My made up Brony tier system! · 10:14pm May 20th, 2014
Really this system could apply to any fandom, but for intents and purposes, I'm going to use examples relating strictly to Bronies.
Class E brony: High Casual
This type of brony has maybe watched a few episodes, looks at Brony pics and vids occasionally, comments ocassionally, but otherwise doesn't get too involved.
Class D brony: Casual Involved
This type of brony has watched at least a full season, recognizes a majority of the characters, and checks out brony material on a regular basis.
Class C brony: Involved
This type of Brony has watched a vast majority of the show and/or read some comics, may write fanfiction occasionally, may create art, make short animations, or may make music for the fandom itself.
Class B brony: High Involved
This type of Brony has seen every episode and/or read a lot of related comics, writes often, creates art often, makes animations, or makes music related to the show on a near daily basis. Has possibly attended conventions.
Class A brony: Fanatic
This type of brony has watched every episode multiple times, attended a convention or several, or contributes material to the fandom daily.
Note: for people who make video commentaries, they would fit into C or higher.
So, does anyone not agree with what I have here? I'd be glad to makes some changes for you, as these are just my opinions. ( And yes, I realize a 'low class' brony could have attended a convention.)
I would personally consider myself a Class B.
Me? Class C, even though I haven't watched much of Season 4.
It looks pretty good, I think I'd be a B to.
I'm a class B. Though I've seen every episode multiple times. Maybe a class B+?
I'd say separate the different characteristics of the tiers and give them each their own scales. For instance, there could be a super involved brony who attends conventions regularly, seen every episode so many times that he/she could recite them all from memory, and has read most of the official comics, but has yet to produce any material him/herself.
That aside, if you neglect the need to produce material himself, I'd say I'm a class B brony as well.
Also, what if you don't make much yourself, but you help a lot on others' work?
2129833 I used the word "or" a lot.
What level am I?
2129907 That is for you to decide, not me.
Class C definitially.
2129833
I'd say you contribute still. Helping is still a contribution to the fandom.
2130131 It's kind of implied.
I'm a Class C
High class C
Oh, and I have a system of ranking I use that is based on the 3x3 alignment chart from Dungeons and Dragons, as well as Let's Go and Meet the Bronies and a Saberspark guide video.
I will make a blog about it later.
I might fit somewhere between C and B.
I've watched every episode, some of the seasons I've watched more than once. Some episodes, like 'Luna Eclipsed', I've watched more than others.
I don't write fanfiction on a daily basis, and churning out works on a daily basis, would be impossible for me. I've got fics that I've been working on during the past year, but nothing completed.
I don't read the comics, but I intend to eventually. As for right now, It would be too much to focus on in terms of fic-writing.
I occasionally inspect the quality of the toys (hair is all wrong) and flip through certain books at my retail job, but I make sure to not be seen doing this. I don't buy pony merchandise, and I keep the fact that I'm an MLP fan, to myself.
Most people known me is an alcoholic metal-head who plays a lot of videogames. The fact that I'm a brony, is my dark little secret.
2130560 Sounds like a B to me (and strangely similar to myself).
Wich class should I belong?
- Whatched all the episodes multiple times.
- Read all the comics.
- Read tons of fimfics.
- Don't like the official toys, but buys expensive 3D printed pony figures.
- Don't create any form of art, because I suck at it.
- Hate EQG.
- Haven't attended to any convention, It haven't done in my country.
Maybe something related to A or B but not that much. I don't know.
2130698 A bit of an odd case. I'd rate you as a B.
2130667
I forgot to mention that aside from reading fics, my brother and I watch a lot of PMV's. Particularly, while drunk or high.
My favorite PMV is, You Think you Know, a David Draiman/Device (the vocalist is known from Disturbed) song that is paired up with scenes from 'Princess Twilight Sparkle.'

YAY,
I'm probably a class B as well, and by the end of the summer probably an A since I'll be going to a few conventions...
I think this list works perfectly
Class C I think.
Imma say a Class D if along a lower Class C tier lol
