How Do We Feel About The "Brony" Episodes?

One of the things I find most fascinating about My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic is the relationship the show has with its fans. MLP:FIM has, several times, commented on its fans and their fandom--and I'm curious to see what effect, if any, it has had on the community.



Below are a list of several episodes that comments on fans and/or fandom, with specific moments highlighted (if needed). Please answer as many questions as you can. I'll post the results on Reddit next week!
