Happy 8th birthday, MLP:FiM!
 
I never thought I would like MLP so much. Even though I’ve been aware of its existence since March 2011 (I remember seeing a lot of pony avatars and signatures on Minecraft Forums), I only started watching the show in June 2017. I was really anxious at the idea of watching a show about pastel-colored horses, which is why it took me so long to get started. I eventually convinced myself to watch an episode (I settled on S05E01 after asking a few people about it). I had heard good things about the show, but it was even better than I expected — I found the animation and voice acting pretty good, and the characters very well-designed. As they say, the rest is history — so far, I watched 6 seasons out of 8, plus the movie (which I really liked too).
 
MLP definitely changed my life for the better — its wholesome values shaped my personality ever since I started watching the show, and I’ve met lots of very nice people in the fandom.
 
Thanks for all the ponies :)

I’m sorry, I’ll never like the previous generations, you’ve gotta understand that they’re not as good as g4.

@L. Cully  
I better hope you’re not turning my words against me.

@sTs  
I agree, there’s nothing wrong at all with people liking different things. :)
 
Just like everyone has their own idea of what’s likeable and what isn’t. ;)

@L. Cully
 
Besides, I’m sure he would love Minty if he gave her a chance. The way she says her lines is so amusing. It’s like a certain song once said…
 
“Why not try? Just give it a chance? You might just find you’ll start to understand.”

@sTs
 
“And believe me, I have nothing against you liking the previous generations, I just hope you understand that they’re not as likable as g4.”
 
lol what. It doesn’t work that way.
 
Likeability is subjective.

Yay!

Yay, cake!

8 freaking years, damn these liquid pride

Congratulations!

@Pirill  
Congratulations on the feature!

And believe me, I have nothing against you liking the previous generations, I just hope you understand that they’re not as likable as g4.

@sTs  
Oh yes, don’t worry, I wasn’t trying to convert you (unless you wanted to be converted, which you don’t; I respect that).  
I know there are (more than) a few good bronies who do not enjoy previous gens, and that’s okay.

@Binkyt11
 
@Havock  
Certainly.

@Binkyt11  
I think the whole world agrees with that.

@Yet One More Idiot  
If there’s one thing all fans and haters of certain generations can agree on is that Newborn Cuties was a mistake.

@kleptomage  
So do I.

“tempus fugit”

I’ve been in the fandom for five years now, and it still feels like I joined just a couple months ago.  
Happy birthday MLP!

It’s been a little over six years since I started watching MLP. Back then I never thought I would still be a fan of a show about magical cartoon ponies six years later. It came as a surprise to many, I believe. Who could have foreseen how many lives the show would touch?
 
At the end of the day, I’m glad to be on the ride.

@Binkyt11  
I do not care

@Background Pony #1FE3  
Yeah they should’ve, she’s clearly canon, she was even mention in the season 8 premier.

@sTs  
Minty was G3’s Derpy. And plus she does have some g4 toys.

they should include tempest for the movie

@Background Pony #B70B  
If that character’s name is form g3, I don’t want to know.
