Hello!

[misskindle]

Hi! I'm a longtime lurker on the Arena, but I haven't made an account until recently. I'm 15 now, and have been keeping up with the pony news on this site and the MLPTP since I was ~10ish. I'm from Salem, Oregon (or So-Lame Oregon.)
I personally collect all the generations of ponies, and have been doing so since I was 3. I was a spoiled child, and that led to a full-blown pony addiction.
My cat loves to play with ponies with me (mainly batting them out of my hands as I brush their hair), and my family and friends are very supportive of my large collection. I'm excited to be here, so good day to you all, I hope we get along!

Welcome to the arena How many ponies do you have in your collection?

[misskindle]

An embarrassing amount... most likely around 100 to 150.

Hi there! Welcome to the Arena!

I'd say that's an awesome amount! I'm just starting my collection: I have 11 ponies. It's wonderful that your family supports you in your love of ponies. A hobby like this is so much better and goes so much smoother when loved ones are on board.

Have a great day!

Hi and welcome to the Arena

Wow, you already have a pretty good sized pony collection.  Watch out because I bet it gets even bigger now that you are here!

Welcome to the Arena.  That is so cool your family supports your collection.  Do keep in mind though that until you are 16 you can not sell or trade on our board.  You can buy though. LOL

Hello, misskindle! Welcome to the Arena!

I wouldn't say that's an embarrassing amount, I'm a little older than you and currently rocking a collection of about 200 ponies! Some members have even more! It's great that your family is supportive of it, hopefully you'll start being more active now. Enjoy the forums!

Welcome to the Arena

My cats love ponies too.  Mostly they try to cuddle them like kittens and lick their hair (kinda gross!) but cute all at once. 

Look forward to seeing you around the forum

Welcome to the Arena! Sounds like you have a pretty impressive collection of ponies already. I hope you have a good time here.
