imagine working at a bank and someone comes in with a negative balance in their account and explains that it’s because they tried paying for a brony dating site
I’d like to think that it happens often lmao
oh they sometimes have much more embarrassing reasons than that, trust me.
And not only that they got scammed… but that they have three active full accounts.
Yeah I've seen similar things many times. Sometimes they were so embarrassed about whatever site/purchase it happened to be that when I would suggest initiating the dispute process they would just flat-out refuse, even if they got scammed for $500+.
I work for a bank and have seen weirder than that
Bro imagine marrying someone and possibly having kids with them thanks to the magic of friendship
'hey dad, how did you meet Mom' 'well son, I'll tell you when you get older'
I used to be involved in the fandom and honestly it wasn't unheard of. I remember several popular members of the community meeting their SO through the show and some ended up marrying. iirc two of them even held an open invite wedding to their fans as thanks for bringing them together. Cute stuff. Some guy proposed to his girlfriend at a panel and got a standing ovation from a room full of bronies.
Pretty sure that happened ngl
@@blackrosesthorn9451 That’s pretty wholesome actually
@@x_kittrix man it was. I used to watch their channels when the show was still running and when he proposed, everyone was just so happy for them 😊
My dad once said he was a brony in some attempt to seem 'hip with the kids'. He didn't actually know what it meant though.
Nice.
That’s kinda cute
He knew what it meant
Your ridicule made him pretend he didn’t
Lol did you tell him what it meant?
Online or IRL?
“Someone special is waiting to chat with you, Someone REAL special” sounded so threatening and I don’t know why.
I know, It's...just...threatening......
no bc the “AUGHEHE”
4:50
You know why, it’s just scary to acknowledge it.
I was thinking “I’M SPECIAL! DEDEDE! I WEAR A HELMET AND I DONT EVEN PLAY FOOTBALL!”
I can imagine crusty 30 year olds on the site hoping to match with a cute girl but they end up matching with each other
"you lied your not a 19 year old girl your just another cr33py 40 year old dude"
"don't feel bad this is the 40th time this happened"
The fat 40 y/o cis male loser bronies have a better chance of finding a soulmate at hot topic or spencers than a scam brony "dating" site. Probably not a cute young adult but at least someone out there is into that shit.
@Vvrai cis, straight men*
True. I’m a woman who used to be a MLP fan, and if that site existed during the height of my fascination with the show I’m pretty sure I would have avoided it
@@peachiequeen3897 Like yeah, most of us Pegasisters/female Bronies would rather stay away from dating sites like this. xD
Now I’m just imagine the cringey stuff in they bios involving horses like “just a stallion looking for his mare” and other things
I kid you not, that sort of bio exists on regular dating sites, usually by someone holding a fish in the pfp
@@thisisavivistanaccount7866 Its always the fish men!! Why is it always the fishing guys???
@@somethinginthepines
Man, I feel bad for the fishes
@@Orchidlettux Those poor fish have to be in a mans tinder bio
“Just a file looking for the zoo”
Imagine going bankrupt and having to explain to the bank it's because of a brony dating site 💀
That would’ve been so embarrassing for him lmao
Imagine finding out your parents met on a brony site
Uhm
“Alright, time to tell you about the bird and the bees. We call it alicorns and Pegasuses.”
guess thats why they broke up
The woman voicing the Bronymate trailer sounds like she's being held at gunpoint and i'm concerned, did she make it out alright?
Those yehaws where 100% a cry for help...🤠
The woman was given the script after saying yes to the job and wished to be dead from word 1
i choose to believe she did.
She sounds like she's trying to voice act an over-the-top cartoon Southern Belle while also being absolutely terrified for her life and trembling. I've never heard anything like that before in my life.
LET ME TELL YOU WHAT 🤠🔫
I like how that brony included that the bots were all above 7s, like they just knew there's no way these girls can be attractive AND be bronies
@@papaya216 Mean but a lot of times bots use sexy girls as pictures. Same with catfishers.
That part made me die lmao
Yeah. I guess there are some attractive male and female Bronies out there. But let's face it, those are mostly taken. :'D

