You Gotta Share, You Gotta Care?

As someone who has a fanseries planned, I actually think part of the fault lies on the hands of bronies.

Not the bronies who upload the fan animations, but their fans - when the Button Mash animations got a copyright strike, their creator attempted to have a mature conversation with Hasbro in hopes of reaching a compromise, and I have no idea if he reached one or not (but seemed to be doing well for a while) and straight away the other bronies start bitching about how Hasbro hate them, and acting like they're some evil corporation, which makes them look very immature and unwilling to make a deal.  If we all acted mature about it, and calmly explained to Hasbro, we'd actually get somewhere.

Hasbro even tried to make some compromise saying they would monetize fan videos, which was a freaking godsend to me - there was finally a scenario where Hasbro were going to allow us to do fan animations, and all that would happen is that they'd get money from it, which was fine - but bronies acted like Hasbro were taking money off them, which I don't think they were.

If my fanseries makes it, I am actually very willing to let Hasbro place ads on my videos, and gain money from said ads (it won't even be my money, it will be the money that the adverts make) if it means that I can upload my fanseries, but I fear this will be hard to do if Hasbro thinks that bronies aren't mature enough to make deals like this.

What Hasbro are doing is wrong, in that our projects are non-profit, but they were probably misinformed about what was going on, and we as bronies failed to explain, or allow those involved to explain.  We need to meet them halfway, basically.
