Before I begin doing something stupid I like to say the some of you may of noticed that I revoked the submission of one of my stories. The reason is I'm fixing it, again. Plan A failed, so I'm going with Plan B. I'm also working on a secret project of mine that is in no way related to the Dark Shadow series

So what I really wanted to call out is what I have seen recently how many good stories are getting hated on because of a red and black OC. Its just sad, some of these character are good, but if the color of its fur and mane is either black or red, if its somehow related to the princesses, if its an alicorn, its an instant dislike for some stupid reason. Some of these characters have an interesting back story and amazing abilities. You can't give a pink and yellow pony such great powers or back story, so most of these characters through the eyes of the author the character seems red,black and an alicorn, unicorn or pegasus(you never see an earth pony cause their useless).

Just like my OC in one of my stories Dark Slash, I get the name is a bit wrong, but if you guys at least let me finish this part of the Dark Shadow series you will find out Dark Slash is not his real name. And if you are smart enough you realize his mane is white not red, and that he's an alicorn not by choice, his a Pegasus, so get it right.

I get the fact that he is a bit overpowered, but all will be explained in the other Dark Shadow stories, this will explain why he want to be so powerful.

So this a problem seen very much and my OC is an example. And I see people losing good stories just because of a story. Who said the characters or the main characters matter. We are bronies we only and mostly care for background ponies. The character is not important, only the plot is, unless the plot relies on the character. That's just my way of seeing it, I don't care for your opinion, nearly no one important does.

So to all those people who write stories with Red & Black, Alicorn, or Gary Stu OCs, don't give up keep doing what you do, and don't give for their opinion, what matters is your opinion you are the one who is important. I have seen that this group of nice people focus on this type of stories, so if they ever make a stupid comment saying "Where watching you." or "Choo Choo" don't give into their terrible trolling, your story is good by your eyes, not theirs. And if you do happen to run into this group of people with literally no life, just give them one of these

and carry on. Remember to stay Red, Black, and Proud.