@@someoninte456 ywnbaw
As a trans myself, lol, the "I am seeking: man, woman, trans" is so ridiculously funny to me. Like, "I am seeking one trans, please. Doesn't matter what kind, just one trans, thank you very much."
I can see them putting a "White" "Black" and "Mixed" option near the male, female and trans
"I'll have a trans please"
"ma'am this is a wendys"
Fellow trans person here! Yeah, I found it really funny too. It kinda shows you that they don't see trans people as valid, just a kink. Really frustrating and demeaning tbh.
@@talyngray "Excuse me!! He asked for one trans."
Hello welcome to chili's what can I get you?
A man woman trans please.
Just took a gender law and policy class and I actually know about that online sex trafficking law (FOSTA) and the reality is that the furry site shutting down doesn't necessarily mean that anything bad was going on there. They possibly just shut down for the same reason craigslist personals did, which was that the law now made website liable for what was posted there involving sex trafficking. Sounds like a good thing but in reality it ends up being bad for everyone involved. What happened was that lots of websites (or features) shut down out of an abundance of caution to not get sued and it made life for sex workers a lot harder. Instead of being to use the internet to find clients, most places to do that shut down and many sex workers had to go back on the streets or use pimps again to find clients, which makes their work a lot less safe. And then on the sex trafficking side it's actually become way harder to find people being trafficked because that stuff has been pushed deeper underground. Before, law enforcement was able to go through websites and locate people being trafficked but after this law it's been was harder to find them. This is truly a bad law for everyone and if the opportunity arises people should support repealing it.
was hoping someone would say this! understandable that izzy hasn't heard because she's not american but fosta has been nothing but a nightmare for queer people and sex workers
pretty much
any time some bill has a moral statement it it's title it's trying to do something messed up
@@johnsgoodboy sex workers are being exploited, so fosta is good. sex workers should get a new job. also sex is created for a husband and wife, not for random people to have sex and get paid then never see eachother again and just fuck a new person everytime.
Yeppppppppp
Can we get a site to find friends, like a dating site but just for friendship? As an Aromantic person I would greatly appreciate a site like that
Not even aroace but that sounds very nice, I hope someone does it
I agree we need one of those as someone on the aromantic and asexual spectrum :)
It's called social media
You can just use dating apps for this
There’s lots of apps like that but they usually get ruined by pedos
why would they call it bronymate if it’s not a MLM dating site… wouldn’t you call it ponymate????
Makes sense
Brony is technically a gender neutral term
@@Flutterlullaby was this how i got turned transmasc? /jk

Years ago I did MLP cosplays and attended ponycons as a guest and panelist. From time to time my friends and I were told our photos were being used on this site which led to us trying and failing to stop it from happening. At the beginning of 2020 I was reached out to on Instagram from the actual Bronymate account asking if they could use my photos, even offering to pay me for them until I shut them down with some choice words and they blocked me. This whole site was wild and so awkward to deal with as someone whose photos were consistently used. Had to turn down a handful of guys in my DMs and explain to them that they were catfished between 2015 and 2019.

