Usually we have at least a few weeks between crazy people publicly badgering the show staff to ridiculous lengths. Just this week we had the case of DinoNoms barraging Amy Keating Rogers with accusations of "Transmisogny" and "Bigotry" (both accusations are completely baseless). Already, we have another contender for the "why are you even on twitter" award, "Silvi Cultrix". Silvi here believes that she is a writer and collaborator for My Little Pony, and that she is not receiving the credit that she so deserves. She is even claiming plagiarism of her efforts.
On what basis?
Silvi believes that she worked with Lauren Faust to create the character of TreeHugger in the Season 5 episode "Make new friends but keep Discord". She believes this despite the tiny detail that Lauren Faust hasn't worked on My Little Pony since Season 2.
Let's spend a day at the circus shall we?
It all began a few days ago when SilviCultrix tweeted this gem "Writing this episode made me so happy!".
Now at first glance you would think, maybe she meant to type "watching" or "seeing", but no. It becomes very quickly apparent she is dead serious that she means "writing".
It takes a few days, but eventually the tweet is brought to the attention of M.A. Larson, who - based as ever - promptly tells her where to shove it.
That's the end of it right?
Oh come on, if it were, you wouldn't even be reading about it on Horse News.
Nope. Apparently Silvi has been propagating these lies all year, claiming all the way back in FEBRUARY that she was working - With Faust - on Season 5 of My Little Pony.
Here is where she claims to have invented Tree Hugger.
She even broadcasted this to her facebook followers, on top of her 9000 twitter fans.
Why would she even think that she had a part in writing this episode?
Well...we're still trying to figure that out. From what we can gather it was because Lauren had asked for some help with research about what modern hippies look like.
This was on July 7th of 2014 which SilviCultrix had evidently replied to with her other account, that bears her real name "Angela McEwen".
None of this changes the fact that these tweets are completely unrelated to My Little Pony, as Lauren Faust hasn't worked on the show in nearly 4 years, and certainly had no role in the design of Tree Hugger, or the episode in question.
Angela won't let pesky things like "facts" deter her from getting the recognition she so rightfully deserves, and spent most of yesterday claiming plagiarism and worse to her 9300+ followers.
Oh of course.
It's all starting to make sense.
Yes. Shes hinting at causing self-harm over this.
It goes on like this for a long time. And no matter how many times she's informed that the scenario she's proposing is impossible, she continues to tell people that the MLP staff are liars and that her "work" was stolen. Both of these are serious accusations for a creative team working on a television program.
Be sure to check back as we're sure theres more gems to come.
Typical tumblr.
Damn, what triggered those Tumblrinas?
ReplyDeleteExistence.
DeleteEverything.
DeleteI'm surprised they aren't triggered by their own reflection in the mirror. Yet.
If their "own reflections" was a trigger, there wouldn't be Trans peeps on Tumblr.
DeleteSide note: I know not all transgendered people are bigoted attention-whoring morons. This was just directed at the ones on tumblr who are.
Christ that Silvi chick must be autistic as fuck. She's not part of the show staff, but this should be a reminder to never allow fans to work on the show. EVER.
DeleteAtmosphere.
Deleteseems like another tyipical reason to fight on the internet again
Delete(grabs some popcorn and some burritos just in case)
Well she certainly has enough autism for 20 stereotypical bronies. I feel like that's the case with most tumblr users (non art blogs at least). For all the autism we have to offer, it pales in comparison to a single tumblr user.
ReplyDelete"I think we should leave crazy alone": Best response that any of the show staff have offered to this drek in recent memory. The response of people like this and their ability to soapbox their insanity through 'democratic' platforms like Twitter has got to be one of the most depressing aspects of being a creator of media in the public spotlight. I can't imagine how any of the writers find it in themselves to write cute stories about friendship, tolerance and being perpetually nice when subjected to this shit. Timestamp it and watch for the passive-aggressive spillover in their output.
ReplyDeleteOn another note, while I appreciate Horse News 'reporting' this kek, does anyone think it might be better to pull an EQD when it comes to obvious attention-seeking loons like this and pretend that they don't exist? Maybe just let them scream in their echo-chambers/straightjackets for a while rather than feeding them with oxygen/attention that's really driving this behavior? I know it's (somewhat) hilarious for the cringe factor, but covering every insane resident of Tumblr (even only relating to this fandom) would take a staff of thousands.
I like reading about fuckery like this. Makes me feel better about my own life.
