General Discussion

What can I say, it's been a while, god damn. I joined iBrony pretty early into it's life and quickly rose up the ranks to helping out with staff stuff despite not being staff myself. Eventually I did become staff and the rest is kind of history. IB died, started PhM with Ratchet, went solo owner for a bit, site died because of some stupid circumstances, and now somehow some way, iBrony has risen back again. It's pretty surreal and it feels like coming full circle. Never having a proper resolution or send off to iBrony or PhM, feels weird to come back again.   I've mainly returned to the furry community after I took a hiatus prior to my brony phase. I don't really use LB that much anymore, but it is nice to go through all the art I got of him back then. It'll be interesting to see what happens with this site.

Blue horse here.  I was a massive dick back in the day, yada yada, but as with the rest of y’all, I’ve managed to reflect and grow into a slightly more tolerable person.  I mean, I’m about to finish undergrad and be a music educator, so I’d call that an improvement from chronic truancy and social ineptitude.  My hobbies haven’t really changed, though: computer science, outdoorsy stuff, baking, whatever.  Oh, and I fell into the brony→furry pipeline. ¶ Anyway, my memory is absolutely shot, as I’ve mentioned prior; I was on Seroquel for a portion of my adolecense and as such remember very little of 2013–15 at this point.  That being said, please forgive me if I misremember some stuff or don’t remember you at all.  Kind of in the same vein, I’ve been compiling a directory of former iBrony and PhilomenaMagikz users so that these memories aren’t completely lost to the sands of time. ¶ (edit: attempted paragraph breaks and eventually pilcrows)

Hello!~ I found out about this through a friend, I have jumped around on a few sites in the past, from ponysquare to CA and a couple more, though considering personal situations at the time never stayed too long in the last places, though having everything back on track and better then before, I am happy to say I joined in here, I am currently a beginning artist though mainly fill bases and make custom backgrounds for personal use, I still enjoy writing quite a bit so may post something in the future, unlike before I also fully enjoy social interactions with others, so no doubt ill be posting often more then I used to at least. looking forward to meeting and talking with you all.

Hellooo!!! Found out about this from the PhilomenaMagikz Discord server! I was Acrylic Splash, when I joined in 2012, I've only updated my look and name since then, jumping on every single pony site :3 I was completely addicted to forum roleplay, and adding everyone. And I was an artist, that one is still the same! <3

Y'all know who I am. XD But its good to see you guys again.

I found out about the site's revival through a discord server

It's me. The blue horse. I was very active on ib, phm, and some of the other brony sites back in the day. I also helped out with the derpcraft servers which still exist. My memories of the old ibrony days aren't great. I was pretty mean to people back then and often got involved in drama which I'm not proud of. Now I'm still mean but in a funny way.

A decade. Doesn't quite sink in so I shall begin where I can remember I left off. I'm no longer in the United States Air Force, and now work in a powdered metal plant. I've given up on RPing, but that has been replaced with writing. Also, basically a full on furry now. Glad to see some old faces and I'm sure I'll see plenty of new faces. Oh! You may recognize my name as Vinyl, the blue and white Dutch Angel Dragon. 

holy heck it is 2012 all over again lol I'm Whisper I was RainbowClash on og iBrony and created Whisper at some point before it ended :P iBrony PHM cutiemarks I was in and around. dropped off heavey, transitioned and now here it is iBrony is back Bayyybeee and I'm seeing all these familier profile pics and it's just wonderfull.

Hello all! I'm Arekkusu, former iBrony and PhM user who went by the name of Equinox back in the day. Will most likely lurk around the site, but it's good to be back nonetheless! Hoping to run into some old friends as time goes on <3

Blessings to you! I am Lauda Dash. I used the old IBrony, Pony Square, PhM, Canterlot Avenue, and others back when they were still around. The guy above poked me and gave me a heads-up that IB was back. We'll see how long it lasts this time. Although I am barely active these days, I sure do hope to see some more friendly faces in here. It feels great to be back.  

I'm just here to see how long until I'm banned for past transgressions. :D Even though I've calmed the heck down over the years.    ~Formerly Violyre

Hiya. I'm Crashie, used to be on the old IB/CM/PHM sites back in the day. been a while since i've looked into the mlp communities really, been busy with life and studies.  hope to see more known faces from before and potentially speak to new/old friends again.   It feels nostalgic to be back again.

Hi! I'm Heaven Beat and I can definitely say I've grown up around brony chatrooms/websites like these. I think when I originally joined the site I was barely 11? Now I'm 22, still much into MLP and still into drawing them just way way better. It's been such a long time since I've put myself back out into social spaces due to embarrassment of how I was when I was little. I mean, I've had discord but we know how promising that can be. I hope I get to see more returning users and even new ones pop up here and there! I'm set on making more MLP art and less drama along the way :D It's good to be back. :sparkling_heart:

Hello, I'm Pegono Comet. 10 years passed by fast, and I'm surprised I'm somehow still here. I was in iBrony, to PhM, and I was more into the IRC chat of the time when it was available. I grew up a lot. I'm thankful for the moments I got to experience here and grateful for the patience people had with me. If I did anything wrong, then I apologize on that. Regardless, I'm glad to be back and I hope to meet old and new faces!

How did I miss this? I joined iBrony in spring of 2012 and fell headfirst into RPing with Doctor Whooves. I stuck around through most of it (with a short break to try out BronyNet in 2013) and then followed onto PhM after iBrony died. I tried out PonySquare, BronySquare, Cutiemarks, all the big name pony sites, but none of them held the magic of the original iB. So I moped around Skype and Discord for ten years until suddenly, by chance, I discovered that iBrony had returned from the grave to feast upon the spirits of... I mean, to provide a wonderful social platform for all creatures pony. And here I am, much to everyone's dissapointment.

Returning user from iB G1. Hello, all!

I've been on iBrony, PhilomenaMagikz, Cutie Marks... this feels like coming home again after years away. Hoping to see some old faces I haven't seen in a long time, and plenty of new ones.

I just stumbled here, I never used iBrony much back in the original form, my hangouts were elsewhere in those times,  but look forward to this!
