I bought Spore in the recent Steam sale, and playing it made me realize that I was basically anthropomorphizing this creature I had made.

Also, I think I accidentally created my new Fursona... :/

Anyways, anyone here play Spore?

Hi all,

I've been working on a fast, simple downloader for e621.net for about a month now, and it's come a long way thanks to feedback from all of you. For anyone unfamiliar with it, e621dl is basically a small tool that scrapes e621.net for you and downloads images (and swf) much faster than you could using a browser. There's a short readme here I suggest everyone at least look at.

I'm starting a new thread about it for three reasons:

1. A lot has changed since I initially posted about it, so I wanted to start fresh, instead of maintaining a thread with outdated information.
2. Create a single thread which anyone interested in future news can sticky and check back on from time to time. In other words, I don't plan on posting more threads, I'll just update this one.
3. e621dl now has a no-python required, stand-alone windows application, that even comes with an installer. I have tested it on Windows 7 and thought its marginally slower than just running python, you don't have to have Python installed to use it!

There have been plenty of other stability and speed improvements too that I won't get into here unless someone is curious.

Anyway, that's it. Just wanted to share the latest version and tell everyone to bookmark this thread (who bookmarks anything anymore???) for the latest news on new features and fixes for e621dl.

Thanks!

You start with a couple trying desperately to have a child ends up conceiving a full grown antelope instead of a baby.

Things go surprisingly well.

Hello,

Back in 2013 I posted here about a survey titled “Furry/FurFandom Digital Spaces”. This survey and any interviews which were carried out as a result of it, formed part of the research for my undergraduate geography dissertation for Keele University, UK.

I am this post now to thank those who took part for the contributions they made to the project. The final version of the report was submitted to the university in February 2014, after 14 months of work, which would not have been possible without the contributions that you all made, and for that I am eternally grateful.

Due to the way the system works it’s taken a while for me to be able to write this status update post and provide access to the report. The provisional mark for this project is 81%, and I hope I’ve done justice to the time the community has given me. The positive experience I have had working with the community on this project has made a huge impression and contributed towards my decision to pursue this kind of research further into postgraduate studies.

For those of you who wish to read about the project I’ve included the abstract in this email, which summarises the project and its conclusions. To read the full report please follow this link to my Academia.edu profile, which hosts the report for you to read at your leisure.

Finally I’d like to reiterate how reliant this project was on the community’s participation and to thank you for giving me the opportunity to work with your community. I sincerely hope I get the opportunity to do so again in the not too distant future.

Abstract

This project investigates the spatiality of digital community through the use of a case study on the Furry Fandom. Given the lack of geographic literature on digital spatiality it relies on work from other disciplines, supported by geographic theories of relationally constructed social space. The Furry Fandom is a predominantly digital community that has strong ties in physical space in the form of its convention culture, resulting in a more focused relationship between physical and digital space. The research was conducted using a survey and individual interviews with members of the community who were accessed through the communities digital spaces, since this gave access to the largest possible sample population. The technologies which enable the existence of digital space have enabled the Furries to exist since they provide a level of distance which allows individual’s constructed fursonas to come to the fore, interact and form community space. A combination of relational space theory and the spatial triad is used to illustrate the formation of the social space of the Furry community both within the physical and digital. The study’s overarching conclusion is that community social space has become much more imagined and abstract.

I have a friend who's terrified of furries after a fateful encounter on a stuck elevator, and I have yet to reveal to him that I am a furry. How should I calm his nerves enough to approach the subject?
