CosmicHooves 2,705 May 26, 2014 Share May 26, 2014 (edited) It seems like in this fandom you're either into Bronyism (worshiping MLP as a religion), clopping, or you're a furry. Well I'm not trying to be insulting or anything because the last thing I would ever want to do is insult another pony. Now I'm not the average Brony, but I'm just wondering. Are there any other Bronies out there that just watch the show and are involved in it like any other regular Brony would be? What I'm basically saying is that are there any Bronies out there that just have the label "Brony" upon them. Nothing else.

Espurr 449 May 26, 2014 Share May 26, 2014 I don't think there is such thing as normal. I can't even consider myself normal. But if you really believe normal things are real, then yes I'm just not that. I don't care what pony you like because I like everypony! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paladin Butters 163 May 26, 2014 Share May 26, 2014 If you define normal as just being a Brony, then I am that. I honestly don't get when people try to get so much into the show when they say "The show's in the wrong" for doing something.. It's their show it's their story. HOW are they wrong.. Plus to clopping?... um I can almost say that's guy's who have no one I could say they're desperate... Can't hate them for their own opinions. However I only believe in one god. HE ISN'T a pony..

Flutter_Guy_Dash 35 May 26, 2014 Share May 26, 2014 I watch the show on a daily basis, and I only got involved in this fandom a couple of months ago. Back then I knew what bronies were, but just thought they had watched the show period. I had know idea about these sites all dedicated to the show. Once I stumbled across them (That's a story for another time.) I found EQD, which led me to Derpibooru and DeviantArt. Anyone who goes to Derpibooru knows that you can change the filter settings to "Everything" which shows every picture un-filtered. I had no idea people made pictures of ponies "doing things" but all the sexiness got a hold of me.... you can guess what happened next. I wouldnt call myself a "clopper", because i've only done it to ponies twice, and I dont plan on doing it again. (maybe :3) I my opinion I would call myself a Regular Brony.

Khaoios 1,970 May 26, 2014 Share May 26, 2014 (edited) Yes, I don't do anything special. I just watch the show and change everything on my PC to MLP styled. I pretty much do the same thing, including writing fan fics and requesting commissions, You could say im one of those individuals who would "not" collect toys, and display them, but only go for posters and shirts (damn it, i want my wonderbolts hoodie so badly, but so hard to find ) Edited May 26, 2014 by Thunder-Wing 1 XBL: Riot Rojas 3DS Friend Code: 5300 - 9568 - 7902 WEB/CHANNEL: THREADS: Youtube - ThunderColt Studios MLP:FIM - Wrath of the Ancients Fan Fictions Weebly - ThunderColt Studios MLP:FIM: The Day Equestria Stood Still - Volunteers Wanted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pastel 7,630 May 26, 2014 Share May 26, 2014 Eh, I think most bronies are "normal" bronies. Personally I enjoy watching the show just like any other show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andaasonsan 3,205 May 26, 2014 Share May 26, 2014 Clop has just never done anything for me. There are a couple of suggestive pony pictures that I've found mildly erotic, but beyond that cartoon ponies with peens and vagoos drawn on them just look to silly to me. I'm also not a furry. I do really geek out on this show though. What would be an acceptable level of geeking out and still be "normal"? Application REJECTED! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lighting flash 207 May 26, 2014 Share May 26, 2014 No, we're all f****** and we all should be burned with fire. No, 90% of bronies I've meet are what you call "normal".

The Crimson Cross 7,532 May 26, 2014 Share May 26, 2014 As far as I can tell, watching MLP is the most abnormal thing I do! I'm not that obsessed, but I do like to listen to some good old Brony music from time to time. I'm not really into the darker side of the fandom, I just treat it like it doesn't exist to be honest. I have a figure or two, but everyone's cool with it. It's not like I go shoving MLP down people's throats or anything! Now with more added tea leaves!

Colorful Respawn 399 May 26, 2014 Share May 26, 2014 Hey I'm a normal brony! If by normal do you mean just watching the show, supporting the franchise by buying toys, and looking at fan made stuff? Then yeah I'm a normal brony! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paladin Butters 163 May 26, 2014 Share May 26, 2014 What's wrong with furries? They have nothing to do with mlp. Furry's dress up in animal costumes and have sex with each other, Furry's like MLP basically what probably led to "Clopping".

Frosty Nerd 833 May 26, 2014 Share May 26, 2014 Let's see: 1) Religion - I have a religion, and it is not ponies. 2) Clopping - NO! I keep my religious standards. Plus I'm a heterosexual female; there wouldn't be much for me anyway. 3) Furry - I'm a fan of ponies, but that doesn't make me a furry, does it? I watch the show and make my PC MLP themed. I don't really do much else. I guess I'm a normal brony. Last year my parents sent me a Princess Celestia birthday card for my birthday, and it made me so happy! I still have it on display in my room. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arylett Charnoa 4,919 May 26, 2014 Share May 26, 2014 I don't use the label of "brony," but I do consider myself to be... how you put it? Well, rather than using the term normal, I'd prefer to say "casual." I am a casual fan of MLP, which is what I think what you're getting at. Just watch the show out of boredom and for entertainment, but don't really see it any deeper than that. Sure, I make loads of fan art for it, but that's due to loving the art style and because others want me to and well, I can't turn down a profit, can I? Even if I'm a furry myself, I'm not really hardcore about that either or MLP. Sure, on more than one occasion, I do enjoy some unsavory activity, but I also am much more conservative about it rather than shoving it into peoples' faces and making art of it. For me, that would be going too far. So I consider myself to be casual in spite of these things. Furry's dress up in animal costumes and have sex with each other, Furry's like MLP basically what probably led to "Clopping". I would consider this to be incorrect. Many people who label themselves as furries simply enjoy anthropomorphic animals, rather than just dressing up in costumes and having sex with each other. This seems to be more so based on the mainstream view of furries, which just views them as a bunch of sex-crazed animal maniacs. But just as there are many types of MLP fans out there, there's many different types of furries. After all, many outside of the MLP community just think that all bronies are composed of cloppers. But that isn't true, is it? Aether Velvet is the name of the OC in my avatar. Drawn by me. Deviantart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nulln 755 May 26, 2014 Share May 26, 2014 To answer the OP, I would say i'm normal, except you have a thing against furries. I just watch the show, I don't worship it or think about ponies 24/7. I like the fan videos and art, the fanbase is very creative. People who call themselves a Furry* and do that stuff give them that reputation, can't give me criticism on your ideas if you won't take mine m8. I have no idea what your sentence means.

Nulln 755 May 26, 2014 Share May 26, 2014 That's not being a Stereotype. If you don't understand it, read your last post.. I have no idea what you're trying to say. Yes, it is a stereotype.

CosmicHooves 2,705 May 26, 2014 Author Share May 26, 2014 (edited) I did not mean to insult furries. I'm just saying that's what people think of us as. And actually some of us are furries. I've seen a number of them on this forum. I do not have anything against furries though. Let's see: 1) Religion - I have a religion, and it is not ponies. 2) Clopping - NO!

GONEFOREVER 518 May 26, 2014 Share May 26, 2014 When it comes to the total brony population, only about 5% are the mega-fan, obsessive, mega-clopping, fans. In my experience, most of the bronies that I know are completely normal. GONE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
