Hai thar. I've been watching the show for a while, but this is honestly my first time really delving into the community. My path to becoming a brony was a bit unusual. My first and only expirences for a while were through cs188's ytps. For the longest time I thought that the show was centered around fluttershy (something I wouldn't mind too much if it was.) not long after, I decided to watch the show, soldiered through the first 2 episodes, and was hooked by the 5th. And that's how equestria was made.
