2020 does it again. No, seriously, how many people can say that they have received a net positive this year? Raise your hooves because I know no one around my circles. Unless that you were an investor who put his money on pharmaceutical companies in 2019 before they blew up, I don´t know who could qualify this year as a positive one.

By the way, if anyone believes that the brony fanbase got better this year...oh boy, one couldn´t be more mistaken. You wish all the problems relied only on the release of Pony Life and that hasn´t turned out to be the case. 1st year without the show and it seems that this community is not doing all that well.


>Plus the fact that I hate to see iconic FiM stuff get nuked. I sure hope she doesn't try to go after everything she has voiced in.
=THIS. THIS RIGHT HERE IS THE BIGGEST ENDEMIC PROBLEM WITHIN THE FANBASE==

I am putting this in caps because I mean, this seems like a curse and the brony fandom cannot be the only in existence who applies this practice out there on the internet but even if it isn´t the only one, this practice seems to be way more common than in any other circles. Thanks goodness we have archives (Pony Archives, FimFetch,altboorus, YayPonies...) for compiling the content both official and fan material (as for youtube, you´d better have a copy/download link of the video). Who knows how much content was deleted from the owners that others fans are using instead (I don´t even want to imagine it).

If one has to point out and want to start a list of problems within the community, deleting material after leaving should be at the top of the ranking. Most of the time, it´s because those reject MLP and are ashamed to have taken part of it . If you have been following the evolution of the fanbase over the last 4 or 5 years, those who leave tend to repeat the exact same patterns which unfortunately include the step of deleting their own material while abandoning the ship.
