MarkKB 32 August 27, 2012 Share August 27, 2012 My Favourite Mane 6 Pony: FluttershyHow did you find MLP Forums?: Using my awesome powers of Google-fu. How you became a fan of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic: Like quite a few people, my first contact with MLP was an article called The End of the Creator-Driven Era on Cartoon Brew. i shook my head slowly the whole way through - if anything, I'd felt animation was making a resurgence - and I did see Lauren Faust's name in there, but for whatever reason I didn't think much of it. It wasn't until I reached the comments and saw that quite a few people were replying in defense of the show that I decided that it might be worth the look - I'm up for trying anything once, afer all. And, well, it kinda stuck to me. My first episode was the pilot, but then I left it alone for a bit for some reason I can't remember, and then I came across a video of a brony recording his non-brony friends' reactions to the episode "Lesson Zero", so I watched that so I could get a grounding in it before watching the reactions. (It was a good choice, IMO - certainly better than the pilot, at any rate.) And then I watched the rest. I'm a computer/technology geek and an ameteur programmer. I also love to write fanfics and draw art (although if I'm good or not is another story. ^^; ) I used to roleplay, years ago (like, back in 2004!) but school got in the way and all the good roleplaying sites for my show of choice (Lilo & Stitch) dried up. Ooo, letsee... I like Lilo & Stitch, animation in general, Star Trek, Portal, Age of Empires, Need for Speed and To Aru Kagaku no Railgun. And a lot of other things. Actually, there's not much I don't like - apparently I'm meant to hate Quest for Camelot and Atlantis: The Lost Empire, but I think both are awesoemsause. Oh, and I'm from New Zealand. No kangaroos here, just kiwis and hobbits. 1 Stuff I work on: Artwork | Fanfics | The Askblog List Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starshine 16,334 August 27, 2012 Share August 27, 2012 (edited) Wow, it's nice to see someone who got snatched to FiM by that old article Can I buy some hobbits? :o Anyway!

MarkKB 32 August 27, 2012 Author Share August 27, 2012 Welcome! I'm also new, so I hope we can learn this new site and explore through the vast forums together! I hope so, although I'm not exactly known for being particularily active. I'll try, though! Wow, it's nice to see someone who got snatched to FiM by that old article I should specify that it wasn't very old when I read it (someone had retweeted it [think it might have been Diane Duane] and that's how it popped across my radar.) I only just decided to join a forum now, 'tis all. I should also elaborate that I've across these forums before - sometimes I'll Google-search a brony-related item to see various reactions to it (what can I say, I'm a very curious person. ^^; ) And one day, my mind was like, "hey you know that forum that keeps popping up in the results? Why not join?" And here I am. Can I buy some hobbits? :o>.> <.< Twenty dollars a piece. Anyone asks, you didn't get'em from me. Hey, it's an NZ-lander. Do you ride around on Dingoes? I kid, I kid. Anyway, welcome to the forums!! Thanks! And I only specify because I know some people get the two confused, and I'm still a bit miffed about that one Rocket Power movie that showed kangaroos or kookaburras or something in New Zealand. :shakesfist: 1 Stuff I work on: Artwork | Fanfics | The Askblog List Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoop 8,384 August 27, 2012 Share August 27, 2012 I should also elaborate that I've across these forums before - sometimes I'll Google-search a brony-related item to see various reactions to it (what can I say, I'm a very curious person. ^^; ) And one day, my mind was like, "hey you know that forum that keeps popping up in the results? Why not join?" I've honestly been extremely surprised, from time to time, at just how often I find links to this forum while googling around quite randomly. At any rate, I'm glad to see that you finally felt inspired to sign up; I like to think that we've got a fairly good group here, and hope that you'll quickly come to agree. If you've got any questions or concerns about anything at all, do feel free to contact us about them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkKB 32 August 27, 2012 Author Share August 27, 2012 I've honestly been extremely surprised, from time to time, at just how often I find links to this forum while googling around quite randomly. ...New mission - Google random things and see if this forum comes up. Hope to see you around, and hope you stay active long enough to see the epicness this board possess. Stay brony, friend. Cheers! I'd like to specify that when I say 'not known for being active' it means I usually just pop in from time to time. But again, I'll try to be more active!
