the porblem with how rainbowdash is written, and the mane six as well, and why they dont deserve as much flak as they get · 4:15am Sep 1st, 2019

I've noticed a lot of people seem to hate RD or some other member of the mane six or some other character due to how they acted in certain episodes, and while I have those frustrations myself, I feel like people are taking this too seriously, and putting it on the characters when in reality, its on how piss poorly Hasbro manages the MLP writing team.

see, as far as I understand it, the mlp writing team gets its members shuffled around a lot, and there are different writers for different episodes, even within a single season, which is an awful choice. Think of it this way, your writing a fanfic, and you finish the first chapter, but then a different writer takes over and writes the next chapter, who has a different vision, and who doesn't get tp properly consult with you, and this happens a few times before you get called in again to write another chapter or two down the road, making sure the continuity doesn't have huge errors is would be hell, and on top of that, your on a time crunch.

This is the situation, as far as I know, that the MLP writing crew is in. hasbro is a toy company, not a media company, making sure this team is well managed is sadly not a high priority for them, and frankly, impressed with how well they have held the continuity together. Does this mean the issues that are there are null, and that people criticisms are null? hell no, I'm just trying to give people perspective so they dont get lost in the negative, and lose sight of how good these characters are when they are written well. I know Rd is often written bad, but the version fo her she is meant to be, without the sloppy writing, is what I look up too and enjoy, and why she is one of my favorite characters.

We can't say issues dontxist, but we can't let them jade and blind us to good things either by overly focusing on them
