Title: Reunited and it feels so good!
Post by: munchy on August 12, 2023, 05:36:45 PM: Hello (again) pony people! I've been away from the Arena for a few years now--life got in the way as it so often does. My job got stressful, I got a masters degree, and ponies just weren't a priority anymore. I was never a super active poster before I fell out of ponies, but I used to check this site just about every hour all through college and my twenties, which I think qualifies to me to be considered a hardcore lurker haha! The big shift to Facebook was really the end for me as I'm not active there.

BUT the other day I was just sitting around, minding my own business, and all of a sudden I was hit by a realization: I missed ponies! They made me so happy, and this is such a wonderful community, and I wanted that warm fuzzy feeling back in my life. So here I am!

I've been collecting for...my whole life? My primary focus has always been g1, but I have a little of everything. I'm getting ready to part with my g3 and g4 stuff and clear some space out so I can focus my attention fully on the stuff I really love.

I agree that while our priorities might change slightly over the years, ponies do always bring this element of joy. Glad you're back to share in more joy with us!
