About Me
Hi, I'm Road Runt. Call me Runt for short. I know runt is not a nice name but the name was based off a cartoon character I drew in 2010. I called him runt for short. Everyone always calls me Road. I always have to remind them not to. You know what, If you don't want to call me Runt, call me R. Is that better? This "About Me" page has been split into many parts. If you want information about my character, read the green and the red titles. If you want updates about myself or a story about how I became a Brony, go to the blue title at the bottom.

Backstory of Road Runt the character
Road Runt is his nickname. He moved to Ponyville but he never told anypony where he came from. Runt likes talking to other ponies about new things. He's friends with Rainbow Dash. In his spare time, he draws art or a comic strip for a magazine. But ponies still wonder where he originally came from. Runt only told them he once lived on the east coast.
True story about my life as a Brony
My name on the internet is Road Runt. The reason why I choose the name was because it was based off a cartoon character I made. Since I no longer drew him, I used his name. What you are about to read is how I became a hater into a lover. While typing this page, I was surprised I can remember so much detail. Here's my story. I used to be an Anti-Brony for nearly a year. I became one after a player with a Pinkie Pie skin randomly killed me only because I stopped to say hi. The stranger killed me with a diamond sword while using flying cheats. I had only stone tools and no armor. I tried to come back to get my items but when the player saw me, he or she killed me again in midair. I stopped playing after that and reminded myself its only a game. To feel better, I went to Google images for funny pictures. But I realized whatever I typed, there is at least three pony images. My mind thought these strange people are taking over the web. when I looked up Bronies, I learned that there was a virtual cold war happening on the internet. For nearly a year, I was an Anti-Brony. I used to draw pictures making fun of the fandom. In my old drawings, bronies are portrayed as horses wearing glasses. The Anti-Bronies were drawn as wolves that wanted to chase the Bronies out of their land. I nearly joined the Anti-Brony brotherhood which was a real website. But what I didn't know was the truth.
In December 2013, I planned to make an animated video about the Internet war with Bronies, It took a very long time but it was stopped in June 2014. Here's the reason why. I was on the internet normally like always until I saw the video Starscream Vs. Rainbow Dash! Obviously I watched it since I know the transformers cartoon and the movie. But it all changed when I saw Rainbow Dash. I thought to myself, "This is for girls, why do I think this character is awesome?" I wont spoil the video. Watch it if you haven't. When it was done, I watched more pony related videos. I thought they were very well made. But then I realized what I was doing. I tried to stop but it wouldn't work.
Then I changed my mind on June 6 around 9:00 PM. I learned about how much Bronies were bullied for liking the show. One tried to commit suicide. In comments of every article, there were haters who typed the most offensive comments ever typed. It was terrible. I stopped being an Anti-Brony after that because that's a lot like bullying. On that night I learned an important lesson. People are allowed to like different things even if they seem bizarre. And I should never forget that haters are gonna hate.
I had a choice between going back to my life or try watching one episode since many fans claim its a great show.
I decided that I'll try watching and see if I would like it or not. I found episode one online and watched the entire thing without skipping any part. It was a two part so I watched the second episode. After finishing them, I was a different person. What I mean by that was I liked it. I wanted to watch more. Who cares if its for girls, I really enjoyed it.
One of my old friends was a Brony. I started talking to him when I wanted to watch more episodes without my parents knowing. He said he will invite me over to his house but he has to think of what day. I waited for a reply but he never called me once. The only other way I could watch more episodes was if I told my parents. But that wouldn't be easy because I'm over the age of 15 and that would feel awkward. When I was in the car with mom, I drew a picture of Rainbow Dash. She finally saw me drawing the picture and said, "That looks like My Pretty Pony." When I heard that, I knew that's the old title of My Little Pony in the 70s before it was changed. I turned to mom and said, "Ummm...yes it is...kinda. There's a TV show that came out a few years ago that I wanted to see. A friend of mine told me its good and he's male." Mom did not say anything about it being strange. It must be because she's friends with my friend's mom. She told me that we could order a DVD of season one. I agreed and the order came in two weeks. Man, I have the best mom ever.
I watched the entire season. Then I watched the others. I felt like I missed out on a lot. I wished I tried watching The Hub channel before my family gave up Direct TV in 2011. On my birthday, I got two pony collectables and RD headphones. I'm not kidding around, I really got that on my birthday. I placed them next to my Doctor Who collection. When I was looking through places in my laptops library, I found a forgotten picture of a horse running away from an eagle. I knew I forgotten to delete the picture but I kept it as an "artifact" or as a reminder of my past life. My desktop background was a picture I drew of Rainbow Dash dressed as scout from team fortress. Ironically, If that picture went back one year ago and I found it on my screen, I would have punched a hole.
