Team Fortress 2
Problems with TF2 Items (Warning: Contains pony related subjects.)
Warning this will start off with a pony complaint that i have. No anti-brony comments or threats. Because there a serious waste of time.
So The MLP fandom somehow got into TF2 with an actual item. ( This is probably old news but i haven't been on THAT long.)
Anyway, the one item that Valve put in that relates to The MLP fandom, and it's the stupidest possible hat. They even had Heavy say things that could count as offensive to Bronies and Pegasisters,( or whatever you call them.) such as 'Everyone! Friendship is stupid magic!'.
While that isn't the most offensive thing out there, it's really insulting because 'professional's' put this thing in a game basically everyone plays. And who would want to where a hat like that? I wouldn't and I'm a Brony.
Now, you look at fan made skins, like the Spectrum Smasher reskin for the Baby Face's Blaster/Scattergun*, it actualy looks like a item someone would put into the game. If Valve had put something similar to that into the game, then even non-bronies would use it.(I think.)
So this is my opinion on it. you can comment if you want.
*see mlptf2mods.com or google mlp tf2 mods

Bronies incoming.
So, is Valve Anti-Brony?

Yup, that's pretty much how things start.

Nope, it's just a hat. It's also a Unicorn and from what I see on avatars, MLPs don't have horns.

Unless you get to the weird fanfic site of MLP.
But on topic, it's a unicorn since when are the MLP character unicorns? Or is it just because it looks like one that the brony side of TF2 is going crazy?

The hat has a horn. Ponies don't have horns.

That's what i'm saying, is it because it has a horn that MLP fans immidiatly associate with the show?

I actually have a couple friends who enjoy the show, and they don't care about it. I haven't seen the Magical Mercenary worn in forever.

In mlp, there are:

'Pony' (or 'Earth Pony'. These are pretty much regular ponies, they have jobs on the ground such as construction or farming.)

'Pegasus' (These have wings, they often have jobs that relate to flying such as weather control or mail service)

'Unicorn' (these have horns. They have jobs that are often delicate or precise, such as sewing)

and

'Alicorn' (These have wings AND horns. If you are an alicorn, then you are generally considered at least part-god. Alicorns are princeses and generally rule over the land.)




There are two races from MLP that have 'unicorn' horns.








Also, i care not for this hat, just pointing out some stuff.

EDIT: also there are changlings, biut they're more of a type of bug if anything.

some main and background ponies do have horns. And koala, in this instance your actually right. I did think that this was something offfensive. I have to stop jumping to conclusions, eh?
It's one of my flaws in life.

They could just be taking a humourous jab at the fandom. It's not like the game isn't a huge jocking mockery in itself, right?
True.