Look, I know everybody’s heard horror stories of groups of fans doing immoral, “cringe”, and sometimes illegal things, or just starting civil wars or whatever, but these fans are always either individuals or small organized cliques of radicals that don’t represent the whole fandom. Every time such a story surfaces, the actions of the vocal minority are condemned by the 99% of good fans. (And by the way, arguing doesn’t make a fandom toxic. Arguing is healthy if handled well. If it isn’t handled well and emotions are taken too far, refer back to what I said about radical fans). Every fandom has a vocal minority, even if they don’t make headlines. You’re more likely to hear such stories from bigger communities, but the ratio of “crazy” to “normal” is the same across fandoms as per a statistical phenomenon called the Law of Large Numbers. People hate fandoms all the time, even though they most likely engage in fandoms themselves. Liking something makes you part of that fandom. And before you push up your anime glasses and tell me that “actually, fandom is short for ‘fanatic domain’ and I am a NORMAL fan, not a crazy fanatic”, may I remind you that denotation does not equal connotation, so while “fanatic” brings to mind images of crazy devotion, it’s just the long word for “fan”. Fan is short for fanatic (as per Oxford Dictionary, or Merriam-Webster, I don’t recall), like how rap is an acronym for “rhythm and poetry” but has become its own word. Also, a domain is just a group in the broadest possible sense, accurately capturing how large and diverse fandoms are. Therefore, a fandom is just all the fans of a specific thing. Your level of engagement in a fandom doesn’t determine how much of a fan you are. Fanartists depend on casuals who view their art, for instance. The masses are just as important as the creators. By hating fandoms, you’re also hating on people who have genuinely been helped by finding a sense of community by connecting with like-minded people. Fandoms don’t ruin things for you if you find the right people in said fandom to interact with. With bigger fandoms especially, it’s not hard. I get that negativity is stronger than positivity, but you’ve got to fight that internal conflict for your own good. It’s your fault that vocal minorities of weird fans are never recognized as such, and are instead chalked up to the whole group.
@@diamondminer5459 Absolutely
I was friends with people from the brony fandom for years
We grew apart as we grew up, I realized one of them was just weird and I couldn't take him seriously anymore
Than this year after I came out as trans, I found out one who I considered one of my closest friends was a transphobic fuck and basically treated me like shit after I came out. So yeah, watch who you're friends with

So this got thrown into my recommended videos, and I'd just like to add that a long time ago, back in 2014, someone affiliated with Bronymate sent me an email asking if I would like to do a "sponsor segment" for the website on one of my reviews. I was 13 at the time they sent me that email.

Made me cringe, I never say yeehaw
"brony dating site" automatically confuses me bc i need specific details. are you actually trying to get a date with another person w common interests? are you trying to find someone who'll have their pony oc/fursona/ponysona(?) "date" your pony oc/fursona/whatever? are you trying to date someone's ponysona? are you trying to roleplay? what is it?? what is the truth
Oh..god. you make so much more sense
Always feel like it's important to state that like, *most* hookup sites closed down after FOSTA/SESTA passed. It's the same reason Craigslist shut down it's personals section. It's not indicative of them being traffickers, the laws made websites that hosted material related to sex trafficking criminally liable for it on the same level as an intentional collaborator, regardless of the sites policies, moderation, or willingness to help law enforcement with discovered instances of sex trafficking. It also made no distinction between trafficking and consensual sex work, and the net result of it has only driven sex trafficking to harder to find places and made sex work more dangerous for sex workers.
Very informative and important info, this should have more attention.
The applejack (?) impersonater sounds like they have a gun trained to their head while they talk
Ah HA! I knew she was channeling Applejack!
they keep overusing the yeehaw too 😭

If you go one a dating site meant to connect you to someone who shares one interest then expect the relationship to fail.
Pretty scummy of them to exploit a large group of people that were probably feeling very lonely... I don't want to generalise and say all adult MLP fans were the socially awkward type, but I've seen quite a lot of those people. I hope they're happy nowadays.
I'm not...
@@oldreaddy3341 *hugs*
Well I can tell you I've been with my current partner for over 5 years and we met through the fandom. We're both autistic and what I would describe as socially awkward, but the fandom actually gave us a starting point to kick off of.
A lot of my friends have similar stories as well ^^
I can't get over the commercial. The actress mispronounced "brony" and nobody was like "let's have her do a second take"
What if that was the second take? Or even third take? That’s what deeply upsets me.
How disgusting. Scamming people who are looking for love is absolutely disgusting, only garbage human beings do that.
As someone who's trans myself, seeing "I am seeking: man, woman, trans" is so funny, like imagine minding your own business and someone comes up to you and says "I am looking for a trans. Just one trans, please."
"They were all above seven then it comes to looks". I can see why you would have to resort to brony date site, dude.

This whole bronymate situation reminds me of the furry dating website controversy. In fact they sound exactly the same, can’t read messages unless you pay a certain amount of money, most messages just being from bots, terrible advertising, and overall just being very scummy. I am heavily convinced that they are both made by the same people as that they just put on some different photos a different background and a different name and called it a day. Also the whole man woman trans thing offends me deeply.
Edit: I just saw that at 10:47 that they were heavily suspected for making the website that I was describing. I really am a dumb ass or raven from that so raven that’s your decision to make.

