>>1133 >Part of it came from Twilycorn mentality EQG too and then, they have not completely recovered about Umbridge´s redemption, but that problem comes more from loud shitposters. >I honestly think it had bigger ramification on the culture of the fandom as a whole. Again, was the impact that big or that noticeable back in /mlp/? I only notice it reading between lines but I haven´t seen threads about this,not sure if they are banned. >This is the post 2014 culture that you talked about in your project. This is why you say the fandom then doesn't look like the one is around now. Yep, it´s still there and I give a post view without living any of these key moments and I have to say that despite the autism title that holds around the net, I wonder if the anons I have talked with are that over the top as 2011 or 2012. I guess it comes after having a certain age as a fandom but I have barely seen brony scandals. The biggest one came from the CNN itself and no fan was involved for creating that event. Still,this meta fandom retrospective would be taken as much less serious than they think.I had made some posts over there back when the dominant pessimism comes around the franchise in general and I at some point, got somewhat tired of seeing that repetition so randomly.
>On the pone side of things one of the worst things that caused this was a series of characters that emerged as vigorous defenders of Pinkpony who were involved with the fandom. They antagonized anyone, and let me stress this ANYONE, who disagreed I sense that youtubers could have got into this as well. I could see that a certain e celb could make the Youtube "brony cloud" get divided. What has happened was the answer to that radical perspective.
>The SJW's honestly could have started a civil war within the fandom at this time. There were enough people who were sympathetic at first but they attacked so many that it pretty much killed most major support in places like Fimfiction, Derpibooru, etc. Well, many have seen that SJW are pure annoyance. /mlp/ calls EQD and Derpi cucks, but I have also seen comments from there and while some users are more sensible than others, they have adopted mostly the 4chan views without shitposting. The good(or bad) thing is that SJW had gone too far or reactive for their own vision and they had excluded themselves from anything related to pony. They were doomed to fail because of those two factors. Not sure if this timeline is the best, but it certainly more calm after that. I have not seen those big dramas that many people over the fans. I guess my phase is the downfall or 2nd part of this fandom.
>There was a second wave at that time I had noticed it with some posts about the Cutie Map saying Fim is capitalist or about Brotherhooves Social, judging the episode by the 30 second preview(literally by its cover, and supposedly those fans had watched Briddle Gossip).Then SU did the same and they praised it. I would like to put another word than hypocrisy but I can´t.
