Woops, I forgot to make this thread when I initially signed up a few hours ago. Oh well, better late than never, right?
I am Tholos, an intellectual of sorts. I have been a member of the fandom for only a short while, only since around the middle of Season 2 or so.
I try to be the most helpful and kindest I can be to all of those around me, as objectivity is a concept I hold dear and I believe that objectively there is no reason not to treat other people well.
This is far from the first forum I've been on, and I'm quite familiar with IP Board and how it works, so it's not likely I'll need help navigating the forums or using their features, but I am however interested in meeting people and making new friends. Please send me a message (I'm likely to respond almost immediately) or add me on Skype (I'm online, but not too often) so we can talk (If you're interested in doing so, of course).
My favorite pony is, by far, Twilight Sparkle, as I can relate to her quite a bit. Do not let my outwardly formal appearance fool you, I tend to be silly from time to time, and enjoy a good laugh.
In my spare time, I either read, play video games, watch ponies, or go on long walks. I find all four of those activities very relaxing and together they keep me calm and happy enough.
