We're getting old...

[SunPony]

I'd like to see some things from throughout the 20 year period.  I just don't know what format that would take.  Maybe some of the most popular threads from each year or something?  Maybe some data analyses would be cool, too.

Art contest or custom contest could be cool, too, I would most likely participate.

my goodness has it been that long?

[Loa]

my goodness has it been that long?

dragonfly is definitely that old!

[Aflame]

wow! I feel so old!! but I think come competitions would be ace customs, drawing, puzzles   I would say custom swap but I dont know how many would sign up for it as postage is crazy expensive now :/

[ChocolateStarfire]

I agree with throwback photos, older posts, maybe a coloring contest? I'm honestly glad the Arena is here, and it's amazing that it's that old! <3

[stjarne]

i vote for coloring contest!! all these ideas do sound fun but some i'd probably be unable to participate in (custom contest, etc)

[Eskara1862]

Wow... I refuse to believe the Arena has been around that long! Noooo! how crazy And I certainly agree that it's worthy of celebration! I do like the idea of some sort of contest!

[Galactica]

Wow, 20 years is impressive!

Wow, that is alot of time, that I did not want to face.  I still remember the magical feeling of finding this forum.

I joined MLP Arena in 2006 - but I was collecting MLPs for my granddaughter long before this.
GD fell out of ponies - onto Braatz Dolls etc.etc. - I went on and on and on and collected thousands of Nirvanas, all USA releases and bought, renewed old returned to glory - dirty tired ponies - My hobby
Now I am OLD.
Now I am Retired - and selling off my huge collection - it was fun and I love it and learnt a lot.
What to do for 20 years MLPs?? Photos of collections - 2- 2000! Whatever! Sets, singles - favourites.
Happy 20th MLP Arena!

Photos of Collections! YES! Although I have a youngin so all the ponies are in boxes or else the tot will claim them. She already claimed all my custom paint test fakies, including the headless and disembodied heads that don't match the former. Maybe I will photograph her collection because I find it so hilarious.

Oh my! Time flies! I also remember the magic in finding this place. The Arena was a huuuge part of me getting into MLPs again. I really only wanted to know how to clean and take care of my childhoods, and then my sister found the Arena and it was done! We both got hooked
