Friendship Letters
Categories
on March 11, 2019
You know, when I first came into the MLP Fandom, some 6 years ago. The saying "Friendship is Magic" was more than just a saying, it actually meant something. Yes, there were the exceptional few who trolled, but it was just a few. As the years went by, I have noticed that the more genuine people have slowly left the fandom, leaving people who are either only trying to ERP or just troll others. And it seems, as the current generation of MLP is nearing it's end, it would seem that the majority of genuine people are also leaving more and more so.
Comparison:
When I joined in 2013:
- People genuinely cared for each other
- People were more accepting of the LGBT community
- People were less likely to insult the LGBT community
- There was always a small rift between the Furries and Bronies, but it was a small rift
- RPs were wholesome and fun
Now in 2019:
- A lot of people on here are like the same people on Youtube comments
- People do not care for each other, at least not without expecting something in return
- People are becoming hateful towards the LGBT community
- People go out of their way just to insult people in the LGBT community
- People are more hateful towards each other in either fandom
- RPs are mostly ERP and not very fun

It can also just be that you grew up and matured and see a lot of things that have always existed but you were oblivious to them when you were younger and they're painfully evident now that you are more aware of your surroundings. Good people are always lurking around, you just gotta look for them a... View More
First, I’ll totally roll an adventure RP if you want. I don’t do ERP, but I suspect that I’m far from the only one.
Second, I think that having a focus on one sexuality or another is going to invite polarization: as you probably understand, people often get annoyed when something they don’t care ei... View More
// i guess i'll be that guy...
// the fandom was actually started on 4chan and the phrase "love and tolerate" was first used as a cover for trolls to get awy with shit, the toxic people have always been there because we were born out of a place of such scum and villainy.
//like many of the previou... View More
