general Do You Remember Your First Day On The Forums?

[Splashee 28,560]

It was a summer day, and I was happy. I had managed to say hi to total strangers!

I remember I was awkward as hell... And I still am to this day.

Well I first joined a few weeks ago. That being said I don’t remember anything about that day lol. Can’t remember what I was doing before I joined.

This still remains true. I don’t even remember what day I joined. I know it’s on my profile but I don’t even remember what it is off the top of my head lol.

I have such a great memory

No, but I remember how 20-30 notifications felt like a lot and I mainly participated in RPs, general discussions, and Last Poster Wins

Can’t remember much.  I remember I found the forum last April when I was looking up stuff about the ponies ages I believe.  
 

Then I figured out status updates and reading others statuses and writing em have been my favorite part of the forums since.   Having been a fan of the show since 2011 I don’t know how I went so long without finding this place.

I remember being absolutely terrified and very badly flubbing the layout of the intro post.  It’s nice to think about how far we’ve all come though together!

A little background.  I was formally introduced to MLP:FIM by a certain someone in my life in November of 2011.  It was the Mysterious Mare Do Well. I was also made to watch episodes 1 and 2 online.  I thought the show was cute and entertaining but it didn’t immediately captivate me.  But I tried intermittently watching some more episodes in 2012 and eventually I was hooked.    

I soon became a bigger fan of MLP than certain someone and I realized I needed another place to talk about the show.  This was especially true with Season 3 kicking off.  So I looked at websites pertaining to MLP and this one looked promising. I don’t have any clear memories of my first day beyond signing up, making a post in Welcoming Plaza, and just exploring the various sections.  I didn’t know I was about to embark on an amazing journey and that I would be touched on a deep, personal level by several members.  Most of them are no longer active but I hope they think about me from time to time.

I was bright-eyed, bushy-tailed, nervous, and impulsive, and I was excited to finally be communicating with people in my fandom. 

[ExplosionMare 18,060]

I remember all I did was play forum games and answer random questions. Things are really different compared to then cause now I have some forums friends 

[Clawdeen 12,189]

Yeah I still....remember nothing.

[Flying Pencil 3,024]

Yeah, I remember my first day. 

[Astralshy 26,360]

Yeah, I do remember it was the 17.1.2021 and I was not sure what I would find here and had no idea how much I would enjoy this place within the first month

[TBD 17,253]

I only came here at first to talk about Equestria Girls that's how I came upon this forum. I remember surfing around the forum just to see how it is, and decide to stick around since why not? And here I am now 

[Twilight Sparkle97 402]

I joined the forums two days after my 20th birthday on June 16 last summer, but I didn't post my first posts until late July 2020. 

[Megas 27,551]

No because I lurked for a while before actually biting, making an account and getting involved

My first day I was having a conversation with a user named... Radiance I think was it, about Rarity not being so obviously generous  .

Don't worry I think she's a great poner  ! Tbh some elements aren't so obvious either, like loyalty :thinking: ...

[dead account 2,710]

It was so special! Everyone was suuuper nice and helpful! Half of the people who welcomed me are still here and active! My english improved as well, it's funny and embarassing looking at the older stuff of mine, haha.

[Clawdeen 12,189]

Yeah as I previously posted no I don’t remember. 

[Shiny Silvermoon 3,614]

I remember it like it was yesterday! During my first day, or rather night, I was known by the name of Shiny Star! Later I would change my name for Shiny Silvermoon! The first pony I met was @Planeswalker Silky who welcomed me warmly and threw me into her spa as soon as I said that I was trying to make myself an OC! It was one of the best days of my life... 

[SUPERFOX5 387]

I actually STILL remember coming here right after watching the Season 2 finale with Queen Chrysalis.

I was so desperate to find other fans of the show, and lo and behold, I found a forum for MLP FiM, this place. 

[EpicEnergy 23,139]

Yeah I was weird! Well now that I think of it I still am lol.
