Ah, what intriguing perspective, Chatterbox. You truly are unique.
The values demonstrated in MLP are something I've long known and loved, and seeing the show didn't change them. I just found that it was a neat show, but what really got me interested was the fandom, for precisely the reason you listed. Such positivity, such inspiration. I've made quite a few friends who consider themselves bronies and I appreciate their company. It's always uplifting to see people feel better about themselves and learn more about people and life and what have you. Even if that were gone, though, I'd still enjoy the show.
As for the "big difference" between what I am, personally, and what I used to be, I'm not sure that's changed... with the exceptions of more perspective, occasionally less patience, and an odd penchant for poni poni.
