Wasn't Twilight a princess before she became an alicorn? Cause she was the sister of technically 'Prince Shining armor'

Technically, yes; practically, no.
4001991 eh
4001992 Technically, through the family, yes.
As for practically, meaning as a princess (textbook definition) no.
A title that she gains through family doesn't hold any weight in political circles. When she was crowned a Princess, that changed.
4001997 I know what you meant. I was just wondering, no she wouldn't be able to do anything politic wise but she could have the title
4002000 yes. But that's all it is...a title,
4002004 some people just want the title but no work, so if she was like that she would be a happy camper
[insert picture of cute twilight camping]
4002007 yeah. But with that, there is a whole can of trouble that comes with that. For those who want the title but want to do no work, you can divide them into two camps: the self contained and the arrogant.
4002008 yep
4002012 Now this does lead to an interesting question: What would happen if Twilight slid to the Arrogant side? Would she still be an Alicorn, but stripped of her title or be stripped of her title and her wings?
4002019 hmm, interesting
4002020 it is
4002055 hmm
4002059 yeah. I view it like name plates on a loco. In Thomas the Tank Engine, to punish an engine, they would remove the name plates and put them on the dirtiest duties they could find. I'm thinking they'd do the same thing. While Twilight would remain an Alicorn, but her title would be stripped and she'd be put on the dirtiest jobs that the council could find until she learned her lesson.
Prime example
4002062 right, most likely she wouldn't be givin an alicorn title if she was like that
4002070 That is true. It's here for everyone to theorize
4002074 Yep~! XD