What can be said about the people behind Bronymate, Furrymate and Furfling is that they're most certainly the same group/organization. When checking out their registrar data on WHOIS, the three domains not only have the same small provider, but also the exact same contact information. The domains for Bronymate and Furfling were also updated on the same date (2022-03-18).
I mentioned this in my own comment just a few minutes ago, but I remember learning about how FurryMate had been subject to several court cases due to unauthorized charges being made to user’s cards etc. they had a thing in their TOS that effectively functioned as a contract, which allowed them to freely charge your card as they see fit, without providing you any services. From the sound of it, BronyMate was doing that exact thing. I had no idea that Furfling was part of the same company though, considering that it was advertised everywhere well after the FurryMate junk happened.

Ah yes, scamming desperate people out of their money, the only real "easy way to make money quick" =/ Like, yeah, bronies can be "cringe" (and what fandom doesn't have its fair share of those cases) but I still think there's a line between making fun of people and defrauding them. I mean, for a comparative example, it's the difference between Tumblr cringe compilations and dashcon. Both not the best humanity has to offer, but I think we can agree that one is worse than the other.

If it isn’t handled well and emotions are taken too far, refer back to what I said about radical fans). Every fandom has a vocal minority, even if they don’t make headlines. You’re more likely to hear such stories from bigger communities, but the ratio of “crazy” to “normal” is the same across fandoms as per a statistical phenomenon called the Law of Large Numbers. People hate fandoms all the time, even though they most likely engage in fandoms themselves. Liking something makes you part of that fandom. And before you push up your anime glasses and tell me that “actually, fandom is short for ‘fanatic domain’ and I am a NORMAL fan, not a crazy fanatic”, may I remind you that denotation does not equal connotation, so while “fanatic” brings to mind images of crazy devotion, it’s just the long word for “fan”. Fan is short for fanatic (as per Oxford Dictionary, or Merriam-Webster, I don’t recall), like how rap is an acronym for “rhythm and poetry” but has become its own word. Also, a domain is just a group in the broadest possible sense, accurately capturing how large and diverse fandoms are. Therefore, a fandom is just all the fans of a specific thing. Your level of engagement in a fandom doesn’t determine how much of a fan you are. Fanartists depend on casuals who view their art, for instance. The masses are just as important as the creators. By hating fandoms, you’re also hating on people who have genuinely been helped by finding a sense of community by connecting with like-minded people. Fandoms don’t ruin things for you if you find the right people in said fandom to interact with. With bigger fandoms especially, it’s not hard. I get that negativity is stronger than positivity, but you’ve got to fight that internal conflict for your own good. It’s your fault that vocal minorities of weird fans are never recognized as such, and are instead chalked up to the whole group.
Silence furry
@@JustifyTheseHeathens Tough words coming from somebody with an anime profile pic. Now that's just cringe bro :P
oh for sure, im still salty i felt the need to leave mlp as a whole when i was a teen girl who grew up with it tho so i lol
@@JustifyTheseHeathens bruh anime came outta the ass of a dude that drew rats, snakes, etc as sexy women. know your history king
I had an Anton Ego moment when I was listening to the background music and when I saw it was Petz Catz 2 (I played the dog version, it was basically the same game.) I had a blast from the past.
I'm gonna be honest- as a part of the teen/adult side of the mlp community (Specifically the art community), some of the things people here do are embarrassing af. I promise it's not all bad; the stupid, gross, and awful people are just a LOT louder than the rest of the community.
I get that, I'm a furry and I hate it when media portrays us as creepy, zoophilic weirdos when we're just a fun community trying to live life
@@ryebread908 Yeah exactly! I'm pretty supportive of the anthro community, and am part of it but it's not my main interest. Most of the community is extremely welcoming and kind, I've never even met a zoophile gross person yet. Sucks that outsiders only see the bad side.
I think I've been told in Insta comments that my opinion doesn't matter because I draw ponies 💀💀💀
