    Brony hunting Advice??

    Hey, Everypony. A lot of bronys seem to feel quite alone in their area, so I thought this thread might help... I was wondering if you had any advice for finding Bronys, so everyone could hopefully find at least a couple near them.

    I found a Brony by pure luck, when i leapt out of the stables, to find that one of my friends had been a closeted brony for even longer. Another friend has recently started watching episodes, and now also admits being a brony. How did you find bronys?


    (sorry about the name changes... I'll stop now.)

    Hunting bronies? I tend to leave a plushie out in a cleared area (a Fluttershy one tends to work best) alongside your standard bear trap. If that doesn't work, they can usually be found around the pink aisle in popular toy stores. Just stalk them for about 10-15 minutes (they tend to take a while to get there), then use a .22 to go in for the kill. Be careful though, bronies are very wary of their surroundings, and will react to any movement while in the girl aisle, either to avoid predators or embarrassment.

    As for finding bronies to be friends with, I'd recommend online means. I have one brony friend in real life, and I don't feel I need any more. That's just me, though I'd be up for a brony meetup.

    Well done. You may also bait them into a false sense of security by offering up a "bro hoof" before sticking the snub-nose under their rib cage.

    Hunting the beautiful but elusive beast known as the Brony is a daunting task, but it can be done!

    First, one must carefully lace one's weapon of choice, usually speech, with references to the show. This has a somewhat envigorating effect on the creature, and will cause it to stand out from it's normally camouflaged state.

    Next, one must be sure to leave a weakness in one's camouflage as well, since the brony must be enticed enough to strike at you. When it sees no weakness, it will run away, wary of it's other predator, the Troll.

    Of course, when you initiate combat, there are few tips that can be offered since very few survive this ordeal, but generally, some sort of inquisitive approach is best.

    Well, the tip is you ask them what a brony is
    i'm not a closeted brony anymore, cause every one of my classmates want me to draw pegasi/alicorns/unicorns/ponies for them

    I, for one, use a bait and switch combination of the muffin and the cupcake, respectively...
    As I approach my quarry (the Brony, of course) I hold out a delicious, soft, fragrant muffin...
    And as they approach, I pull out a cupcake!
    The natural instinct of the Brony, when presented a cupcake, is shock and sometimes fainting and muscle spasms...

    Awesome! :omg::omg::omg:
    If you ever want to post some of your drawings here, I'd be intrested in taking a look. ^_^

    I found a brony in my city on Flankbook and I thought we were the only two, he was too busy though to ever meet me. But then when I went into the city with an old friend 2 bronies commented on my Fluttershy shirt in public. Then I finally came across a brony group for my city that had 105 members. We are having a meetup tomorrow. Don't give up dude there are probably more bronies in your city then you think. I was certainly surprised.
