The Newbie Thread II: Introduce Yourself!

Post by drunkill (?) » Sat Oct 28, 2017 11:51 pm

Welcome to The Round Stable forums.

New and returning members can post here and tell us how they started watching the show, how they discovered our little corner of the internet and most importantly who their favourite pony is.

And a reminder to please read the forum rules here.

Well, I've been a member since 2011 before the original forum had a meltdown. I'm the guy who draws comics a lot :v:

I started watching Ponies because a webcomic I was reading at the time did a parody of it, with the creator saying that he actually enjoys the show. This made me seek it out. My first episode was "Call of the Cutie"...not a great start. I later just started from the beginning, and the rest is history.

Hello again, it's PonyHag, resident Harshwhinny groupie and poster of corny jokes. I have been a Pony fan since watching and being blown away by A Canterlot Wedding. Very nice to see the forums back. :allears:

Sup, nerds. I joined in November 2011 after seeing the banner ads purchased at Something Awful and thinking, "Huh, that pony is cute." Then I caught up on season 1 just in time for season 2 to begin. The ponies got me in, and the community has kept me going. And also the ponies, because the ponies are good.

Good to be back. :-)

Hey guess who's back and hasn't watched any of S7? That's right, it's that guy with a demonstrably worse name than before. (formerly Maximum Horseplay, figured I'd start using the same handle that I use everywhere else.)

Maybe I'll start watching cartoon horses again too.

Heya. I've been a member since the first season and was drawn into the show by its sincerity and characters. This forum has been great for me and I'm glad to see it back! :party:

Let's see, I lurked the SA thread, then I joined the old forums when they went up. Then I wrote a few fanfics. Then I wrote a dumb IRC bot and they gave me mod for it.

And now I have a forum server dropped in my lap. :-I

hi. i've always liked the shy horse Image

these days you probably won't find me in this subforum much at all, because i don't really watch or follow the show very closely. (the last episode i saw was Dungeons and Discords)

Hi! I started watching the show in 2011 when season 2 started, but it took me until 2013 to register here and start posting.

It's good to be back. :vogue: And yes, Rarity is my favourite.

Alright, I'd been watching since mid-season 1(and I hadn't watched since mid-season 5), got sick of EqD's BS and came here in 2012 after season 2. I met a bunch of cool people and this pretty much became my home.

The forums are dead, long live the forums.

I lurked the origional SA thread, and then showed up here when it first got made. Hi, I'm Aria Genisi, I'm a dingus, I used to stream B-Movies a lot but nowadays I've got other stuff I'm focusing on instead, so instead I make a lot of really bad posts instead and I haven't watched the show in years. I just like hanging out with some of the people here instead.

I was one of the original members of the forums back when they went up, after the exodus from Something Awful. I originally got into the series due to Redeye Flight's threads over at SA. I stopped watching the actual show sometime around Season... 4, I think? But I still like hanging out here and goofing off with everyone in PPPP and such.

Glad to be back, and glad to see everyone else coming back. Can't keep a good horsie forum down, and this is the best horsie forum out there.

I started watching MLP after seeing a giant influx of pony avatars on SA. I binge-watched every episode that was available at the time in 2 days, then watched my first new episode live on The Hub (Green Isn't Your Color) and have been hooked ever since. :allears:

I lurked a bunch when the forums were first made after the TVIV thread got gassed, but didn't actually officially join until the day Season 2 started. I'm a huge organizer of TRS meetups in the Chicago area now, so if you're ever in the area, send me a PM!

I've been around since between seasons 1-2. I don't really post much anymore, but I still lurk around and it was a real bummer to see the site down on Saturday. I'm glad to see it back up so quickly!

:v: Lurker returning after the unfortunate recent forums = dead incident so I guess we're all newbies again? Been around since late 2012 but was mostly only around the old hayrides&horseshoes game forums before it got renamed to that "ogres and whatever" that I can't remember due to lack of sleep.

Hail and well met my friends. I was first a fan of the toys for replacing the rather unattractive designs they had been working with for about a year at that point. I then started watching the show around the time episode 5 had aired and I have loved it ever since.

I joined the forums when they launched, had some good times, and then disappeared like some sort of flaky ghost for many years.

Now I am back!

Yoho, I'm Perrydotto, and I like the horses. I first got on board towards the end of season 1 after several online friends assured me it was a good show, then joined the forums and fandom proper when season 2 started. Then I became a fan convention staffer in Europe, went to European TRS meetups and got both a mod position and a husband on this forum. And somehow, throughout all these years, the show is still good. Wild!

I still really like this silly community, and I'm glad we're still here and kicking. Lets keep doing that, yes? :allears:

Hi, it's LingEarth. :idea: I never posted much on the old forums, but I love the show. Got into it between seasons 4 and 5 because of a friend in another corner of the internet.

When I joined the old forum I said my favorite ponies were Pinkie and Rainbow Dash, but I think Twilight might have edged them out since then. :twiright:

Welcome back, my friends
to the show that never ends.
We're so glad you could attend,
post inside, post inside...

Hi I am the oldest person who ever watched pony or ever posted on the internet ever.

I came back because this is the best community for so many reasons, I love you all.

My favourite pony is every single pony, except that one.

Hello! I got into ponies between Seasons 2 and 3, and realized I was a fan when I was talking about the animation of the show compared to other cartoons to somebody who has no interest in animation and was just politely listening. I've kept going, sometimes more interested in ponies than other times, but always enjoying the people I've met due to the fandom.

Glad to meet you!
