What if the Brony fan base never existed?

[Book Smarts]

Think of it as an alternate reality...

What if the internet never found out about Friendship is Magic and the fanbase never took off,

How do you think this would've effected the second season?

Spoiler: show

The world would be a better place.

[spoiler]Seriously.

[GalvinRoe]

The world would be a little duller.

[Night Pony]

MLP:FIM doesn't air at my county so I won't know about it.My life will continue as normal,usually obsessing over other things like games or animes.

[Xeno Aura]

Well LoE wouldn't exist for a start.

EDIT: MLP airs here in the UK, but you have to pay to get the channel it airs on I believe.

I only heard about MLP via various references to it and YouTube videos on the internet.

[Zygrograxgra]

Eh...
Sites like EQD wouldn't exist (Something I find would be good. Thinking about that site makes me rather mad.)
However, some of the best works of art I've seen wouldn't exist.
It's a so-so thing I guess.

[Itty Bit]

Well, it would have its ups ad downs.
Personally, I'd still love the cartoon. Heck, I got into the show before I knew there even was a brony community.
However, I'd probably still be a major internet lurker, never really making any friends online like I have been now. I'd probably still be a big ol' doormat too, like I used to be before I met you guys.

Having not watched season 2, I don't know it would effect the show itself, however on a personal level, I think my life would be pretty similar as it is now, only my leisure time would be replaced with somthing else, the big part of this fandom that would be vastly different would be the people I have met over the internet in recent times

I'd also imagine my sleeping/emotional state/education would be atleast somewhat less derailed than what it is now

[Crystal Chaos]

I would be even more lonely with nothing to hold onto in life.

[GalvinRoe]

I certainly would NOT have a whole bunch of new pony songs  !

[lurk852]

Personally, I'd still love the cartoon.

Perhaps not for long... I don't know all the relevant statistics, but I'd guess that without the bronies, the show would be much less commercially successful, and thus less likely to continue for a long time.

[The Wandering Magus]

I'd watch it like I watch shoujo anime.  I have an obsession over stuff like that anyways, Shugo Chara being my most recent one.

But probably wouldn't have many friends, stuck doing nothing in particular, some art on the side, roleplaying on thefantasyforum.com and stuff like that.

MY world, would likely be much more duller.

[The Wandering Magus]

probably wouldn't have pulled out of depression as fast.

[Xeno Aura]

Yup, MLP certainly cheers me up, and I wouldn't have ever watched it if there hadn't been a ton of random MLP stuff on the net nagging me to watch it.

Better to die strong than to live in vain.

[Azure Dusk]

I wouldn't be nearly as happy.

[Crystal Chaos]

Might have actually committed suicide... 

[Soft Fang]

Wouldn't have changed a thing with me. I still would love the show and watch it.
