Happy Birthday, Horsie Forums!

I've been here for, let's see... about one and a half years, apparently? (Plus a few months of lurking before registering.) I may not post particularly regularly, but I've hung around enough to know that this truly is a fantastic community that I really appreciate. I quite like it here.

So, here's to another excellent year, and many more!

(Well, didn't quite make this before midnight PST, but I'm sure it's still the 13th somewhere... like Alaska, for instance!)

Pinkie Emote Party!

Don't forget these:

Let's party all night long!

Three years and I still can't remember how I got here in the first place.

To another year and long poniless summer ponygoons!

Avoid this fate, lurkers! Register now and post your version of this story in the newbie introduction thread.

I was one of IRQ's pinkietar converts, actually.

This place is still the least terrible pony site on the internet.

Permanent forums header, plz. That there is my kind of slogan.

I'm late, but not too late!

Happy birthday, forums.

Happy Birthday to all you wonderful people

Les do dis!

- In this past year what are your favorite memories involving Ponygoons and its community?

All the Eurohorseez Our (Artrix, Angel Beat's, Metal's and me) trip to Germany, Galacon and surviving the French roads Was the 30 Day Challenge in the last 12 months? I think it was... right?
Ponies: the Anthology 3!

- What changes have you observed over the year? What were you expectations one year ago and how have things differed?

Oh, I think that with everything that's been going on with my life I forgot to have any expectations I've allowed myself to be more out of the loop for the moment to focus on other things.

I do have this feeling that overall that this *points to everything on the internet related to pony* has become less of a thing and more "normal". But from time to time the realization will bubble up that OH MY GOD YOU GUYS THIS IS MY LITTLE PONY AND IT'S FANTASTIC AND WE SHOULD CELEBRATE!!! and then big smile

- What do you think the future holds?

Season 5

- Has it really been a full year...? What have you been doing with your life?

Oh... err...

- I graduated
- Started my own studio with friends
- Started working on my first gig with said studio
- Still working on my animated music video
- A ton of other projects.

Pssssst, Isaak ...

[quote="The post_id=55600 time=1392349200 user_id=81] Having no connection to SA I consider myself quite lucky for finding this place less than 3 months after it opened, and really within only about a month of me discovering the show. Other than the small group over on NeoGAF this has been my pony home since the start.

Wish I had been a few weeks earlier to get a sub 1000 id.

I apparently have always had a sub 1000 id. I don't know why I was thinking it was 1200-something[/quote]
Apparently 1300+ people registered between the beginning of May 2011 (your signup date) and halfway through July 2011 (my signup date). There have since been less than 500 more new users in the past two and a half years.

A lot of those users were spambots.

Spambots just want a place to discuss ponies too

Do the Google Bots and such count as users?

Robot love pony

Yes, I certainly do. I'm sure robotzor loves them as well.
