Denver’s Fox Trot Club – Q&A for “The Furclub Survey”, from organizer Kelar.

Dogpatch Press - Mon 13 Oct 2014 - 09:15
Furclubbing:  “A repeat/regular nightclub event by furries for furries.”  It’s a New Thing that’s been spreading since the late 2000’s. This kind of dance party is independent from cons.  This builds on the growth of cons, and takes things farther.  It’s more established than events that happen once, house parties or informal meets.  Those can be inner-focused, […]

Lack of activity in the furry "sub-sub-reddits".

Furry Reddit - Mon 13 Oct 2014 - 07:29

No rant, just a personal suggestion. In our community we have other subreddits for people of different needs. That is okay however the activity seems to be really scarce to point there is literally a post ever other day unlike /r/furry which is everyday.

When we see good art of course it's going to be welcomed because it's appealing to the eyes however any "noob" art is banished to /r/furryartschool but how many users still lurk there on a daily basis? The same goes for subreddits like /r/anthro, /r/fursona, /r/feathery, /r/scaley, /r/furrywordsmith,/r/furrywallpaper, /r/footpaws, /r/furrycatwalk and etc. We have all of these sub reddits to cater to our needs but aren't staying dedicated to them.

I feel the species subs shouldn't exist for the fact that /r/furry welcomes all species naturally. The furry art school needs people to stay dedicated to the place in order to make better artists our people who want the help, I've been seeing a lot noob art lately with a few downvotes because they aren't where we'd like them to be but it's vacant. Do we really need /r/anthro? They are 99% the same thing. I feel it's there to exist for people who don't claim to be a furry but still like all the same things. I don't mind foot paw posts as long obvious yiff goes in /r/yiff. I'm conflicted about /r/furrycatwalk people post the same stuff here and it still does fine yet it's specifically for self advertisement. /r/furrywallpaper exists for wallpaper of course but it's simply not busy enough. /r/furrywordsmith is for our lovely writers yet I literally see posts once a month.

To simplfy it, personally we need to combine subreddits and drop others that simply do not get enough attention to stand on it's own. The ones that I feel should stay need more traffic through them so it's not a wasteland all the time. I wish something could be done about it so people arn't afraid to post in other subreddits because of the fear of not being seen.

Edit: Tl;Dr : We need new flairs and/or more traffic in the multireddits that we took the time to create.

PSA (?) : /r/FurryArtSchool is dead..

Furry Reddit - Mon 13 Oct 2014 - 07:10

Hi, on the past new days I have seen newbie arts posted here, and more often than not they are sent to /r/FurryArtSchool ..

I personally think the idea of /r/FurryArtSchool is very good, however it seems that there's just not enough people there and I think at this point, it is not helpful to try to send newbie arts to a dead subreddit

I know that the general consensus (according to this thread) is that people on this subreddit dislikes newbie arts..

As a new member of this subreddit, I don't think I am in any place to tell you guys what to do (thus my apologies for the things I am going to write).. but in my opinion we should welcome newbie arts here and perhaps we can add a "newbie art" flair so that people who don't like to see them can filter it out..

Conor: An innocent ten year-old boy, not unlike other boys anywhere . . . Purugama: Immense, powerful, magical, a towering champion of the crossworlds . . . A young boy subconsciously calls forth the power of the crossworlds creators. They send the mystical beast, Purugama, to accompany him on a fantastic journey.

His plans are interrupted when Drazian, Purugama’s mortal enemy, faces the immense cougar in a ferocious battle. The prize?

If You're Too Shy You Might Miss a Great Chance at Love

Ask Papabear - Sun 12 Oct 2014 - 19:36
Hello Papa Bear,

This is my first time asking you a question and I freaking luv your stuff!!

I'm a very shy fox who is lonely, I draw stuff because I luv to draw!!

Here's my question: I have a best friend (who is a male) who I know since 3 months ago. 2 months ago, It was his birthday and I gave him a best birthday ever! He loves my drawing of our fursona and I love his great attitude! We have alot in common and we both are Bi.

The problem is that i want to tell him that I "like" him, but he has "friends" and all of the left him and one died....

I want to be his partner, but i'm too shy to ask him and what if he said no. He is always getting lonely and i want him to feel better by being his partner.

What am i suppose to do? Do I tell him? Do i wait? or should i not tell him?

From, 
David, Little Fur

Hi, Little Fur,

I think you are overthinking things. If you truly love this guy and you like each other and have fun with each other and could both potentially be very close, then just tell him your feelings. I know you're afraid of scaring him away, but if you don't ask you'll never know. Perhaps he is feeling the same thing and is wondering if he should ask YOU! If neither of you say anything, then nothing will happen.

Sometimes, when you are too shy, you miss opportunities in life, and that would be a shame. Just be honest with the guy. Worst case scenario: he says he likes you but isn't in love with you. In which case, you'll know and you'll stop torturing yourself with what-ifs. If this happens, say that you understand and that you wish to continue the friendship as is.

Another thing that could happen is he might not be ready NOW but he might be LATER. So, keep yourself in the game. Be honest, and if the answer isn't quite what you wanted, don't pout and be a drama queen about it because that's a sure way to scare someone off. Keep your head on straight and continue the friendship.

And, if he DOES return the affection, you'll feel awesome and wonder why you waited so long to ask.

Wishing You Love,
Papabear
