    I know we're supposed to have Love and Tolerate thing going on, but does anyone else tire of the haters sometimes? I get that they don't like the show, but do they have to be all up in our faces over it? It's not even that they're hating on us for stuff that, in a way would make sense (liking a show for kids, or girls if you're a guy) anymore, maybe because even the trolls have realized that the target audience is no longer relevant to us, and we don't care about that. No, they are hating on us for straight up BS. They keep saying that Bronies themselves are the ones all up in their faces forcing them to watch the show - I've never seen any examples of that anywhere...

    The only time they even come close to that is when someone actually asks them what's so great about Friendship is Magic and they answer by saying "just try it out", but the haters act like they go on to random things and insist people watch the show, what?! I'm really not getting the whole "the ponies are everywhere" thing. Yeah, there's a lot of pony stuff online, but most of it only shows up if you search for it. Take DeviantArt for example, don't want to look at ponies, don't search for them, chances are you won't see much of them (you'll still get the odd cross-over, and ponyfied version of whatever you searched for, but who cares, you were never searching for that anyway. Does it really affect you so much?) Some go well out of the way to dedicate accounts to the Anti-FIM scene, and just go over the top with it. I just don't get this; they hate the show, fine, but why make stuff up?

    Dear Princess Celestia,

    I wanted to tell you just how much the adventures of Twilight Sparkle and the ponies of Ponyville have affected me. Before I began watching their adventures, I was a man who had lost all faith in humanity. I searched for days for even the smallest glimmer of hope, but all I found was more despair. I was at bottom of a valley that was leading me to my death, a place where I constantly thought about taking my own life, and ending my misery. One day a friend recommended that I watch an episode of My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic, and although I was skeptical at first, I agreed to watch their favorite adventure; The Sonic Rainboom. I was intrigued, how could I possibly be watching such a thing all the way through, much less enjoying it. I decided to give the show another chance a few days later when I was at my lowest, this time with the Elements of Harmony. Something in me changed that day, and I still know not what it was. I was feeling something I had not felt in a very long time, legitimate happiness. I began watching the show to make me feel better, and before I knew it I became a fan. The show changed my life, in less than a month I went from being an emotionless and suicidal shell to being someone who others actually wanted to talk to. Not just on the internet anymore, but in real life. In short, I honestly believe My Little Pony may have saved my life. I feel better about myself, I feel better about the world, and I have a purpose now, to spread as much hope as I can, to as many people as possible. Thank you,


    Your Renewed Servant,
    HC

    I'll look forward to seeing it, I think it's the dragon episode next right? Let's hope I like it better than the last one (didn't hate the last one, but it had it's flaws, or one big one.)

    Haha, I liked the new episode's subtle shoutout to bronies with (SPOILER)the whole "I can like ponies even though I'm a guy" theme. xD

    Okay, firstly; for some God Mistaken reason, I made an error in my last post, when I said I was dissapointed in the last episode. Well, I wasn't - it was the episode before it (Putting Your Hoof Down) that I was for the most part dissapointed in, and I will be sharing my opinions on that episode in time, believe you and me!

    Dragon Quest however, I found to be a pretty good episode, although I was expecting a different storyline to the one I actually got, it was a nice episode, and I liked how the lesson was handled, and it was kind of cool to see the different types of dragons that there are. The appearances of Phoenixes (as they should look this time...) was a nice touch too - is it okay that I "awwwed" when the baby phoenixes appeared? We're talking birds that randomly set themselves on fire here...

    A couple of things I noticed; one of the dragons appeared to be the same dragon from season 1, although he's just in the background not really doing much, but he's in quite a few scenes - I found it funny when he laughed at Spike with the other dragons, I kept hoping that the other dragons would find out that he (the red dragon, not Spike) actually cried when threatened by one of the nicest ponies ever. Also, if I've counted right this episode contained the third allusion to Final Fantasy which was probably the most obvious one yet, I was actually double taked when I saw it. I'd also like to add that, even with the really "awww" ending of Secret Excess this is the most attention Rarity gave Spike ever... and he blatently ignored it.

    Yeah, I liked that too, good way of looking at it.

    I want to say that dragons in Equestria are douchebags, except for Spike(SPOILER) and that eight legged dragon outcast that looks the same as the "dragon" designed by Rarity named Crackle. xD
