@Docpony  
Yeah, that’s as stupid as the people who own Star trek copy righting the term trekie.  
@Beau Skunky  
I wish I could say it was people trying to make the fandom look bad, but… unfortunately…

@Beau Skunky  
Why is Mando hated?

@Beau Skunky  
Mando’s a nice guy, he’s just bad at dealing with the internet. 4chan, in this particular case.

@Silent Wing  
To be fair, they could have removed it with the reasoning “we don’t like you” and it still would have been in their right as the owners of the site.

I don’t believe the site has any right to do such things, because honestly, what ISN’T copywritten? They should wait for Hasbro to take it down so THEY can flaunt their legal dicks around. Zazzle should take a damn good look at themselves and see ALL the copy written stuff. If they blocked all of it, they’d loose site traffic, as well as ANY need to have the site. They’re being bias, and a bias site is a dead one.

@Cyborg_pony  
Yeah, Mando’s a nice guy, unless people start messing with him, and/or Sibsy. I don’t know why some can’t leave him (and anyone associated with him) alone…
 
Worst yet, I heard some were actually harrassing Michelle Creber’s family (yes as in Applebloom) over associating with Mando… Really NOT cool…

why must things be so stupid.Brony is a fan slang that has no more right to be copy writen than the word candy, but the people flipping out are not helping. We don’t even know whats happening yet. Why can’t we all be civil?

@Jarkes  
Yes, it’s true. Mando has been dating Sibsy for a while.

@Jarkes  
Mando is not one of those people, though.  
I respect your right to have an opinion, but I disagree.

@Cyborg_pony
 
…Wait, is he actually dating Sibsy? I thought that was just a silly fan thing people were doing…
 
Also, don’t forget Final Draft. No one likes him, not even his fellow EFN co-workers.

@Jarkes  
Well yeah, there’s Tinker’s actions and the Pink one, and a bunch of the feminist writers that just bash male fans. I just don’t see where the hate for Mando came from other then he’s popular and is dating or dated someone who worked on the cartoon.

@Cyborg_pony  
I would LOVE to go on a rant about him, but the mods would say that’s too “mean spirited”.Rule #0 is the most BS thing I’ve ever seen.

@Cyborg_pony
 
To be fair, some of those people DO deserve it. Mando is not one of those people, though.

@derpyisworstpone  
I agree with you 100%

@derpyisworstpone  
What the Hell is wrong with Mando? It seems a lot of people in this love to just piss on people that made a name for themselves in this fandom.

@Background Pony #FE38  
I know the mods here are more banhappy than moot.  
Braces for banhammer

@derpyisworstpone  
Be careful friend, saying stuff like that can get you banned here

@Mad Black  
Possibly. That’s pretty much what happened to Nintendo with the Youtube stuff and streaming, plus someone at Hasbro came through for Jan. It definitely seems like something a pissant lawyer would do to make a buck.

@Background Pony #CF35
 
This. This is what I think is happening, it’s just Zazzle wising up on a term that has clear connections to copyrighted material…

@Mad Black  
No, just people overreacting as usual.

@Mad Black  
Let’s hope that’s the case, because if not this could put Twilicorn and Derpygate to shame.

How much money do you want to bet it’s not because Hasbro has Brony under copyright, but because Zazzle knows that anything connected to the Brony tag probably involves MLP, and the last thing they want to get their asses involved in is a copyright issue with Hasbro?

My words go unheard…

Are we sure they claimed the word Brony for themselves? Or could it be, that just one of their lawyers got overboard with it, again?
