Well, I was introduced when a friend of mine told me about a really great show, and she wanted me to watch it with her, so I did. I thought the characters were really realistic, and the score was well-produced. I've loved the show ever since!  0:)

Silly Ellowee. What're you doing here? You can't be a brony. You're a pony! You already live in Equestria!

Maybe she watched the show and became a fan.

Ellowee is just our mascot, not an actual user. The team member who posted probably forgot they were on the Ellowee account. :P

My friend showed me the episode where Rarity gets captured by the diamond dogs and a while later I watched all of season 1 and fell in love.

The Gedge

Friend told me to watch it. I told him "hell no" but he kept insisting. I watched the first episode and didn't know what to think; however, my friend kept telling me to watch it and I gradually started liking it.

I've already posted mine but I made a song. Here goes:
When I was little colt and it was season threeeee
I followed an author whom's fanfics made me sqweeeee
I looked into his favorites, i'll tell you what I saw,
a MLP Parody fic that had me in awe.
so I said "Hey me, what's this show I see is it even real?
maybe it's plot was just made up, so that's the deal"
not-at-all
so I D'awwed at the Dashie,
Lol'd at the Pinkie,
Sympathized with the Twily
Liked the character depth of Rarity
andeveryhaterimetfromnowonwasmyenemyandjustthethoughtofjoiningthemmademejustwantto BWAHAHAHA
LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH

Lightning Twist

I was really bored, and decided to watch because why not? In the first episode I was like "Ha, it's funny" and in the second "Oh my God, this http://forum.legendsofequestria.com/index.php?topic=2470.0">Read the forum rules. is great".

Aw, i got recruted  X3

A friend of mine made me watch a few episodes with him, and well i did think of it as one of the better shows but nothing that special.

After 2 years he finaly figured out how to win me over, with fanart  lol
He showed me a few stuff (drawing, stories, games and so on)  after wich i really wanted to know more, and here i am  ovO

I saw ponies everywhere on the internet.  I wanted to know what all the hubbub was about.  I saw a few clips from some episodes (including the Fluttershy yay scene) and I thought they were amusing, so I watched the first episode.

I remember sitting through the theme song, thinking to myself, "I can't believe I'm sitting here watching colorful ponies prance about, but whatever; I'll give it a chance." :/

Oh my Luna I love this show! :3

I was hooked from the first episode.

Before I knew it, I had watched every episode, researched the history of the show and fandom, familiarized myself with pony memes, made an account on this website, etc.  I pretty much indulged myself into the culture of My Little Pony.  I couldn't be happier :D

I had known that MLP had become a thing again on dA and various other internet places.  I was in college at the time and my roommate and myself were (and still are to an extent) internet trolls so we just left it alone.  Then one day my roommate comes into the dorm after hanging out with some of his friends and tells me that he's watched some of the episodes...and had instantly become addicted.  I kinda blew him off and ignored his constant badgering for me to watch the show, and this kept up for three weeks.  Eventually he mentioned that the very first episode was free on iTunes and after class I gave in and thought to myself 'alright I might as well see what exactly all the hype is about...and I might as well get the best quality possible.  The most I could lose is half an hour of my time.'

So I downloaded the first episode off iTunes, watched it and thought 'okay so the animation is decent, the voice acting is excellent, the characters are believable and dynamic.' And then the end of the episode came and with it the 'To be continued'.  My only reaction was 'well great now I have to watch the second episode'.  So I did.  The end of that episode came and then I thought to myself 'well what happens now?'  Next thing I knew I had watched six more episodes and was hooked.  lol

Believe it or not, I actually wasnt a Brony for some time. I was even a forum mod for the longest time, and even with all the pony memes and alike, I never even tried to watch the show. I was more content to waste time on other ventures, besides there is a part of me which hates commercialism, so I naturally avoided MLP because of Hasbro. But, one day, whilest trying to girlify my niece a bit (since her "father" was trying to make her into a violent tom-boy) I decided on some of the most girly shows. So it started by showing her Strawberry Shortcake on the Hub, which was crap to me and her both. Then came on this colorful show I had heard so much about. Well, the rest is easy to guess.
She actually payed attention to it, and so did I. I watched a girly show that actually had a plot! I was amazed. And then I saw the names of those who made it. I saw so many familiar names, names that made my childhood. I knew I had to see more of this. And once I got to Party of One and a few other favorites of mine (Lesson Zero is one, but I saw it after I joined) I knew I had found something I was into. And once I dove into the fandom, I found a nice warm home.
A show this good, and a fandom this pleasent (gore fic writters aside). It has become one of my most favorite fandoms, next to some other shows and stories. And as of late, its been an obsession in a way, considering I dont have much on my plate that isnt pony related. But once I get my fix of produced projects, I'll be back to my other things. But thing will always remain, I am proud to be a Brony. And I'll carry that friendship with me always.

So i was watching ben10 (ikr) and i saw the werewolf episode, then i started liking wolves. I started playing wolfquest, and i heard someone talking about transformice on the forums. I went to transformice and made a account and started playing, then i heard people talking abut ponies on there, searched up my little pony, and yeah. Btw this went on for over a year, i was 7 when i watched ben10, 10 when i found out about my little pony.

My first experience in the MLP:FiM world comes from the 'Meet The Bronies' video on youtube.  After that, I was kind of dragged into it kicking and screaming.  Okay, more like tied to a chair and gagged.  But, after the first few episodes of season 1, I saw something special.  Unlike all of the other programming for children, this one was well animated and actually had a healthy message for the kids.

So, with that, I became a Moderate (by Meet the Bronies standards).  However, recently, I have marathoned all three seasons and the movie (that sound you heard was my former muse hanging itself) in preparation for an upcoming journal project.  Check my signature around the 1st of the year to see what I mean.

This is awesome, nothing like telling your first experience of becoming a Brony.  For me, well it was awkward you might say.  When I became a brony it was near the beginning of last summer.  It all started with SCP-173 too!  One day when I was watching Ratchetness (Woo!) playing SCP with the pony mod.  I always wondered why Pinkie was considered crazy, looked at the wikipedia on her, found the episode watched it.  Next day looked up why Twilight was also considered insane, found Lesson Zero and loved it.  After that I kept watching the show and got more and more into it.  So this is my story on how I became a brony.  And I'm glad it happened.
I used to hate MLP, now I don't.  Who cares what others think, they are just weak minded.  Bronies have conventions, what do haters have?
