No, this is not a joke/trolling thread. We don't need more filler posts asking if it is.
Remember to spoiler season 6 content, and clearly label your spoilers. |
So, a new toy is popping up: + Show Spoiler + And someone even vectorized it: + Show Spoiler +
Now, it will probably be a new character(the design is too complicated for just a toy), but I think she's harmless enough and there is far too much time to even bother spoilering her existence.
Thoughts?

I think they need to quit releasing toys that haven't shown up in the episodes yet. They spoiled the season finale hardcore by doing that, and chances are this character is going to be reasonably important too in the next season.

Is the OP ever going to get edited to include more polls for seasons 2 and 3?

You can pm GMarshal and ask him, bonus points if you send the bbcode ready. He's been fairly busy and im not even sure he watched season 3 entirely.
Alternstively, ask motbob.

Why can't they just not release spoilers for like, one month.
JUST GIVE ME ONE MONTH HASBRO PLEASE. FUCK.

The Internet has to be the only place where you could find a group of people that could fail to recognize that every book, video game, TV show, play, movie, comic book, and novel lists the characters and major conflict (but not resolution) of the story for public view--since, you know, it's how you differentiate the work and it doesn't ruin the suspense in any way whatsoever--and instead claim they are being "spoiled" by such information.
Knowing something in advance about a work that is not in any way tied to a suspenseful element like a plot twist or a mystery's solution is not a spoiler, and anyone who claims distress from knowing that a new character (say Babs Seed) is going to be introduced when there's absolutely no elements of suspense about it is falling victim to something totally in their head. Unless, you know, you do enjoy video games less when they have pictures of the supporting characters on the box art.
It's the same kind of thing as saying you couldn't enjoy Starcraft II as much because Blizzard revealed that Tychus Findlay was in the game as Jim's old convict buddy in advance. On the other hand, complaining that someone spoiled that + Show Spoiler [only if you never beat Wings of Liberty] +Raynor undid most of Kerrigan's transformation at the end of the game would be justified, because that is part of the resolution of the story and the uncertainty of whether it will be done is part of the suspense.

I agree. This spoiler has told me absolutely nothing of consequence about Season 4. We know nothing about the character, or why she's been introduced. Literally, all that's been spoiled is "This is the name and look of a pony that will probably appear at some point in Season 4 for some reason."
The Babs Seed analogy is perfect. If a toy Babs Seed had been made shortly after Season 2 ended, it wouldn't have revealed anything of importance about Season 3, period.

Oh hey look its someone complaining about complaining. Let's write a rant that is as old as the internet.
I was making an exclamation, chill your tits. I added a picture to it earlier because that topic isn't worth a single post. You however have a useless post with nothing of value in it.
Cheers, and have another picture.

Lesson learnt today: Instead of spending ten minutes looking up the name of some obscure pony, completely interrupting the flow of writing, just put in a placeholder and keep going. I can always come back to it later.

You're taking it a lot more personally than it really is. I think you might be the one who needs to calm down.

You could interpret what I said in the same tone that they made their posts. I suggest you do that.

Camail: Sorry if I offended you. I was attempting to make a logical argument, not to complain, or to attack you personally in any way.
Anyway, moving on: Had the following conversation the other day. Thought you guys might find it amusing. Spoilered for length.
+ Show Spoiler +Salivanth: It's official. I don't know where. I don't know when. But it is an inevitability. Someday, I will, WILL go to say "everybody" and say "everypony" instead. It's unavoidable. I can't avoid fucking up forever.
My brain says it. Every time. Eventually, it's going to take control of my mouth before I get the chance to stop it.
Salivanth's Sister: It will happen.
Salivanth: Eeyup.
Especially with my propensity to try and write fanfiction, which means it's actually acutely beneficial to have the ability to think "everypony" whenever I hear the actual term.
I just hope it happens in an innocuous setting, rather than, say, at TAFE in a crowded classroom.
Salivanth's Sister: You know it will happen in the worst possible situation.
Salivanth: Salivanth walked up to the podium, more nervous than he'd ever been. Today was the day. He'd been working for thirty years for this exact moment, and finally, it was about to bear fruit at long last. He took a deep breath, and began to speak.
"I'd like to thank you all for this tremendous opportunity to address the nation, in order to fix all social and political problems in the world. Now, I'd like to run a little thought experiment by you all. I want everypony to imagine that-"
For an entire twenty seconds, not a single person in all of Australia spoke. Finally, one of Salivanth's most ardent political opponents spoke up.
"...Everypony?"
"No! I didn't say that! I meant-"
"HEY EVERYBODY! THE PERSON WHO'S GOING TO CHANGE THE FUTURE OF OUR NATION LIKES MY LITTLE PONY!"
"HAH!" "What a loser." "Let's ignore everything he has to say and do everything he hates." "Agreed! Gay marriage is banned, Christianity is compulsory, and all bronies will be summarily killed, then brought back to life with new technology, then tortured and KILLED AGAIN!"
From the stage he watched as his life's dream came crumbling around him. The chance to promote secularism, tolerance, and policies to be implemented for a bright future for all mankind were gone. And all because, one day, thirty years ago, he'd watched an episode of My Little Pony.
...Worth it.

FUS RO yay!

Why are you people bad at reading =/ . I said their posts were useless, but that doesn't mean I was offended. The arguments they make are basically "Don't dislike something because I don't think you should dislike it". They know exactly what I meant by spoilers and decide to refute spoiler complaints by defining the term in a different way, which is a boring and empty argument. None of this is anger, I was just saying that they didn't add anything to the table. My complaint was useless as well, which is why I put that awesome Dovahbear picture in it. That was my whole point.
And as for the next post, I merely wanted people to be open-minded and not just assume I was angry, they read the other posts as arguments, so why not even try to read mine as one? You assume I am angry because of the caps (well, those on here who aren't in IRC do, I seriously doubt anyone who knows my typing habits thought I was mad), and continued to do so even after I explicitly ask you not to.
I'm not offended, no one attacked me, and no one has to apologize. I'm just sad that I had to explain all of this. People make it very easy to be jaded.
