WhirlyPop 84 December 30, 2016 Share December 30, 2016 This is honestly a huge step for me, coming here- but I'm ready to join the community so let me tell you a bit about myself! I'm a 22 year old female who recently got a degree in graphic design with minors in illustration and fine art (I'm definitely eying up those creative boards already!), and I've secretly followed MLP:FiM since season one. I was in high school when it started up and although I loved it, I didn't have any outlet for it- the only examples I had of what "bronies" were was not good at all and I was scared to be associated with it. It's taken me years to finally come to this point of being able to accept and come to realize that the bad example I was shown was in fact the distasteful minority and that this is a group of wonderful people that I want SO BADLY to be a part of!! So I designed my ponysona and trotted on over~ I hope to make lots of friends that I can share this love with, I'm overjoyed to be here and can't wait to meet all of you! 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxy Socks 2,599 December 30, 2016 Share December 30, 2016 Welcome! It wasn't easy for me to become a brony either, and still isn't. I think you will have a lot in common with most of us. 1 My OC: https://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/foxy-socks-r9861 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widdershins 9,960 December 31, 2016 Share December 31, 2016 ...Creative boards? Huh... do let me know what & how that works out, since yours isn't too far a reason from why I joined as well. I wanted to work on my own creativity & see what the fandom was all about. Which... has been somewhat slow going on my part, as I'm not the quickest match in the toolshed from time to time! But aye, fandoms are just some collective name for people. One can't really put them all to the same descriptive terms as they tend to cover likely literally thousands of examples. Though think the "brony" fandom can catch alot of flak often. Specially since it seemed for a while to be some joke to say we're just the absolute worst. Like, oh, some CollegeHumor skit I caught wind of on the YouTubes. But humor can be unintentionally hurtful sometimes. As I say, its best not to base your views entirely on what you've heard others do or say. Can't ever fully know how dense the wall is until you headbutt it, eh what? Course, I'm saying this as exactly that sort of shut-in & nerd, heh. Though you won't catch me ruining my collectable figurines by coating them in cheeto dust! For one, I don't even like Cheetos! I'm more of a powdered donut man, myself!! So welcome to your first day on the forums! Hope you have fun here! P.S. Don't you dare look up that CollegeHumor brony vid! Don't! When those people miss the mark, they miss it by alot! So hurtful it was scary, and I scare more easily then I get offended! Beatings & Salivations Everybeing! Creativity is something blatantly important to me as is no doubt evidenced by the 28 OCs I have posted here of the some forty plus I have, they're linked altogether at the bottom of my About Me page in my Profile & I would deeply cherish anything you wish to say about them! Among which of those I am proudest most of is my Draconequusona, His/My Ask Thread and my Hydra, Gallimaufry or "Mauf" and their own Ask Thread! Either way, sufficed to say, I am quite confident I have more OCs than you! Crazier to! Do You have a tatzelpony?! No, I rather think you don't! Hew-Hew-hew!
