The Enduring Man-Child 22 March 25, 2012 Share March 25, 2012 Hello all. I've been trying to get on here since yesterday morning but have derped three times. Perhaps I should change my screen name. I just don't know what went wrong! Anyway, I'm "The Enduring Man-Child" and FIM is roughly the fifth Internet fandom I've been a part of (not counting the time I watched every episode of "X-Men: Evolution" on YouTube). I'm glad to be here at last. I'm older than most of you. I'm tempted to say that I'm the oldest brony, but since I'm only in my fifties and that I've been in two previous fandoms with people a couple years older than me, I'll resist that temptation. I'm afraid I can't draw, make or upload videos, read or write music, sing, or play an instrument. The only talent that I have is writing. I have 25 stories up at fanfiction.net of which I'm afraid only the last two are FIM. I've started a third story but can't seem to get going on it again. I write only under fits of inspiration. Either the story writes itself, or it doesn't get written. I must confess that my initial reason for joining this forum is very selfish on my part. As I just said, my talents are far and few, but I recently attempted to write some parody pony lyrics to a few pop songs and I actually have the temerity to think that one of them is actually good. I'm hoping some brony musician here might be willing to at least take a look at it. We'll deal with that on the proper thread though. In the meantime, hurray! I made it at last!! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoop 8,384 March 25, 2012 Share March 25, 2012 Welcome - it's always nice to get new faces around these parts that are at or above drinking age; as much as I do enjoy the company of many of the teenaged folks around these parts, I'm not really used to being on the older side of the scale within communities that I take part in. Hopefully you'll like what you see here and will decide to stick around as such! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klopp 2,050 March 25, 2012 Share March 25, 2012 Welcome to the forums! I'm glad to see a new Brony arrive, especially one of your age. I believe it's safe to say you're the oldest on the site, provided you aren't lying (Why would you though?) Always nice to have a new artist arrive, even if it's just fan-fictions, which I typically don't read to be honest I'm confident you will enjoy yourself here, provided you like ponies Welcome - it's always nice to get new faces around these parts that are at or above drinking age; as much as I do enjoy the company of many of the teenaged folks around these parts, I'm not really used to being on the older side of the scale within communities that I take part in. Yeah, seriously, these forums make even me feel old Still, at least I am drinking age now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Enduring Man-Child 22 March 25, 2012 Author Share March 25, 2012 Thanks for all the welcomes and brohoofs, fellow bronies. I've finally managed to add some stuff to my profile but am consternated to find that for some reason I can't add an avatar. Do I have to hang around for a while first?

Zoop 8,384 March 25, 2012 Share March 25, 2012 Somewhat - you've got to make five posts outside of the welcoming area, Cloudsdale Colosseum, and roleplay boards before the avatar/signature features are enabled. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strafe 594 March 25, 2012 Share March 25, 2012 Thanks for all the welcomes and brohoofs, fellow bronies. I've finally managed to add some stuff to my profile but am consternated to find that for some reason I can't add an avatar. Do I have to hang around for a while first? I think you need 5 posts outside of the welcoming plaza and cloudsdale colleseum. Anyway, welcome to the forum! "The Gods envy us. They envy us because we’re mortal, because any moment might be our last. Everything is more beautiful because we’re doomed. You will never be lovelier than you are now. We will never be here again."