can we talk about how amazing Izzys makeup always it
i know i would literally die to be able to do my makeup like her
Makes me wonder if she as a guide to it
@5:00 the trailer sounds like an Applejack impersonator being held at gunpoint and I don't know whether to be amused or concerned.
Both
Yee-haw! I sure hope this maa'm dont blown up my heaD with this big shotgun!
I love how just... Forced the voice actress for the trailer video for the site sounded, and how she basically just adlibed a bunch of applejack-esq cowgirl jargon and "Lemme tell yoo wut" and it just kept going like no one cared, like she just straight up sounded like she went off script half way through and just started rambling.
I know I’m watching this video 7 months late but I just have to say that I absolutely LOVE this look. The pink theme, the glitter, the neck chain, the headpiece. So stunning 😍
this title scares me more than the brony fandom itself
Much of the time, the dating portion of a fandom scares me the most, especially since you have no idea who's on the other end.
Often times it leads to disaster.
@@silverflight01 honestly, any dating-related part of a fandom (shipping, fans dating, etc.) are areas I want to stay FAR away from as well
Is there any version of the word "bronymate" that doesn't bring up thoughts of them wanting to kiss horses? HorseHounds? BarnBoys? GallopGuys? NaughtyNeighbors?
Those guys really can't win lol
UnitingUnicorns?
AHHH NAUGHTYNIEGHBORS Y E S
Tbh "horsehounds" just brings up an image of some half-horse half-dog creatures
@@peachiequeen3897 OK, BUT THAT ACTUALLY SOUNDS COOL
At least it would be a... stable relationship.
the fake southern accent in the ad is so bad it's good
honestly the most surprising part was finding out their social media pages are still active to this day???? usually with scams they shut everything down after a bit. i wonder why they kept this one up, the site for sure has to be dead especially since the original fandom boom is over
The most shocking part of this video is izzzyzz owns a skateboard and it doesn't have Garfield on it
That may be the case now, but that could change.
Uh oh, you probably just gave them an idea
Okay, but can we just appreciate the spikey head band for a sec, like- cmon.
I know I love it
The music you used the video awoke my nostalgia for the Petz Dogs 2 for the Wii
And that makes me happy :)
1:19 Please tell me where you got those slippers, my life will forever be incomplete without them
Did you get them?
@Kade-c0gh4 Unfortunately, I did not 😔
I can't believe they never used the term "Some-pony" in that awful commercial. lol
That's how you know it's a scam.
I got ads for this all over DeviantArt in the day. The funny thing is I didn’t even like MLP or look at MLP stuff, one of the people I watched on Deviantart used to post it but then moved to MikuMikuDance assets and I guess that’s why I got Bronymate ads?
"they were all women looking for men, and they were all above seven when it came to looks" what a gentleman , I'm in awe.
Theres always something so scummy about preying on people who might be suffering from extreme loneliness just because of how vulnerable people can be mentally when they feel so lonely.
Yeah, dating site scams and romance scams in general are something you have to be a terrible, terrible person to get into.
"I am seeking a: man/woman/trans"
bronymate said chaser rights
My god, hearing the Petz Catz 2 music in the background hit me with a sudden wave of nostalgia. That game had no business being as cool as it was.
8:30 this story sounds very fishy. if the site would automatically renew them and charge for a membership, why would they get another trial to restore access to the site - they still have access to the site and should have noticed something was wrong. I'm not defending the scam, but I don't think this person's story is truthful.
Izzy’s accent makes me think everytime she’s sponsored by “warmpeople” she’s saying “worm people” and I get disappointed there’s no worms
For most of the video. I was like, "BronyMate? Why does that sound so familiar?" Then you mentioned FurryMate, and I was like, "That's why."
I even saw that super low quality ad for furrymate literally just the other day. Always screamed "scam" to me. And well... Apparently that's exactly the case.
One time, my furry cousin looked for a gf on furrymate...
She still has her gf to this day.
Even furries had to deal with a scam site…
Is there no escaping scam sites?
I remember watching some youtuber troll on that site a few years back. I was even gonna mention furrymate until she did in the video.
Wonder if WeebMate exist too…
