We already had a thread about this forever ago

Personally, I don't think we should put a "ban on pony threads."
Some people legitimately like My Little Pony. I don't understand it. I'm not going to attempt to understand it. However, I will treat those topics with the same respect that any other topic in The Flood deserves, as long as it follows the forum rules.
Admittedly, I do not voluntarily go into My Little Pony threads, simply because I can't think of a single thing that would interest me in those threads. I think a lot of people would be better off if they adopted the same approach, rather than make "drive-by attacks" on those who want to discuss it.
With that said, if anyone ever feels like they're being harassed in any thread, including MLP threads, feel free to report it to a moderator. I can't promise that I'll get to it right away, but I don't mind going through those threads if people are being jerks; however, some of you use the terms "trolling" and "flaming" a little too loosely. I think I have a pretty strict interpretation as to what constitutes as harassment, but sometimes it seems like people are reaching a little bit, even for my standards.
Topics like this come and go. A year ago it was "ban all Beiber threads," before that it was, "ban all Rock vs Rap threads." This is an ongoing trend in The Flood. Eventually, MLP will be off the hot seat and you guys are going to want us to ban another topic. Believe it or not, people want to legitimately talk about things that they like, even if you can't understand why they like it. Those topics shouldn't receive any special treatment, either.
Fluffy probably saved the thread, I should ask him.
