Well, “Fame and Misfortune” is, for once, an episode to be actually divided about and where that’s kind of justified. It’s the only episode I have a hard time with, because of all that meta stuff they put into it and because (unlike it was the case in M.A. Larson’s original script, that they later altered) they basically portrayed ponies of Equestria like humans; with a dumb, vicious and disgustingly hateful attitude without learning anything from it. Something that’s completely “out-of-universe” for Equestria and would never happen there in that capacity.
But I understand why they did that and why they altered the script like that. They wanted to give the fandom a slap on the back of its head and give those with a horrible attitude something to think and reflect about, by holding a mirror in front of their faces. It was a noble intent and something the fandom definitely needed, so I still tolerate this episode.
But it’s also sad that it had to come so far that such a drastic step by DHX was needed. And I’m still not sure how much the fandom at large learned from that episode.

I get that folks may dislike Twilicorn or think that Starlight’s arc is stupid, but there is no need to say you disliked an episode simply because Twilight hasn’t lost her wings yet or Starlight has a cameo in it.
There is no point in continually saying ”even if it is good (which it’s not), I cannot like this episode because of how the writers screwed up three seasons ago”.
I realize that’s sarcasm, but with the nasty environment the brony fandom has become over the years after its great beginnings, you could pretty much say that.
The brony fandom has become a very sick fandom. And I mean this in the literal way, not in the insulting way. It really is very sick.
holy shit, i thought this pic was hilarious XD why the hell would ppl get pissed off at a jab at a pedo?
Pedos are sub human, thats common knowlage :3 seriously, if the fact that condmening a pedophile bothers you, then you should consider ceasing your ability to breathe.
@NerdSweeper
It becomes drama when a bunch of recognizable on the other side of the Youtube Brony analysis community use said exposed pedo as a cudgel against the rest of the mainstream team because they didn’t boot his ass out sooner.
Honestly the current reference to The Big Lebowski has always felt awkward to me. Even with it being a canon reference, there’s still a bunch of people that have never seen that film.
But this? This feels earned. I seriously want to see this become the new thumbnail. It gave me a good laugh too.

as much as i will agree that some 14yo are already sexually active and so are some 9yo and girls around age of 3 touch them self from what you saying that we should accept that adults can intercourse with them where you draw a line? well law ofc and it is differentia in every country here where i live for example it is age of 15-16 but till adult hood person is still consider a minor that is the age of 18
we can argue if a 14yo is redy and mature enough and do understand concept and consequences of sex both physically and mentalny and it is really differentia for everyone and i would leave that to professional in that subject not a random guy like you or me to decide whats the appropriate age especially when not even some adults understand it but it is an aduld respondenty to not give in to such behavior to protect them
going the same way we regulate alcohol and cigars in some country legal age is 21 the same reason we do not allow 14 yo tu fuk well at least in my country since you state that in your is
They learned nothing, can tell you that now.

Fame and Misfortune did nothing wrong.

Isn’t that the entire charm of being a brony: keeping things going long after everytone should have stopped caring entirely?
Agree

How is that a drama really? The dude was exposed as a pedo with evidence, you don’t call it drama if a pedo is arrested irl.
But this? This feels earned. I seriously want to see this become the new thumbnail. It gave me a good laugh too.
You’re talking about a fandom that’s still salty over a pony getting wings.
Because there is hope for you, cause you don’t jump on drama trains?
Or simply riding out a drama is really immature.
