You are certainly entitled to your opinion, but I think you are neglecting to consider a very important factor: If the bronies are so obnoxious about their fandom, why on Earth would they stop obsessing over it if the show changed? If anything, you'd just get the same fandom doing exactly what they're doing now, while constantly complaining about the state of the show and perhaps being even more obsessive to show that they won't give up that easily. (Think about it: How many Magic players constantly complain about the state of the game and how much better it used to be, while still playing Magic, posting on Magic forums, etc.? Why would the bronies be any different?) That sounds considerably more obnoxious, does it not? So there is literally no point to ruining a show that many people of a variety of ages and genders enjoy. Bronies aren't going anywhere, so you're better off just ignoring them if they bother you that much.
I said I'd like if the show magically stopped appealing to them and they ceased to exist as a fanbase, not that changing it would cause that to happen.
How would they go about doing such a thing? By making the plots simpler and the characters less deep? It already has cuteness, pink things, animals, princesses, rainbows, and cupcakes, all the things associated with little girls' interests. Lauren Faust, the show's creator, said that it really bothers her how our society views stuff for little girls as stupid and worthless to everyone else, even though no one minds if adults are interested in shows aimed at young boys. You should think about the underlying sexism in saying MLP needs to change to only appeal to little girls.
I don't particularly care about any perceived sexism or gender issues. I just find bronies to be the most obnoxious fan base in existence and would like it if their show stopped appealing to them completely, meaning no more bronies.
Actually, Im more affraid of disney messing with mlp
I'd actually be perfectly okay for them changing it so it can't possibly be interpreted as a show for any demographic other than little girls.
Anyway, Disney seems to be expanding itself a fair bit in recent years, moving from just making childrens' animations to a whole range of different media. I wonder what'll happen with the game if they decide to step in with WoTC. Like some of the other people in this thread have said, maybe abolish the reserve list, print dual lands and have silly tie-ins with Kingdom Hearts? There's many possibilities.
The concept I came up with a friend when we were designing a wedge set is that the
"base" colour is trapped by its enemies. Shards were harmonious because they were governed by an allied colour, but wedges are the opposite. For example, the RWU wedge we designed was mostly covered by sea. Merfolk and Avian were the dominant tribes of the wedge, with goblins being put at a severe disadvantage in the world. They only had small islands for land, and had to make use of bridges and canoes in order to move around the world.
I've just been wondering, I've noticed people mention deck thinning when referring to fetchlands and a couple of cards like Manamorphose. Does it make enough of a difference to warrant the use of cards like Manamorphose outside of a combo deck? Or is it only a slight difference?
Australia in the English empire was always my favorite for prison improvement myself.
Being Australian myself, I know there were a lot more immigrants than just convicts who came to Australia during those days. You also have to take into account that so much as stealing a loaf of bread or handkerchief could get you deported out of Britain...
There are some crime gangs and whatnot, as well as Bikie gangs (those guys are pretty scary). It would be interesting to make a comparison between them and your given American crime gangs. I will research this further and get back to you.
Because they have guns, but if you take away guns (which would just be from the law abiding citizens) they would choose the next available weapon. Unless you live in a country that has been reprogrammed for the past 50-100 years that guns are bad.
That didn't happen when the gun laws were reviewed here in the 90s. People didn't have their guns taken off them only for them to arm themselves with medieval weaponry. And it was only in the last twenty years that these laws were enforced, not 50-100 years. Then again, the difference here is that guns are heavily reinforced in American culture.

Rumor is the American spelling. Rumour is also a perfectly legitimate way of spelling it.
More on topic, I sincerely doubt Jace will ever be unbanned. I think some people still have bitter memories of Jace.standard.
