Gamer Luna, miserable angstpot Luna, awkward outcast Luna, angry bloody grimdark princess Luna, etc) that now, when the character appears on the screen, they see that conglomeration of traits more than they see the character on the screen. the writers figured that out and put together a characterization of her in "Luna Eclipsed" that would give every one of them something to cheer about. she's the bronies' creation and the bronies don't generally seem to realize that. which also means if they flesh her out in any definitive way, it will piss off some group of Luna partisans.
