I’m pretty sure we’re not the only fandom to deal wth shit like this. Other fandoms may have even more experience then us dealing with situations like this.

Calpain never mentioned anything about Hasbro. Plus, Hasbro has a strict policy that forbids them and their staff from meddling with R34 in any form. You know, PR.
Plus, the blog was under fair use. APM was big before and was big till now, Hasbro never gave a shit. If they did give a shit, they would’ve had the blog taken down by tumblr themselves. Not because of some snotty whiny overgrown little girl.

No one can exterminate the trolls. They’re like the weather, you can’t do anything to stop or control them, but you can cope with them if you know how.

That’s like the same as trying to get a C&D on Equestria Daily and FimFiction. I’m pretty sure Hasbro is smart enough to know that that would direct an epic proportion of anger towards them. They’re not the smartest, but aren’t retarded either. Otherwise, their business would not have been thriving for nearly a century to this day.

How the hell do you win against them?
Simple, by staying stoic and not abiding to their pitiful demands. I know having to deal with the constant death threats can take a toll on the sanity of many. But if you do keep playing it cool(Which JJ had been doing up to now) most will get tired eventually. His blog has been taken down before in a similar manner, he just brought it back and kept playing it as if nothing really happened to him. It’s just that this time, he decided to call it quits much for his personal reasons.

If you’re not logged in, you don’t get the dropdown. You have to click the “Filters” button, which takes you to this page with the big honking warning up top.

Do you even know how to use filters? You click the little drop-down box in the top right corner which says “Default” and change it to “All Images”. It’s really that simple.

My bad, meant to say Tumblr. Woke up pretty early today and I don’t drink coffee. Also read rumors that Hasbro asked Tumblr to take APM down but whatevs.
My guess is that this is just like when APM was taken down long ago via people spamming Tumblr with reports, only this time JJ figured this was a good time as any to retire.
I wonder how long until PP finds out APM and much worse rape images are saved here, kicking off the new crusade, “Down With Derpibooru”?
