This will sound cheesy but...

Thanks for being here guys. I don't know where could I've possibly go without you.

I've taken a look around MLPforums for the sake of comparison and I just can't stand the amount of tunnel-vision there, people still thinking their fandom is growing, and asking about how could they 'convert' others, brohoofs, memes, terrible OCs and, argh, it hurts.

But you... You can understand how am I feeling right now. You are all sharing the love for other generations, the toys, and don't jump into making the same overused jokes over and over and over again. You are tolerant, accepting, and don't gang upon someone who dares disagree with the 'facts formed by the majority'.

You guys can see, and not just look.

I feel like after a long search I've finally found my place to be a part of. For that'd I'd like to thank you.

You do know that the majority of the people making stupid posts like that are usually just high school kids, right? I think it's something that gets overlooked by a lot of people.  If I were into MLP when I was their age, I doubt I'd be much different.

That said, I still prefer it here where I can talk to other people who have the same addiction to buying colorful toy horses.

The Arena is a pretty awesome place

[DazzleKitty]

This is my favorite forum hands down. I don't feel judged by what I post. I have a lot in common here. Not just with ponies and toys, but we all share our problems and I can relate. All generations get love here. The people have her maturity too, which is awesome. I hope the Arena is around for years to come. I've met some great people here.

I think part of the warmth of the Arena comes from how long it's been around.  It's one of a very few pony forums that I'm aware of that sprouted up several years before the current mode of popularity was even a thought, and it's grown and accepted everyone of amiable temperament through every following generation   I LOVE the Arena!  Even when I go through collecting hiatuses, it's still just as friendly and fun as when I'm actively searching out ponies.  The people (and our admins!!) here really do make this a wonderful community!

I love it here too, although I do miss the old look of the forum. Aside from one thing, I've had a pretty good time here.

[DalaPony]

I think this is my favourite forum anywhere    It's so friendly and welcoming, and full of useful information as well as fun.  I'm really glad I found this place

[mlp4me]

Yup, the arena is a wonderful pony community.  We have amazingly-awesome mods that keep things in check. (Honestly most of my internet time is spent here.)
