blog-0507522001407967644.pngHey yall, thanks for stopping by.

This is my first blog on this site, and thus should be about my first experience with this site.

 

Being a brony since 2011, I knew that the community was quite large, however, I never really became part of it. That is, until BronyCon 2014 rolled by. Now, I was forced to become part of the community. This was my first con, and my first time ever getting involved with other Bronies.

 

First off, I really didn't know what to expect going in. I signed up to the forums and posted on the welcome forum. The welcoming part I got was AMAZING. Really, guys, thanks. The utter kindness and acceptance going on here is truly inspiring.

 

After asking a few questions on the forums, posting in a few fan clubs, and even a few stints in the life advice section, I headed off to BronyCon.

 

When I got there, I was blown away. The people were kind, caring, and most of all accepting. Epic cosplays, amazing artwork, and phenomenal panels made the experience quite unique.

 

There is where I bought my first posters, my first plushie (only the best handmade Babs :D), and where I really felt like I could be myself.

 

This is an open thank you to everyone who made my BronyCon experience as amazing as it was (and a shout-out to the EverFree staff for standing at the back of the line with me even though yall had backstage passes).

 

This is also an open thank you to everyone who made my forums experience what it was, and what it will continue to be. Thanks guys, you're the greatest!

Man, you sound so much like myself. My induction into this fandom was on May 20th of 2011, after powering through the first and only season in one night. Exposure to the fandom was pretty small for me until I joined this forum, which happened one week after I attended BronyCon in 2012. That convention really changed my life. Made me feel better about myself as a person, taught me how to open up and be a more sociable person, and now I have to go every year. My whole year revolves around it.

 

Thank you, because you sound like a wonderful person, the type that drew me into this to begin with. To be honest, I've been fighting an ever-increasing feeling that I no longer have a place among them. I'm going to give things another shot to see if things can turn around.
