And on a related note
Can we head on to the next one now?
So they started me on episode 16 (Sonic Rainboom) and needless to say almost 5 minutes in I was hooked or hoofed whatever you want to call it.
Now to my point :P
This article is brilliant and it amazes me to find out how far the MLP:FiM fanbase extends past simply watching the show, I just have no idea where to start now that I've watched up to the latest episode.
Also I agree Rainbow Dash is best pony!
That actually sounds pretty awesome.
...Now if I can just learn how to work these post things properly.
I agree with Ilriyas on this one, you should definitely join the pony subforum. It's actually a pretty good one (As in you won't find creepy junk).
But I'm also going to agree with Prime, only partially though. Most of the fanbase scares the life outta me but some of it is quite good.
So to Prime, check out some of the fans like "RainbowCrash88" and "ManeSixDev" (Both youtube channels of the makers and musical artists of the new fighting game).
And back to the guest: Check out some of the firefly fans, they are incredible communities to be a part of. Better than the Trekkies (No offense implied) and the Starwarsians but not as good as some of the Bronys and Pegi-sisters (I think that's right, correct me if I'm wrong).
Further more, (Still at the guest) Are you implying that we are not straight?
I'm posting this everywhere so yah. Here yah go: http://americancensorship.org/
See, the problem with fandoms is that often, the people are so completely and narrowly focused on nothing BUT the fandom that they have no social skills or interests OUTSIDE of said fandom. It's one thing to be a well-rounded person with a lot of different hobbies and interests, but often people who are obsessively involved with a particular fandom ARE socially awkward in any situation that is out of context of their fandom.
I'm not saying that about anybody here; just an observation.
While it's definitely not the rule and there are some exceptions, I'm mostly talking about "that anime kid" who worships some anime girl or seriously thinks their a reincarnation of FFVII's Cloud or some shit. Or furries that only associate and hang out with other furries, eschewing "mundane" people to excuse their lack of social abilities. And don't get me started on mythical "I'm a dragon on the inside" otherkin.
Point is: exclusively obsessing over a single fandom of any kind is bad, mmkay. Fortunately, I don't think bronies do this. I'm sure some do, but it's a casual enough of a thing that I can't imagine the group at large to be full of "pony in spirit" or worshipers of Princess Celestia, the True Messiah or something equally bizarre.
...and now comes the part where someone proves me wrong...
...and I die a little (more) on the inside...
You've never seen Touhou, then.
It's a series of bullet hell shooters make independently by one person alone, but you wouldn't believe that if you searched it on Youtube.
