the apple jacks look all the same

lazy sexy closet cosplay
ironically not sexy, usually tubby or no hip to waist ratio with average face

[Anonymous No.7390309]

>>7390292
Because the cosplays are generally lazy and based off of fanart and nobody creates their own versions. Twilight Sparkles are always in school uniforms and Aj is always in Daisy Duke looking shit. You have the hambeasts there, ruining shit as usual and the Autistics.

Seriously, if you want your answer, go look in /mlp/. It's people who think that real women will never be as cute and sexy as ponies. That isn't even me shitting around.

sounds like /a/ with 2d

but aside from that arnt the bronies supposed to be more realistic to people and women? unlike /a/. I got the impression bronies are really attracted to other female fans and pretty girls in general

[Anonymous No.7390326]

>>7390309
I also forgot to mention that we have pox faced, fat ratchet looking girls cosplaying as Rarity. She's supposed to be the most fashionable and self conscious character out of the entire cast and yet I see the most lazy and disgusting, uninspired designs on these girls. It's pathetic. You're not fabulous. You're trailer park trash with diva issues.

Uh, no. Especially not ones from /mlp/. They hate anthro versions and human. Any female fan who outs herself in there is dubbed an attention whore. My friend had a kid yell at her at our college because he saw the pin on her bag and he was all, "IT'S NOT FOR GIRLS!1!1!1"

I don't even watch the show but I ended up ghosting into the BronyCon rave in summer 2012 on a YOLO mini-road-trip with a close friend. My eyes... they saw some shit. Never ever again. But it was a great experience just for the adventure of getting there and back in the middle of the night with my friend. But the con itself... nah son.

Nothing good can come from gathering that many autistic pedophile furries in one place. I'm fairly certain the idea for pony conventions were thought up and organized by the devil himself.
Well played satan, well played.

[Anonymous No.7390727]

>furries

arnt those different than bronies? I mean I know there are separate cons for furries specifically, but i guess the ones in the pony fur suits are furries

Not even satan himself could come up with something that vile. It must be the work of something far worse, like god himself.

I've been to a UK Brony convention, it was actually not that bad.

Its made me come to the conclusion that American bronies have the monopoly on spaghetti.

[Anonymous No.7391311]

Howard Stern did a piece on Brony Con. It pretty much sums up what most people think of the fandom and related stuff including the cons.

[Anonymous No.7391317]

Brony cons are the same as furry cons, except a little more narrow-focused.

Meaning, people are only there to fuck someone.

Went to a couple with my little sister. We both like the show and everyone was pretty nice overall. I wouldn't call myself a brony (or whatever girl bronies are called) but everyone seemed to like the con and my sister got a plastic figurine as a present.

[Anonymous No.7391387]

>>7390292
I signed up to volunteer at my local brony con because fuck if you think I'm going to be paid to be oogled at. Got to buy all the toys and special release cards I wanted by pretty much doing nothing but walking around all day. After seeing it with my own eyes... I would never pay to go to a brony con

[Anonymous No.7391412]

Nothing is more embarrassing than going to a con and seeing soldiers there in fucked up ACUs. Ive had to tear down two privates for wearing that thunderbolt horse shit patch. Made them do pushups in front of a merchant stand

[Anonymous No.7391517]

What the fuck is wrong with you people? Nobody is forcing any of you to go to this convention if you don't like imperfect autists talking about and showing off their love for ponies.

As a fan of this show I'd like to attend this convention, and no some fat chick thinking she's oh so fab cosplaying as Rarity REALLY does not ruin my con experience, nor the experiences of any other non-busybody whose concerns aren't only focused on being a condescending prick. M'kay people? Chill out.
This con has its flaws, but there's higher concerns than obnoxious cosplayers.

Joined a friend at the brony meet at MCM. it was pretty much like any other meet up and everyone was cool and mostly in costume

I feel if you went to a con dedicated solely to MLP you would just get bored quickly, especially if you're not going to at least cosplay something and join a photoshoot and the like

/cgl/ is one of few boards that won't throw a fit at the sight of a technocolored horse and /cgl/ is the con-experienced board.

