** When readers pointed out that Celestia could have just used magic to stop the thieves in Raven's backstory, Mykan edited in a bit that stated that they were outfitted with anti-magic and de-spelling charms that rendered even the princess's magic useless against them. The problem is, if a mere gang of thieves could get ahold of anti-magic and de-spelling charms that could work on even alicorn magic, then villains with bigger ambitions, such as conquerors and genociders, would have them too, yet no villain in the series does. Furthermore, if the aforementioned charms were so common, ways would have been discovered that could deal with them; otherwise, all magic-users would have been easily toppled.

* HumiliationConga: In Seasons II and III, Ace Ray (who's depicted as a {{Jerkass}}) experiences this. He loses his friends, gets kicked out of the Wonderbolts, and does so poorly during [[ItMakesSenseInContext a fight with a changeling]] that he "would have [gotten] seriously hurt" if Rainbow Dash hadn't interfered. In a later chapter, a couple robots hold Ace and his sister Skye hostage, with one of them knocking him out. He also tries to persuade other characters that Starfleet sucks, but most of them don't even listen to him. The narration even suggests Starfleet's defenders regularly called him a "failure" and he was even suggested to get help. Also, he and a mob he gathered try to protest at a cafe. However, not only does everyone originally ignore them, Skye (who he hates) eventually starts trying to get him to quit his protest. When [[WouldHitAGirl Ace]] starts [[KickTheDog assaulting her]], Lightning Dawn (who he ''loathes'') stops him from doing so. He additionally [[CurbStompBattle Curb-Stomps]] Ace, which involves him [[NoSell No-Selling]] his attacks and ultimately arresting him. In court, Ace gets insulted by Captain Spitfire and he tries to blame Starfleet for everything, which everyone ignores. He also tries to assault the judge, to which Twilight prevents via surrounding him with a shield.

There, he keeps trying to tell the staff he isn't unstable, and the medical staff respond by restraining and sedating him. In a rewritten version of "Episode 5: Truth Hurts", it's even worse. Not only do all the aforementioned events occur, other characters start cheering Skye when she starts telling off Ace for his trash-talking of Starfleet.[[note]]In this version, Ace and the other protesters agree to leave after Twilight orders them to.[[/note]] Skye also reveals in court he was once enslaved by Nightmare Moon and, after Ace has another outburst, the judge calls him out on his behavior.
