Sometime, vocal majority do exist too.
But their own comments is a far worst thing that what they do with the vote system. |

single "moraldouches" have no vote power
if you're assuming it's all forced then there is some crowd controll in action if not, that's their normal reaction |

Ummm if they were moral douches, why do they still include the saucy images?
Besides, they're moral douchebags because they wanna keep the sanctity of a kid's show. Yeah, I know they can get 34'd to oblivion, but I think it's the most 34'd kids show out right now. |
| WatermelonRat #1420035 1 month ago |
Could someone point me in the direction of some examples of said moraldouchery? Admittedly I'm not an avid reader of the comment section so I've potentially missed a lot, but from what I have read I think their reputation here is exaggerated. |
| PhilSrobeighn #1420038 1 month ago |
It was my understanding that the moral majority translated well into Bronydom, especially on a well-moderated site like EqD.
Part of the reason I come here. I don't come to the internet to hang around the same people I hang around IRL. |

If you read their news fairly often you can often catch subtle hints that Sethisto kind of hates his own site readers to an extent. Sometimes mentioning things like "before ponies became such srs bsns" and such. Oh, and here's when they featured an artist spotlight on JJ:
http://www.equestriadaily.com/2012/01/community-spotlight-13-john-joseco.html Everyone there had such White Knight outrage he actually said: Sethisto said... [Reply To This Comment] Yeesh you guys are dicks! January 16, 2012 12:52 AM |

@ProffessorOfHoers This is what I mean when I say that their reputation is exaggerated. Out of the first thirty comments on the JJ spotlight, only one was outright hateful towards him and three or four just seemed kind of uncomfortable with some of his work without actually condemning him or launching into a tirade. The rest were very positive, even enthusiastic, about him, yet you say "everyone there had such white knight outrage". |

You really do love to defend them and I love to bash them.
If you read the whole comment section you'll see it evolved into a tiny shitstorm... and that's common there. Over and over again through their comment voting system, from gathering support to change derpy, to tattling to Hasbro to get Tara to have to take down her own private twitter post. Of course it's not EVERYONE but it's a sizable and concentrated group that runs things there. |
| ProfessorOfHoers #1420171 1 month ago |
^And that said group is not above doing everything possible including contacting Hasbro or people who work on the show to cater to their whims. |

What do we have here? Looks like Self-Priveled Morality-Hating Hypocritical Internet Black Knight #349573.
What can we expect? More vapid bile pouring from their human-like holes about how principles and preferences are EVIL and against their objectively correct principles and preferences. What is it worth? Absolutely nothing, because they don't really have an argument to convey. |

Go to EqD dor the news, do not stay for the community and if by some chance you happen to comment on something saucy, even if it is just "LoL thats hilarious" accept that you will be down voted into a hole.in.the ground, and atleast a couple of comments about your "questionable morals" |

This is the same person who claims that "moralfags" are sub-human. Keep that in mind when you hear his second-hand recounts of how he was victimized. |
| WatermelonRat #1420220 1 month ago |
I wouldn't say that I "love to defend them" so much as believe in nuance over accentuating the negative. I read further down, and only three or four people joined sovbrony in actively denouncing JJ. The rest were mainly supportive with a few who expressed mild discomfort with some of JJ's content. That jerks exist there I do not dispute, but the broadness of the brush you're painting them with is disproportionate to the number of troublesome individuals I've seen. I happened to be around for a few of the Derpy and Tara Strong twitter discussions, and I saw the same thing there: a handful of troublesome individuals and a majority that were mostly reasonable. |
| ProfessorOfHoers #1420228 1 month ago |
^Well, it's good that we discuss things like this because the more often it's done the more it effects it's reputation and cements it's status. So, it's all good.
People that love that site will love it no matter what and people who don't like it's community are not going to suddenly like it either. |
| DaxRattler #1420231 1 month ago |
When did i ever claim they were sub human? I was pointing out a simple fact, if you comment on a pic with adult humor in any way that is not negative you will be punished for it. I never accused them of being sub-human. Annoying as fuck; but thats it. |
| John #1420236 1 month ago |
There would be no "white knights" if people wouldn't draw horse porn. If you hate people because they care about "morals", then something's wrong with you. I'm glad that people on EQD downvote perverts. It's the public face of our community and I don't want other people to think that every brony is one of them (one of those perverts). |
| WatermelonRat #1420251 1 month ago |
^^^And what about people like me who neither love nor hate it but know that generalizations can just as easily be made about the ponibooru community or even bronies as a whole? |