All the same, stay away from brony cons OP.

Is it?

I just haven't seen anyone say on this board that they're going to cosplay from MLP, nor have I seen any threads about it. I just sort of thought the very mention of MLP outside of /mlp/ was grounds for ridicule.

[Anonymous No.7391989]

>>7391958
I've seen many threads about humanized ponies on here.
But /cgl/ is the con board, and dressing up as ponies would qualify as cosplay. So regardless, /cgl/ is the correct board for this. I'm a little shocked you haven't seen a pony thread on /cgl/. I'd say you're either new here, or just come so rarely your opinion means nothing.

Guess what guys. No matter what con you go to, you're going to find socially awkward people and cosplayers who you don't find sexually attractive. If either is the worst thing you encounter at a con, then you're fucking lucky.

>>7392014
>Have you actually been to one?
Well, if you read my post
>As a fan of this show I'd like to attend this convention
Even if I haven't, I'd like to because it's relevant to my interests. And since hambeasts and autists generally don't bother me, then the only possible grievances I can imagine having with this con are the events/guests and the way it's run.
I don't waste my time sitting around and bitching about the conduct of people I have no control over and who I can't change. If the people turn out to be that bad? Then I simply have the option to not go again.

The only thing that's stopping me is the distance, because I've never commuted for more than 6 hours in my car before and I -don't- think this is a convention worth the hassle of a short plane ride.

[Anonymous No.7392117]

>>7392023
Because furries know how much they're hated on the internet. Most know better than to try to start a serious discussion about one of their conventions on 4chan...of all places.
The difference is that mlp hasn't been chased out of the internet, yet.

And both of those attitudes are wrong.
Vendettas against creepy perverts, attention whores, and assholes in those fandoms? Fine by me--I'd say that for any fandom.
However, some edgy armchair warriors pissing on a generalized group of people because they don't know how to articulate the differences between average fans (who do nobody harm) and creeps? Nah, these kinds of people can go fuck themselves.

[Anonymous No.7392131]

>MLP hasn't been chased out of the internet yet
I guess I just feel like unless you're on a site specifically meant for MLP (like... Equestria Daily? I think that was one of the sites), then you will be mocked for even mentioning that you like it because of "teh evil patriarchal neckbeard dudebronies", who apparently are all one and the same and make up the entirety of the fanbase.

At least, that's how I've seen people generally perceive all of them to be.

[Anonymous No.7392287]

>>7392131
True, the fandom is largely perfectly sane nice people. That's true for every fandom. But the problem bronies have in particular, that I have never seen to this degree, is that the awful stereotype minority is SO GODDAMN LOUD. Somehow, they find every single pony related post out there and unload their unholy sperg upon it. It may only be 10% of the fandom, but when that 10% is making 20 posts to every 1 sane fan's, it definitely seems like the majority.

[Anonymous No.7392628]

every time i post on /mlp/ I never get responses
that bored is surprisingly fast
also they also have a neet perception like /a/ does, they never leave their house and prefer 2d

it would be like asking /a/ if they go to a con, they would just complain about 3d

[Anonymous No.7405196]

>>7401054
Same here. I have a buttload of G1 and G2 design stuff and a ridiculous amount of generic unicorn and horse stuff and bronies get all weird about it. My friend has even had bronies approach her and try to talk MLP stuff to her, and she has literally no interest in ponies at all, she's an ex rodeo queen that wears rhinestone horseshoes and cowboy hats everywhere.

[Anonymous No.7405204]

>>7404589
Like was said earlier, the fedorafuckers are a smaller part. They're just the loudest, most active, and most identifiable part. They post EVERYWHERE, have no filter, and are the most likely to show up in shitty cosplay and mob together. They're also the ones most likely to attend cons and purposely look for other pony fans.

[Anonymous No.7406782]

So basically similar the "hardcore" parts of pretty much any fandom?
