Duck - Quacks like a duck, takes bait like a fish

Lol, well, blame it on the show ultimately. She’s had almost no characterization, beyond eating cake messily. Luna had her own episode. People have something to work with. Socially awkward, been out of the loop for a thousand years, newly discovered fondness for games… okay, the last one people have stretched a bit from the spider toss thing, but still.

Path of least resistance. Plus I’m sure it’s not some ‘official’ change in direction JJ has consciously decided to take the blog. Just sorta something he fell into. Not to mention there were people bitching and complaining endlessly back when it was raunchier, and I’m talkin’ before the DWM movement. People kept submitting questions for Luna, he was interested in games himself (I imagine anyways; it would be pretty bananas if he actually did research just to make the gamer-ness more realistic), and he probably catches less flak for it now.

Then why is it even called “Ask Princess Molestia” anymore? Sure, there’s a “+Gamer Luna” there, but she appears more often and gets more questions than Molestia, so might as well reverse it to “Ask Gamer Luna +Princess Molestia”

Yeah, Molestia is a bit underdeveloped as a character. I think he started focusing on Luna more because it pleased more people; they found Luna a bit more adorable and endearing.

I didn’t say that Gamer Luna is a Mary Sue, but it it’s kinda sucky that Luna gets to have a personality beyond “BOY DO I LIKE RUBBING MY VAGINA ON THINGS”.

I would love to see examples of how she’s “little miss perfect social balance” or in any way infallible. Seriously, you’re just throwing terms around again without any backup. She’s obsessive and gets flustered easily. Look up the fuckin definition of Mary Sue and stop throwing the term around so loosely. Just because your life might be a big failure pile and you have a lot of character defects doesn’t mean anyone who’s better is a Mary Sue.
 
“In the end, it doesn’t even if you and I like Gamer Luna or not. So Fuck You I guess.”
 
Lol that’s the spirit. We’ll both be getting banned for breaking rule 0 in no time.
 
“Now that I notice it, it’s pretty weird that Luna is portrayed as somebody who’s slightly obsessed with her hobby but still somewhat normal, while Molestia’s character begins and ends with “Sexually aroused 24/7”.”
 
Really, you’re gonna validate this Mary Sue nonsense because you’ve noticed that Luna plays the straight man to Molestia’s antics?

Who in the flying fuck cares anyway? As for this whole Mary Sue thing, look at the big picture. Since Gamer Luna started, Luna has been becoming Miss Perfect Social Balance and being almost infallible. In the end, it doesn’t even if you and I like Gamer Luna or not. So Fuck You I guess.

feels like something from spongebob…at least the Luna waiting panel.

I did not know that. Swag.
 
@MeshGearFox  
It wasn’t explicit. But it still had slightly raunchy slightly dark humour that seems to be rare among the Pony tumblrs. Plenty of cute, plenty of grim dark, plenty of porn but few that take just the balance of each. It also helped the sex jokes were way funnier than the videogame references.

Wait when did JJ ever do anything really explicit? I mean there were some humanized nudes and /implied comedic blowjobs/ but nothing full-on whirligig dick bonanza going all Gladys Kniggght up on those sleestaks.

How about because I don’t believe in telling creators to tailor things for me. That would make me no different than the DWM lot sending him angry letters because they want him to change what he’s writing.
 
I want him to go back to the more explicit stuff. He might not want to. I hope he does but I’m definitely not going to try and force him to.

Because venting frustrations with other people that agree with them = screaming into a box like a petulant child
 
Hey, dislike anything about the government? Why aren’t you out there protesting about their bullshit? Disliked how an episode was? Why don’t you write a stern letter to the writer? And so forth.
