I hadn't noticed either but then again, I am frightfully new here all things considered. This is a wonderful place and I'd hate to see it pulled apart. Thanks mods for the reminder and for keeping the place as great as it is, cheers!

Pretty sad this has to be posted again. :( This is a lovely welcoming community and I'd hate to see a trend in unfriendlyness here.

Out of all the many places on the internet I frequent, the pony communities have always been the most welcoming. I feel safe here in ways I don't feel anywhere else!

Thank you mods for this reminder and please let's keep this place a friendly and welcoming corner of the internet. :)

It's just a little clashing of very different demographics. When something gets super popular, this tends to happen.

For example, when I was in high school only 'nerds' like Japanese anime. I was President of my school Anime Club and we were all a bunch of nerdy kids lol. Then they started showing it on American tv a lot and suddenly a lot of the 'cool' kids were into anime. The clashing of these two different groups of people at my club resulted in a lot of iffy moments and tension between some people. Sometimes we all just need to take a step back and breathe, and remember what we all have in common.

The MLP communities are seeing the same thing now, as different demographics of people come together. But it's nothing we can't overcome. We all like ponies! :)

This is not the first time the community has experienced differences like this :) It has happened with each generation to some degree.
