    Some people just enjoy the series. My dad is fifty and he enjoys watching Spongebob, hell at their yard they talk about Spongebob over the radio with one another. Some people just have different tastes.

    Dunno I haven't watched any MLP series, although a friend has shown me some weird brony videos.

    But I find bronies generally to be funny people, and pony pictures are awesome big grin

    The short and simple answer is that we just like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. The key distinction that alot of people confuse is that we like the franchise as a whole, when really it's just this most recent season that we enjoy. Unlike the early installments, this series was actually headed up by some big names in animated television, and is designed to appeal to audiences beyond just the little girls that are stereotypically associated with the MLP franchise.

    If that's not enough, there's already long answer somewhere else on this thread, but I'd rather not post the same wall-of-text again :|

    The Last place I'd expect is a Call of Duty Forum, I don't think it would last very long there either. It would just be flamed to hell within minutes. Plus this forum in particular is very friendly and kind, so while the theme of Dark Souls is different, the player base found here probably has some merits in common. Since to my understanding the new MLP series is about being friendly and kind to one another.

    Brony threads are no different than the Magic the Gathering thread here or the various Anime threads, it's just a place to come and talk about a random interest of ours happy

    "My Little Pony: *** the World. My little pony has been wanting to appeal to the teenage male audience, so now the series is about ponies that travel the world spreading anarchy and chaos!"

    I don't think it would do as well haha.

    Yeah but how can any self respecting male be openly into this? You are not the target audience no matter how much you tell yourself you are. This infection seems to be spreading to all areas of the internet...need hope

    It is probable that they weren't the first intended target audience, but they sure are now silly

    You're right about the merits of the show.

    You're wrong about the CoD community.

    Go check the CoD wiki sometime....Most of the Moderators and at least half of the admins are open bronies (hell some of them pull double duty and moderate the MLP wiki as well).

    I suppose I mean just communities with them in general, but fair enough there are also the good ones. There are also the bad DkS communities as well. I just have a bit of a sour opinion of CoD players, sometimes it's hard to see past the people you know who play the game.

    Well atleast there's one positive thing to be said about Call Of Duty.

    Understandable, the CoD Community really has gone completely downhill, the only reason I still even own the game is because it's occasionally fun to play with my buddies.

    Funny enough, I'm a Vice Captain of the Brony Clan, we just hit Level 40 (out of 50) a few days ago.

    We catch a lot of flack over it trust me, but the Clan W/L ratio is usually more than enough to silence the neighsayers.

    Welcome to the forums Jarrad! We seem to be the same age, and while I respect your dissenting opinion of the appropriateness of...I mean...I don't mind the fact you don't understand us Bronies, and hope you enjoy our Dark Souls community here happy