Only my family and my friend knows that I'm what fans call themselves, a Brony. I cant conclude if I'm a closet Brony or just a Brony. I'm unable to find other people in my school who like the show since I cannot just walk up to them and say if they watch My Little Pony Friendship is Magic. That's until I discovered this server and this website. So far, the server was one of the only places where I can talk to fans of the show.
But it was very hard to talk to them since everyone had different opinions about the characters, the stories, and their favorite thing. This is where it all went wrong. I had a cold when I was in the server on September 12. I still couldn't move on after learning that one of my favorite actors, Robin Williams was dead. He played as Teddy Roosevelt in Night At The Museum who was my favorite president. I thought I would cheer up if I played on this server since anything MLP FiM makes me happy. When I showed up, I heard negative comments about Rainbow Dash, Gilda being the best character, and about Applejack being a plot tool. So many flaws were pointed out in the comments. I grew tired and typed without thinking, "I'm leaving! I will stop playing with ponies and I will grow up like a real man." I left the server. I realized what I have done and attempted to come back in order to apologize but I was too late. I've been banned for not being happy here.
The next day, I went to my friend and told him what happened. He was nice enough to turn on his computer and connect to the server himself. He typed why I was banned to the players. Staff replied that I was banned for being negative in the server. He typed that I was sorry. They typed that the only way I could apologize was to join the forum and make an appeal. My friend handed me the computer so I could respond. I typed "Its me R0adRunt, I'm sorry that I was negative on the server." But it didn't work. There was only one way to unban me because that's how it was programed. I typed "I'll go to the site and do it." Then I said bye and left. Here I am sitting in my room writing this story for Brohoof.com. Soon, I'll try to unban myself. I am really sorry that I said that, "I will stop playing with ponies..." that would never happen since I love ponies especially Fluttershy.
I wanted to thank you Brohoof.com for making the pony world that I wish I could visit come true. I also wanted to thank you for making the pony characters from the show feel like they are in the server too. I am proud that I joined the Herd. Without My Little Pony Friendship is Magic, we wouldn't all have learned the magic of friendship or met each other in the first place. Even though my childhood is over, I believe that I'm still learning as I grow up. One of the important things I still need to accomplish is to make real friends.
My name is Road Runt. What's your name?
Update 9/14/14
Yesterday, I was unbanned. I'm happy that staff believed I took what I said back. I will never do anything like that ever again in my lifetime. I hope I can make new friends in the server, participate in any future activities, and learn new things. Lets hope I can talk to Rainbow Dash. Last time, she was sleeping.
Update 9/15/14
I typed a story about my character. I never really gave him a backstory. So I decided to make his story about him being new to Ponyville and his everyday life. What I didn't include was where he came from. I am the only person who knows. Its up for you to decide.
PS. If you see any grammar mistakes on my profile, please report them.
Update 9/18/2014
Today I looked for another Brony in my school. I stopped being friends with the only one I know because I just didn't think we could get along. It's too bad since he's the oldest Brony I knew since over half a year before I joined the herd. The only way I could find one was by asking "Ever heard of a Brony?" or "Do you know where I could find a Brony?" I never tell non-bronies that I'm a fan of the show because they will find it obviously strange. Many responded that they never heard of one. I was surprised since most of the people in my school play with the internet. I only found some who know about Bronies but they have no idea if there's any in my school. I tried asking girls expecting to find Pegasisters. I came across some who claimed they know a Brony. I asked them where and they took me to a boy in a green zombie shirt. I sat down with him and said to him, "So your a Brony right?" "I sure am!" He said. I asked him, "Is there any other Bronies you know in the school?" He answered, "Yes your brother is a Brony." I did not believe him because my brother does not care for the show. He seemed to treat the ponies in Gmod as if they were Barney the Dinosaur. I decided to ask him an important question, "What's your favorite pony?" He said to me, "The purple one. I don't know his name." I said "Very funny kid." and left him alone at the table. I should of known he was a troll. I will try to look for one again in the future or maybe, I'll try getting one into the fandom which I never tried before.
Update 10/16/2014
Recently, I tried to get my non-brony friend to watch one episode of the show. So far he either claims he forgot about it or believe it might not do it for him. I then told him to watch PFUDOR (Pink Fluffy Unicorns Dancing On Rainbows) I will type his reaction when I see him again. So far, I tried to get some guys to watch the show. Its pretty hard since most males would normally say no. But what I wanted to teach them was to never judge a book by its cover.
