This short story tells what happened after the episode, Fame and Misfortune and how all the ponies outside the Friendship Castle handled themselves.

*This is not to be taken on a serious note and it is NOT against our fan base. This is just my prediction on what happened after the episode.*

Well done, buddy! Another very good written one-shot! I've saw the episode and I guessed that most of the comments some of the ponies made were sort of a little similar to everyday fan comments! Also, love your second OC!

Thank you for enjoying this story! :)

So

Can we get an epilogue of Celestia desperately trying to swim through an ocean of friendship letters?

"I know I said I missed Twilight's reports, but I didn't want this!"

Maybe some other time.

I'm surprised their allies that live in town didn't try nad get them to stop.

Seriously, I think this would have gotten SOME attention. (Heck, maybe even have them learn about how to NOT make a doof out of the people around them. Especially when the town itself is being torn apart by these rabid fans)

This made me feel a lot better after I watched that episode. Thank you so much for writing this!

I think this would've made the episode A little better, but I honestly don't like the episode one bit for these reasons:

I consider the "Flawless" song to be The ONLY Good thing out of that awful episode, but I thought that the show wasn't going to take valid criticisms from the fandom anymore. They could have purely celebrated the show again like episode 100. But instead, they decided to focus on the negative side of the fandom.

The references to criticisms from the fans to me were too old/not really relevant, almost 3 to 4 years old and The jokes could have been more sophisticated. What Hasbro is aiming for is the audience's cheap reaction. The fandom is so hungry for official fandom recognitions or fan services, whenever somepony says "Twilight was better before she got wings", or Derpy shows up on the screen, they flip. It was too easy to impress some audiences.

Everything might have worked if the episode was well made and fun. I think it wasn't. And the ending was just terrible whatever perspective you want to take it. So the writers want us to accept that they're not Flawless? I'm not saying that's A bad lesson, but the way it was executed in the F&M episode made it look like A bad lesson.

Being yourself and making excuses that nobody is perfect are two different things. Characters having flaws were never part of the criticism. That's what the writers thought the criticism was.

I also hate that they called M.A. Larson just to put his name on the credits for the name value and he didn't actually come up with those ideas. I also found the episode to be a staple of the pride & hubris of the later show-runners. I still hate the F&M episode to this day because The Mane 6 never deserved the terrible treatment from Ponyville.

Do you guys agree or disagree with me on that?

And personally everyone acting like these weren't real people who were just as real as them and not perfect either was just ridiculous. They do understand what non fiction means right?

I want to start out here by saying that the episode wasn't this horrible thing that everyone says it is. It is one of my favorite episodes because they make back handed remarks about parts of the fandom that annoys the living daylights out of me and this episode highlighted the negative aspects of those fans. I will forever have that one elderly mare's voice stuck in my head, "Twilight was better before she got wings!"

Regarding the story though, it seems like they are talking about fictional characters here when the very ponies they were talking about were in the castle that they had all gathered around. I am glad to see they all learned something though and hopefully the lesson sticks with them.
