Thanks, but I can hardly take credit for it. It’s just another riff on Col. Jessup’s monologue from A Few Good Men. You know, Jack Nicholson, “you can’t handle the truth,” and all that? (Spoiler alert: on second thought, scratch that. Go watch the movie.)
This has got to be the best “The Reason You Suck” speech I’ve ever seen on this site.
Have you even seen the comments section on most pictures related to the Reflections arc around here? Or Flash Sentry, or Twilicorn? There’s plenty of criticism. The difference is that around here the mods actually point out the stupidity of still being mad about something over a year after it happens. Now drop your persecution complex. The only reason your way of going about this isn’t being respected is because a lot of it is mindless whining with no improvements being suggested and total ignorance of what’s done right. Your oh-so-important critical thought has turned out to be all critic and no thought.
Oh, and you overuse the words “bad writing”.
Meghan McCarthy, Jayson Thiessen, Bobby Curnow, and the rest of the DHX and IDW crews are going to listen to the criticisms of /mlp/, the same group that calls them “sellouts” and “retarded” and that froths at the mouth about the show being ruined by Princess Twilight and EqG. Right.
Criticism is definitely a good thing, as long as it’s intelligent, respectful criticism. Explaining why you felt it was wrong for Twilight to keep quiet about Discord’s betrayal in “Twilight’s Kingdom” is a good thing. Saying that the show’s all about Twilight now is just stupid. Hurling misogynistic slurs at McCarthy for betraying Lauren Faust’s vision is just being an asshole. Learn the difference.
And once they listen and change the show or comics or whatever, those very same critics will cry about panda rings. You’re blind to how these people work…
On the other hand they are the only one who voice their criticism toward comics and tv show. If EQD, ponychan and derpibooru will keep white knighting every mistake writers made then you can expect more Equestria Girls, Reflections and maybe even live action spin off about Equestria Academy. Because if no one is mad then why not? Keep on shitting until the show will look like Spongebob.
I’d say you’re doing a decent job at it for the most part, but /mlp/ thinks its way is the only right one and tends to jump on any reason it can get to say all other groups/sites are worse. Just look what happens if you call them bronies. Honestly, I think they disagree with the very idea of having moderators.
We try to maintain a balance between freedom and keeping out the idiots who insist on being assholes just because. We’d rather lean towards being a ‘hugbox’ than encouraging unpleasant and pointless hostility.

“It’s not what you do; it’s how you do it.”
Part of me wants to report that comment, and part of me wants it to stand as a testament to how stupid the more extreme critics are.
(Cue someone saying, “It’s just a joke, he’s a fan not a hater” etc.)
Nothing so complex. Just painting the site as a hugbox.
sounds a bit like a conspiracy theory.
Just bringing this up in case anyone needs proof that OP was indeed trying to start shit. Normally /mlp/ gets a worse reputation than they deserve, but in this case I’d say most of the negative reaction is warranted. The best response is to simply show that we are aware of mistakes by the show and comic’s creators, but we are capable of getting over it.
And as for the anons of /mlp/ who are probably reading this post, consider that irritating people by pretending to be retarded isn’t exactly worth being proud of.
Hey now, no dragging “alicorn Twilight” into this, it’s just a joke, there’s no reason to assume that the maker of this image intended to slight Meghan McCarthy or that they disagree with Twilight’s ascension…
I think it was a joke.
OK.
What do you think the image’s creator was thinking of when characterizing her as a money-grubbing Hasbro lackey?
Or do you think he was trying to compliment McCarthy by saying she’s a faithful employee worth her wages?
Doesn’t say that, but whatever.
“Dragging”? I think it’s pretty safe to say that everyone who would characterize Meghan McCarthy as just wanting to “help Hasbro” “for money” is intending it as a criticism of Princess Twilight (and EqG, too).
… I really mean for “pro-ascension” and “anti-ascension” to be merely descriptive, since some people don’t like the term “Twilicorn” as it could theoretically be a portmanteau of “Twilight” and “unicorn”, and saying “pro-alicornification” or “pro-princessification” seems, well, needlessly sesquipedalian.
just dragging Twilicorn into a Meghan joke that people took too seriously.

man i must be getting old cuz i have no fucking idea what pro ascension or anti ascension means
>pro-ascension
>anti-ascension
I love how people are slinging around these kinds of insults…over a childrens’ cartoon.
You’re one of those pro-ascension fans that’s just throwing around terms like “autistic” and “hasdrone” to make the anti-ascension side look bad, aren’t you?
