Also, /mlp/'s current activity is only a fraction of what it once was, and only a fraction of THAT is going to be interested in G5.
Part of the allure for G4 was that it was being helmed by a well-respected animation veteran, and was released in a time when its only competition would've been Adventure Time, so people didn't really have a lot of choices.
The landscape has changed a lot since then, and there's no room for these wastes of oxygen here.
