Becoming a brony is a long and hard process to which only a select few can achieve. First, you must sign up at your local brony club. (usually found in the back streets of the darkest alley you can possibly come across in the area you are near) Then you must put your life on the line and "sacrifice your soul to Celestia, the all supreme being." Then, after doing a couple of cult rituals and human sacrifices, you must religiously watch the show, noticing every movement and twitch of the ponies in it, mane 6 and background. You also have to learn how to overreact to haters, and threaten them with death over some form of private messaging. Don't forget to sign up for brony corps, the secret society of military bronies that want to rule the world with Celestia and Luna as their leader.

Naw, we just watch the show.

Before I started to watch the show, I was really intrigued from the fandom base. Songs, animations, and other great amazing things, along with the fantastic community made me enjoy the show more that I ever would when I started to.
I would say this fan community is the best online thing ever

I was on Netflix one day and MLP FIM was on the front page. I watched the season 1 two-parted premiere and fell in love. ![]()

My friend asked me to watch it, so I did when he stayed over one night. Then a few days later, I bought minecraft. Then a few days later, I got on youtube and found the server. Then a few days later, I connected to the server. Then a few days later, I got to know some pretty cool people! Then a few days later, I took my submission test. Then a few days later, I watched more of the show. Then a few days later, I failed my test. Then a few days later, I met other people, really loved the community, and I watched more of the show. And a few days later, season 2 ended. And a few days later, I went to my first brony convention. Then a few days later, season 3 was playing and we would watch a stream together as buddies.
So, it was a combination between the community and time.

And even if I'm a swordsman it somehow found a way into my heart.
All that friendship and no violence...
Well for me MLP is a way how to relax and pleased my soul. Cause the life is not so friendly.
As I said. I started to watch the show and suddenly I was in the middle of things.

One day a few months ago, I was bored. I then decided to play Minecraft and watch YouTube. After watching a Keralis let's build, I spotted an interesting thumbnail, so I clicked on it. It turned out to be a Minecraft song playlist thing, so I went back to building. I completely tuned out the video... until I heard a demonic song intro. I was like "Dafuq?" so I went back to the video. Before my eyes was a dark music video. My reaction was "Okayyyyyyy... wait? What!? There are people that make colorful horses kill other colorful horses for rainbows? ... Eh, ok. I've seen weirder shit." At the end of the video, I had completely forgot about the colorful horses. --- That was the month an apple fell...
A couple weeks later, I was at a friend's house, and he man-challenged me into watching all of season 1 of MLP. So I did, and right when I saw the yellow pegasus with a pink mane in the first episode, I said "That's that horse from the video!" Needless to say, I liked the episode, but I wasn't completely hooked yet. When I got home, I went back to the video that started this all, and figured out that the demonic song was called Rainbow Factory, and that it had a fan fiction written about it. I read it, and I was like "Whoa. This came from a little girl's show? This thing is dark! I need to watch more of the show and find out how this came to be." --- That was the week that a seed was planted...
A few days later, my little sister was watching MLP and wanted me to watch TV with her. I thought to myself "This is my chance to watch a little girls show and it not be suspicious." Once the first episode ended, I was hooked; but just slightly. I went to my room and got on to YouTube and searched for more MLP fan songs and animations. Later, I stumbled upon a YouTuber called FimFlamFliosophy, and immediately fell in love with the Mentally Advanced Series. After prodding around Pedirep's Deviant Art (looking for more ponies), I branched off in to unknown territory. --- That was the day the seed grew into a sprig...
A couple more days had passed, and I was once again on Deviant Art looking at ponies... until I saw a picture of a pony fully clad in metal armor. It interested me, so I clicked it, and in the description it said it was based off of a fan fiction called Fallout: Equestria. I then searched for the fan fiction, needing to know where this interesting pony came from. I found it, clicked the link, clicked the first chapter, and started reading. --- That was the hour the sprig grew into a sapling...
An hour had passed. I was hooked. Ponies had finally gotten to me. I was obsessed with Fallout: Equestria, and with that, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic! --- That was the minute the sapling grew into a tree...
But that was still not enough. I still didn't consider myself a brony, despite all of the evidence proving I am. I'm a guy that likes MLP; that's enough to make one a brony. And my denial continued for the next 6 months, until I sat down to respond to a 'question' on a 'forum'. That's when it clicked; I'M A BRONY! --- That was the second that the tree grew its first apple...

Me and my sister finished watching a movie on Netflix and saw MLP on there. We decided to watch the first episode as a "poison joke" and it wasn't all that bad. After watching the first 10 episodes, I got hooked. But I didn't know bronies existed back then.
I went to school after the break, it was spring break at the time, and a friend of mine caught my eye. He was wearing some MLP dog tags, and then I walked over to talk to him. After a long discussion, I found out about the fandom and all it's branches. Soon after, I found Equestria Daily, which pretty much kickstarted the whole "I'm a brony" type deal. Then I browsed through some of the videos, and created a name to use, which turned out to be the name of a character in a book series. Now I'm hooked on that, but I needed to change my username. So I just added on "ThePegasus" ad I was set. Then I was browsing more videos until I came across Cupcakes, and you can guess how that ended up for me. Still scared out of my wits, I finally considered myself a brony. That was until I came across Rainbow Factory. I was so angry that I distrusted those guys for two months. Then after a while I felt strangely attracted to that stuff and read the fanfic. After that, I created a rough sketch of my OC, and I am now the person I am all because of what I just explained here. *sigh* I'm tired.

One of my friends got hooked on it. He asked us all to watch the show. I said why not, turned out liking it. Jumped aboard the Luna/ Lunar Republic bandwagon, built the Lunar Republic base on Kynareth, watched all of season one, and the rest is history.

I saw MLP animations and references start to pop up more and more online over time. I didn't think too much about it, but it started getting to a point where I was like. "-The fuck?" Then after bouncing around on the internet, looking for what could be the source (because I had no idea that it was a show yet) I found APPLE.MOV. Then I got really curious. So I started watching.
The more I watched, the more I seemed to like it. But there was a huge part of me that suddenly resisted the fact that I liked the show. I kept telling myself: "It's as a cartoon for little friggin girls!" "This is freaky!" "Why the fawk am I watching this?". However, I didn't stop because of a few key episodes that kept me watching and making me laugh. I think Pinkie Pie, and the general shenanigans are what kept me drawn to it. Which is why I like her a lot now. (plus RD, Derpy, Vinyl, and Twilight)
I finally changed my mind when I saw a guy on youtube that liked Dragon Ball z, and did all the same kind of manly things like I did, plus work out, tell his story about how he came to like the show. That guy, and a 3-D model of the mane 6 that I imported into an awesome little program called Maya pushed me right over. To this day, I like MLP for the art, and creativeness that the fans have shown. And because it's fun to watch.
But the last nail in the coffin didn't come until last season's epic fuckin Dragon Ball Z Battle. Any doubt that I had just flew right out the window after seeing that.

I had no friends nearby and i came across the rainbow factory saying to myself um... what? the next day i saw more mlp things that i really hadn't noticed and got into it. the funny thing is when i got into a skype call with my cousin we both said the same thing. "is it crazy that i'm a brony" then we both looked at each other, laughed, and said "nope, it's not"

I was originally a cyborg, created by the hater resistance who will be sick of the pastel pony plague, and sent back in time to stop the menace before it begins. But the magic of friendship over powered my programming and opened my heart so I decided to join the herd rather than try to stand against it.

I stopped watching the show a while back, considering picking it back up, but regardless I like the loving community and the general fun of everything. MLP in general just cheers me up.
