I love Jelly Otter 477 April 29, 2015 Share April 29, 2015 (edited) Why one would be happy/glad that they became a brony? I think it's like being a solid fan of anything else that you only keep it to yourself... Or?

Overlord0909 479 April 29, 2015 Share April 29, 2015 Because the show is awesome :3 I'm not sure exactly sure what to say, I like the show is really all I got. 1 Bored? Want to be more bored! Check out my channel (and sub ) to wait for the upcoming abridged series! "What series is that good sir?" - Interested Bystander (IB) Why, it is My Little Overlord! "That name sucks..." - IB<p> ;-; Just check it out: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIggp2B4qIFsPJrZ-mdKnCA Also, support MLP: The Game if you can! https://mlpforums.com/uploads/post_images/sig-4657732.MLP-The%20Game%20Icon.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inactive lol get mem 123 April 29, 2015 Share April 29, 2015 I guess the show is a distraction from my hectic life, I like to know that when I finish school on a Friday, I have a new episode to look forward to the next day. Also the people in the community are so nice. They seem like they are the only people on the internet (and in real life) who will discuss about different opinions rather than yell and swear at each other. Which is why I am glad I became a brony! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeric 46,856 April 29, 2015 Share April 29, 2015 Why one would be happy/glad that they became a brony? Two reasons for me, and one is likely something that is not typical. 1. My two teenage daughters were fans before me. Showing an interest in your kids taste in activities, hobbies, and media is important ... but sharing an interest ... it is a rewarding experience that elevates my individual enjoyment of the show to heights that is hard to explain. +1 parenting moment. 2. I have met many people who have become close friends (or at least I consider them friends). They are individuals that I would have otherwise not have met if I did not become a Brony. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sommar 1,289 April 29, 2015 Share April 29, 2015 I have two reasons why being a Brony is special to me. MLP:FiM is something I can look forward to in a negative-filled world. I deal with so much on a daily basis: school, work, social pressures, going to college the list goes on! This one cartoon is something I can escape to. The positivity the ponies have and the adventures they go on gives me happiness. And the community is astounding. Everyone on this forum is happy and are there for you when you need them. I am proud to say MLP Forums is like a second home to me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Piranha 29,430 April 29, 2015 Share April 29, 2015 Because, thanks to the mostly bright world and characters of MLP, gave me strenght to not let my depressive life take me down. Hay, I even started to work out thanks to ponies Sig by Discords Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CC_Maud_Pie 6,431 April 29, 2015 Share April 29, 2015 I'm in a unique community and also things would be different if I didn't give MLP:FiM a chance because before that, I couldn't think of a show with characters I can relate to. All my life needed was a sense of someplace to go. I don't believe that one should devote his life to morbid self-attention. I believe that someone should become a person like other people.

Katie Fire 158 April 29, 2015 Share April 29, 2015 MLP is what I go to at the end of everyday, whether it's art, the forums or the show. If I've had a bad day it brings my spirit right back up. Everyone I meet has a different story and something different to offer as a friend. I couldn't give a damn if some jerk at school or wherever finds out and bullies me, because at the end of the day there's more to My Little Pony than a girl's TV show. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PariahPuff 33 April 29, 2015 Share April 29, 2015 I guess I feel special in that I got over the stigma of being a brony to give the show a chance instead of caring what everyone else thought. And I feel proud that I watch such a well done show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banul 3,831 April 29, 2015 Share April 29, 2015 For me, it creates a sense of belonging. I like being part of a group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idris 241 April 30, 2015 Share April 30, 2015 For me it has to be the same reason as 4x4 clubs and robot wars back in the day. Everyone is friendly and they help each other out Visit the show, stay for the fans! The fan art though? The fanfics, the drawings, the readings etc. it's all just WOW.

The Crimson Cross 7,532 April 30, 2015 Share April 30, 2015 To be honest, I'd much rather a whole range of shows over MLP in a heartbeat. What gets me though, is the super-friendly communities! 2 Now with more added tea leaves! My fantastic signature made by Gone Airbourne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackWater627 700 April 30, 2015 Share April 30, 2015 I guess I feel special in that I got over the stigma of being a brony to give the show a chance instead of caring what everyone else thought. And I feel proud that I watch such a well done show. You've made a very good point. One of the things that's so important to me is that being a brony means being a part of an awesome community based around an awesome show. One does not justify the other. I don't lie about the show being good just so I can be in the community. The show is honestly really good. And vise versa. Also, the brony community is the most open group I have ever seen, heard of, or been in. Period. You can literally be YOU and people will love you for it. Now that is one big deep breath of fresh air. Kindness is just a few words away. Tell someone something nice and be the Element of Kindness today! ♥ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThatOneComrade 1,091 May 1, 2015 Share May 1, 2015 Being a fan of this show makes me feel special because I'm shamelessly enjoying something that's not intended for someone my age. Also I get to be part of this ridiculous fandom. href="/monthly_02_2014/post-8308-0-69609200-1393191794.png"> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Awesome One 1,315 May 1, 2015 Share May 1, 2015 I'm happy to be a part of this fandom and all but it's not really that 'special'. We are like any other fandom except we enjoy a show that is not meant for us but we watch it regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baltosaa 86 May 1, 2015 Share May 1, 2015 It's not really special for me, personally. MLP Is just another thing/franchise that I happen to like, along with several other things that I like which are completely unrelated to MLP.... This is a signature, and that was a post...

Humble Hymn 90 May 1, 2015 Share May 1, 2015 At first it was just that I could be a part of something that let's me know I'm not alone in this world and there are others like me in ways I never could have Imagined. Now it's also because being a brony inspired me to put myself out in the world and contribute to it when not to long ago I never believed I could. What a Desktop Pony of your OC?
