I think they know, most of them, about G2 and the Tales thing. I have seen people say, "some people don't think so but I'm talking about the animation so it's G2" and stuff like that. Like it's a discussion option.

Like it's a discussion option.This silly "the toys are G1 but the animation is G2" thing was introduced by Bronies who didn't want to admit they were wrong about something as trivial as MLP generations just because the icky girls with their cooties came up with it.Even Hasbroken remember they made a G2 computer game instead of a show
Aren't pony generations a purely fan-made and non-official concept anyway? Because in that case there would be no problem to define the toyline G2 as the taller ones that existed between G1 and G3, and the cartoon G2 as MLPT since it was between the G1 Megan verse and the G3 straight-to-video specials, and it would be just as good as any other definition.

MLP&F and Tales is G1. It would be like G6 fans erroneously calling EQG G5 and telling G4 fans they're wrong and don't know anything whatsoever.
I never cared much for the idea of "canon" for most characters anyway. It can really ruin storytelling.

I still don't understand why some people insist that categorizing generations by animation only came with G4.
