The Blockland Bulletin [News Blog]

Okay it took me a while to find a story, but I've updated the blog with two new articles. Sorry if anyone was expecting an update today and missed it. :/

If you going to do an article about bromides you could at least find a picture of the right show.

Really shows how much "research" goes into this.

Brony > My Little Pony > Picture of My Little Pony

Sorry if its not the series you are watching, makes no difference. The research was fine.

It makes a big difference. Many bornies hate G1, especially the ones on the BL forums.

use this one it's better

But not all. The image illustrates the show, in relation to the content. Its an accurate picture. Saying the article is badly researched because I don't watch the show and can't define what series the image is from is stupid, especially since the article has nothing to do with the taste of bronies but rather the overall brand and programme they are into.

Saying the image is wrong is about as unbearable as when a comic nerd complains there is a continuity error in a picture of their favorite superhero.

I'm happy to fix any problems with articles; just find an actual problem, don't bitch for the sake. Cheers.

in relation to the content.

The context is a bunch of people mad about people who watch My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. that image is not Friendship is Magic.

No.

The article makes no reference to Friendship is Magic. In my research, there is no indication that Bronies are mutually biased towards a specific series. You don't want to get into an argument about the context or the angle used by the writer of the article, because I know what I wrote about. Please read the article next time.

Right now it see alike your idea of "research" is to find some gossip on IRC.

You don't actually understand the standards, nor research, TBB, its authors, and its articles put into practice. Since your logic is "image was off to what show I prefer, its all wrong" I think you are talking out of your depth right now. If you want to continue to have your say on what is published on TBB and suggest what needs to be changed, I suggest you change your attitude and rather than slag the blog over something trivial you decided to split straws about, make an actual complaint when you feel an article mis-represents a story.

I won't be saying it again. Brony is not exclusive to Blockland or a specific series, as far as I have found. If you'd like to prove me wrong, I suggest you cite multiple sources to backup your continually serious claims unless you want to be dis-regarded as a reader. Do not belittle the efforts I and past authors put into developing a story, you have very little grasp on them.

notice the lack of old gen content on the first two and how it's all about the new friendship is magic series

You need to cite where you get your I formation, especially if you are quoting a definition. The only thi I see cited is the IRC, so I can assume that was the only place you got your information.

Thank you for taking the time to prepare a proper complaint, which is actually helpful as opposed to Toms efforts which clearly have a hidden agenda.

In response to this, the article has changed the image to the photo you supplied. It is important to note, the article is entirely factual however and it was not a problem with the research nor the written works of the article and the article in no way misinformed its readers.

The image published was an oversight, and when written there was no understanding that the characters or artwork differed from series to series; such information was not necessary to look into when writing the article, only regular viewers of the show would be likely to understand the differences, and in this case it was trivial information that wasn't realized.

It is important that in the future, complaints are approached in a proper manner. If you are aggressive, Tom, in your approach you will hinder progress to fix any issues.
