Welcome to the forums. Don't forget, we've got a news website and an imageboard as well, links to both are at the top left of the forums.

I'll huggle him and snuggle him and huggle him some more when I find him. And I had noticed the links to both of these things, but thank you all the same.

Hello! Glad to meet you all!Umm... What should I say?

I started MLP a few months ago, and then started watching episodes as they came out. Uh... I'm interested in video games, scifi/fantasy books and TV series, science/math and tabletop role playing games. I've not done much of anything with the Brony community, but I hope to start!

Welcome to ponygoons! Here's hoping you'll be joining us for a while yet! :pinkietoot:

Don't worry, the process of turning into an otherwise sane MLP fan who automatically perks up at the barest mention of :ponydrugs: is relatively painless.

Hey guys,
Boring story here, kept seeing random stuff about ponies on the internet, became interested some time during the summer, sat down and watched the first episode, closed youtube after the first line (Once upon a time in the magical land of Equestria...). Came back a week later, watched the first few episodes, the next day I had watched the entirety of Season one. Just kinda told my friends, "Hey this isn't so bad, you should watch it!".

This is not boring at all, any body's story of their journey of becoming a brony is plenty fascinating enough :awesomedash:

Very VERY bored and spamming the random subreddits button over on Reddit.


I saw a My Little Pony subreddit, standard "wtf'ing" ensued. Did a little reading, then I watched the first couple episodes and by 4 I was hooked.


I've always had something to do since. :awesomedash:

Long time lurker here, was introduced to show last February from the something awful thread and well :ponydrugs: , then I found this site a few months later but never felt like I had anything to post at first. Then it got to the point where I hadn't registered for so long that I thought it would be awkward to explain why I had lurked for so long without posting.
Then today I just decided to go for it because :ponydrugs:.

Hey everyone! I've been lurking for a while, and finally decided to make an account, so I may as well introduce myself.

So yeah, what should I say, err; my story is pretty boring, I started watching this show last year, I started seeing pony avatars on a bunch of forums I frequent.
I brushed it off for a while... and one boring evening I caved and decided to see what all of the fuss was about, so I fired up the first episode, brushed it off as a decent enough show, and that was that.

Well, about a week later I finally decided to give it another go, something about it just clicked, and in the span of a few nights, I had watched nearly every episode. Everything after that is history. :pinkieshrug:

Rarity is also my favorite :vogue:

Greetings, lads and lasses!

I am ARGH Reporting of the wondrous and always relevant My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic newsletter, The Daily Oat! You all seem like a nice bunch, so extending myself outside of Ponychan and Ponibooru to make my acquaintance with you, Ponygoons. It's been a LONG time since I've been a part of a forum, but I think I still have this thing down.

Feel free to reach me if you'd like to discuss anything, whether my site, http://thedailyoat.com/ , or just the occasional jib. I'll check in here as much as possible (the forum, I mean) to get my feet wet in your community, so I hope to meet a few friendly faces from the lot of you. I'm not too shy, but I'll speak softly in my mannerisms.

Anyways, nice to be a part of your whimsical little forum, and I hope we can all get along, whether it be user or community. We're a rose by a different name, I believe, except mine smells like Nutella :v:

See you soon!
