    I was looking for pony sprites when I found this thread on a forum about sprite makers.

    http://www.thespritas.com/t3071-my-little-pony-sprites

    I
    t still baffles me how far people can take their hate, that they would tell someone on topic to #$%^ off just because they are talking about ponies. The intolerance is unbelievable. Not to mention a 15 year old got kicked out of home my his mum, just because she found ponies on his computer.

    http://www.reddit.com/r/mylittlepony/comments/lygwc/kick_out_of_my_house_for_the_ponies/

    Also on my presentation video I had commenters say some of the most horrible things to me and wish things on my I wouldn't even think the most evil people on Earth would deserve. Such as go to jail, get torture, die of a painful cancer and all kinds of things.

    What is their problem?

    The whole spriting thing made me lol. Haters gun hate, potatoes gun potate.

    As for the kicking out of house, refer to relevant thread. There's a bunch of stuff there on the topic already.

    Truly I don't know what to say in a situation like this. All I know is if someone told me off like that on a site I would just say "ok and anything else you want to tell me?" I can take a lot of hate from people and still not care, because they can't see what I see or understand it like I do and I just leave it at that. Spoils the fun for them too;)

    >Implies trolls.

    Trolls are an iffy topic, because not only do people define trolling very differently, there are also the rare master trolls, which are very hard to deal with.

    Suffice to say, the hater there was not one of them.

    Haters Gonna Hate.

    Parents gonna Debate.

    But Seriously, This Endless Trolling of All the Haters is Going no where in the internet towards the show and The kicking out of the house? It's Screw up to think a show like this could Trigger any sense of Child molesting in anyway. Parents being disappointed would be more reasonable then kicking out for watching the show. Jeez, Humans like his parents are the Cancer of this planet and don't need people like them on this planet.

    I think it's hard for people to be more reasonable, Open Minded and Accepting The Facts.

    dang! so much hate against bronies dude. i think its just because of some sort of reputation growing on the name. honestly people make up the stupidest crap about us.

    i already heard about filly stalkers and filly molesters, and stuff referring to bronies as flaming homosexuals. and i even heard things like fru fru crews... just alot of stuff are hated about bronies.

    on another topic:
    i told a few friend i like my little pony and they seemed fine with it. one of them doesn't understand why i love it, but respect me, the other just doesn't care, he doesn't mind me bringing up the topic either.


    BTW my posts say filly instead of C H I L D because of the ponfiy app i have for Google chrome.

    Trolls call us "Future Pedophiles", Which to me is Funny as all Heck. Same with my friends. Some are Bronies and Some are not but don't care that i am one and are fine with that.

    The first one to post their *squee!*-ish opinion has the avatar of the *squee!* doctor from Scrubs (don't know the name, don't watch it). Irony hits like a truck.

    Wow, they seem to take the very idea of a Brony as a personal insult. It's like they hate it just for the sake of hating it. I am ashamed that some Bronies get some sort of sexual pleasure out of the show. The very idea disgusts me and I wish it didn't have to be that way. Because of the few who do like it for some perverted nature, all of the non-bronies seem to look at us like we are into beastiality or are pedophiles or something. It's not even a war worth fighting for because it's like arguing with a brick wall. I'll continue to watch MLP:FiM regardless of what anyone says because it's funny, refreshingly heart-warming, and just a great show in general.

    I'm so glad I found Everypony. It's the escape of insane masculine stubborness and ridiculous sterotypes. I suppose one of the qualities of being a Brony is to be open-minded.

    Oh, trolls. They gonna hate, no matter what you do. Ignoring them is the best option. Rant about them all you want, but this is the only advice I'm giving in ANY thread.

    At the end of the day (and it took me a while to realise... heh), those haters are sitting at a computers, or twiddling and tapping fingers on their phones. They can't do anything about Bronies. We can't do much about them.
    So... we ignore them! They can't change who you are with a few harsh words, that you know aren't true. :smile:

    Tis only what I do now. It's your choice, of course! :derpe:

    I've seen various reasons why males liking MLP would be 'evil'...

    We would be perverts. Man-children refusing to grow up. Hipsters that think they're 'deep' by watching a little girl's show. And we would join the MLP-fandom because it's the only community that has ever accepted us :3

    [video=youtube_share;4x-18jY4BxM]http://youtu.be/4x-18jY4BxM[/video]

    What nobody seems to take in account is the possibility that this actually IS a fun show, that can be enjoyed by adults too. :p
    Seriously, people just like to be against something. People need a scapegoat, it's always been like that.

    It's very sad indeed... But I think the only thing we can do is ignore it, don't get swept up about it (please don't), and continue our pony fun. :grin:

    for first case, it's simple:
    normal person + internet + screen name/anonymity = possible troll/hater/want to seem cool and stronger then someone by insulting someone that seems weaker than himself. on internet of course.
    really, I would like to see how much of real life do those people have since they have so much free time to go around searching for bronies to insult them.
    Bad thing is when it actually reflects in real life like in second case. If those parent's would kick out their child out of house over a tv show (whatever show that was), then I question their parenting in complete.

    I'm just glad at least one admin decided to unlock the thread for him. All that for asking for help.

    [​IMG]Mr. Setzer... Everyone has the right to their own opinion. But...

    ...? What is it, Wright?[​IMG]


    [​IMG]This is my point.
    [​IMG]According to Patt... He has a clear hatred for Brony-Kind, and is willing to insult those who he does not agree with. However!
    [​IMG]Is his hatred...
    [​IMG]Worth Complaining About!?

    I agree with Saikyo's post.

    GS1 Edgey made the words too far from his body, and GK Edgey Only faced right. Only GK Young Edgey faced left.

    I have a very activist personality and seeing people be wilfully ignorant like this makes me angry is the same reason another evil, is taking over the world. So I consider anyone who isn't open minded enough to at least try to understand why people like ponies, are complete jerks. For example I thought I lost my best friend when I told him about ponies and he then made a hate video against bronies. then went on to see me ponify most of my school assignments in some way and constantly post youtube videos about it and have pony wallpapers and go on pony toy raids and get up and present ponies to my class.

    Despite all this we are still great friends and he is still not a brony. In my opinion people who are not open minded enough to be respectful of other people's interest are not worth associating with and frankly disgust me and we are even planning on becoming housemates and part of our own independent short film production company.

    But on the other hand. I think the whole anonymous thing on the internet has a lot to do with it. The worst reaction I have ever gotten in real life is a raised eyebrow. On the internet people wish that I never breed and die of a painful cancer. So I don't think haters would actually have any balls to take their hate outside of forums.

    If people hate it, you don't have to shove it down any person. Just ignore them or at least don't aggravate them more.

    As for the Reddit topic, we have a thread for that and talked about it and our responses.

    As for the comments on your presentation video, trolls are gonna troll and hate.

    :derpe:

    @Saikyo; This again... here we go again. :DFH: (Haven't facehoof'd in a while. :derpe:)
