May have been, but he wasn't in the strike team itself, they were Profit, Nomad, Aztec, Psycho if memory serves.

The trolls are very territorial and have done an excellent job of respecting pony territory. Chalk it up to lesson learned and walk away, or stay and hang yourselves. Whatever, it is all popcorn fodder. Who knows if this thread will stay up long though, we already have one user slinging profanity.

I have to say I enjoyed that music video. Was not too bad at all.

I really liked the cover-art, took me a moment to realize it was color inverted and that it was actually Dashie covered in blood.

Yup figured as much, so no hard feelings if i actually find out i dislike it?

Emphasis on find out, as i have yet to watch a episode

The way I see it, you can absolutely hate the show with a burning passion so bright as to blot out all the stars in the sky, and I'd be perfectly okay with it because you did more than most people would and actually watched an episode or two and can therefore make an informed opinion on whether or not you enjoy it.

Of course, if you then proceeded to flame and/or troll us, we would have a problem. Love and tolerate does not mean blind acceptance, it means being able to live with the notion that people may not like the same things you do, and supporting their right to enjoy their own passions so long as those don't interfere with your own.

That caveat having been said, I think you're one of the nicest non-bronies I've seen in this thread, so it would take a lot for me to have a problem with you.

I don't know if you've ever been thrust into a "romantic" situation with someone who is shy, but I would want to let him down easy.

Why, exactly, does "shy" imply "over-sensative and can't handle rejection" (this is more a general question than an "attack" or whatever, on your argument)?

gonna have to agree to disagree except on one facet, Big Mac is not shy, just quite. there is a distinct difference.

You realize AppleBloom (his sister) explicitly states that Big Mac is shy, right?

Why thank you, and you have my word that even if a end up hating the show with a...."burning passion so bright as to blot out all the stars in the sky" i will not ever troll or flame here, this is sacred pony ground as far as im concerned

you are correct she does make that statement...as a means of justifying her ends, he possess none of the characteristics of a shy person, he never has trouble making eye contact, he's never explicitly avoided a social encounter, and he never has any qualms about speaking his mind, but he has to have something worth saying first. This isn't hard to defend,

wanna learn what a shy pony might do in any given situation...

there's a pony for that...

Not saying it's bad, it just isn't Rock!

Originally, glue (and gelatin) was made from parts of horses; the hooves if I remember correctly. So people (trolls generally) will make comments about how they're going to turn ponies into glue, etc. because they believe that it's somehow insulting us.

I don't think I've ever seen anyone have a real reaction other than to post more pony memes in response though.
