We all know each others story when it comes to how we became bronies, but I was just wondering how we all got to this website in particular, so here's a list of things I'd like you all to answer :] 1. Tell us how you found the site, the story can be long or short. 2. Tell us why you joined the site. 3. Tell us how you felt when you first arrived. (nervous, scared, excited, etc.) 4. Tell us who your first three friends were on here. 5. (Optional) Post your very first avatar. 6. (Optional) Post a screenshot of the first post. (or earliest one you can find.) Alrighty, I'll go first. :] Browsing brony forums on Google XD I eventually stuck to this one due to it's members. :] Well, I was in a bit of a pickle at the time. I remember that I was feeling a bit crappy due to the fact that I had actually trolled bronies and in a strange irony became one myself. Ashamed, I disconnected from almost all of my trolling buddies in order to figure out how to make up for the trouble I've cause, I eventually decided that maybe I should actually get into contact with a large group of bronies and try my best to be friendly and helpful to the community's members. With this in mind I started searching for forums on Google, I eventually ended up here and read some posts by some of the members at the time... I eventually thought that if any brony community would forgive me for past actions, it'd be this one. Needless to say, I was correct. :] Very nervous, I had no idea what to really expect from a brony community due to me being a filly at the time. XD DRD, Muesli, & ePONYmous. Spoiler: My Very First Avatar Nice hair, lol. Spoiler: My Very First Post Your turn!

1. Tell us how you found the site, the story can be long or short. By accident. 2. Tell us why you joined the site. I started out on EPR, in the chat. It was awesome.

1. Tell us how you found the site, the story can be long or short. I googled the word "everypony" and this was the first result. 2. Tell us why you joined the site. I joined so I could communicate with other bronies about the show. 3. Tell us how you felt when you first arrived. (nervous, scared, excited, etc.) Nervous and excited, I guess. I was nervous because it had been a while since I've joined a forum community and I wasn't sure how well I'd fit in. I was also excited at the opportunity to talk with some fellow bronies. 4. Tell us who your first three friends were on here. I think they were Double Rainbow "Dash", R41NB0WD4SH and Meletric. 5. (Optional) Post your very first avatar. Spoiler: First Avatar 6.

1. Tell us how you found the site, the story can be long or short. When i became a Brony, this was the very first site i found...before i became a Brony i stumbled across Equestria daily but since my joining the herd this was the first pony site i found. 2. Tell us why you joined the site. It was a forum, it had ponies, I like both of these things and once i saw it had a RP'ing section i signed right up. 3. Tell us how you felt when you first arrived. (nervous, scared, excited, etc.) Nervous and excited. I've always been one who wants a bit of fame. Just a hundred people or so that enjoyed what i made, I kinda expected that to happen here but didn't get my hopes up and rightly so...it's always very hard starting to become noticed on the internet. But i was also very worried about the response i would get to my going on Furaffinity. I was never a furry, but that was the first site I found when i went looking for a place to post up my poetry (other than deviantart, I hadn't exactly gotten a good reception there) where I got people who liked it. Most people always respond incredibly negatively when i tell them that's where i put up my poem's and such and i was very worried that i would have the same thing happen here. Turns out at least those worries were groundless. 4. Tell us who your first three friends were on here. (too lazy to link them) Rashall Nbunomand Thanapony 5. (Optional) Post your very first avatar. It dissapeared mysteriously when i moved files between my old laptop and my new one 6. (Optional) Post a screenshot of the first post. (or earliest one you can find.) Haven't figured out how to take a screen shot with this computer yet (and it isn't any of the F# keys, I've tried them all) so I'll put a link instead http://www.everypony.com/forums/showthread.php?1739-The-Lunar-Republic-Part-1-Beginnings Not sure if fanfics count, but this was the very first thing i posted up on everypony.
1. Tell us how you found the site, the story can be long or short. Browsing MLP forums. I found several but this one attached my attention from the very beginning despite the fact that is in English language. 2. Tell us why you joined the site. I joined because I wanted to share my feelings with other bronies about the MLP show and because of the cutie mark below each member. Cutie mark depicts personality and identity (I didn't find this feature in any other forum). 3. Tell us how you felt when you first arrived. (nervous, scared, excited, etc.) Nervous and excited at the same time because of the language. I think when you're writing in another language.... can't tell clearly all what you're feeling. You know what I mean. You don't know how well you're going to fin it either. 4. Tell us who your first three friends were on here BrycedVelvet, Crestfallen Meerkat and DRD 5. (Optional) Post your very first avatar. The one I've got currently 6. (Optional) Post a screenshot of the first post. (or earliest one you can find.)

