I know that a lot of people really begin watching the show because of fanmade works.

This, for instance would have sold me on the show without a doubt. And a major factor in me deciding there must be something to the show was that Starcraft PMV a while back. So there is value to the fanmade content.

Also, Tokyogamer: It's not like its weird for people not to post frequently. It's called having **** to do that doesn't involve being on a web forum.

According to that logic you should be watching like every show ever and playing every game ever because they've all probably had some starcraft crossover content made for them as well.

Coming from you, I'm not sure if your words mean anything there.

Shame many people only got into it because of fanmade works, though hopefully many of those people actually like the show for what it is after getting into it.

Also I think I need to start doing some other stuff as well, other than checking the forum constantly. :(

They don't like the show though, they like the fanbase.
If someone likes a show strictly for fan made works please direct me their way so i can yell at them about how idiotic that is.
I wholeheartedly agree with Spelt on this one, it just doesn't make any sense. The fanbase got me interested in checking out the show, but it was the show's own merits that got me to love it.

Maybe if I liked all of them.

Sure there are some people who say they like the show for cool points, or something (which is really kind of silly considering most first impressions of bronies). But I think most of them actually enjoy the show once they start watching it, and if they do it shouldn't matter how they got started.

Those poor unfortunate souls.

PG, be my art instructor.
Sorry Zatch, I don't think I'd be a good art instructor since I've only been at this for like 3 or 4 months and 2-4 weeks over this period of time I've been inactive.
Mostly all I use is references. Plus a guide or two if I need it and a couple of short practice sketches.

Zajice might be able to give you more and possibly better advice on the subject.

True. While I hate admitting to being a bit wrong I think I should've worded my previous post a bit differently.
Overall what matters is that hopefully people who watch this show actually like the show for what it is rather than just claiming to like it when in actuality they only become a part of this because of the fanmade stuff and fanbase.

I know I loved this show for what it is since I wasn't totally aware of it's internet popularity till after I watched every episode that I could at the time or after watching a good chunk of the episodes.

Congratulations to our fellow brony, Taj, for getting 3rd at Genesis in Melee Singles.

And thank you to Doll666 for getting me a Twilight Sparkle doll
and I guess I'll acknowledge you on Taj's behalf for getting him a Fluttershy doll

I've already started using pony tags. Redd hates it and thinks this stuff is only a Smashboards fad. Everyone else from MDNOVA loves my tag. (Melee=PONY, Brawl=Trixi)

I'll be at Apex
