To be fair Starlight didn't try to keep in contact with him either and ended up nearly ending all of pony kind over an ex-friend. Anyone else find that...a bit extreme? She didn't even care; heck, up till Twilight tried reasoning with her, she chose to DENY that what she was doing was wrong. Sunburst didn't force her to become anything. That's like saying that it's wrong to let go of any friendships of any kind, even if there are times where you can't even help it. I'm not saying Sunburst wasn't right for not trying to get back into contact with her, and I'm certainly not trying to tell you that you should like him (if you think he's the scum of the earth, be my guest), but to blame him for everything that Starlight has done is completely unreasonable.



I do agree with you totally on the motives though; and Starlight was a magnificent villain. Her episodes, to me, have been mostly enjoyable, but only because of the characters she interacts with, not because of herself as a character. I feel like they're trying to make her too important, but seriously don't know what to do with her. If I see her become an alicorn though...oh boy...I will not be happy (but kudos to anyone else who would enjoy it).
