Front Page? 2000 thumbs? Why?

Oh, Pony-related. Never mind.

pony posts RARELY make frontpage and when they do its pony hate posts dumbass. i am not a brony i am neutral, but do you know why this made front page? because it happens to people, with embarrasing music people can relate doesnt have to be funny.

It happens to me too.

Fact of the matter is it's posted in Ponytime and pony posts are everywhere. This is where all of the support comes from.

A pony post doesn't necessarily have to pop out of the screen with ponies to be a pony post. This is somewhat subtle, in order to appeal to both groups on FJ (predominantly speaking, bronies and non-bronies). Not that this is a bad thing, it's just some way ponies will eventually take over FJ.

I also never thumbed down the content, I've stopped bothering.

pony posts arent everywhere they almost NEVER make it past 200 thumbs, which if your down that low i dont think you should care your invading their territory.

Do you think I give a fuck about thumbs? No, I don't. In fact, I could care less.

The amount of bronies on FJ does not bother me. They only watch a show. What I have a problem with is that Bronies will thumb up content that is otherwise not funny, just as long as ponies are mentioned. Same with stoner posts.

I'm not saying "everyone" who thumbed this up is a brony. I'm stating it was probably a large amount.

id say about 200 just like the pony sea, so since when is about 10% a "large" amount

200 thumbs is a lot in order to get it off the ground.

When people see a content has +10 thumbs in the newest uploads, they'll be more inclined to thumb it up.

Same goes with the opposite; if you find a content with -2 thumbs you're going to be more inclined to thumb it down.

actually i think it quite the opposite, your forgetting the majority of people on the internet are asshats that like hurting others more

Other than those people who enjoy thumbing down content. Whatevers.

I didn't come here to start a flame war, I came here to laugh. This content gave me a small "feel", but not a laugh. Didn't thumb either way.

I just find that an otherwise "meh" content will be pushed along by people on this site by relation; such as stoner-related and dolan-related.

Also, bronies have the largest presence on this site in comparison to other groups, so it's only natural to appeal to the majority.

So OP is either a major thumbwhore by making bronies feel *that much* more related to the content or he is a brony as well.

whats so wrong with getting a good post started?
the bronies are actually funny once you understand what their talking about i remain neutral and yet ive seen a few episodes, didnt hate or love the show and now i understand their humor. if you came here to laugh do us all a favor
get the fuck off this site, its all reposts dolans and shtty comics now mostly, the only good stuff comes from the top 10 comic makers and the people PAST the pony sea so either stop bitching and complaining or get off funnyjunk

Alright I hate to butt in, but what is this site good for if it's not for funny content? I come here to laugh but apparently I've been on here for the wrong reason, so please enlighten me.
User avatar #257 to #250 - obtuse (04/29/2012) [-]
I never said it was wrong.

I saw the first few episodes, didn't like it very much at all. I never saw what the big deal was. The humor they discuss is part of their progressing storyline which I have no idea about.

Heh. "Get the fuck off this site". I stated what I thought and I got shit on by bronies. How ironic. If I wanted to leave, I would. I'm not going to let someone flame me off either.

I wouldn't even consider stating my opinion bitching. If you have a problem with free speech, just stop commenting.

(Also, keep thumbing me down. It sustains me).