When you repeatedly insisted on differentiating between "White Knights" and "regulars", with "white knights" referring to those that expressed any tiny amount of dislike for a particular image, which you assumed was due to moral reasons. And you demonized those moral reasons without ever addressing them specifically, as if they were immoral merely by virtue of being moral reasons. And what's worse, nobody is willing to admit that people who have morals or preferences have a right to exist. Instead, they're trying to label them a "bad hateable MINORITY" in order to further marginalize them from the in-crowd. Much easier than listening to them. |
| ProfessorOfHoers #1420256 1 month ago |
^I don't know. What about you? Beats me. |
| WatermelonRat #1420275 1 month ago |
What I'm getting at is that there's a middle ground. I certainly prefer ponibooru, but I don't hate other pony sites. I don't mind the more risque art (and even enjoy a fair bit of it) but I don't begrudge people who are uncomfortable with it so long as they are civil (unlike John here or sovbrony at EQD). |
| ProfessorOfHoers #1420282 1 month ago |
@255
I won't assume to speak for Dax but I will address your statement none the less speaking only for myself. What we have here is called a "dialogue." People have the right to say their piece and downvote opinions into oblivion. People then also have the right to be irked by that and speak out against it. Then, those former we had mentioned have the right to redress those complaints (as you are doing) or add new ones. Then, the latter party can once again make their case and address the situation. That's how it works. The reason people are upset by "morals" is because they are invariably being pushed upon them. They are essentially being told they are in the wrong for finding humor, titillation, or whatever in an image or concept. They are judged and downvoted and otherwise marginalized and so take offense. Then, when the shoe is on the other foot the "White Knights" (so to speak) are FLABBERGASTED that people are so immoral and hate their great and wonderful morals so much. After all, they are just trying to "protect" the fandom from it's own members. (albeit the members they don't like.) So it goes on and on in a circle. The good thing about Ponibooru though is it can be derailed with gifs: ![]() |

But clopper do have a moral too, just different from EQD basher. Some clopper can't watch cmc porn for exemple. What allow those anti-everything people of EQD to claim that their moral is an universal truth that should be enforce in our fandom? |

Equestria Daily is the most visited site of this fandom, therefore it is probably visited by children as well.
A post like Tara's is not all that bad.I thought it was pretty cool. But a post like that drawfriend with Cherilee and Big Mac is too heavy, and unecessary. |

Alright operation will most likely end badly is a go.
@296 and 338 I never said I want R34 to be posted on EqD, I get that it's the public face and we want it presentable. But when Seth puts up art that that has the barest of adult humor like the following
People should be allowed to laugh at it and not be Neg Rep to minus 20.
It is a satirical movie poster, there is no serious intent to harm or arouse, it is only for laughs. I don't mind that people don't like it, half the shit that goes up on Ponibooru annoys me, So I ignore it and move on; I don't go flaming everybody that hangs in the fluffy pony threads. If it was R34 and people were bragging about how many times they clopped to it then sure, their outta line and feel free to go to town on them, But there has to be a limit to what is offensive and what is harmless tongue in cheek fun. Alright 255 next. You mistook who I was targeting with my statements, The people who expressed dislike for the image I don't really care about; they are free to do so. It was the people that punished any body who admitted to liking image 20 that I was annoyed with, are they not allowed to find a intentionally funny piece of art humorous? If me calling them white Knights offends ya then I'm sorry give me another name to reference them and I'll use it. It was merely a tool to get my point across.(rather then say those guys and them dudes all the time) |

"Moralfags" are not just a vocal minority. They are a silent majority. Its just cloppers think they actually have a place in this fandom, but they don't. The fact that they still exist is testament to how silent said majority actually is.
If they actually gave a damn, those who find clop to be essential or anything more than a guilty pleasure would be treated as outcasts, and rightly so. |
