"Not all bronies are like that!"
"It's only 1% of the fanbase!"
"Those are just stereotypes!"
"Just ignore them!"
"Every fanbase has bad fans!"
"It's just a loud minority!"
"Don't lump us all together!"

I see these same pathetic excuses all of the time on YouTube and DeviantArt, and they annoy the hell out of me. I'm talking about the rabid white knight bronies. The ones that stand up for the fanbase so valiantly that it comes off as arrogant, childish and inconsiderate. If you're a brony and proud of it, and you witness a brony behaving badly or acting obnoxious, don't just stand there defending yourself; that just makes it worse. Actually make an effort to let them know they're being rude. Good bronies are able to accept that the fanbase is full of bad eggs. And no, it's not a "tiny part of the fanbase". If it were a tiny part, rabid bronies wouldn't be so widespread, and you wouldn't have to constantly make these same, worn out excuses every time someone complains about their behaviour.

over 15 million of them and couple thousand act the way you describe so yes it is 1%, if I see anyone being a complete ass I question them about what the hell they're doing, in the end though, im not their sitter, i cant force them to do anything

If I see someone doing something they shouldn't, I will politely inform them that they should stop. Calling them "rabid" is a good way to look pretty arrogant yourself.

I still don't like using such a term, but the bigger problem is that people abuse the term, and have pretty much started using it to describe anyone who does something they don't like.

Is kinda true that people use it with whoever disagrees with them, but saying that he looks arrogant just for separating the crazed fans from the fandom wouldn't make much sense, in fact with that logic most of the western world would be arrogant if that was true.

To be fair, I believe Eternities is incredibly biased, or maybe just incredibly stupid. This stamp is proof of that, it's basically saying "I am right, and you should not try to debate my opinion!". Sickening, really.

One's biased towards his opinions, it's basic for debating, nor sickening or "stupid" (ad hominem there), plus that he explains his reasoning in the description.

Well, I'm afraid I personally find it to be pretty stupid, since we are throwing hateful opinions around. This stamp just really rubs me the wrong way, and does not paint Eternities in a good light for me at all.

To me it's not, he's pretty much calling them out for being so passive about it, they usually call themselves as "extremely nice", yet there are those screwed up fans and they "just ignore them" like ignoring is how stuff was ever solved. It just paints him to me as noticing the same problem, and somewhat agreeable.

Well, I think he only made this stamp to say that "I am right and anyone who disagrees is wrong", but fair enough.

Would you expect him to call them "bronies"? how would then there be differend from normal bronies and the crazed ones? calling them that is not exactly arrogance or judgement, is describing what it seems like
