Majority of people live in a city or towns. Country life and especially USA related cowgirl mentality is alienating a lot of newcomers. While our generation created by Faust was very familiar with IndianssVsCowboys and family values/conservatist ideas, the millenial generation is more familiar with black pop stars and urban life in a city. And every country has more city people than countrymen, it make sense to adjust Applejack to a more relatable common citizien while give Fluttershy some of the country/animal subplots.

I hope the fandom will be happy but given the amount of drama I’ve been seeing in regards to G5 Applejack, part of me is really doubting that. Plus I’m in the Transformers and Star Wars fandoms so I’m familiar with how long drama can last when stirred up properly (sometimes over even the tiniest benign things).

Applejack is like the Living Fossil of the franchise.
I know. But the writers just don’t seem to know how to get her to work. She was actually the firs Pony I recognized and stood out in G4 when I first saw her with her distinctive hat in a anime fandom forum. At that time I was wondering what these cute ponies popping out everywhere at the time when the Pony meme was fresh and hot meant.

Which is a shame ‘cause AJ has shown plenty of her own colorful character traits (her competitiveness, her extreme love of trees, and her more adventurous cowgirl nature, just to list a few) that I think were severely under-utilized throughout most of the series, so she didn’t get to shine as much as the others.
I don’t understand what’s so wrong with this Applejack? Yeah she’s a bit boring but she isn’t a bad character.
I don’t think G4 AJ was in anyway poorly designed at all. She is a great character.
Just that the other 5 seem to be more colourful in character than J is.

There’s no deleted images recently that I think match what you’re talking about. PM me the image and I’ll look for it. As for here, lets leave this comment section for this image.

I’m not sure what specific image you’re talking about. But literally none of the images you’ve uploaded have been deleted, aside from 1 which was a duplicate.
Also not sure what you mean by “pre-block”.
