Yes but while we're entitled to our opinions that those who think of us as degenerate manchildren are probably uneducated, haven't watched the show, and are probably a wee bit over concerned about Gender identity (possibly stemming from/indicating some form of insecurity they have with the concept). We don't go to other peoples threads and call them degenerate manchildren, furries, etc.. etc... and we aren't generally abbrasive to them because of their opinions. We just sorta:

However Going around and being abbrassive to people because one is not of the same opinion, group, or what have you to make yourself feel better or to get a rise out of someone that sir is called trolling. And that is what most of those people do. Legitimate Term is Legitimate.

consider the quote:

"Critics who treat adult as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence. And in childhood and adolescence they are, in moderation, healthy symptoms. Young things ought to want to grow. But to carry on into middle life or even into early manhood this concern about being adult is a mark of really arrested development. When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up."

-C.S. Lewis

perhaps one day everyone can get something out of it.


Nice, but C.S. Lewis was still a dork!

Before I continue to post ponyrelated things, I would like to say something that has been bothering me for a while:

Love, tolerance and friendship in honor, I don't think there's anything wrong with pony-merc-units... If you feel like bonding together over these things you're free to do so, and I'm going to be the last one to stop you!
I find it kinda interessting that we now have two merc-units based around all things pony, even though one of them thought it was necessary to hijack this topic for recruitment, but that's something that can be forgiven...

However, for the love of Cellestia and all things pony, stop pestering me with recruitment-messages or I swear I'm going to report it!
I jokingly replied to the first one, straight out deleted the second, and now I just got the third...
If I had any intention to join a pony-merc-unit, or any merc-unit for that matter, I would have done so long ago! We obviously enjoy the same things, but let me make one thing clear;
Should I ever decide to join a pony-merc-unit, it's not going to be the EQRG, because being that pushy is even more annoying than reading all the trollposts in this topic!


And now for the reason we're all here:

In all the games I have played over the years I have found it often ends up a bad experience joining a group that feels the need to spam recruit people. I'm sure there will be plenty of available recruits who will decide on their own which pony based unit they are interested in joining. In my case I joined ELPMC because I liked what I saw in the group and never received any sort of recruiting PM from them.

Don't worry too much about recruiting though, if you ever decide to join a merc group pick a group that will be fun for you, pony based or not. I suspect not many things would be worse in game than joining a merc group that isn't a good fit and ends up being no fun at all.

You're from Japan and you say that?

Freaking

JAPAN

wow


Actually, in Japan, anyone who watches anime above age, like, 12-15 is considered weird. And anyone who considers themselves a "gamer" is also labelled as immature or childish. It's why when coworkers ask eachother what they do in their free time it's often "golf" or "gardening", which are sometimes lies to hide what they really enjoy. The only real socially acceptable ways to "geek out" are playing casual games on your DS/phone or reading manga on the train.

So literally everybody who isn't a teenager on this forum, regardless of what subforum they frequent, would be considered a "degenerate manchild" by Japanese society, as Der Komissar would put it (and I really hope his name isn't a 40k reference either, because man the irony of a 40k fan making comments about manchildren in other fanbases :lol: ).

Well actually there are some anime/manga meant for adult such as 'BlackJack' and 'Master Keaton' but but yeah if you're over 15 and you're watching 'Naruto' then you'll be looked at as a "Manchild" in Japan

Eh, I enjoy Marimite, I'd definitely be weird in Japan. xD
Still, would someone watching Josei (if female) or Seinen (if male) be considered weird?
Or is that again only limited to manga/light novels on the train?
