Are the folks involved in the MWFF leak ok?

Furry Reddit - Sun 7 Dec 2014 - 09:06

There's a lot of news going around about that Chlorine leak at the Hyatt hotel at MWFF that happened lasg night. Apparently, some people were hospitalized when they complained about dizzyness. All I want to know is, are they alright? If anyone knows them, tell them that I'm giving them my best wishes! Thank you!

Edit: Apparently the source pointing to an AC malfunction was discredited? Thats just wrong. I'm sure the police will catch the purp though. Hopefully there won't be an incident like this in the future, and not a whole lot of drama.

New(ish) to furry fandom (help!)

Furry Reddit - Sun 7 Dec 2014 - 08:15

I'm a 26 y.o./bi/w/m, and I've become more and more interested in fur as time has gone by. I don't really know a whole ton about the whole fur community, nor how I'd fit into it. I know that I wouldn't be into the whole fursuit situation, but I love ears and tails, and I'm pretty into the anthropomorphic art I've seen.

I'd like to explore my interest in this more deeply, and I'd be interested in finding an artist to make a fursona (depending on cost.)

Thanks for your help r/furry! :D

Thank you all so much! (To all the MWFF goers out there)

Furry Reddit - Sun 7 Dec 2014 - 03:14

Thank you so much, I went for the day today and I had one of the best times of my life! It was my first con, so needless to say i was a little nervous, but it was so wonderful, I got my first commission there and got to see some great suits, great art, and such a wonderful crowd!

I brought my mate and although she is a furry, she was not as into the fandom as me, and being unused to the idea of cons she was nervous, but everyone there was so open and kind that she felt right at home and suddenly we were having the time of our lives. So many great things going on, even for just the day! I couldn't imagine what it would have been like to stay for all three days. But all in all thank you all, there is no fandom out there that is more kind and welcoming than ours, and it really shows!

Your Midwest furry, Leo

Chemical leak, MFF has been evacuated

Furry Reddit - Sun 7 Dec 2014 - 03:13

There has been a chemical leak in the Hyatt Regency Hotel and all attendees have been evacuated.

I have no confirmation of anything beyond a chemical leak, but I have heard chlorine mentioned several times.

Almost everyone is okay - if you're worried about someone make sure to contact them. Unfortunately, I did see an ambulance drive away with some attendees inside.

Edit: 2:30 AM I now have confirmation that it indeed was a chlorine leak.

Edit two: 4:30 AM we have been allowed back into our rooms!

Sleeping Birdy

In-Fur-Nation - Sun 7 Dec 2014 - 02:23

The artist Nic Gregory recently emigrated from Australia to the United States — and in the middle of it, found time to complete an illustrated book project: Sleeping Beauty, re-imagined with birds. Amy Gregory wrote the adaptation, and Nic created the full-color artwork. Now the completed hardcover is available at Nic’s web site, along with examples of his animation art and character design. Interesting trivia: Nic is a former hip-hop musician, and a former pro wrestler — who even had his own action figure.

Help a furry out?

Furry Reddit - Sun 7 Dec 2014 - 00:04

Hi, I'm strata, I've been around this community for a while, (not reddit), and I don't have any artwork of my 'sona. This is due to my lack of artistical talent and a lack of money for artwork. so I was wondering if any helpful fur out there could quickly whip up any artwork for me please.

My 'sona is a tall-ish neon blue male fox with a darker color on the back and lighter on the front. I have a fluffy tail and a tab bit of a muscular build. If you do draw my 'sona please make my mouth smirking in wither a playful way or a sly way.

Any artwork would do, even if it a sketch. Thank you furry friends! >w~

I am doing research on the furry fandom! Please help me out by completing this short survey.

Furry Reddit - Sat 6 Dec 2014 - 20:00

Hey guys. Due to the huge response to the "Why are you a furry?" thread I posted the other day, I was hoping you'd have the same sort of enthusiasm towards my research.

Here is the link to the survey. It is only 24 questions. All help is appreciated!

Edit: Please feel free to share this with your furry friends. It takes less than five minutes to complete.
