weesh Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 For those of you who haven't already see it, check out this wonderful video that Kunio posted.The video classifies bronies as the three types in the poll. Which, if any, do you relate to? Any issues with the classifications? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Originality Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 I guess I'd be a moderate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silentium Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 I'd say that I'm a moderate as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YourLittleBrony Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 I say moderate that turned into Creative. So yes, Im creative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PIJIN Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Obviously creative...It sucks that most are moderates or Hipsters, in my opinion.I think everyone should contribute to the fandom to help us grow in material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidnightBlackhorn Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Creative, due to my fanfic writing and whatnot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they are uninterested in writing/drawing/singing.I didn't mean it as in dislike them or anything because they don't produce content. Most of the people I know in real life and when I watch the show in Live Streams are moderates or hipsters and are really great people. I just think everyone should be creative in someway (Like image macros, not just writing/drawing/singing), MLP or otherwise. I guess I got a bit into my own philosophy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weesh Posted January 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 I just think everyone should be creative in someway (Like image macros, not just writing/drawing/singing), MLP or otherwise.Agreed. Personally, creativity is something that happens in games, work and in my volunteering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conor Colton Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 I'd say creative, verging on moderate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prizmatic Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Then again just to make sure I'm on the same page it would be nice to have a better explanation since I've seen the documentary I feel like I am not catching on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made the topic to see if people would have trouble self identifying with the three possibilities. I may have voted "moderate", but that was only because the other two didn't even make sense. I'm not sure that I am moderate in anything important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RarityDash Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Heh. Doubt any hipsters are going to label themselves as such. I dunno. These classifications seem kind of weird to me. Don't think any of them particularly suit me personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkspinePrime Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 I shudder at the thought of me being a hipster in anything, but I guess since I liked Friendship Is Magic before all of the hype...I have no choice in the matter...

weesh Posted January 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 From the video, the apparent definition of a hipster is someone who noticed the strong qualities of they show before it went mainstream. And that is the opposite of the real definition (a person who follows the latest trends and fashions). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huscarl Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Moderate I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverSwirl Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 I'm a creative with no real outlet skill excepting writing quality role play posts. Otherwise I'm a moderate to the core. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that is the opposite of the real definition (a person who follows the latest trends and fashions).I've been a brony for nearly two years and I'm more active with the shirts IRL than my presence online (I'm still 99% invisible for all practical purposes). I'm just not 'in somepony's face' I guess? Dunno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abc Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 i'd say im a creative, mainly because if theres any game that allows you to customize a character/gun/emblem mines gonna be pony related 99% of the time, ive also been trying to make things like pmvs and stuff, other than that ima moderate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elsporko Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 Obviously creative...It sucks that most are moderates or Hipsters, in my opinion.I think everyone should contribute to the fandom to help us grow in material.Frankly when I flex my creative arm its not going to be with somebody else's characters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lerian Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Moderate wishing he was creative.I'd love to be able to put something in but I am not 'artsy' in any way at all. I try to support where I can though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silentium Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Obviously creative...It sucks that most are moderates or Hipsters, in my opinion.I think everyone should contribute to the fandom to help us grow in material.1. Some people aren't creative because they find that doing so is stupid.I mean, some people think it's not a good idea to make art, songs, or fanfics about ponies. Some people even think that all of this fanwork is actually harmful to the fandom.2. Not everyone is creative, or has the ability to express the creativeness.Not everyone can draw, has access to the equipment to make music, or exactly creative in the writing department.For example, someone who really wants to make some electronica song can't due to not having a mixing table.3. Not all creative ideas will actually have any impact on the community.For example, if I were to make a metal song about ponies, it would only receive a few views in comparison to the electronica music, because the fandom is more into electronica than metal. Certain forms of fan made art and genres of fanfics and music will only do so well based on popularity. I could spend months on the song, have it be one of the best songs of all time, just to be shadowed by something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosewind Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 We all appreciate the show in different ways, often in many ways that define all of the traits the video is describing, and more. We should not short change ourselves as fans and fly just one banner. Fly them all!Or none at all, if that's okay you with you, that is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemesisPon3 Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Why creative of course! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