Tell us why you joined the site. To make new brony friends. 3. Tell us how you felt when you first arrived.

1. Tell us how you found the site, the story can be long or short. Basically I searched around looking for a brony community with a lot of members. I lurked around many forums I found, and this one was the most appealing. 2. Tell us why you joined the site. I found Everypony to be most appealing because of its built in radio, and the website itself has a nice design. 3. Tell us how you felt when you first arrived. (nervous, scared, excited, etc.) I suppose I was nervous at first. I spent time reading threads on the forums getting an idea on what the community was like. I decided to join about 3 days after discovering the site. 4. Tell us who your first three friends were on here. DRD, Danvid and Rashall 5. (Optional) Post your very first avatar. 6. (Optional) Post a screenshot of the first post. (or earliest one you can find.)
1. Tell us how you found the site, the story can be long or short. I founded it with Grey Nightmare and The World is Flat. Pretty much all there is to say. 2. Tell us why you joined the site. ...Because i was one of the founders? 3. Tell us how you felt when you first arrived. (nervous, scared, excited, etc.) I was a bit nervous if the community's gonna be a bit weird or if the site would not reach on popularity soon enough. Thank God, it did develop in a good way. 4. Tell us who your first three friends were on here. Grey Nightmare, The World is Flat, Derpy Hooves 5. (Optional) Post your very first avatar. I can't remember what my first avatar was. I guess Blank? 6. (Optional) Post a screenshot of the first post. (or earliest one you can find.) ...Can't find.
1. Tell us how you found the site, the story can be long or short. Hmm. It's a bit a vague but I think I've got it down. A while ago I was addicted to minecraft. We've all been there, so don't judge me. Anywho, it was during this that I also discovered Bronies from the F@nb0y$ web-comic. Thinking it was worth a try I plunged into it and pretty much just kept trying episode until I was bronified. Now back to the original story, now that I was addicted to minecraft, and ponies, a wonderful idea found it's way into my head: What if I could find a good pony minecraft server? It didn't take me long at all to find a good one, I pretty much just went to the minecraft forums and found the pony thread. As it turns out, they have a really good minecraft server there and I spent a month or 2 on it before it started to get a bit... stale. Luckily, one day one of the regulars posted a link to the radio, back when Everypony was still new, and the rest is history. 2. Tell us why you joined the site. I just did. To listen to pony music while playing minecraft. 3. Tell us how you felt when you first arrived. (nervous, scared, excited, etc.) "I am so good at finding diamonds... wow this is a really good song!" 4. Tell us who your first three friends were on here. My first three friends were R, Foxy, and Flash. I met them when everyone started to RP for the first time. Good times, good times.
1. Tell us how you found the site, the story can be long or short. Was just randomly searching for pony stuff and happened to come across this site. 2. Tell us why you joined the site. The members seemed nice so I decided to join. I must admit that the brony community had sparked my intrest and I was facinated with the overall brony culture. I was also curious to find out more about my fellow fans and needed somewhere to talk ponies. 3. Tell us how you felt when you first arrived. (nervous, scared, excited, etc.) Curious, but also insecure about my own broyism, even if I did not want to admit that at the time. Like always I was nervous about meeting new people. But I always felt bronies were awesome people, mainly for being unaffected by social norms. 4. Tell us who your first three friends were on here. DRD (Who else? ) Rashall and BronyBuddha.
