Are you sure you're not a brony anymore? I mean, so you haven't watched an epiosde for a week, big deal, it doesn't mean you're not a fan of the show anymore. It just means you haven't particularly felt like watching an episode in a while. If you still like the show, then you're still a brony. It's not as if you must watch an episode at least once a week to be able to call yourself a fan. Just watch an episode today, and unless you actually don't like it, you're still a brony, and just overreacting.

Also, I don't really like the wording you use. You say it's a show for girls, but it's not. It's a show aimed at girls, but it's a show for whoever likes it. Just because it's target demographics is little girls doesn't mean no-one else can like it.

Posts like that are where crapstorms are born, Ventus. The goals and the results of the post are more different than you think.

Well in that case...you should let me have your VHS of Rescue at Midnight Castle.

Seriously.

Oh also, no offense but your reasons for leaving are some of the dumbest bulls*** I've ever heard. Particularly the quoted selection. I think less of you now for what you've said.

And here we have the return of the closed-minded offensive user, linktopower who used to come to these forums. We all thought him gone, and we thought the kind, open-minded Ventus had replaced him for good, but it seems that it was just a phase, and that at the heart of this user lies someone who is truly closed-minded and spiteful.

For God's sake PB, he got uninterested. It's happened to me a million times before; I become obsessed with something, then after a few months, I wake up not caring about it anymore. It's not like he came over and slapped you in the face, he just said he's not obsessed with the show anymore. Stop getting to carried away, will ya.

And on that note, following TS's precedent, I feel obligated to post reviews of the few other episodes I saw too. I think I will, later.

Okay, both of you, stop talking down to each other. Ventus, you could have worded what you said much better, without being condescending. DavidReinold, your first reply to him was only barely toeing the line, but your most recent was completely uncalled for. It might be better if you two just stopped right now, maybe get offline for a little while. We don't need another derailment going on here... I'm sure most of you wouldn't want to see this thread locked.

I could hug you right now. Except, there's an internet in the way.

@ Russ, I couldn't care less if he stops liking the show, but his post wounded me, deeply. Saying "no offense" doesn't automatically make it not offensive. Basically, what I heard was "This show is not for my demographic and therefore I shouldn't like it and it would be stupid of me to keep watching it but OH you people who are in the exact same demographic as me are free to continue watching this bulls***".

@ TS, yeah, I might have to step out for a moment.

(earlier post one page back for me) TS: icon_thumbsup.gif

I approve of your post in every way possible. While I don't agree with your thoughts on the show I do think you're a perfect example of how it should be done. AKA: Giving something a try and then deciding on if it's good or not. I can certainly see why this show would not be for everyone, in fact, I know it's not for everyone.

The plot in the series is very shallow so people watching shows for a good plot really do need to look else where. What the show really offers is some very nice characters (Design wise, whether you like them or not is irrelevant) as well as charm and good animation.

^ Fixed with pony version! :3


Also, people should really not feel any need to recent Ventus in any way, it was bound to happen eventually for many. While the core brony community is full of dedicated fans, for quite many though, ponies is just a fad, and it will go away for them just like everything else. Though, I do admit that the post was rather pointless.

Gargoyles is the new My Little Pony.

But anyway, I don't care about what isn't an instant hit for me. I really value the style of humor, the "adorable" factor, and the actual apparent reality that it is reinforcing my waning, often lackluster necessities for this thing called "friendship" that is far too cliche as it is.

Mostly it reminds me of Azumanga Daioh in the tiniest, unimportant way.

Well, I've been PMing Ventus back and forth and he seems to be under the delusion that we're all going to outgrow this show, so just to spite him I'm going to make sure I'm right there watching this show until the day it ends. Which will be never, because it will continue for infinite seasons.