DeleteThat's what makes Horse News different to EqD. HN reports on everything EqD won't (including but not limited to con drama, Twitter drama, Tumblrinas going full retard, mlp sex toys, /mlp/ happenings, /pone/ happenings, completely fake drama...). HN will let its readers down if they don't report on situations like this.
DeleteYeah, I guess you're right- it's like terrorism: the media has to report it even if that's exactly what the dipshits responsible want. I can't help but feel like it's a total waste of time and attention for everyone involved though; there are plenty of people deserving of media attention for being creative/helpful/decent human beings. People like Angela deserve to be unknown and ignored more than anything.
DeleteI do appreciate HN, and it's willingness to cover the more 'interesting' side of the never ending ride that is pone fandom- I just hate to see people like this get an audience, even if it is a crowd of tomato-throwers.
silvi here is a fucking troll nothing more nothing less
ReplyDeleteThe crazies are really coming out of the woodwork lately.
ReplyDeleteI love it.
This person is hilariously stupid. Thx horse-news for this laugh, I needed it.

DeleteTime to quit the Fandom
ReplyDeleteI know we've all been around the bend several times by now in regards to autists in this fandom.
ReplyDeleteLet this dumbass serve as a reminder that you don't need a hairy neck to be an embarrassing sperg. Hell, these kinds of dipshits tend to be the most embarrassing of them all more often than not.
This chick is crazy, and it looks like long term crazy. I get it: #notalltrannies, but geez are they dependable. Crazy wiccan lesbian M/F trans. Sweet comet of doom, I hope you arrive soon.
ReplyDeleteSometimes I feel really bad for trans people. Their hormonal stuff is usually the reason why they are very unstable, and I understand that it typically isn't a thing they can control.
DeleteThen they go on to spout inane shit like the gays and lesbians are now a privileged class since they can marry in the United States, and that a guy simply wearing a dress (even in a comedic fashion) is literally transmisogyny, and then I don't feel all that bad.
Their "community" is more like a Thunderdome of conflicting opinions and ideas that almost none of them can simply take as opinions or ideas. There's no gray area AT ALL when it comes to talking trans stuff, either with them or amongst them.
The trans community as a whole really doesn't have any positive public face that I've seen. For sure, being the final letter of LGBT has given them some legitimacy, and through LGBT organisations they do have advocates and representation, but when I think about just the trans community on their own, I really can't think of any famous trans people that I actually respect. All that flitters across my mind are the names of endless Tumblr lolcows and SJWs.
DeleteI wish I could ignore this fact and remain unbiased, because I know that there are relatively normal trans people out there. But despite my best efforts, I have developed a prejudice. If a trans person doesn't identify as either male or female, and hasn't fully transitioned, then most of the time, I just assume now that they're crazy. And the funny thing is, I don't even feel bad about having this prejudice, because I'm constantly being proven right. It's a stereotype, but it's held true in every real-life and online interaction I've ever had or witnessed. I don't know how to keep giving the benefit of the doubt after all this.
First racism.. now this. A lot of crazy people on twitter against the staff lately.
ReplyDeleteMake New Friends But Keep Discord is still the worst episode ever. It only
ReplyDeletereach 307k views. Discord is overated and the children doesn't like him. He's dumb, he's stupid, he's retarded, and he's evil. And we went him back into a villain and stay like that. Fluttermac shipping rules! Fluttercord shipping sucks and a nightmare. And it's a worst gala episode ever. And Twilight's wings is got it go, it's still racist.
For a person who hates Discord so much, you sure are a great purveyor of disharmony. It's a shame he isn't real, because I get the feeling that he'd LOVE you.
DeleteDiscord is the master of chaos and his true love is Queen Chrysalis. And their the perfect couples.
DeleteChrysalis is queen of a race of delicate buglike creatures whose continued survival is dependant on them being universally obedient to her will. It's perfect order, the literal opposite of everything Discord loves and fights for, and he tried to kill the Tree of Harmony for far less than that. This is why shipping is fucking retarded.
DeleteDude, you need to respect the shipping crossover fans. They decided what ever they want. Like the Chairman and CEO of NASCAR Brian France said "Have at it, boys and girls."
DeleteI'm sorely tempted to make a fake twitter account just to mess with the staff. I'm going to get all angry over some unbelievably trivial thing, like M.A. Larson borrowing my pen in the 4th grade and never returning it, and just keep calling him a Nazi and refer to him as "mein fuhrer".
