    Well, here's a screencap of the main page on the day after I first joined, just under 10 years ago! Also, a screenshot of my profile from a couple of years later. Not much has changed there, honestly: I do sometimes miss the old 'boxy' aesthetic of the previous forum software, for as many headaches as it gave us.

    Choices one makes reflect hope and fear Be brave, endure the pain Then one might just gain The strength one sought Which may be hearts and souls of life Meanings all of us search for

    Wouldn't have ever guessed it. I have great admiration for those who overcome personal adversity and rise to be exemplars of the human spirit. That now adds itself to the respect I already had for you, @Sparklefan1234. Continue being that light in the darkness. If it helps brighten even one person's day, you know that it was worth it.

    You look familiar. Welcome back!

    As the others have already mentioned, simply engage in topics you find interesting and make some posts in the relevant sections like General Discussion and you'll be ranking up in no time! Enjoy your stay with us.

    HOW DARE?! I am by no means your stereotypical Brit twit. You just wait until Lord Hereford hears this over tea and crumpets while we indulge in the latest escapades of Sherlock Holmes. HARRUMPH! Who's to say I already haven't?

    I like to see you But then again That doesn't mean you mean that much to me So if I call you Don't make a fuss Don't tell your friends about the two of us

    From my personal experience, Wikipedia is a useful platform to help you track down other sources which might be of interest, since almost every article will have several in the footnotes. But having access to something like JSTOR or online archival libraries is always your best bet for initial source hunting. This is especially because they tend to upload academic journals and other scholarly sources which may not be readily available anywhere outside of educational institutes. Personally though, if you have the opportunity to physically track down sources to a private archive (or even a public one if they have what you need) then that demonstrates much greater initiative for your work than simply quoting something from a webpage. You can sometimes get a hold of sources like audio recordings, vidoes or even physical possessions that are otherwise not recorded anywhere. The internet is a great tool and repository for knowledge, but little beats being able to look through an original written source. I spent some time at a old archival library during my studies last year, and that was honestly a very inspiring enviornment to be working in, as well as academically useful. Why wouldn't you want to check out old books?!

    Contemplative.

    The Importance of Being Interested by Robert Ince. I do enjoy books that can be humorous and yet still deliver something factually intriguing and perhaps make you wish to explore a particular subject further.

    If I don't have at least four or five notifications that Sparklefan has been posting more memes here, then something has gone very wrong.

    I always enjoy watching the Olympics. It's great to see the displays of athleticism from some of the best in the world across all nations. This tournament did not disappoint. The French put on a great show. This was Ireland's most successful Olympic Games to date. We took home 4 Golds and 3 Bronze. The rowing in particular was a great success for us this year. Also enjoyed seeing the running. There was some fierce competition in the field this time around. Noah Lyles' win in the 100m sprint was decided by mere inches!

    I definitely wasn't at the 2016 event, although I do remember seeing a video up of that panel on YouTube, I think? That might've been BABScon rather than Brony. In any case, 2019 was my only Stateside convention. I literally only started teaching undergrads earlier this year, so it hasn't quite "settled in" yet. There's just been a lot of workload rather abruptly to get things moving. At least I can't say it lacks excitement! I don't have a young 'un of my own, but frankly I think things are busy enough for the time being without that extra responsibility just yet. Perhaps down the line when things get boring again. I'm sure your little filly is a bundle of joy, Pinkie influences aside. I always intended to do more cons in the States before the pandemic put that on hold. Would love to do one of the remaining ponycons if a good opportunity arose, although the east coast is always easier to manage. There's just only so much time to try and fit things in.

    Hey, @Batbrony! It's always good to see old faces, but if there was ever someone deserving of recognition for all your work, it's most certainly you! Your presence is one of the earliest memories I have with the forums and my own staff tenure (how could one miss Poniverse's resident Derp Knight?), especially the weekly gatherings to watch the latest FiM adventure. I would always anticipate your in-depth analysis of each adventure, and I keep remembering going back to watch the episode again just to comb over it more thoroughly alongside your posts. Who needed YouTube reviewers?! But even beyond the forums, you've always been a wonderful guy to know and a great voice of clarity and honesty. I can't quite recall, but did I see you at the 2019 BronyCon? I know there was quite a large group of us from the Poniverse around for that one, but it may have been the previous year you were at. In any case, I can appreciate that being a teacher is occupying much of your life nowadays (solidarity, brother! ), but it's nice to see you still find time to do what you've always loved. May it travel with you ever onward! All the best, and God bless to you.

    Where have you been? Been searching all along Came facing twilight on and on Without a clue Without a sign Without grasping yet The real question to be asked: Where have I been?
  24. Dark Horse
    I jumped in the river and what did I see? Black-eyed angels swam with me A moon full of stars and astral cars All the things I used to see All my lovers were there with me All my past and futures And we all went to heaven in a little row boat There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt
