If someone calls you a “G4 purist” report it. That doesn’t mean any example of it is going to be rule breaking - if you’re going onto a G5 image complaining about Twilight Sparkle’s perfect society being ruined and talking about how Hasbro hates G4 and G5 is literally an attack upon western society, then you’re the problem, not the people calling you a “G4 purist”. So if that happens, report it and we’ll look. Hard to speculate without an example.
And, if you start calling others “G5 bootlickers”, please do expect to receive a warning and, if appropriate, a ban.

We defend people who are attacked for being critical of G5 here pretty much every day in the last couple of weeks. No one here may attack someone else simply because they disagree about something. But there’s also a lot of criticism of G5 ‘as a theme’ on fan art, where people are shitting on artists for making G5 art and trying to get them to stop making any art of the new generation - so … depends what you mean by ‘being critical’. If you’re in the G5 thread talking about what you didn’t like about the movie, that’s fine, and if you’re not otherwise breaking rules if someone insults you for it then let us know with a report. If, on the other hand, someone is on a G5 fanart complaining about the theme of the image or bitching that the artist is even making G5 art, then that’s not an ‘ok’ way to criticize G5.
