For me personally, a certain gross-ass roleplayer (who shan’t be named) ruined Diamond and especially Silver long before the show had a chance to.

The reason we don’t see DT or SS in the show anymore is because they have no purpose. Their whole existence was to be the antagonists to the CMC. Because of the half-assed “reformation” in CotLM through a shitty four minute song, the writers brushed 5 seasons of bullying under the rug and used DT’s mother as a scapegoat to absolve DT of the consequences of her own choices. The only other time we even hear mention of DT’s mom, is when Babs threatens to tell her and SS’s mothers about their “bad attitudes” which causes BOTH fillies to gasp and step back. This indicates that having their mothers told about their attitudes would be BAD for both DT and SS. This directly contradicts Spoiled’s actions in CotLM. Funny how the mare ONLY exists for the one episode that she gets blamed for DT’s choices. No, this is simply half-assed writing. No amount of “Blank-flank-hating” parenting excuses DT’s actions, ESPECIALLY bullying a Pegasus over her inability to fly. Something that CANNOT be blamed on DT’s mother, and yet is also brushed under the rug.
DT and SS had no personalities outside of being bullies, and rather than build them up as characters, the writers chose to just toss them away.
CotLM ruined the CMC, DT, and SS in a matter of minutes, and shall remain as the absolutely worst episode in the series. Which is saying a lot, because seasons 6-8 are absolute trash.

She’s okay, but kind of obnoxious and a little plain looking. Certainly not in the level of, say, Windy Whistles or Twilight Velvet, though. (And I still consider Ocean Flow a top-notch mermilf).
*shrugs* She may be a complete bitch (much like Diamon was in the first half of the show), but IMO, at least she’s a sexy one.
She’s not just a “complete bitch”, she’s flat-out emotionally abusive (and physically abusive is a common theory that hasn’t been ruled out, which would explain why we’ve barely seen Diamond at all since “Crusaders of the Lost Mark”.)
@Scrounge
The bit about Cookie being uninteresting is fair enough.
But just ‘cause PB’s kind of a stiff in the show doesn’t mean we can’t still have fun with her in the fandom.
Stormy’s good too, but how about Spoiled?
Great Image all round!!!! A little confuse on what going on in the background, hope to see a story go into this one to explain this. It look to me that the Mothers brought there own mothers gifts for their daughters on this Mother’s Day 😍

Not completely plain, but certainly there’s plenty of others who are more eye-catching.
Plain? Boy, you just came to the wrong neighborhood.

How about Stellar Flare? (Sunburst’s mom)
*shrugs* Fair enough.
IIRC, when I’ve heard “stiff” referring to a corpse, it’s generally just some generic dead body, not one anybody used to know.
When I hear a specific, named person being referred to as “a stiff”, it’s always been in the sense that they need to lighten up.

Also, I find her appearance somewhat pig-like.
“noun
Slang.
a dead body; corpse.”
The word stiff could mean quite a few things. So the way I used it wasn’t wrong.

…I don’t think that means what you think it means.
@Background Pony #0886
I have nothing nice to say about Spoiled Rich.
How about Ocean Flow? (Or I guess maybe even Novo for that matter?)

Cookie’s kinda uninteresting and Buttercup’s kinda dead. How about Stormy Flare?
And hopefully Cookie Crumbles too.
Maybe Pear Butter as well?
If there is, I hope it has Windy in it.
Bronypanda, thank you for this pic. <3
I think the bigger question is why Cookie Crumbles got left out.
Maybe artist didn’t watch early release of episode, y’know.
