Disinterest in going to any brony convention?

Mixed feelings about it - I'd like to see a pony convention, but I don't like being around people. Thus, I'd be interested in attending one if I could go as a ghost, but as things stand, it doesn't seem likely.

these are my feelings, too. I started saving to go to Bronycon 2019, but large crowds aren't really my thing. And I wouldn't be going with anyone i know.

I  didn't feel compelled to go to a con until I found out that a local con had a party floor, including a Klingon party. I don't buy much FiM merch, I mostly just watch the show and collect g1 toys.

Unfortunately I'll probably never get to go to Bronycon, with it closing next year, and me simply not having the time, or resources to go. I may be able to visit at least one con at some point, but I could only see it happening years down the line.

I went to the one in Baltimore a couple times with some then active forum members. I mainly wanted to see what it was like as I also regularly attended Transformers conventions in the past. But after doing it a couple times I’ve had little desire to return. I suppose I should go in 2019 as that will be the final one but I currently feel indifferent about it.

I can't say I have much interest in going to those sorts of conventions either. I've thought about it a few times, but I enjoy my relaxation time too much to pursue it. The biggest selling point of conventions appear to be the social aspect, which isn't exactly something I necessarily view in positive light (especially huge crowds.) I'd rather just watch the presentations I'm interested in from youtube in the comfort of my own home.

I'm not a convention sort of person either. I'm not very social, and there's not much there that would interest me besides seeing VAs and maybe some of the art.

Besides, I have the internet, I can get all my information from there.

I've never been to a brony convention. I joined the fandom a little late for that.  

Even then, I don't like crowds. 

[Cynthia Mintwing 2,216]

I’ve never been to a brony convention nor have have I attended a brony meetup. The reason is because of time concerns or anxiety. Also, I don’t have a job to even buy any access for any of the conventions.

I wouldn't mind going a few times but I wouldn't be comfortable going on my own as I'm a pretty socially awkward person and the costs for me to be able to go would be too high for me to go anytime soon

I would love to go to a convention!

I've been to MLP conventions before.

I want to attend TrotCon this year, but I don't know if I'll be able.

Definitely going to HarmonyCon again in February though.

I wish there was more conventions in europe i would 100% go if i had enough money 

[Tom Gallagher 33,581]

I'm envious of people who have gone to them.

[Cash In 22,223]

I would've liked to go to one at the very least, but it's not something that bothers me too much.

[Reality Check 631]

I would be interested in going one, but can't, mostly cause my location is nowhere near where any of the conventions typically take place

[Pentium100 2,120]

I almost went to one, I think it was supposed to be in the Czech Republic. In the summer of 2020... So yeah, it did not happen. It is not THAT appealing to me - I am not a big fan of crowds for example.

[Steve Piranha 29,419]

I could go, but seems like a hassle with the big crowds. Besides, I would be mostly interested for the exclusive merch, which:

1-since G5 is taking over, it’s unlikely to get G4 merch so easily 

2-Managed to get some con exclusive merch this year  

[Astralshy 26,428]

I'm really interest to go to one and see how other fans are in real life and maybe connect with other people about this adorable show.

[Pearly Marshmallow 399]

I'm highly interested.

Sadly, no conventions seem to take place in my country and my short budget has always prevented me from visiting another country to attend one. But there's no doubt that I really want to go to one.
