My fellow Bronies and Pegasisters,
I have seen the horrors of cyber bullying leading to suicide, which never solves any problems. You need to know that no matter what fandom we belong to, there is someone who can help you out even in your darkest hours. In fact, the Thomas the Tank Engine series has a wonderful song written about being friends through thick and thin.
The story behind this-I had been going through a rough patch in life. My grandfather passed away and many people in my school took to bullying me saying things like "You know, your grandfather passed away because he couldn't stand a retarded fucker like you" and "He died to get away from your pathetic excuse of a life" and "just kill yourself you disgraced fucker".
I had said something to a friend who was in the Thomas the Tank Engine community about this and as a gesture of goodwill, linked this to me and he suggested I listen. I did so and he told me that we'll get through. Another song I was linked during this time
And as another sign of goodwill, someone actually did something *I wish I could find it again* and the something was he drew my favourite type of steam engine-a Southern Railway Unrebuilt Light Pacific
pulling a goods train and being banked over Gordon's hill by Henry. Ever since that day, I had gone on and look at where I am now, here with you all. While the fandom is in a slump right now, I have every faith we'll pull through. Please keep thinking that you have friends all around you.
Best of wishes
North Western Railway Alicorn
