Hello from Germany

How did you find MLP Forums?

Via Google - I was searching for an international MLP forum after I really enjoyed a German one and decided to also register on an international one.

How you became a fan of My Little Pony

I was converted by my brother, who himself got converted by his online friends. That was around January 2018.

We were still in the middle of Christmas holidays, so I was a little bit bored. When my brother then asked me to watch the first "Equestria Girls" movie with him, I agreed, despite being somewhat irritated by his love of MLP before. Well, it came as it had to - I found it to be enjoyable, and after the EG movie was over, I stayed and watched some normal episodes of FiM with him. And I guess that's the moment I couldn't go back anymore - my fate was sealed .

Guten Tag! (Hello!)

I'm a relatively new Brony from Germany, and I found this forum just yesterday (but since I was in a hurry then, I waited with introducing myself until now).

I still go to school (will graduate in 1.5y) and will most likely study law after that. Besides law, I'm also really into history - and speaking of that, books in general. I always had a kind of… uncommon humor and a heart for things like plushies, so it didn't surprise me much when I got into MLP and its fandom.

The Brony fandom is my first "real" fandom, and as such, I'm still learning the dynamics and structures of the fandom, forums and the likes, so pardon me if I do anything stupid 

Also, I'm really bad at introducing myself (shyness strikes again!), so I don't know what else to write here. But I hope this does it for now!

But stupidity is the foundation of everything.

Why do you intend on doing such a cruel thing to yourself (and others)?

Actually, that aside, we have quite some things in common; IT/coding skills, history interests and the country. I actually read a good book about the Iran recently and...Warrior Cats aside, an East Germany propaganda book about the Sowjet Union history.

You might not even live far away from me...esp. if you are the north of Hesse, as I live in the south of lower Saxony, Göttingen. Are you nearby Kassel by any chance? We have a local WhatsApp group around this area.

Why I intend to do that? To cut it short, I believe it'd be a good balance of routine (criminal laws don't change that often) and new stuff (new cases and people every day) that would prevent me from getting too bored of a job I'd have to do for a long time of my life.

Oh, you also read Warrior Cats? I must confess I haven't in a while, but that was the first book series I really grew attached to 

Concerning my residence, that would be more in the middle of Hesse than in the north, around Gießen to be exact. So no, to say I live nearby Kassel would be an exaggeration…

Only started with WC myself, season 4. Honestly, just like Kenny in early seasons of southpark, there is a character dieing in each book for the quota. Like in the ~3rd of season 4, where a cat suddenly dies...WITHIN THE LAST 30 PAGES; NO LESS!

Yeah, that kinda began to suck, to me especially in the later seasons… But my knowledge only covers stuff until the middle of season 5, so I don't know anything about whether that bettered.

That's (Gö) 2 hours away by bus or car.

My bro studies in Marburg though, and he is kinda a brony too, just not involved in the fandom at all - I believe.

Sounds about right, I actually had to endure a 2 hour drive just recently when I went to Ludwigsburg for the series finale meetup. Definitely worth it.

Ah, yes, Marburg I do recognize (had to look on a map for Göttingen first - my geographical knowledge isn't the best ) - but I guess that's not an impressive thing considering it's, like, around the corner. Didn't Marburg have regular meetups at one point? There was a thread for that on the forum I came from, but that seemed to have ceased, or else I might've joined…

Your English is pretty well for a German, especially on your age. I live with an US american female who is doing her Phd here by putting Alzheimer into mice brains, the usual stuff. She doesn't speak a word of German at all, despite living her for 2 or 3 years.

Aw, thank you! But that's just because here I have time to check and rewrite stuff - whenever I'm talking freely or writing class tests, my output can be pretty… not elegant, to say the least.

The usual stuff indeed. Hopefully the mice don't forget how to speak mouse, or they'd join your American friend in not speaking the language around them all day!

I sure hope so! I currently just don't have the time to get on here more regularly (*peeks at schoolwork*) but I'll definitely look around on the weekend!

Bronies.de? 

Yeah… I didn't know whether writing a link - because the name itself would be a link - would count as advertising for another pony forum, in which case that might be against the advertising guidelines, so I avoided mentioning the name… (Yes, I'm a bit paranoid about breaking rules and stuff…)
