When the new show first aired, when bronies wasn't even a term, there was some TV reviewer or critic that talked about how modern cartooning is dead, putting My Little Pony at the highlight. So one day, some random person found the article and posted it on the site not to be mentioned. There, after some time, the Pony love grew over time, however, that love led to some "revolutions" for lack of a better word.
The overflowing of ponies on that site caused the admin and mods there to issue bans to anyone posting or talking about ponies in anyway. It was mostly because that site at one point was divided between the lovers and haters. That's all that would happen there. That's why you may have seen the "mods are asleep: post ponies" or "banned: back in 10 seconds flat" images at some point. Despite the efforts, the love and tolerance stood strong.
So after some time, the rule against ponies was eventually lifted and the internet eventually moved on to the next thing to rage about. They even got their own pony section on the site, or so I'm told. Within time, this love eventually spread outside of the forbidden site into other domains, both on the internet and in reality. It was around this time that the term "brony" was coined.
And so within time, the writers discovered the fanbase, and the show now belongs to them instead of the "original" demographic, thus strenghting the bond of the bronies and their love for My Little Pony. The war continues as it does now, but it's clear it is here to stay for a good while. And that's the story of how we are here now.
