It's been 5 years now since they opened these forums. I would hope they've made significant progress since then.

It's improved... but not quite enough for my tastes.

Hate to break to it you guys, but MLP has always been a vessel to sell toys. Hasbro sells toys, that's what they do. Don't hate them for trying to make money.

Um it's pretty obvious the video is a fake.  lol

I would assume people are smart enough to know what a parody is.

Actually it was just Twilight's 5 friends who had changed cutiemarks because the spell switched around the Elements of Harmony. I'm not even sure what the spell was actually meant to do, maybe I'll have to watch it again.

Edit: After watching it a second time, it makes a lot more sense now. The spell was supposed to fullfill a pony's destiny through others. Since Starswirl didn't understand this had to be accomplished through friendship, it ended up switching the others destinies around instead. Harmony was not woven into the spell to make it work correctly.

Hasbro just wants to play it safe. She's not gone though! I'm curious if they'll give her a name in this year's fan favorite collection from TRU.

We don't know for sure if that image is legit or not. No one can find a definite source for it.  :s

Technically pointing out somebody's race/skin color is being racist. People are still being racist because their fur colors were lightened a bit for their skin tone, or because they didn't choose real skin tones which would just cause even more problems because of people's ruined headcanons. Can't please everyone all the time.  :l

They weren't the only ones whose cutie marks changed:

That's actually a different pony than Dr. Hooves, although usually he has wings. He's called Cresent Pony in the Gameloft App, and apparently he's the keeper of the Wonderbolt's place.

Every one of those is legit merchandise. Yeah I don't think Hasbro hates Derpy as much as we think they do.

Ugh, I'm sorry but I really dislike the theory of Starswirl being Discord. I'm not even sure where that theory came from.

We don't even know for sure if Hasbro is completely taking out Derpy. They aren't in the toys, that's for sure. She has a brushable coming out now!

I'm worried for LoE. I know it's avoiding copyright infringements and such, but you never know. It sucks to put a lot of development into something and then have it canceled.

No, not poor Cicero! I have him following me right now. XD

Well Fighting is Magic has been given a Cease and Desist, so nobody is gonna end up playing it anyway.

I've put 470 hours into Skyrim so far, haha. That's from 3 characters reaching around level 50. I've done so much but there's still a lot of stuff left to do!

I'm okay with Twilight becoming a alicorn. I read the Entertainment Weekly article, and it seems like this episode may make for a couple of interesting episodes in the future. Just one question: How are they going to put all this in a 22 minute episode?



I'm wondering this too, especially since there will be more than one song, according to Twilight's VA from the Mexico dub. This is going to feel so rushed I just know it.

Well I can think of a reason. Hasbro might be worried about their integrity. They don't want something to blow out of proportion and have parents pointing figures at Hasbro and saying their are ablests and get people to boycott their stuff. I know it sounds ridiculous because that was totally unintentional, but stuff like that can happen.

Derpy is not going to be completely removed from MLP. Licensed companies are still making merch with her, but they're keeping her nameless to avoid offending people.

Enterplay is releasing a Derpy tin in March, so that's proof that she's still sticking around. It is possible we might not see her in season 4, but Hasbro is allowing licensed merch, so don't fret too much.

it'd be a shame if that "hype" buildup causes 70% of the fandom to get up and leave.


Why leave over this? I don't even...


Yeah I mean, really?? People are leaving over THIS? Maybe some Bronies need to wake up and realize it's not about them, it's about the little girls who watch MLP and adore seeing the main character become a magical princess.

I posted this in another thread, but yes, they've pretty much combined the toy and show departments so they can integrate toys into the show better. So executive meddling would be about right.
