But then again "fans of MLP" is not the same thing as "bronies"...

(Anonymous) 2012-11-23 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
some people just see it is a name for older MLP fans and nothing more. My first introduction to the community was a very friendly group of people on the general/kid friendly subreddit and the people who made fan songs. I told them that I was a girl and it was just like "*shrug* that's cool, who's your favorite pony?" . Also I have to admit I thought the fan songs were pretty damn cool. I wish some of my other fandoms did that. (let me tell you if I could actually do anything with music I would have done a few songs for DP fandom just to kickstart it)


But anyway, every fandom has their weirdoes and creepos. But not everyone is like the weirdos and creepos and you can call out the bad ones without telling most of the rest of fandom off for something they didn't do. It's not like other fandoms have never done some awful unacceptable shit. Like Harry Potter Potter fandom, there was a subset of people who sent the author death threats for the epilogue. and don't get me started on the creepy bashing fics (like that one where Hermione magically makes Ron rape himself because the nutso author thinks he's some kind of irredeemable person for being a blunt and sometimes tactless teenage boy.)

Or the stuff that goes on in DP fandom...like the horrific fanwars and the fandom crusaders who take some requests of the author and then go wild attacking people for referencing anything even kind of adult (even if the character is an adult and...um a fucking villain.)

I'm not defending what that guy did, it was horrible and gross and wrong in every way. But his supporters are not the entire fandom or even all of the bronies. Some people just picked up brony as a nickname for MLP fans.
