to get them.

And term is not used any of the official MLP media. Plus, they don’t seem all that “wild” if they need a welder and a physical form in order to be used.

Not neccessarily. We only know that the spell affected the Elements. What it was supposed to do in the first place is unexplained.

Well, then, how about the fact that they have been said to ‘choose’ their bearers. Basically, that means they’re sentient. They make the decisions, not the user.

We also know that the spell apparently uses the EOH too, to great effect I might add.

“Wild” magic sadly isn’t a thing in the show.  
When is the word or even the concept of “wild magic” even mentioned?  
I don’t disagree with your opinions, far from it, but I think you’re mistaking your headcanon for the actual canon.
