Hopplar 16 January 19, 2014 Share January 19, 2014 My Favourite Mane 6 Pony: ApplejackHow did you find MLP Forums?: I'd heard about it from some friends online, and I also think that they got a mention on Equestria Daily that I read. How you became a fan of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic: Read below! Hello everypony! I'm new to this forum, but not the fandom, as I hung out a lot in MLP Steam groups, Equestria Daily, etc. This is the story all about how my life got flipped, turned upside down. I'd like to take a minute just sit right there, I'll tell you how I became the Fresh Prince of Bel-Mare. I had heard a lot about this fandom in the past. I, of course, thought that it was an extremely stupid fandom. I thought that it should have been frowned upon and that Bronies were just neckbeards. That changed because of my curiousity. I was on Netflix about a month ago, and I saw MLP in the list of random things to watch. I thought "Haha. I should watch an episode just to see how bad it is." I thought that it would be horrible. At the end of episode one, I thought that it was pretty bad. I ignored it for about a week when, again, my curiousity got the best of me. I just kept thinking about Nightmare Moon. About the ponies. About everything. And it eventually dragged me back into the show. I got home and sat down to watch the second episode. I actually found myself worrying at the end of it. "Oh, god. I'm becoming a Brony." Is all that was playing through my head. I was genuinely worrying about what I was to become. I felt bad about myself for actually enjoying it. I eventually moved on and began to just like what I liked. I kept it a secret for a few days, as I was really hesitant about what my friends and family would think. I eventually toughened up one night, and I texted my mom. She was a little anxious at first, but didn't seem to mind. I felt really proud of myself. Seeing how well it's went with my mom, I began to tell the rest of my family. Then my friends. I'm pretty much open about it. I don't go willy-nilly, telling people left and right, but if it happens to come up in conversation or they ask me, I tell them with pride, "Yes. I'm a brony." I hope that everypony can forgive me for how I acted towards bronies before I became one Anyways, I'll be seeing many of you around as I take this next "step" in my life! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alluress Glow 6 January 19, 2014 Share January 19, 2014 Wow. I thought that the "Prince of Bel-Mare" intro was going to be the highlight of your post, but you showed me.

Gone Airbourne 21,977 January 19, 2014 Share January 19, 2014 This is one of the best introductions I have read in a while now!! You know this sounds just like me when I first heard about the show and how I became a fan myself. Literally how you thought the show was really weird sounding at first and your first thoughts about bronies it what I thought too. Then when I actually sat and watched an episode for the lulz and because I was really bored. BAM hit me like a wall wondering just how in the world did I actually like that?!?! But welcome to the forums here and I hope you have a blast in your time here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
