So, I've suddenly got an urge to go to a con for the first time in my life. Do you have any experience with them? Are they fun? Can you realistically make new friends? Is it worth it going alone? Maybe there's a yuropoor anon willing to go to one with a complete stranger.

I swear I am not datamining.

>>313356 (OP)

>Do you have any experience with them?

Small ones, but hey, still a con.

>Are they fun?

Yes, fun is subjective. Really. Do you like to act like a massive ponyfag with other massive ponyfags in a safe space? Or do you like to look and quietly laugh at other massive ponyfags acting like massive ponyfags?

>Can you realistically make new friends?

If you find another first timer like yourself, you betcha. I made one friend through a con.

>Is it worth it going alone?

Hard to say. If you're a guy that want to at least experience a pony con and a merchfag, go for it. I see no harm on getting some merch since these things are hard to come by on normal terms.

Hey, we're back.

Ive been to four cons. The first two times I was alone, and my crippling autism prevented me from making more than one-line remarks at others when they tried to start a conversation. If you've got any kind of social anxiety, and you probably do considering where we are, a convention is a good place to work that out. Remember, everyone at that autistic pony convention is there for the exact same reason you are: small horse. So you can really be yourself and indulge in all the really cringey aspects of the fandom without feeling out of place. Of course, like everything else, it's better when you have friends but it's a different experience then.

/pone/cast is coming to bronycon if you want to stop by and say hi

You can be a super cool guy and drop some lsd at a con with some friends.

>>313368

Good times ahead.

OP here, I'll probably go to Galacon, it's in Germ-money at the end of July. Although I'm slightly worried that it's going to be like 90% krauts and my knowledge of German ends at "Ich heisse Anon und ich mag kleine Pferde." So how screwed am I, if at all?

Also not really related, but it seems to me like all of the subculture stuff in Europe, not just ponyfaggotry, is concentrated in Germany. I mean, France is approximately as big and is used to be a major political and cultural influence on the world as well, but I've never seen anything interesting organized there, let alone in the rest of EU (UK doesn't count). Is it because they got the worst of it in WWII, a la Japan? Or is it just natural kraut autism?

>>313356 (OP)

I went to trotcon one year. Did nothing but people-watch and go to panels because everyone over 21 is drinking and everyone younger came with their own cliques.

Plan on going to Bronycon this year. Not a fan of Discords but I may or may not say hello to the /pone/ guys. Going to be dropping my parents off with relatives in the suburbs and then going down to the con, technically illegally because I only have temps and then either walking or using public transportation to get everywhere. I got no idea what bigger cons are like or really how miserable it will be, but I figure that if I don't like it I can always just sight-see around the city. Shooting to buy another plush as well, though. Iunno. Only way you're going to make friends at events like these is if you're an extrovert.

I'd like to go just to experience a con once, perhaps next year with members of the /pone/cast. assuming this board is still alive next year. so dead we didn't even have a welcome back thread after 8chins came back up I would have gone this year but was robbed by members of my local nigger population and don't have the money.

Check us out if you make it, we're actually pretty cool guys.

>>313387

Even if the board gets deader than it is now, the discord will keep going since it's not strictly MLP related and we have and share other interests.

Niggercattle can never be cool, anon. That's a fact.

We cant make a welcome back thread. I tried right when the board was restored, if you've noticed, captcha for thread creation is broken and we kinda cant make threads without it. unless a certain Donald wants to change the board settings

They can if you stick 'em in the freezer after you run them over with your car.

Well if you're capable of human interaction with normal people just kidding we're all fucking autists it works.

I'm thinking that I'm going to bronycon this year if I can get the time off. I think I'd have a good time if I could group up with some of you guys, assuming you aren't insane or homosexual.


ace77e (3)  No.313417>>313418

I've been to a few cons, but all of them were these really big anime/general fantasy-themed ones, with only trace amounts of pony. Not fun at all to me when you don't really share the same hobby. I wish I could go to one like Galacon (Yuro here), but I'd be going alone, it'd be my first journey abroad, I don't have a plan what I would do there, and I'm really not good with people. Oh, and I don't speak German, either. But I still want to see one. Maybe next year.

>>313417

Where are you from, anon? We could meet up somewhere halfway to Ludwigsburg, I've been to German-speaking countries quite a few times, so you won't have to worry about anything. Plus you still have two months to prepare for the con, you can still go this year.


ace77e (3)  No.313419>>313420

>>313418

Oh shit. Thanks for the offer, but I'm way too uncomfortable with meeting up with anons, being borderline shut-in myself. But try asking the OP instead.


9a52e3 (3)  No.313420>>313424

>>313419

Yeah, I AM the OP, my ID changed for some reason.

And, come on nigger, I am in the same boat as you, the last person I could call friend left for Hueland 4 years ago, and I've been a complete loser with a non-existent social circle ever since. Life has given us a chance to have some fun with real people for once, you should not squander it like that (remember, the only thing you take to the grave with you is regret).

I live in Prague btw.

>>313420

You're right. There might not be another chance to do something like this. Look, I'll do my best not to pussy out. I live in western Poland. If that's good enough for you, give me some way to keep in touch, and then let's try to make this happen. I can already smell the spaghetti.

Great! Here's my burner mail. We should play some vidya together in the meantime, to get to know each other in a natural way.

Make sure to have fun.
