You shouldnt feel ashamed!! I really love g5 too, and im gonna continue to buy it. We arent the only ones either. Lots of people like them! Just bc some may not like g5s doesnt mean its wrong. I feel this happens with every new gen. Theres some people who love them, some who are neutral, hate them, etc. Its been that way since G2 came out and continues to be that way. Its like that with any toy that has multiple gens.
Its the nature of human beings to have different opinions, nothing wrong with that. Everyones opions arent supposed be the same or else we wouldnt be unique beings!
I know theres dark sides to the fandom but here at the MLPTP I dont think anyone would judge anyone for what gens they like.
Try not to worry! Im glad the TP is a safe place. Dont let the bad side of the fandom gatekeep collecting or ruin your enjoyment of collecting. Gatekeepers arent worth the time or aggravation they cause.
