I first heard about this show on this forum about 2 weeks ago. I saw the first 2 episodes and I liked it mostly because it makes the world seem such a happy place. I will not get too much into fandom, mostly because I have the feeling I shouldn't be watching it since I am a 25 year old male. I pretend not to watch it, but at the same time I try to get my friends to watch it who, generally speaking have the same reaction to the lines of "Yeah, I've heard about it, maybe I'll watch it, but... it's My Little Pony "
How did you first get into the show?
How deep into the fandom do you get?
Do you have limits on how deep into the fandom you will go?
What is your favorite pony-related picture?
First encounter was the Ponycraft 2 video when it was posted on the Halolz site, no real interest at first but watched the video again a few weeks later and got curious about the art style so I searched Youtube if I could find any similar videos or episodes, viola!
The only real site I go to for pony info is here on the Escapist, otherwise I like to search Youtube for funny videos both pony related and not, lots of good music remixes too. I like to draw so a few small pony pictures has made their way onto papers near my vicinity.
My furthest depth into the fandom is probably what I'm working on at the moment but I won't say anymore until it's done.
I like the show very much so spoiling it is something I try to avoid, so all kinds of Rule 34 pics or dark/horror stories are a big NONO (reason also to why I mostly just stay with the Escapist). Besides that I don't really read much fanfics at all mostly because I lack interest and time to read them.
I'm sitting at work when writing this so I don't have access to my vast library of pictures but I do have a few good ones stored here.

I like the show and the funny images it creates, doesn't really go much farther than that. I never visit any of the Chan sites where this supposedly became popular.

I certainly won't be buying any pony-related toys anytime soon. >_>
I think the farthest I may go is a possible avatar change here on the Escapist and/or a new pony spray in TF2. Although I seem to have an unhealthy obsession with Applejack for reasons I can't explain. :l

Haha! Already hooked one ^_^ I shall redouble my efforts and not let work sap too much time and energy. Very touch-and-go atm but I'll work as fast as I can.
I had noticed MLP avatars popping up, but thought nothing of it. When I saw that TimeLord had changed his avatar, I figured it must be good to convince the resident Doctor Who nut to have something non-Doctor Who related as his avatar. So I went and watched the first episode, and loved it.
I only really watch the show, and the trailer remixes. I tend to stay away from fanfics and stuff like that.
It's My Little Pony....why does their joy make me so happy!?
But yeah, it was Derpy Hooves that got me. I couldn't help but laugh when I saw a gif.
So I gave in and started watching.
Now I cant stop.
I'm a Brony now. Now and Forever.
-Me thinking "What the hell, I'll do it for the lulz" with medium expectations. It's a darn good thing I was still bored after the pilot, otherwise I never would've seen episode 3 and been properly hooked.
How deep into the fandom do you get?
-Not very deep. I'm in the Escapist group, I check the MLP Online status every now and then and I watch new episodes pretty much as soon as I can.
Do you have limits on how deep into the fandom you will go?
-I don't see much point going any deeper, I'm not really into fandoms. Hell, the only site I've spent more than about a year on is this one (other than obviously youtube, facebook, etc)

Ehh, I first heard about it on 4chan's /co/ board. Decided to check it out to see what the fuss was all about, found all the episodes on Youtube.

I don't go deep. I don't even enter the goddamn pool. /co/ may be relatively civilised, but it's still The Internet. I just watch the episodes, and maybe join the thread that appears when a new episode is being streamed

See my last answer
What is your favorite pony-related picture?
Oh god, I don't know. Something with Pinkie Pie in it probably? She's my favourite.
Hmm, around late January early Febuary I saw a pony thread on 4chan's /co/ board (Oh please, 4chan is not a bad place, that's just /b/) and was like 'Oh, what's this!'
Now I enjoy good animation, so at first when I saw the thread I didn't really care, but the days after that I saw a sudden increase in pony threads, mind you this was near the very start of 'bronydom' and there was little pony related material elsewhere on the internet, so I decided to give it a shot since I get easily convinced :3.
-How deep into the fandom do you get?
Ohhh let's just say that
* In Chrome my 4 most visted sites are ; Escapist, Equestria Daily, Ponychan, and Youtube.
* I have a 236MB Pony Pictures File.
* I have a 134MB Pony Music File (Containing the latest Eurobeat Brony's and Pony Dubstep)
* I play at least 1 Pony Music song every day on Audiosurf and Beat Hazard :-D
* My Desktop and Chrome themes are Pony related
* I wake up every Saturday (New Zealand) excited as s*** for the next pony episode to get uploaded on youtube .
* I have at least 2 pony tabs open up in chrome at any given time, occasionally browsed.
-Do you have limits on how deep into the fandom you will go?
I enjoy ponies and everything they represent, they're charming, the show is clever, the animation is superb (possibly the best flash animation I've ever seen!), and every single character is likeable, even if I hated them at first (eg. Spike and Rarity).
However, being a Straight 15 year old Male...
There are certain constraints that I have put up for myself.
These include not fully showing my Bronyhood (Even if I really, really want to).
This is the reason that so far I have no set up a Pony Avatar nor have I told anyone at my school about it. I've thrown in references such as '20% Cooler' and 'Oatmeal, are you Crazy?' but to no avail, I can confirm that none of my friends are bronies. It's even worse considering I am from New Zealand, and the only way to know about the show from here is via The Escapist, 4chan, or some other minor site, they haven't really shown themselves in places such as reddit or facebook that much..
And that was assuming my friends ever use the internet for anything other than Facebook. Telling my friends would only garner a negative response, and portray me as a hipster or a 'weirdo' or something. Unless it gets more popular and possibly comes to New Zealand, I'll keep it covert for now :3.
So apart from showing it in public, I consider my pony fandom above average.

DON'T MAKE ME CHOOSE D:<<<
Ok fine, probably:
Mainly because Pinkie Pie is my favourite character and it just looks epic .
Yes, I wasn't very interested in the whole pony thing... till I saw this
Well, as far as how far in I am, I'm happy to tell my closest friends that I'm a fan. I just watch the episodes.
As for how deep I'll go, I think I'm at the limit of how deep I'll go.