I will try making updates every few or several months for now on since I have no idea if the page has a limit. I may be the longest profile in the forums. All of this writing proves how lonely I am from the lack of Bronies in my school.
Update 11/29-30/2014
Heres an update. A month ago, my friend watched PFUDOR and liked it. He still didn't watch MLP FiM yet.
Update 12/12/2014
Hey there. I been busy making a "Mini Movie" for YouTube. Its a horror film about an alien that had to survive on earth. The alien captures and eats human beings since they were the easiest prey to find. The movies main character named Stewart shows his unbelievable encounter with this unknown advanced extra-terrestrial. I spent over $100 dollars on music, special effects, camera tools, and costumes just for this movie. I'm the Director, Writer, Producer, Cameraman, Editor, Prop designer, Special effects guy, and maybe a stunt actor of the movie. No, I'm not the only person making it. My friends, teachers, and even my Grandma are helping me. The reason why I have so many "jobs" at once was that there were not so many people I know who have the time or have the knowledge about movie making except for my friend who has a YouTube account called SEG productions. What I'm concerned the most was for the movie not being so scary and possibly sucking. I wouldn't be surprised if the video has less than 100 views and mostly dislikes. But I'm trying it anyway because I wanted to see if I have the ability to make good films. I watched so many YouTube videos and seen many movies. I never been happy with any of them just because I always see at least one flaw the first time I watch it. That includes Spielberg!!! I realized that I have the ability to see lots of detail in movies, can easily recognize audio splices, and identify plot holes or things that didn't work. I wanted to use this gift to correct my movie before its release and see if It goes anywhere. That's what I've been doing this past 2 months.
Update 1/29/2015
Its been forever since I updated. I'm surprised that my profile views went up to nearly 150. If, you're wondering what happened to me, I was busy with school, animating, and working on the movie I previously talked about. About 20% of the movie is finished. If my actors were not really busy with their lives, it would have been finished.
But that's not really important. Here's the news I wanted to tell you all. I now have a Youtube account. It has the same username and so far I uploaded one video. The video is for the 2015 White House Student Film Festival. I highly doubt that I'll ever win but I tried anyway. Here's the link to the video...
Also Let me know if you see any grammar mistakes on the overview page. I'm not the best writer. Thank you all for making half the year in Brohoof.com worth it.

Update 5/16/2015
I'm back everypony. I have a confession to make. Over a month ago, I finally grew tired about the fandom and tried to quit. Yes, I attempted to leave the herd. It's because bronies were very frowned upon and the whole EG "thing" was spreading. Since the Hub network was dead, I tried to move on to other shows. But after I put my collection away in a drawer, the outside world constantly reminds me about it. My friends, my situations, wherever I go on the internet. Even if I watch a youtube video thats not related to the show, it suddenly pops up out of nowhere! Every icon picture on youtube has at least one pony! Worst of all was that whenever I go to sleep, I would dream about ponies! Infact, its impossiable spend an entire day without thinking about them. And in my mind, fanmade dubstep plays constantly. You can call me crazy but the fandom follows me! It's like a Soviet Russian Joke, "You dont follow Bronies, Bronies follow you!". This update was originally planned to be my finale but I'm unable to move on.To let you know, I'm listening to DJ PON-3's music while typing this. Is there a term for this disability because I have it severely.
BTW the Horror Movie is finished. I'll post it but not very soon. Man, I've noticed that my "About Me" page has some issues.
Here's one of my fan art. It's called Rainbow Scout

Update 10/3/2015
Hi guys, I've fixed my grammar and words on the last post. I've noticed that I used the word "consious" (Aware of and responding to ones surroundings; awake) instead of "mind" for some reason. I sometimes dont get enough sleep which was why some of my writing is awkward.
You all remembered that I cannot overcome my addiction to ponies. That has changed. Over the summer, I've been watching an anime called One Piece. I decided to give it a go because most of my friends watch it. The show was only ok at the beginning but it gets better later on. I'm getting off topic, this is a brony forum. I'm getting a little distant from the show. It's not that a new EG movie "Friendship Games" was released and that I'm not a fan of the whole concept. Its that I've been so busy with my life. I'm planning to make this my official last post since I've forgotten that my "About Me" was not a personal journal.
If you want to see more about me, visit my youtube channel called Road Runt or my deviantart account with the same name.
